At TripHistorian.com ("we", "our", "us"), we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you use our services, including logging in with Google or email, and uploading your flight logs.

1. Information We Collect

1.1. Login Information

We provide two methods for account creation and authentication:

• Google Login: When you choose to log in using your Google account, we collect basic account information such as your email address and any other information authorized by Google during the login process.

1.2. Flight Log Uploads

You can upload flight logs from the following third-party services:

• App in the Air

When you upload flight logs, we collect and store flight-related data such as flight dates, times, routes, and airline details. We do not collect or store any personally identifiable information (PII) contained in the logs beyond the minimum necessary for login and logout processing.

1.3. Firebase Analytics

We use Firebase Analytics to understand how users interact with our services. This may include data like app usage, device information, and general geographic location (country-level). However, this data is anonymized and cannot be used to personally identify users.

2. How We Use Your Information

The data we collect is used for the following purposes:

• Authentication: To facilitate secure login via Google or email.
• Flight Data Processing: To store and display your flight details without linking them to personal identifiers.
• Analytics: To improve our service and user experience based on aggregated usage data from Firebase Analytics.

We do not share your personal data with third parties except where required by law or with your explicit consent.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures, including encryption, to protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration. While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
