Privacy Policy

This page explains what data Staypick may collect and how it’s used.

Quick summary
  • We don’t sell personal data.
  • We collect only what’s needed to run and improve the service.
  • If you use AI itinerary features, your input text may be sent to an AI provider to generate results.
  • You can request access, correction, deletion, or suspension of processing.
1) What we collect

Depending on which features you use, we may process the following categories of information:

  • Usage & device data — pages viewed, clicks, searches, approximate location (city-level), device/browser info, and diagnostic logs (e.g., IP address, timestamps).
  • Cookies / local storage — language preference cookies, short-lived identifiers for security/abuse prevention, and session-related data. (If you sign in, an auth token may be stored in the browser.)
  • Account & profile (if applicable) — email, nickname, and other minimal information required to provide membership-based features.
  • User content (if applicable) — posts, comments, likes, or other content you submit.
  • AI itinerary inputs (if you use AI features) — text you enter such as travel preferences, schedules, budgets, or place selections used to generate an itinerary.
  • Support inquiries — information you send via email (and any details needed to respond).
2) How we use it
  • To provide and operate the service (pages, maps, search, recommendations).
  • To improve ranking, search quality, and user experience.
  • To prevent abuse, spam, and fraud, and to keep the service secure.
  • To respond to inquiries and handle requests.
  • To comply with legal obligations when required.
3) Cookies & similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to remember language preferences, maintain sessions, measure aggregate usage, and protect the service.

  • Preference cookies: e.g., language settings.
  • Security cookies: abuse prevention and rate-limiting.
  • Analytics cookies (if enabled): to understand aggregated traffic and improve the product.

You can control cookies in your browser settings. Some features may not work properly if cookies are disabled.

4) Sharing & processors

We do not sell personal data. We may share limited information with service providers (processors) only as needed to operate the service.

  • Infrastructure/hosting providers (to store and deliver the service content).
  • Analytics providers (if enabled) to understand aggregated usage.
  • AI providers (if you use AI itinerary features) to generate responses from your input text.
  • Email/support tools to handle inquiries and respond to requests.
