The Ostia app will ask for your GPS position - However the data will not be stored or in anyway shared with external parties. The app will work without the GPS turned on, but then it will not show your position on the maps.

The Ostia app has no “add-ons” or "in app purchases", so all the features will be yours without extra fees. The app is ongoing being updated and new features released.
