This Privacy Policy explains how Tuctac collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal data when you use the Tuctac mobile application and related services. By accessing or using Tuctac, you agree to this Privacy Policy.
1. Introduction
Tuctac is a travel journaling and trip-tracking app that allows users to create trips, record travel steps, upload photos and videos, view routes on an interactive map, and generate shareable stories. To provide these features, we collect certain information from users. We are committed to handling this information responsibly, transparently, and in accordance with applicable laws.
This Privacy Policy describes the types of information we collect, how that information is used, and the choices you have regarding your personal data.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information that you provide to us directly, information automatically generated by your use of the app, and limited information provided by third-party services.
We collect location data when you grant permission on your device. This includes precise GPS coordinates that allow the app to track your movement during a trip, as well as approximate location used for general map functionality. You may revoke location permission at any time.
We collect user-generated content such as photos, videos, trip titles, step descriptions, notes, and any other media or text you add to your trips. This content is stored privately and is only visible to you unless you manually export and share it externally.
We collect account-related information such as your email address, profile name, language preferences, notification settings, and map display settings. If you sign in using a third-party service, we may receive limited information associated with that service.
We automatically collect technical and diagnostic information including your device type, operating system version, app version, IP address, usage timestamps, crash reports, and performance data. This information helps us improve the stability and functionality of the app.
When you contact us through the support form, we may collect your email address, support message, and diagnostic information necessary to respond effectively.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use your information primarily to operate, maintain, and improve the Tuctac application.
We use location data to track your routes and display your movement on the map. We use user-generated content to display your trips, steps, photos, and videos within the app. We use account data to personalize your experience, store your preferences, and enable app features such as notifications. We use diagnostic and technical information to enhance performance, resolve issues, and develop new features.
We may analyze anonymized and aggregated usage data to better understand how users interact with the app and to improve the overall user experience. This aggregated information does not identify individual users.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.
4. How Your Information Is Shared
We only share your information in limited circumstances.
We may share your data with service providers who assist us in delivering the app’s functionality. These providers may include cloud storage services, mapping platforms, analytics tools, authentication services, and crash-reporting tools. These parties are only permitted to use your information as necessary to support the services they provide to us.
We do not publicly share your uploaded content and we do not display your trips or steps to other users. Your content remains private unless you choose to export and share it outside of the app.
We may disclose information if required by law, legal process, or a governmental authority, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, safety, or security of Tuctac, its users, or the public.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of the transaction. If this occurs, we will notify you or update this Privacy Policy accordingly.
5. Storage and Security
We store your information using secure, industry-standard technical measures designed to protect your data from unauthorized access, loss, theft, or alteration. These measures include encryption, access controls, and secure network protocols.
Although we take reasonable steps to protect your data, no system is completely secure. You acknowledge that no method of data storage or transmission is guaranteed to be free from risk.
Your personal content and account information are retained for as long as your account remains active or as long as necessary to support app functionality. You may request deletion of your data as described below.
6. Your Rights and Choices
You may access, update, or delete your account information at any time through the app’s settings.
You may revoke location permissions through your device settings. If you disable location access, certain app features such as trip tracking may not function.
You may request deletion of your entire account and all associated data by contacting us at our support email. Once deleted, your data cannot be recovered.
You may choose to disable notifications through your device’s notification settings or within the app.
7. Children’s Privacy
Tuctac is not intended for use by children under the age of thirteen. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under this age. If we become aware that data has been collected from a child, we will remove it promptly.
8. International Data Transfers
Your information may be stored or processed in countries other than your country of residence. By using the app, you consent to the transfer of your information to these locations. These transfers are conducted in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
9. Third-Party Services
Tuctac relies on third-party services for maps, analytics, cloud hosting, authentication, and crash reporting. These third parties may collect or process limited information as required to provide their services. Each third party maintains its own privacy policy, and we encourage you to review those policies if you would like more information about how they handle data.
Tuctac is not responsible for the practices of third-party websites or services that you may access outside the app.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or in the law. When updates are made, we will revise the effective date at the top of the document. Continued use of the app after updates are published indicates that you accept the revised policy.
