About

THANKS Map

Features
Read full description

THANKS Map is a map for recording the goodwill you meet in your town, right where it happened. What you can do - Mark a thank-you: leave a few words at the spot where someone returned the pass you dropped - Lost and found: quietly let others know what you lost, or what you picked up - Looking out for each other: "there is a step here, please take care" as concern, never as blame - Signposts for travellers: tell people passing through what a place can offer them - Postcards: turn the words you left into an image and share it What this app does not have - No scores, no stars, no rankings, no negative reviews. A thank-you either exists, or it does not - We will never build a way to put a shop or a person down How location is used (written precisely) - The location of a record you leave is stored and made public, so that it can appear on the map - Your device's current position is used only to check that you were there. That value itself is not stored - Your account ID is never shown on public screens - You can write anything in the text, so we ask you not to write personal information Privacy Policy: https://thanksmap.jp/thanks-map-privacy.html Terms of Use: https://thanksmap.jp/thanks-map-terms.html Operated by abc Inc. / METABIT
