  • information about the device (manufacturer's name, model, etc.) - classification and analysis of results in statistical reports,
  • user's location identifiers (fine from the device or approximate based on GeoIP) - choosing the best measurement server, marking the results on an interactive map in the application, creating aggregated maps of cellular network coverage and speed.

The above data may be processed (including collecting) even when the application is closed or not used in order to increase the accuracy of the created maps.

V-SPEED may share this data to the following third-parties for the indicated purposes:

  • Internet access service providers - analysis and improvement of the quality and speed of provided Internet connections along with potential possibility of identifying the user solely for the purpose of solving problems with the user's Internet connection,
