Privacy Policy
Last updated 31 August 2026. This explains what information TripNido collects, why, and how you can control it.
What we collect
Account information. When you sign up, we store your name, email address, and a securely hashed version of your password (we never store your password itself). If you sign in with Google, we store your name, email and profile photo as provided by Google — we don't receive your Google password.
Trip and planning data. When you use the planner, we store what you tell us — destination, dates, travellers, budget, interests, and any free-text notes — along with the itinerary generated for you, so you can return to it later.
Account preferences. Travel pace, budget style, and similar settings you choose on your account page.
Newsletter signups. If you subscribe from a guide page, we store the email address you provide.
Session cookies. A single cookie keeps you logged in. We don't use third-party advertising or tracking cookies.
How we use it
- To create your account and let you log back in.
- To generate your itinerary: the destination, dates, and preferences you enter are sent to OpenAI's API to produce your day-by-day plan and budget estimate. OpenAI processes this request but TripNido does not permit it to be used to train their models on your data beyond their standard API terms.
- To show you your own saved trips and let you edit your preferences.
- To send planning-related updates if you've opted in, or to the email address you gave us via the newsletter form.
- In aggregate, anonymised form, to understand overall usage (e.g. how many trips were created) — we do not review individual trip content except to operate or fix the service.
What we don't do
- We don't sell your personal information to anyone.
- We don't run advertising trackers or third-party analytics scripts on this site.
- We don't ask for or store payment card details — TripNido doesn't process payments.
Who we share data with
Only the service providers needed to run TripNido: OpenAI (to generate itineraries and article drafts), and Google (only if you choose to sign in with Google). We don't share your data with advertisers or data brokers.
Data retention and deletion
We keep your account and trip data for as long as your account is active. If you'd like your account and associated data deleted, email us at privacy@tripnido.com and we'll process the request.
Your choices
- You can update your travel preferences any time from your account page.
- You can unsubscribe from planning emails from your account settings.
- You can request a copy or deletion of your data by contacting us.
Children's privacy
TripNido is not directed at children under 16, and we don't knowingly collect data from them.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes to this policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page.
