Privacy Policy

Overview

TravelSage is a collaborative travel planner. You can create trips, invite co-travellers, build day-by-day itineraries, track expenses and attach booking documents. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it and the choices you have.

Information we collect

• Account details: your email address, display name and, optionally, a profile picture. If you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address and profile picture from Google.
• Trip content you add: trips and destinations, dates, activities, notes, packing lists, expenses and budgets, cover photos and uploaded booking documents.
• Collaboration data: the email addresses you invite to a trip, and the role (owner, editor or viewer) each member holds.
• Preferences: your home currency and light/dark theme choice.
• Technical data: the basic request information (such as IP address and browser type) that our hosting and database providers log to run and secure the service.

How we use your information

• To create and secure your account and sign you in.
• To provide the service: storing, displaying and syncing your trips with the people you share them with.
• To send invitation and account emails (for example trip invites and password resets).
• To keep the service working, prevent abuse and fix problems.

We do not sell your personal data and we do not show advertising.

Google user data

If you choose “Continue with Google”, we request only your basic profile: your name, email address and profile picture. We use this solely to create and identify your TravelSage account. We do not access your Google contacts, calendar, Drive, Gmail or any other Google service, and we do not share Google user data with third parties except the service providers listed below that are needed to run TravelSage.

TravelSage's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Who can see your data

• Trip members: people you invite can see the trip content allowed by their role. Your personal packing list and personal expenses are visible only to you.
• Share links: if you turn on sharing for a trip, anyone with the link can view a read-only version of it without signing in. You can turn sharing off, or regenerate the link, at any time in the trip settings.

Service providers

We use a small number of providers to run TravelSage. They process data only on our behalf:

• Supabase — authentication, database and file storage.
• Resend — delivery of invitation and account emails.
• Vercel — application hosting.
• Google — optional sign-in, if you choose it.

These providers may process data outside the UK and EEA under appropriate safeguards.

Cookies and local storage

We use only what is necessary to run the service: cookies that keep you signed in, and local storage that remembers your theme preference. We do not use advertising or third-party analytics cookies.

How long we keep data

We keep your data while your account is active. Deleting a trip removes its activities, notes, expenses and attachments. If you ask us to delete your account, we will remove your personal data, except where we must keep something to meet a legal obligation.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict how we use it, and to complain to your data protection authority (in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office). You can edit your profile in Settings. For anything else, including account deletion, contact support@travelsage.app.

Security

Data is transmitted over HTTPS and access to trip data is restricted to authenticated members. No online service is completely secure, so please use a strong, unique password.

Children

TravelSage is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it last changed. Continued use of TravelSage after an update means you accept the revised policy.
