# Privacy Draft for the first release. To be finalised with the legal entity details before launch. ## Your location If you tap "Use my location", your browser shares your position with the page. Tsugi uses it on your phone to find nearby places. It is not sent to us and it is not stored. ## Accounts You never need an account to find a place. If you choose to sign in, we store your email address, the places you save, the trips you create and the people you share them with, the places Tsugi showed you while signed in, any reports you send about a place, and the date you joined. You can also add your name, country, language and where you are staying, and tell us what you would want from a future paid plan. All of it is optional. Signing in uses a one-time code emailed to you, with no password. The code email is sent through our email provider, Brevo. We use your email only to sign you in and, if you turn it on, to tell you about new Tsugi features. You can turn that off, download everything we hold about you, or delete your account at any time from the Account page. Deleting removes your email, saved places, trips you own and history permanently. People you shared a trip with can see the places in it and how many people are in it, not your email. ## Cookies and storage We do not set tracking cookies. Your browser stores the site's own files so it loads faster and works offline, and, if you sign in, a sign-in token so you stay signed in. ## Usage measurement We record anonymous events, such as which problem was chosen and whether a place was opened in maps, to improve the product. Each browser tab gets a random ID that is not linked to you. Events never include your location, your email or anything you type. They are not recorded if your browser sends Do Not Track. We also see which website or QR code a visit came from and your browser language. ## Other services Our host, Vercel, keeps standard server logs. The Tsugi server asks the free Open-Meteo service for the weather in the centre of Tokyo; your position and address are never sent to it. Weather answers are cached so your visit does not trigger a request of its own. Fonts load from Google Fonts. Place photos load from [thesteep.app](https://thesteep.app). When you tap a maps link, Google Maps or Apple Maps takes over under their own policies. ## Contact Questions about privacy: [hello@tsugi.travel](mailto:hello@tsugi.travel).
