Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 11, 2026

This policy reflects the current BudsLog MVP. We will update it when product features or third-party services materially change.

1. Information we process

  • Account data: Supabase Auth user ID, sign-in provider (Kakao or Apple), and minimum authentication information provided by that provider
  • Profile data: display name set by the user
  • Trip data: title, destination, dates, trip type, transportation, party size, visibility, days, and itinerary items
  • Itinerary and place data: selected places, addresses and coordinates, itinerary notes, private notes, and reference links
  • Trip photo data: travel photos the user explicitly selects and uploads, their storage paths, and cover-photo selection information
  • Private saved data: saved trips, place collections, place notes, and trip checklists
  • Activity data: place feedback, trip-copy history, companion invitation and membership data, representative YouTube video URLs, and reports
  • For web deletion/privacy requests: contact email, sign-in method, minimum account-identification hint, and the message submitted

2. Why we use it

  • Authentication and account management
  • Trip creation, collaboration, publishing, and copying
  • Uploading and storing trip photos and displaying a selected cover photo
  • Place search, saving, routing, and post-trip feedback
  • Error handling, service security, and account/data deletion requests

3. Public information

When a user makes a trip public, information associated with that public trip, such as its title, destination, dates, public itinerary, and selected cover photo, may be visible to others. Private itinerary notes, reference links, personal place collections and notes, private checklists, and each user's individual place-feedback value are not shown on public trip pages. Photos from a private trip are not shown in public trip discovery.

4. Third-party services

  • Supabase: authentication, database, file storage, and Edge Functions
  • Kakao: Kakao sign-in, Korean place search, maps, and route-related features
  • Apple: Sign in with Apple on iOS
  • YouTube: public metadata lookup and opening representative videos

These providers may process technical logs or authentication data under their own policies.

5. Location

The BudsLog MVP does not collect a user's live GPS location. Coordinates attached to itinerary items are the locations of places the user chooses.

6. Retention and deletion

Account and service data is retained as needed to provide the service while the account remains active or until the user deletes the relevant data. When a user deletes an account from MY → Delete account, associated personal data, including trip photos uploaded by the user, is handled through the service's deletion process. If the app cannot be accessed, a web deletion request can be submitted. Information submitted through account or privacy requests is retained as needed to process the request and handle necessary disputes, then deleted. Information that must be retained by law may be kept for the required period.

  • Change your profile name

  • Delete saved data, notes, and trip photos
  • Request deletion of your account and associated data

8. Privacy requests

Privacy questions and account deletion requests for users who cannot access the app can be submitted through the account and data request page.

9. Changes

If our data processing or service structure changes, we will update this page and its effective date.
