Frequently Asked Questions
常見問題
What is Location-Aware Browsing?
什麼是地理定位功能?
Websites that use location-aware browsing will ask where you are in order to
bring
you more relevant information, or to save you time while searching. Let’s say
you’re
looking for a pizza restaurant in your area. A website will be able to ask you
to
share your location so that simply searching for “pizza” will bring you the
answers
you need... no further information or extra typing required.
使用地理定位功能的網站可以詢問您所在的地理位置,以提��
�更有用的資訊,或是節省您搜尋的
時間。例如,您在找一間附近的比薩店,網站可以直接向您��
�問地理位置,這樣您只要搜尋「比
薩」就能找到解答 ... 不需輸入更多細節或是其他關鍵字。
Or, if you’re mapping out directions to get somewhere, the website will know
where
you’re starting from so all you have to do is tell it where you want to go.
或是,您在規劃如何到某處的路線,網站會知道您要從哪出��
�,您只要輸入您要去哪裡即可。
This service is totally optional – Firefox doesn’t share your location
without your
permission – and is done with the utmost respect for your privacy. And, like
all
elements of Firefox, it’s being created using open standards to ease adoption
by Web
developers.
這個服務完全是自願性的 —— Firefox
不會沒有得到您的允許就透露您的地理位置 —— 完全尊重
您的個人隱私。而且,就像 Firefox
的其他元件一樣,這個功能也是使用開放標準開發,使網站
開發者能輕易的採用。
How does it work?
它是怎麼運作的?
When you visit a location-aware website, Firefox will ask you if you want to
share
your location.
當您瀏覽到具有地理感知功能的網站時,Firefox
會向您詢問您是否想要透露您的地理位置。
If you consent, Firefox gathers information about nearby wireless access points
and
your computer’s IP address. Then Firefox sends this information to the default
geolocation service provider, Google Location Services, to get an estimate of
your
location. That location estimate is then shared with the requesting website.
若您同意,Firefox 會收集附近的無線網路狀況與您的電腦的
IP 位址。接著,Firefox 會將此
資訊傳送給預設的地理定位服務提供者 Google Location Services
供其估計您的地理位置。估
計結果會再傳送給詢問的網站。
If you say that you do not consent, Firefox will not do anything.
如果您不同意,Firefox 不會進行任何動作。

How accurate are the locations?
地理位置估計會有多準確?
Accuracy varies greatly from location to location. In some places, our service
providers may be able to provide a location to within a few meters. However, in
other
areas it might be much more than that. All locations returned by our service
providers are estimates only and we do not guarantee the accuracy of the
locations
provided. Please do not use this information for emergencies. Always use common
sense.
準確程度隨著地點不同有很大的差異。在某些地方,地理定��
�服務可以定位到數公尺的誤差。然
而,在其他地方準確度會遠大於此。所有服務提供者所回傳��
�地理定位資訊都是估計值,且我們
不保證它的準確性。請不要使用此服務作為緊急使用。請永��
�保持判斷地點的常識。

Am I being tracked as I browse the web?
我瀏覽網路的時候會被跟蹤嗎?
No. Firefox only requests a location when a website makes a request, and only
shares
your location when the user has approved the request. Firefox does not track or
remember your location as you browse.
不會。Firefox

在您瀏覽時,不會追蹤或是記錄您的地理位置。
