Google geo api: How to handle if the client denied permission

    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(
      function(pos) {
        var fullpos = new google.maps.LatLng(pos.coords.latitude, pos.coords.longitude);
        computePartners(fullpos);
      }
    );

is what I have. It executes computePartners() if the client has allowed access for knowing where he is (getting clients physical position). But if it has not, I would like to make output an alert('Error'), example. How can i do this?

I use this code for geolocation:

if(navigator.geolocation) {
    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(position) {
        // ok           
    }, function(error) {
        if(error.code == 0){
        // unknown error
        } else if(error.code == 1) {
        // permission denied
        } else if(error.code == 2) {
        // position unavailable
        } else if(error.code == 3) {
        // timeout
        }
        console.log(error.message);
    }, {
        enableHighAccuracy: true, 
        maximumAge: 30000,
        timeout: 10000    
    });
} else {
         // browser do not support geolocation
}
