Privacy Policy

1. Who This Privacy Policy Applies To

This Privacy Policy describes how Tabiflow LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company, handles information when you use Tabiflow (the “Service”). It applies to all users of Tabiflow.

2. Summary

In Tabiflow v1.0, the architecture is designed to handle as little personal information as possible:

Some data necessarily passes through service providers when you use a web app — page requests, IP addresses for routing, geolocation if you grant browser permission. We describe each of these below.

3. Information We Handle

3.1 Itinerary content you create

This includes trip stops, place names, notes, tags, coordinates, route-link choices, and any export data you generate. In v1.0, this stays in your browser’s local storage. Tabiflow LLC does not store it on our servers. You can clear it at any time by clearing your browser data, opening Tabiflow in a private/incognito window, or using your browser’s site-data management tools.

3.2 Location data (geolocation)

We use your device location only when you tap “Use current location” and grant your browser’s geolocation permission. The location reading is used only for the immediate pin action and is not retained, transmitted, or stored on Tabiflow LLC servers. You can refuse the browser permission at any time without losing access to the Service.

3.3 Technical and operational data

When you load Tabiflow, your browser communicates with our hosting providers. This generates standard internet log data — including your IP address, request URL, request time, browser user agent, and similar — that is necessary to deliver the page to you. This data is processed by our subprocessors (see §6) and is not used to build a personal profile.

3.4 Support correspondence

If you email support@tabiflow.net or legal@tabiflow.net, we receive and retain your message, your email address, and any information you choose to include. We use this only to respond to you and to operate the Service.

4. How We Use Information

We use the information described in §3 to:

We do not use information described in §3 to build advertising profiles, retarget you, or sell to third parties.

5. Legal Bases (for users with applicable rights)

Where applicable (e.g., GDPR, UK GDPR, Japan APPI), we process information on the following bases:

6. Subprocessors

The following third parties process limited operational data on our behalf:

SubprocessorPurposeLocation
Cloudflare, Inc. (and Cloudflare Pages)Hosting, content delivery, bot protection (Turnstile)Global (U.S. headquartered)
Stadia Maps, LLCMap tiles, autocomplete, geocodingU.S. / Global
Google LLCOutbound navigation links (you choose when to open them; no embedded Maps in v1.0)Global

We will publish an updated subprocessor list at tabiflow.net/legal/subprocessors as it changes. If we add a new subprocessor, we will update that page.

7. International Data Transfers

Because our subprocessors operate globally, your requests may be routed through points of presence located outside your country, including the United States and the European Union. Where applicable law requires it, we rely on standard contractual clauses or equivalent transfer mechanisms with our subprocessors.

8. Retention

9. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the following rights:

To exercise any right, email legal@tabiflow.net. We will respond within 30 days (or sooner if required by law).

Tabiflow v1.0 architecture means most data is in your own browser — for deletion, you can simply clear your browser’s site data for tabiflow.net. If you contact us, we will confirm what (if anything) we hold about you and assist you with deletion.

10. U.S. State Privacy Rights (California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, and others)

If you are a resident of a U.S. state with a comprehensive privacy law, you have the rights listed in §9 to the extent provided by your state’s law. We do not sell personal information as that term is defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). We do not engage in “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not engage in profiling or automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

To exercise a state-law right, email legal@tabiflow.net and identify the state whose right you are exercising. We do not require you to create an account to exercise a right.

11. Japan (APPI)

Tabiflow LLC is a foreign business operator located in the United States. Although Tabiflow is offered to non-residents of Japan, we acknowledge that foreign travelers using the Service while physically located in Japan are data subjects under the Japan Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI).

For users physically in Japan:

Tabiflow LLC does not currently target or market the Service to residents of Japan. If we open the Service to Japan residents in a future release, we will commission a Japanese-language version of these documents reviewed by Japan counsel and update this section accordingly.

12. Europe and the United Kingdom (GDPR / UK GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland and the GDPR or UK GDPR applies to our processing, you have the rights listed in §9. The controller is Tabiflow LLC. Contact legal@tabiflow.net. You may lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority.

13. Children

Tabiflow is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected personal information from a child under 13, contact legal@tabiflow.net and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

14. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the limited information we handle, including HTTPS encryption in transit, Cloudflare’s security stack, and access controls on operational accounts. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

In v1.0, the strongest single security control is architectural: most of your data never leaves your device.

15. Data Breach Notification

If we become aware of a breach affecting personal information we handle, we will notify affected users without undue delay, and in any event within the time frames required by applicable law (including, where applicable, the 72-hour window under GDPR Article 33), and will notify relevant supervisory authorities as required.

16. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top and post the updated version at tabiflow.net/privacy. If the change is material, we will display an in-app notice.

17. Language

This Privacy Policy is written in English. We provide a Japanese-language version (プライバシーポリシー) as a courtesy translation at tabiflow.net/privacy/ja. In case of any conflict or difference in meaning between the English and Japanese versions, the English version controls.
