Obtaining the [Location] permission
In order to enable the Wi-Fi safety check, the [Location] permission must be enabled.
The [Location information] permission is used to check the safety of the Wi-Fi connection when using bank applications, etc. via Wi-Fi connection.
This permission is not used to acquire location information such as GPS.
We recommend that you enable the permission if you use a Wi-Fi connection such as a bank application.
Also, even if the [Location] permission is not enabled, protection functions other than the Wi-Fi safety check are still enabled.
■ App permission check
We judge the behavior of the app and the data communication destination, and notify you of a warning if there is a risk of personal information leakage.
