Privacy & Security

Learn how we protect your data and keep your information secure.

Your Privacy Matters

At Vestigia, we take your privacy seriously. We believe you should have full control over your personal information and how it's shared. This page explains our practices and the tools available to protect your data.

Data We Collect

  • Account Information: Email, username, nationality, birthday, and profile details you provide.
  • Trip Data: Trips, itineraries, custom places, and notes you create.
  • Memories: Photos and location data you upload. EXIF/GPS metadata is stripped on upload to protect your privacy.
  • Usage Data: Anonymous analytics to improve our service.
  • Location Data: Extracted client-side from photo EXIF to suggest tags or verify POIs. The raw metadata is removed prior to storage.
  • Billing Data: Checkout email and transaction metadata are passed securely to Stripe. We do not store credit card details.

Privacy Controls

  • Profile Visibility: Choose who can see your profile (Public, Friends, Private).
  • Trip Visibility: Control who can view your trips and itineraries.
  • Hide Sections: Hide achievements, friends list, or visited places from your profile.
  • Search Privacy: Control whether you appear in user search results.

Security Measures

  • Encryption: All data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS) and at rest.
  • Secure Authentication: Passwords are hashed using industry-standard algorithms.
  • Session Security: Automatic session expiration and secure cookie handling.
  • Two-Factor Auth: Optional 2FA for additional account protection (coming soon).

Your Rights

  • Data Access: Request a copy of all data we have about you.
  • Data Correction: Update or correct any inaccurate information.
  • Data Deletion: Delete your account and all associated data permanently.
  • Data Portability: Export your data in a portable format.

Third-Party Services

  • Map Provider: We use OpenStreetMap and MapLibre for maps (no personal data shared).
  • Authentication & DB: Supabase handles secure authentication and database storage.
  • Payment Provider: Stripe handles billing and subscription payments.
  • 3D Models: Sketchfab provides embedded 3D models of historical landmarks.
  • Advertising: Google AdSense serves display ads under our cookie consent rules.
  • Travel affiliates (TravelPayouts): WeGoTrip (audio tours), Jetradar (flights), and Hotellook (hotels). Vestigia may earn a commission on qualifying bookings. Vestigia+ hides affiliate widgets.
  • Event integration (Ticketmaster): Event suggestions and ticket links in itinerary planning. Listed as an integration partner, not a TravelPayouts affiliate.
