Privacy

In short: we collect as little as possible, we don't sell your data, and nobody buys a score. Below you'll find in detail what we collect, why, and what rights you have.

Data

What data we collect

We only collect what's needed for the site to work: your account data (email and an encrypted password), content you create (votes, reviews, suggested places), and minimal technical data generated automatically — IP address, device type, and pages visited — for security and basic statistics.

Purpose

Why we use it

We use data to keep your account, display and weight community votes, prevent fraud and abuse, and improve the product. We don't build advertising profiles or make automated decisions that affect you.

Third parties

Who we share it with

We don't sell or rent your data. Our infrastructure providers (hosting, database, email) use it strictly to deliver the service, under contracts that require them to protect it. We may disclose it only if the law requires it.

Cookies

Cookies

We use essential cookies to keep you signed in and keep the site secure. For anonymous statistics we use minimal measurement, without cross-site tracking. You can block them in your browser, but some features may stop working.

Retention

How long we keep it

We keep data while your account is active. If you delete your account, we remove personal data within a reasonable time; public contributions (e.g. votes) may remain anonymized so community scores aren't distorted.

GDPR

Your rights

Under GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your data, object to processing, and withdraw consent. Write to us and we'll handle the request as quickly as we can. You also have the right to contact the supervisory authority (ANSPDCP).
