Location permissions
Lokly is built around nearby discovery, local communities, and hyperlocal activity.
Some platform experiences may use location-related information to help surface more relevant content, Signals, businesses, alerts, and nearby updates.
Location permissions may affect how certain features function across the platform.
Some experiences may vary depending on:
- device settings
- browser permissions
- app version
- account type
- rollout stage
- supported regions
How location is used
Lokly may use approximate or selected location information to:
- personalize local feeds
- improve nearby discovery
- surface relevant Signals
- show area-based updates
- recommend nearby businesses or creators
- improve local relevance
Some features may continue working with limited functionality if location permissions are disabled.
Area-based experiences
Lokly currently focuses on local and nearby experiences.
Depending on your setup, the platform may use:
- selected areas
- city information
- approximate location
- manually entered location details
to improve local content visibility and recommendations.
Area support and location-based experiences may expand over time as Lokly evolves.
Device and browser permissions
Location permissions are managed through your device or browser settings.
If location access is denied:
- some nearby recommendations may become less accurate
- local Signals may be limited
- certain discovery experiences may change
- some nearby alerts may not appear
You can update location permissions at any time through supported device or browser controls.
Signals and nearby alerts
Some Signals and Live Alerts may use nearby relevance systems to determine visibility and notifications.
Depending on your settings, Lokly may use location-related information to:
- surface urgent local activity
- improve nearby recommendations
- reduce unrelated alerts
- improve local feed relevance
Notification behavior may vary depending on:
- notification preferences
- platform version
- supported areas
- nearby activity levels
Privacy and safety
Lokly is designed to prioritize local relevance while continuing to improve privacy and safety systems.
Some location-related systems may use:
- approximate areas
- selected locations
- generalized nearby activity
instead of precise real-time tracking.
Location systems and privacy controls may continue evolving as the platform expands.
Feature availability
Location-based features, Signals, recommendations, and nearby experiences may vary depending on:
- your region
- account type
- app version
- rollout stage
- supported platform features
Lokly is continuously evolving over time.
