Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 12, 2026

What we collect

  • Account data. If you create an account we store your email address, display name, and a hashed password. If you sign in with Google we receive your name, email address, and profile picture from Google — nothing else.
  • Saved places. Places you save are stored with your account so they appear on your Saved page.
  • Usage analytics.We measure page views and feature usage to understand what's useful. Two tools do this: a self-hosted, cookieless tool (Aptabase) that stores no IP address or identifier and never leaves our own server; and Google Analytics 4, which sets analytics cookies and processes traffic data on Google's infrastructure (GA4 does not store full IP addresses, and we do not enable Google Signals, ads personalization, or cross-site advertising). You can opt out of Google Analytics with Google's browser opt-out add-on.
  • Route requests. When you plan a trip, the origin coordinates you provide (or your approximate location, if you grant the browser permission) are used to compute the route and briefly cached in anonymized form (rounded geohash) to speed up repeat requests. They are not linked to your account.

What we do not do

  • No advertising and no ad trackers — we do not enable Google Signals or ads personalization.
  • No selling of your personal data, ever.
  • No precise location storage — geolocation is used in the moment to plan a route, never persisted with your identity.

Third-party services

Google Sign-In (when you choose it) and Google Analytics 4 are both provided by Google and subject to Google's privacy policy. Weather and air-quality panels query public US government APIs (NWS, AirNow) with place coordinates only. Photos and map data come from Wikimedia Commons, OpenStreetMap, and public transit agencies, credited on each page.

Deleting your data

You can delete your account and everything attached to it (saved places, sessions) at any time from your account page — the deletion is immediate and permanent. Without an account, nothing we store identifies you.
