Privacy policy
Last updated: June 1, 2026
Privacy is important to us, and we are committed to taking care of the information you store and create by using the Norgeskart friluftsliv solution and ensure privacy, accessibility and confidentiality.
This statement tells you about what information we collect and the purpose of this, how this information is used and what rights you have.
Responsibility and contact
Ture Apps AS owns and operates the Norgeskart friluftsliv solution. This includes the Norgeskart friluftsliv (Outdoor) app and the map portal norgeskart.avinet.no. We, by the CEO, have the responsibility for handling your personal information when you visit or use our services.
The information is processed in accordance with the requirements of the Personal Information Act.
You can contact us by email to support@ture.no, or send a letter to Ture Apps AS, Grindbakkveien 15, 3530 Røyse, Norway, if you have questions or comments about this statement or how we process personal information.
Personal information
In the Norgeskart friluftsliv solution from Ture Apps AS we handle the following personal information:
Name
Your name is registered when you log in with your Google account or when you register a user account using e-mail and password. You can later change your name if you log in to the map portal norgeskart.avinet.no.
We use the name to enable us to identify you, for example, when you contact us and use a different email address than the one you have registered in the solution.
County
If you create a profile linked to your user account, you will be asked to enter your county.
County is used in connection with filtering result lists when checking in at hiking destinations.
Municipality
If you create a profile linked to your user account, you will be asked to enter your municipality.
Municipality is used in connection with filtering result lists when checking in at hiking destinations.
E-mail address
The Norgeskort friluftsliv solution uses your email address to log in. The email address must be a valid email address.
We may use the email address to send you information when necessary or strictly relevant to your use of Norgeskart friluftsliv.
We may also use your email address if we have questions related to information or photos you have registered for a hiking destination.
Password
In the map portal, as well as the Norgeskart friluftsliv app for iOS, you must set a password to log in.
Location
Two of the main features of Norgeskart friluftsliv is to show you your location on a map and to record tracks. The location is only used locally, and we do not share your location with anyone.
You have the ability to center the map on your location, turn on track log (record where you move) and register points, lines or polygons you may want. These are initially stored on your mobile device only.
You can choose whether you want to upload track logs and registered points, lines and polygons to the map portal. These will then be stored in our systems, associated with your user. The data you have uploaded is made available to you in the map portal norgeskart.avinet.no, as well as for later download to your mobile devices.
Position is also used locally to see if you are closer to a destination than 50 meters. This is only done in connection with checking in at a hiking destination if you have activated destination check-in.
If you choose to register new hiking destinations or submit photos related to existing destinations, your position at the time of capturing the photo will be added as information. The position is only used as an aid for Ture Apps AS when approving destinations and photos. It is not available to other users.
Google analytics
The Norgeskart friluftsliv apps and the map portal norgeskart.avinet.no do not use Google Analytics.
Payment information
If you purchase a subscription for Norgeskart friluftsliv, this purchase will be done through Google Play Store. All payment information is handled by the stores and is not available to us. We only get transaction information, as well as information that an email address has purchased subscription for a year from a given date. A reference to the transaction is stored in the map portal associated with your user.
Cookies and locally stored data
The map portal norgeskart.avinet.no uses like most other websites cookies and locally stored data. This is text that is added to your browser’s internal memory when visiting or interacting with a website.
Cookies and locally stored data from us are necessary to provide you with a good user experience.
Personal information about minors
No information about age is collected when registering a Norgeskart friluftsliv user account. Norgeskart friluftsliv therefore does not knowingly process information about children under the age of 15. When registering a profile linked to a user account, age or date of birth is not collected, but the user confirms that the person in question is older than 15 years.
Electronic marketing / information
We do not use profiling as a method of marketing our services. All information about new products and services from us is provided to you solely on the basis that you use the Norgeskart friluftsliv solution.
As long as you have an active customer relationship with us, that is, using our products and services, we will be able to send you information by email that is strictly relevant to the use of these products and services.
Access to the information
To ensure that the processing of information with us is done safely, only employees in Ture Apps AS and our provider Avinet AS (IT services) have access to the information you provide us. Access to information is ensured with access control mechanisms.
We will not disclose, sell, distribute, rent, license, share or forward information or personal information about you to anyone unless we have an expressly consent from you.
Data processors and transmission of information to foreign countries
Avinet AS has entered into a data processing agreement with anyone who processes personal information on behalf of us. They may not process your personal information in any other way than described in this statement. We do not transfer personal data to countries outside the EU / EEA.
Your rights
You have the right to access your own information (this is available through the Norgeskart friluftsliv solution). If your personal information is incorrect, incomplete or there is no access to processing them, you may also request us to correct the information. See contact information initially in this statement.
We do not process and store information about you longer than you may wish. You can delete your user account from the settings in the app when you are logged in. All your registered information and data is then deleted from the server the following night (norwegian time).
If you believe we treat personal information in violation of laws and regulations, you can file a complaint with The Norwegian Data Protection Authority (www.datatilsynet.no).
Questions or requests for access or deletion can be sent to us, contact information given initially.
