Privacy Policy

About this notice

depart. is an early-access packing and trip-preparation organizer. Questions, privacy requests and feedback can be sent to go@readysetdepart.app. A legal operator name, postal address and any jurisdiction-specific disclosures have not yet been supplied by the owner.

Information you provide

Account information includes your email address, display name and sign-in information handled by the authentication service. If you use a connected sign-in provider, it supplies account information needed to sign in. depart. stores the traveler names, types, flags and notes you enter; trips and dates; destinations and journey bookings; packing libraries, templates, quantities, bags and completion states; Prep tasks; shopping lists; links; notes; and uploaded photos, screenshots or PDFs.

Traveler notes and reservation uploads may contain sensitive information or information about children or other people. Enter only what you have permission to use and need for travel preparation. Do not upload passwords, payment card details, full identity documents, ticket numbers, loyalty identifiers or home street addresses. Children’s traveler profiles are not separate child accounts.

How information is used

Information is used to maintain your private account, save and display your plans, calculate suggestions, and provide features you choose. Weather requests use itinerary locations and dates. Photo searches use destination text. When you choose reservation import, the submitted screenshot or PDF is processed by an AI service to suggest journey details for your review. Extraction may be inaccurate; saving is a separate action.

Providers and operational information

Lovable Cloud provides hosting, account authentication, private database and file storage, managed transactional email and an AI Gateway. Its underlying infrastructure includes database/authentication and Cloudflare hosting services. Open-Meteo supplies weather and geocoding. Wikimedia Commons supplies licensed destination photos. Google Fonts serves the typefaces. Google or Lovable may provide sign-in when selected; browser and operating-system push services deliver enabled notifications. These providers process information needed for their service, such as network addresses, request metadata, account details, submitted import content or message content. AI models/providers and processing locations can vary; no specific residency or AI-retention promise is made here.

Hosting, authentication, email and error-reporting services may retain security, delivery and diagnostic logs. depart. uses browser storage for sign-in sessions and device notification state; providers may set security cookies. The reviewed app does not implement advertising or a sale-of-data feature. This draft is not an independent audit of every provider’s practices.

Private plans and sharing

Ordinary app access is scoped to your signed-in account. Uploaded files are kept in private storage and opened through temporary authorized links. This does not mean a guarantee against all security incidents or that service operators can never access data for operational purposes. When you use sharing or download an export, the recipient or destination you choose receives that information. Treat exports and copied links as private.

Email and push choices

Reminder email and push have separate opt-in settings, off by default for new accounts. Settings hold your timezone, selected morning/evening delivery times and whether outstanding purchases appear in digests. Due reminders and digests exclude completed tasks at send time. Email is sent as depart. <go@readysetdepart.app>. Account verification and password-reset emails are necessary account messages, independent of reminder consent.

Turn email or push off in Settings to stop future reminder delivery. Disable push on a device or revoke its browser permission to stop device notifications. Email messages link to your notification settings. A message already queued or sent cannot be recalled; notification previews may appear on a device’s lock screen. Production recurring reminders remain paused until separately enabled by the owner.

Retention, export and deletion

App records remain until you remove them or delete your account; an inactivity-based deletion schedule is not currently implemented. Deleting an individual trip or replacing a file may leave older or unlinked files in storage. The account export includes saved app records and remaining files under your account’s storage folders.

Settings offers an export and password-confirmed account deletion. Deletion switches reminder consent off, removes account-owned uploads, deletes app records and then removes the sign-in account. These are separate operations: an error may leave a partially deleted account, and the app asks you to retry or contact us. Provider backups, operational logs and emails already delivered are outside this immediate deletion flow; their retention and deletion windows have not been verified and are not promised. Ask the contact above about remaining provider-held information.

Your choices and future changes

You can edit account information and saved plans, manage notifications, export data, delete your account or ask a privacy question at the contact above. Rights that apply depend on your location and the operator’s circumstances; no certification or compliance guarantee is claimed. Material changes to this draft require owner review and an updated notice.
