Privacy Policy
Last updated 14 July 2026
This policy explains what Roadtrip Planner collects when you plan a road trip with us, why, and the choices you have. We collect as little as we can and never sell your data.
What we collect
- Trip details you enter — origin, destination, dates, party, preferences — and the itineraries we generate for you.
- Your email, if you sign in. We use passwordless magic links; we never store a password.
- Anonymous usage analytics — which screens and actions you use — tied to a random device id, not your identity. Analytics only run after you accept cookies.
- Payment status, if you subscribe. Card details go directly to Stripe; we never see or store them.
Service providers
We share the minimum needed with processors that make the product work:
- Google Places & Mapbox — resolving places and driving routes.
- Anthropic & Google (Gemini) — drafting itineraries and illustrations.
- Open-Meteo — weather forecasts.
- Stripe — subscription payments.
- Resend — sending your sign-in emails.
- PostHog — product analytics (self-hosted proxy, EU region).
- Vercel & Neon — hosting and database.
Cookies
- Essential — a device id (trip limits & abuse prevention) and, once you sign in, a session cookie. These are required for the app to work.
- Analytics — set only after you accept, to understand and improve the product. You can decline and still use everything.
Your rights
You can view your data, export your trips, and delete your account at any time from your account page. Deleting your account removes your trips and profile. For anything else, email us and we'll help.
Retention
We keep your trips and account while your account is active. Delete your account and we remove them. Anonymous analytics are retained in aggregate; place and route data we cache from providers expires automatically.
