Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 11, 2025

Our Commitment to Your Privacy

ItineraryForge is designed with privacy at its core. We believe your travel plans are personal, and we've built our application to keep your data where it belongs: with you.

Local-First Data Storage

All your trip data is stored locally in your browser using IndexedDB. This means:

  • Your itineraries, packing lists, and budget information never leave your device
  • We do not have access to your trip plans or personal travel information
  • Your data remains on your computer or mobile device
  • You have complete control over your information
  • No server-side databases store your personal travel data

What We Don't Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit:

  • Personal identification information (name, email, phone number)
  • Trip destinations, dates, or itinerary details
  • Packing list contents or budget information
  • Location data or travel history
  • Any user-generated content from your trip planning

Third-Party Services

To provide enhanced functionality, we use the following third-party services:

Mapbox (Map Services)

When you use map features, location searches are sent to Mapbox to display maps and provide place suggestions. No personal information is sent with these requests.

OpenWeather (Weather Data)

When you check weather information, destination names are sent to OpenWeather to retrieve forecast data. No personal information is included.

Ahrefs Analytics

We use Ahrefs Web Analytics for privacy-friendly website analytics. This service does not use cookies and does not collect personal data.

Data Retention

Since all data is stored locally in your browser:

  • Data persists until you manually delete it using browser tools
  • Clearing your browser data will remove all trip information
  • You can export your data at any time using our PDF export feature
  • We cannot recover data deleted from your browser

Sharing Your Trips

When you use the "Share" feature:

  • Your trip data is encoded in the URL (visible in the link)
  • Anyone with the link can view your trip information
  • Shared links do not expire and are not stored on our servers
  • You control who receives your shared links
  • We do not track or monitor shared links

Cookies

ItineraryForge does not use cookies for tracking or analytics. Any cookies present are only for essential functionality (e.g., maintaining your session during use).

Your Rights

Since all data is stored locally on your device:

  • You have complete ownership and control of your data
  • You can delete all data at any time through your browser settings
  • You can export your data using our PDF export feature
  • No data requests are necessary since we don't store your information

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
