Location Data

Worldoh uses location information to improve travel discovery — for example, showing nearby destinations, recommending local experiences, and auto-filling your hometown when you set up your profile.

We collect two types of location data:

  • Coarse location — derived from your IP address or region settings. Collected automatically to surface relevant content.
  • Precise GPS location — collected only when you explicitly use a feature that requires it (such as "Use current location" in your profile or when pinning a place on the map). We request device permission before accessing GPS; you may deny or revoke this permission at any time in your device settings.

Worldoh does not continuously track your GPS location in the background.

AI & Agent Features

Worldoh offers an AI-powered travel agent that helps you plan trips, discover destinations, and answer travel questions. When you use the AI agent:

  • Your messages and conversation history are sent to our AI infrastructure to generate responses.
  • Relevant context about your trips, saved destinations, and travel preferences may be included to personalize the assistant's responses.
  • Conversations may be stored to maintain context across sessions and improve the quality of AI responses over time.
  • We do not use your personal conversations to train external AI models without your explicit consent.

Please avoid sharing sensitive personal information (such as passport numbers, payment details, or health information) within the AI agent.

5

Photos & Media

Photos, videos, and other media you upload to Worldoh are stored on Cloudflare R2 — a secure cloud object storage service. Media files are:

  • Associated with your account and the trip, post, or happening you uploaded them to.
  • Accessible to other users only according to the visibility settings of the trip or post they belong to.
  • Removed from our storage when you delete the associated content or close your account, subject to backup retention periods.

Media files may retain embedded metadata (such as EXIF data) at the time of upload. We do not automatically strip this metadata, so please review your device settings if you wish to remove location or device information before uploading.

6

Your Content

You retain ownership of the content you create and post on Worldoh. By posting content you grant Worldoh a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to display, reproduce, and distribute that content on the Platform and in promotional materials for Worldoh, in accordance with your privacy settings.

Public content (posts, happenings, and creator listings you mark as public) may be visible to all users and may appear in search results. Private trip data is visible only to you and collaborators you explicitly invite.

Please do not post content that contains sensitive personal information about yourself or others, including financial details, government IDs, or medical information.

7

When We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only in the following limited circumstances:

With Other Users

Certain profile information and content may be visible to other Worldoh users based on your privacy settings — for example, your username, profile photo, public trips, and creator listing. Trip collaborators you invite can see trip details and shared media.

With Service Providers

We work with trusted third-party companies that process data on our behalf to provide the Platform, including:

  • Supabase — database, authentication, and real-time infrastructure
  • Cloudflare (R2 & Workers) — media storage and platform hosting
  • Google — OAuth sign-in and maps services
  • Analytics providers — aggregated, anonymized usage analytics
  • Communication providers — email and push notification delivery

Each provider is contractually required to handle your data only as necessary to perform services for Worldoh and in accordance with applicable privacy laws.

For Legal Requirements

We may disclose information when we believe in good faith that it is required by applicable law, regulation, court order, or government request, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of Worldoh, our users, or the public.

Business Transfers

If Worldoh is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify users of any such change and any choices they may have regarding their information.

Third-Party Services & Links

The Platform may contain links to third-party websites, services, or social media platforms. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those services. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external services you use, including:

  • Google Maps & Places API — governs location search and map data
  • Google OAuth — governs sign-in via Google
  • Social platforms you connect or link in your profile
9

Security

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information, including:

  • Encryption of data in transit using TLS/HTTPS
  • Encrypted storage for sensitive account credentials
  • Access controls limiting which team members can access personal data
  • Regular security reviews and dependency updates
  • Secure, isolated cloud infrastructure through Cloudflare and Supabase

No system is perfectly secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted over the internet. If you suspect unauthorized access to your account, please contact us immediately at support@worldoh.com.

10

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services. Specifically:

  • Active account data — retained while your account remains open.
  • Deleted content — removed from active systems within 30 days; may persist in encrypted backups for up to 90 days.
  • Closed accounts — personal information deleted within 90 days, except where retention is required by law or to resolve disputes or prevent fraud.
  • Anonymized analytics — may be retained indefinitely in aggregated, non-identifiable form.
