Privacy Policy
Last Updated: April 9, 2025 (Adjust this date)
Welcome to Vagabond Travel App! This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our mobile application (the "App").
1. Information We Collect
To provide the App's features, we may collect and store the following information:
Trip Information: Details you provide for your trips, such as trip name, dates, destinations, points of interest saved, notes, and checklists.
Profile Information: Information you provide in your profile, such as your nationality (used, for example, to help set your home currency).
Usage Data: We may collect anonymous, aggregated data about how the App is used (e.g., feature usage frequency) to help us improve the App. This data is not linked to individual users.
Information Collected by Service Providers: We use third-party services, specifically Google Firebase, to help operate our App (e.g., for backend infrastructure, potentially analytics and crash reporting). Google may collect certain data as described in their privacy policy.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect solely for the following purposes:
- To provide and maintain the core functionality of the App (e.g., storing your trip details so you can access them).
- To personalize certain features (e.g., using nationality for currency settings).
- To understand basic App usage patterns and improve the App's performance and features (using anonymous data).
- To ensure the App's stability and troubleshoot issues (potentially using data collected by Firebase, like crash reports).
We do not monitor the specific content of your trip details or notes. We do not sell your personal information.
3. Information Sharing
We do not share your personal information with third parties, except in the following limited circumstances:
Service Providers: We share information with Google (Firebase) as necessary to provide the App's infrastructure and functionality. Google's use of data is governed by its own privacy policies (Link to Google Privacy Policy).
Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or in response to valid legal requests.
(Note: If your currency converter or Unsplash integration shares data with those providers, that should be explicitly mentioned here.)
4. Data Storage and Security
Your Trip Information and Profile Information are stored on secure servers managed by our service providers (Google Firebase). We implement reasonable security measures to protect your information, but no system is 100% secure.
5. Data Retention
We retain your information as long as you use the App or until you request deletion.
6. Your Rights and Choices
Currently, user accounts cannot be deleted directly within the App. If you wish to delete your account and associated data, please contact us directly via email, and we will process your request.
7. Children's Privacy
Our App is not intended for use by children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the new policy within the App or via other communication methods.
