When you create an account, we collect your email address and a hashed password. When you use Scoutloop, we store the destinations and trips you search for so we can surface your history and saved trips. We do not collect payment information.
If you enable push notifications, we store a browser subscription token to deliver alerts to your device. This token does not identify you personally and is deleted when you disable notifications or delete your account.
We use browser localStorage to cache briefing results for up to 60 minutes for performance. This data stays on your device and is not sent to our servers.
We may collect basic usage data (pages visited, feature interactions) to improve the service. This data is not linked to personally identifiable information.
Your data is used solely to provide and improve Scoutloop — authenticating your account, saving your trips, and personalising your experience. We do not sell your personal data to third parties or use it for advertising.
Scoutloop fetches publicly available data from Environment Canada, Avalanche Canada, DriveBC, BC Wildfire Service, BC Parks, WildSafeBC, and Open-Meteo. When you search for a destination, Scoutloop's servers query these services on your behalf to retrieve relevant conditions. Your account information is never shared with them.
We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, your personal data and saved trips will be removed within 30 days. Anonymised usage logs may be retained longer for analytical purposes.
You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time. You may also export your saved trips from the Settings page. To exercise these rights, contact us using the link below.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted to this page with an updated date. Continued use of Scoutloop after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
