• the date and time of user routes;

• the preferences and constraints the user has for specific routes;
• the other users and the emails of any people the user might invite to share the route with them (the buddies of the user);
• information about which places the user has already visited, is not interested in or might want to visit some other time;
• the places or locations which the user has chosen to visit during any given route;
• the time when user has started navigation to a certain location from a certain location;
• the time when user has ended a route;
• the geoposition of the user (if user has explicitly enabled location services from within the application), which is only stored when the user chooses to skip a place or add an extra stop before the final leg of the route (used to mark the starting location to the next leg);

• any feedback the user leaves for the places;

How is the information used

Any data we collect from the user is not shared with any third parties outside our services and is used solely for our communication with the user or for the improvement of our services. We may share some of the data within the application without identifying the owner/author of the data, unless we are explicitly permitted to do so by the user, such as feedback, photos, reports etc.

During the route generation, our algorithm uses third party services such as Google Maps and Mapbox to obtain places and navigation data. During this process, no information is disclosed which could lead to the third party provider to link the reqests to a specific person. Simply put, third party providers will not learn about the user’s preferences, constraints or any other data related to the generated route.

Because of the embed Google maps and Google photos’ requests from within the clientside application (separate from our back end application or API), Google LLC might be able to connect the requests (along with its content) to the device making the requests. This could lead to Google LLC learning about which navigations and places the user is interested in.

When choosing to use turn-by-turn navigation with an external maps application, the user is accountable for the maps application provider terms of service and privacy policy.
