Your privacy matters

We don't collect personal data or track your usage across the web.

When you use the "Use current location" feature, your location is only used to calculate sun exposure and is never stored on any servers.

Your journey inputs (start, destination, mode) are processed in real-time and discarded after generating your recommendation.

We store your preferences (like temperature units, time format) only on your device using local storage.

Anonymous feedback (thumbs up/down) is stored to improve recommendations. No personal data is attached.

Recent routes are stored locally on your device only — never sent to our servers.

Google Maps API — for routes and places

Open-Meteo API — for weather data

Google Analytics — to understand usage patterns

Vercel Analytics — for performance optimization

None of these services receive personally identifiable information from us.

We use a single session cookie (ss_session) for feedback deduplication. This prevents duplicate votes and contains no personal data.

Your preferences are stored in localStorage, not cookies.

We don't use tracking cookies or third-party advertising cookies.

All server-side data is stored in Supabase with Row-Level Security enabled.

Route hashes are generated using HMAC-SHA256 with a server-only secret — they cannot be reversed to reveal your actual route.

We never store raw origin, destination, coordinates, IP addresses, or any personally identifiable information.
