Roamer ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website at roamer.travel and the Roamer self-guided audio walk platform. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have.
When you create an account, we collect your email address and, if you choose to provide it, your name. If you sign in through Google or Apple, we receive your basic profile information (name and email) from those services.
When you purchase a premium walk, payment is processed by Stripe. We do not store your credit card number or full payment details on our servers. We receive a transaction ID and confirmation of payment from Stripe.
During an active walk, we use your device's GPS to trigger audio playback at points of interest. Location data is processed locally on your device in real time and is not stored on our servers or transmitted to us.
We may generate and store a device identifier to manage walk access and prevent misuse. This identifier does not contain personal information about you or your device.
We use your browser's localStorage to save your preferences, including theme (light/dark), selected language, country, and walk progress. This data stays on your device and is not sent to our servers.
We use a privacy-focused analytics service (PostHog) to understand how the platform is used and to improve it. When you use Roamer, the following is collected automatically: pages and walks you view, audio playback events (start, pause, complete, skip), search queries you run, paywall and checkout interactions, the language you've selected, your approximate location derived from your IP address (country, region, and city: not precise GPS), your browser type, operating system, screen size, and the website that referred you, if any.
We do not record your screen, mouse movements, scrolling, or keystrokes. Session replay is disabled. We do not automatically capture every click. Only the specific events listed above. Your real-time GPS coordinates during a walk are processed locally on your device and never sent to our servers or analytics.
We use the following third-party services to operate our platform. Each has its own privacy policy governing how it handles data:
We do not sell your personal information to any third party. We do not use your data for advertising.
We use the minimum cookies needed to run the service, and never for advertising. Specifically: a session cookie for authentication when you sign in; a `roamer-lang` cookie to remember your language preference across page loads (set for 1 year); and short-lived cookies set by Stripe during checkout. We use localStorage in your browser for theme, country, walk progress, and saved sessions. Our analytics service (PostHog) is configured in cookieless mode. Analytics state is held in browser memory only and is cleared when you close the tab.
We retain your account information for as long as your account is active. Payment records are retained as needed for legal and financial compliance. Preferences stored in localStorage persist until you clear your browser data. If you delete your account, we will remove your personal information from our systems within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
You have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@roamer.travel. We will respond within 30 days.
We use industry-standard measures to protect your information, including encrypted connections (HTTPS), secure authentication (bcrypt password hashing, JWT tokens), and trusted infrastructure providers. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Roamer is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at hello@roamer.travel and we will promptly delete it.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
