I have to utilize a GPS tracking app for work. Essentially, it is only for mileage reibursement reasons... I am able to manually exit the application and it will record the event log of being exited, but will no loner track.

I noticed it was tracking me while on a personal family trip to another city this weekend, and when I dug a little deeper, it turns out that the application automatically starts in the background whenever I reboot (auto on/off as well as my 8330 freezes frequently so I have to reboot).

Problem is, if I am not working or using it for mileage, I dont have to be tracked.. so I prefer not to. The problem is that when I HAVE to reboot, it auto starts up, and shoots my location info to the server...

Can I edit the permissions of the app to stop it from auto starting? Where would I change that to deny?

I suspect if the setting exists, it is going to be in options/settings in the application's menu. But I would bet it doesn't exist. Your work around is probably to exit when you don't need it. Or use a personal blackberry and leave the employer's blackberry full power off at the office, home, or vehicle when you are not working, unless you are on call.
