Provided is a method and apparatus for location sharing as a function of time and location. Privacy can be a concern when providing location information. Existing rules for location sharing are typically limited to either allowing or not allowing a user to obtain location information. In accordance with an embodiment of the disclosure, location sharing for a mobile device can be limited based on time and location of the mobile device. For example, location information of the mobile device might be provided to another device only during regular business hours when the mobile device is in a vicinity of an office site. Thus, the mobile device does not share its location information with the other device outside of business hours or when the mobile device is not in the vicinity of the office site.
