Privacy Policy
Last Updated: July 28, 2026
Artfully Found (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we may collect, use, store, share, and protect information when you use our mobile application, website, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).
By using the Services, you acknowledge this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We May Collect
Depending on how you use the Services, we may collect:
Information you provide: such as your name, email address, account details, saved places, trip plans, preferences, feedback, and support requests.
Location information: if you grant permission, we may collect your device’s approximate or precise location to provide map, nearby-place, routing, and location-based features.
Device and usage information: such as device type, operating system, app version, IP address, identifiers, language, crash reports, and interactions with the Services.
Content and preferences: including searches, saved items, collections, routes, and filters you create or use.
Information from third parties: where permitted, such as mapping, analytics, authentication, payment, or advertising providers.
We may also collect information automatically through cookies, SDKs, analytics tools, and similar technologies.
2. How We Use Information
We may use collected information to:
Provide, operate, maintain, and improve the Services;
Show maps, places, routes, and nearby recommendations;
Save your preferences, collections, and trip information;
Respond to requests, feedback, and support inquiries;
Send service-related notices and, where permitted, promotional communications;
Monitor performance, diagnose errors, and prevent fraud, abuse, security incidents, or illegal activity;
Analyze usage trends and improve content and features;
Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms and policies.
We may create aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified information and use it for any lawful business purpose.
3. Location Information
Some features may require location access. You can allow, deny, or revoke location permission at any time through your device settings.
If location access is disabled, certain features—including nearby discovery, routing, and map-based recommendations—may not function fully. We may use location data while the app is in use and, if you separately authorize it, in the background.
4. How We Share Information
We may share information with:
Service providers that help us host, operate, analyze, secure, and improve the Services;
Mapping and routing providers to provide location-based features and directions;
Analytics providers to understand app performance and usage;
Business partners where necessary to provide requested features or offerings;
Legal authorities or other parties when we believe disclosure is necessary to comply with law, protect rights or safety, investigate wrongdoing, or enforce our policies;
Successors or affiliates in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of assets.
We do not sell personal information for money. However, certain sharing with analytics, advertising, or technology partners may be considered “sharing” under some privacy laws.
5. Third-Party Services and Links
The Services may include links to third-party websites, maps, businesses, or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, availability, pricing, hours, accessibility, accuracy, safety, or actions of third parties.
Your use of third-party services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. For example, when you open directions in Apple Maps or visit an external website, that provider’s policies apply.
6. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Services, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and support legitimate business purposes. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and how it is used.
7. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect information. However, no system, network, or transmission method is completely secure. We cannot guarantee that information will always be secure or that unauthorized access will never occur.
8. Your Choices and Rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to:
Access, correct, or delete certain personal information;
Request a copy of your information;
Withdraw consent, including location permission;
Opt out of marketing communications;
Limit certain processing or sharing of personal information;
Submit a privacy-related complaint.
To exercise a request, contact us at info@artfully-found.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding. Some requests may be limited by legal requirements, technical limitations, or legitimate business needs.
9. Children’s Privacy
The Services are not intended for children under 13 years of age, or the minimum age required in their jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children without appropriate authorization. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
10. International Users
Your information may be processed and stored in countries other than the country where you live. Those countries may have privacy laws that differ from your local laws. By using the Services, you understand that your information may be transferred, processed, and stored in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable law.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version in the Services and revise the “Last Updated” date. Your continued use of the Services after an update means you acknowledge the revised Privacy Policy, to the extent permitted by law.
