Specially protected data#

Using Cruising can reveal aspects of your sex life or sexual orientation, special category data (article 9 of the GDPR). We only handle it with your explicit consent (article 9.2.a), which you give by ticking a separate box when you enter Cruising. You can withdraw it whenever you like by deleting your account. Looking at the map and the pages without an account needs no data from you.

What data we handle and why#

• Account: name, email, password (encrypted) and language, to give you access (article 6.1.b).
• Age: you give your date of birth when you enter, but we only keep the year.
• Entry: the version of the rules you accepted and when, and whether you turned on email alerts.
• Places: the ones you propose (name, type, location, description, times) with your account, so you can see and edit them and so we can moderate them.
• Reviews and reports: the ones you write and make.
• Security: the IP address and browser of each session (legitimate interest, article 6.1.f).
• Your position: if you press "Locate me", your browser centres the map on your position. That position never leaves your device: it is not sent or stored.

Emails#

We write to you when the team publishes or rejects a place of yours, or suspends your account. Emails never include the place's name or content. You can turn off the "place published" alert in your profile; the team's decisions are always sent.

The map#

The map's pictures are loaded by your browser directly from the servers of the OpenStreetMap Foundation, which receive your IP address and the area you are looking at. They are governed by their privacy policy. The map is © OpenStreetMap contributors.

Who sees your data#

Published places are seen by anyone, without your name. Reviews are seen only by members who have entered, as "Member". Your name and email are never shown. We don't sell or hand data to anyone, unless the law requires it (for example a court order, or to report content involving minors). The only data processor is OVHcloud, which hosts the service, the database and the email on servers in the European Union.

How long we keep it#

As long as you have the account. When you delete it, your profile, reviews and reports are deleted; the places you proposed stay published without your name. Backups are removed after 14 days.

Your rights#

You can download your data and delete your account from "My account". You can also ask us to access, correct or delete your data, to restrict or object to its processing, or to receive it in a portable format by writing to hello@codeqlick.com. If you think we haven't handled it properly, you can complain to the Spanish Data Protection Agency (aepd.es).

Cookies#

Only technical cookies: NEXT_LOCALE (language) and cq_at / cq_rt (signed in). No advertising.
