Goafie
Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 28, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Goafie ("Goafie," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use the Goafie mobile apps, websites, and related services (the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to this Policy.
1. Information we collect
Information you provide
- Account information — your name, email address, and profile details. You sign in with Apple or Google, which share a basic identifier and the email associated with your account.
- Travel content — the flights, trips, stays, dates, places, notes, and photos you add. Any location information comes from the entries you create (such as airports and cities) — Goafie does not track your device's GPS location.
- Support communications — messages you send us.
Information collected automatically
- Usage and diagnostic data — basic app interactions and error/diagnostic information used to keep the Service running.
- Device data — device type, operating system, app version, and identifiers, including an App Check attestation token used to verify that requests come from the genuine app.
- Push token — a notification token (via Firebase Cloud Messaging) so we can send the alerts and live activity you enable.
Subscriptions
If you buy a subscription, the purchase is processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play and managed through our payments provider, RevenueCat. We receive your subscription status — not your full payment‑card details.
2. How we use information
- To provide, maintain, secure, and improve the Service;
- To calculate your travel statistics, status tiers, and year‑in‑review;
- To enable the sharing and social features you choose to use;
- To send notifications and live activity you opt into;
- To manage subscriptions and prevent fraud and abuse; and
- To communicate with you about updates, security, and support, and to comply with legal obligations.
3. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as follows:
- With other users — according to the sharing and visibility choices you make in the app.
- With service providers — vendors who process data on our behalf to run the Service (listed below), under contracts that limit their use of it.
- For legal reasons — when required by law or to protect the rights, safety, and security of users and the Service.
- In a business transfer — if Goafie is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to this Policy.
4. Service providers we use
- Google Firebase — authentication, Cloud Firestore database, Cloud Functions, Cloud Storage, Cloud Messaging, App Check, and website hosting.
- Apple and Google — Sign in with Apple and Google Sign‑In, and app distribution through the App Store and Google Play.
- RevenueCat — subscription management.
- Flight‑data providers — to look up schedules, routes, and status information.
These providers process data under their own privacy policies in addition to ours.
5. Data retention
We keep your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. When you delete your account, we delete or de‑identify your personal information within a reasonable period, except where we must retain it to meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements.
6. Your choices and rights
- Access and update — view and edit your information in the app.
- Delete — delete your account and associated data from within the app, or by emailing us.
- Sharing controls — change what you share, per trip, at any time.
- Notifications — turn push notifications and live activity on or off in your device settings.
- Regional rights — depending on where you live (for example, under the GDPR or CCPA/CPRA), you may have rights to access, correct, port, or delete your data, or to object to certain processing. Contact us to exercise them; we will not discriminate against you for doing so.
7. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit and App Check to help ensure requests come from the genuine app. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Children's privacy
The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age of digital consent where you live), and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
9. International users
Goafie relies on global providers such as Google and Apple, so your information may be processed and stored in countries other than your own, which may have different data‑protection laws. Where required, we take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards for these transfers.
10. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify you and will update the "Last updated" date above.
