Privacy Policy

We may collect information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect includes:

• Personal Data: When you register using Google, we collect personally identifiable information such as your name, email address, and profile picture that you voluntarily give to us.
• Location Data: We request access to your location data (either from your browser or from text input) to provide our core service: finding relevant spots and events near you.
• User-Generated Content: We collect the information you provide when using our features. This includes saved spots, reviews, personal notes, uploaded photos/videos, and the details of any plans you create (Daily, Group, or Conditional Planners). Your interactions with the AI Concierge and community feed are also collected.
• AI Profile Data: To provide a personalized experience, our AI generates a profile for you based on your saved spots and interactions. This includes a summary of your inferred preferences and interests. You can view this AI-generated profile on your profile page.
• Derivative Data: Our servers automatically collect information like your IP address and browser type. This also includes data from your interactions with our AI features, which we use for analysis and service improvement.

Having accurate information about you permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you to:

• Create and manage your account.
• Personalize your app experience, such as generating an "AI Top Pick" in search results.
• Power our AI features, including the Daily Planner, Group Planner, Conditional Planner, and AI Concierge.
• Generate and refine your personal AI profile to improve the relevance of recommendations, content, and advertisements.
• Enable user-to-user communications within features like public plans and the community feed.
• Monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve your experience with the application.
• Notify you about your saved plans when conditions (like weather) are met.

We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations. Your information may be disclosed as follows:

• By Law or to Protect Rights: If we believe the release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, to investigate or remedy potential violations of our policies, or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others, we may share your information as permitted or required by any applicable law.
• Third-Party Service Providers: We share information with third parties that perform services for us. This includes Google (for Google Maps, Firebase, and Gemini AI services) and OpenWeatherMap (for weather data).
• Community Features: When you post recommendations, create a public plan, or interact with the community feed, other users of the application will be able to see your name, profile picture, and the content you have shared.
• Business Partners: We may share your AI-generated profile (which does not contain your name, email, or photo) with our business partners to offer you relevant promotions and advertisements.
