   A watermark is added to the image, if your administrator has configured it. The watermark includes the current date and time, UTC offset, and the latitude and longitude. The date and time are recorded in the your time zone and displayed in the format configured for you. Further, you must select the location service on your mobile device for the watermark to be added. If you open the application on a browser, you must select the permission to track the geolocation on for the environment.
