Effective date: March 26, 2026. This Privacy Policy explains how ShareYourTrip collects, uses, stores, and protects personal data when you access or use the platform.
This Privacy Policy applies to personal data processed through ShareYourTrip, including account registration, profile management, trip publishing, social interactions, and platform support and security functions.
By accessing or using the service, you acknowledge that your personal data may be processed as described in this Policy and in accordance with applicable law.
We may collect information you provide directly, including your email address, username, date of birth, profile information, uploaded content, comments, settings, and support communications.
We may also collect technical and usage information necessary to operate the service, such as authentication data, IP-related security logs, browser or device metadata, and interaction records required for performance, integrity, and abuse prevention.
We use personal data to create and manage user accounts, display user profiles and trips, provide social and notification features, operate account privacy controls, and maintain platform functionality.
We may also process personal data to investigate misuse, enforce our Terms of Service, respond to support requests, improve the service, and comply with legal or regulatory obligations.
We may rely on third-party service providers for infrastructure, hosting, analytics, authentication, media storage, email delivery, and security monitoring. These providers may process data only to the extent necessary to perform services on our behalf.
We do not sell personal data in the ordinary course of operating the platform. We may disclose data where required by law, legal process, or to protect the safety, rights, and integrity of the service or its users.
We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, maintain security, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and satisfy legal obligations.
When accounts or content are deleted, data may be removed, anonymized, or retained for limited compliance, fraud-prevention, or backup purposes, subject to applicable law and technical constraints.
We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data from unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, loss, or disclosure. However, no internet-based service or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Depending on applicable law, you may have the right to request access to your personal data, request correction of inaccurate data, request deletion, object to certain processing, or request export of data in a portable format.
Requests relating to privacy rights may be submitted using the contact details published in the Imprint. We may request reasonable verification before fulfilling such requests.
We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material updates may be communicated through the platform or by other reasonable means. Your continued use of the service after changes become effective may constitute acceptance where permitted by law.
