Description of Service

OnlineCompass.me is a free online compass application that provides directional information using your device's sensors. The Service accesses your device's compass, GPS, and motion sensors to display directional data, geographic coordinates, altitude, and related information.

Required Permissions

To provide its core functionality, the Service requires access to the following device capabilities:

  • Location services (to determine geographic position)
  • Compass and magnetometer sensors (to determine direction)
  • Motion and orientation sensors (to detect device movement and positioning)

You may need to grant explicit permission for the Service to access these capabilities when prompted by your browser. The Service may have limited functionality if these permissions are denied.

Accuracy and Limitations

While we strive to provide accurate directional information, the Service relies on the quality and calibration of your device's sensors. The accuracy of the compass readings may be affected by:

  • Proximity to magnetic fields or metallic objects
  • The quality of your device's sensors
  • Environmental conditions
  • Device calibration status
  • Indoor vs. outdoor usage
