Privacy Policy

What Travelworthy is

Travelworthy is an editorial travel guide that tells you what a place is really like, so you can decide if it’s worth your time.

What data we collect

When you create an account, we store your authentication details (via our auth provider) and the places you save so your itinerary syncs across devices. Your itineraries (saved places, trip names, and trip dates for your active/next trips) are stored so you can pick up where you left off. If you browse without signing in, you can explore guides freely; saving places requires an account.

Email and marketing

Account signup creates a login identity with our auth provider. We do not automatically subscribe you to marketing email. When you save your first trip, you can opt in to occasional product updates and tips. You can opt out anytime via unsubscribe links or by contacting us.

Third-party content

TikTok embeds may load content and transmit information to TikTok when the embed loads, using cookies and similar technologies (including pixels and web beacons) to collect data about how TikTok’s services and content are accessed and used.

Travelworthy links to information and direct-purchase websites to help you plan and book your trip. We may add additional third-party links over time. Travelworthy is not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of these external sites.

Location and place search

We use Nominatim, a geocoding service provided by OpenStreetMap, to help return results for certain city and place searches. When a search is sent to Nominatim, the search terms you enter are transmitted to the service. For place searches, we may also provide a geographic area based on the selected city’s map center to help rank results. We do not send your device’s GPS coordinates, account email, or user ID to Nominatim.

Analytics

We use third-party analytics, such as Google Analytics, to understand how the site is used, such as page views and general location data, via cookies. We do not use this data to identify you personally or sell it to third parties.

Privacy rights

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), UK, or Switzerland: Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate personal data
• Request deletion of your personal data
• Request a copy of your data in a portable format
• Withdraw consent (such as marketing email opt-in) at any time
• Object to certain uses of your data

If you are a California resident: Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), you have the right to:

• Know what personal information we collect and how it’s used
• Request deletion of your personal information
• Correct inaccurate personal information
• Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (Travelworthy does not sell or share personal information)

How to exercise these rights

To make a request, email us at privacy@travelworthy.app. We will respond within 30 days. Deletion requests will remove your account, saved places, and trip data from our systems. Because some features rely on third-party services (such as TikTok and Google Analytics), we recommend also managing your data directly through those services’ own privacy tools. Locally stored browser data (such as saved preferences) can be cleared at any time through your browser’s site settings.
