The short version

No account. You never sign up or give us your name, email or phone number.
No tracking. No advertising IDs, no analytics, and no third-party trackers.
Your location stays yours. We only use it to find places near you. We do not store it or build a history of where you've been.

What happens when you tap "I'm here"

Your phone shares your position with the app. To find places, the app sends coordinates rounded to about 100 metres to these open-data services:

OpenStreetMap (Overpass and Nominatim): nearby places and the name of your area. We send these through our own server so the results can be cached; the server keeps no logs of who asked.
Wikivoyage / Wikipedia / Wikidata: the "famous for" guide, photos and short descriptions.
Open-Meteo: local weather and time.
OpenStreetMap map tiles: the map picture, shown only when you open the Map view.

Each service has its own privacy policy. None of them receive anything that identifies you.

What is saved on your phone

Your saved places, food diary and Taste Passport, the health conditions you choose in "My health", your language, walking distance and the last area you viewed are kept only on your device, so the app works offline. They are never sent to us. To clear them, delete the app or clear its data.

When you report a place

If you tap "Wrong name or closed? Tell us", the app sends us the place's map ID, its name and position, and the problem you chose (wrong name, closed, or wrong location). To count each report only once per phone, our server keeps a one-way scrambled code made from your internet address, which cannot be turned back into the address. Nothing else about you is sent. Reports are used only to correct the place data.

Links to other apps

Buttons such as "Walk there", "Real photos & reviews", "Call" and food-delivery apps open Google Maps, your phone dialler or the delivery app. What happens there is covered by their own privacy policies.
