The provision establishes TikTok Ads' operational authority to collect location data across three distinct pathways—automatic collection from network identifiers, device-based collection when enabled, and user-initiated location tagging—enabling location-based targeting and analytics capabilities. The authorization applies unless users affirmatively disable location services through their device settings.
This provision establishes that location data, including precise GPS location where device permissions allow, is collected and available for use in advertising targeting, personalization, and other purposes described in the policy. Location data combined with behavioral and identity data can enable granular profiling.

The provision creates a tiered data collection framework: ambient location data flows automatically from device settings, while precise location tracking requires affirmative user authorization. This structure governs the scope of location information available to the platform.
The provision establishes a tiered authorization framework for location data collection: precise location requires affirmative user consent for designated features, while other location collection methods (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cell tower, IP-based inference) operate under the general data collection authorization. This structure defines the scope of location-related data available to Apple's services.
Location data collection establishes a mechanism for Pinterest to correlate user behavior with geographic information, enabling both operational service delivery and targeted advertising based on geographic signals. This data collection occurs through multiple technical pathways with different precision levels.
