Privacy policy
Last updated 12 October 2026. Applies to the Spotplanner app for iPhone, Android and the web at spotplanner.eu.
The short version
Spotplanner does not have accounts and does not collect personal data. Everything you create in the app — your trips, your notes, the photos you add, the countries you pin, your name and home country — is stored on your device only. We do not see it, and we do not sell or share anything, because we have nothing to share.
What stays on your device
- Your trips, their dates, notes and the photos you attach to them.
- Your travel pins: countries, dates, places, notes and photos in your diary.
- Your profile: the name you typed, your home country, your language and your map preferences.
- Downloaded destination packs (the list of spots for a city), so the app works offline.
Deleting the app deletes all of it. On the web, clearing the browser's site data does the same.
What the app requests from the internet
To show content, the app downloads public files. These requests carry your IP address and the name of the file, like any web page you open; no account, name or trip data is attached.
| Service | Used for |
|---|---|
| GitHub (spotplanner-packs repository) and its CDN | Destination packs: the spots of a city, downloaded the first time you open it |
| Wikimedia Commons | Photos of spots and destinations, with their credits |
| OpenFreeMap (web) · Apple Maps (iPhone) · Google Maps (Android) | The map tiles behind the suggestion and day maps |
| flagcdn.com | Country flags on the world map |
Apple Maps and Google Maps on the phone are provided by the operating system under Apple's and Google's privacy policies.
Location
If you tap "Share my location" on the suggestion screen, the app reads your position once to show how far each spot is. It is used on the device only and never sent anywhere. You can decline, and the app works without it.
Photos
Photos you add are copied into the app's own folder on your device. They are used only inside the app, in the pictures and videos you choose to share yourself.
Sharing
Pictures, videos and text you share go through your device's share sheet to the app you pick (Instagram, Messages, …). Spotplanner does not post anything on your behalf and does not receive what you share.
What we do not do
- No analytics, no advertising, no tracking identifiers, no third-party SDKs that profile you.
- No Google Places data is stored by the app; Google content appears only inside Google's own cards.
- No Instagram data about you is collected.
Children
The app is rated for everyone and collects no data from anyone, including children.
When accounts arrive
A future version will offer an optional account to sync trips between devices. That version will update this policy before anything leaves your device, and the app will keep working without an account.
