GoMatters

GoMatters is an application designed to help users understand the significance of their location data and how it can be used to infer personal information. The app provides a platform for users to review and manage the personal data associated with the places they visit. By leveraging location tracking, GoMatters can extract and present users with insights into their interests, habits, and other personal attributes derived from their mobility patterns.

Key features of the app include its ability to continuously collect location data, match visited places with relevant personal information, and offer users a timeline view of their daily activities. Users can review and provide feedback on the accuracy and privacy sensitivity of the inferred personal data, helping to refine the app's understanding of their preferences and privacy concerns. This feedback mechanism allows users to engage actively with their data, ensuring that the information presented is both relevant and respectful of their privacy.

The app's functionality is built on a framework that utilizes open-access databases to categorize places and infer personal attributes. This approach enables GoMatters to provide users with a comprehensive overview of how their location data can be interpreted and used, promoting awareness and control over personal information in the digital age. By focusing on transparency and user engagement, GoMatters aims to enhance users' understanding of location-based data collection and its implications for privacy and personal data management.
