Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2, 2026

This policy is written in English. Translations are provided for convenience — if a translation ever conflicts with the English version, the English version controls.

The short version: we collect as little as we can. A Google account is required to use the app — there's no anonymous access — and your saved spots sync to that account so they follow you across devices. Your location is used on your phone to measure distance and is never sent to us in raw form or stored on our servers.

This policy explains how boar'ed handles personal information across both the boar'ed website (the marketing page at boared.pages.dev) and the boar'ed web app (/app and /login). boar'ed is an early-stage product; we'll keep this page current as it grows.

Questions, or want to exercise a right below? Email us at boar.ed67@gmail.com. That address is also our point of contact for personal-information matters.

What we collect, and why

  • Account info (required). A Google account is required to use the app — we receive your email, name, and a provider account ID from Google, plus the consents you give at sign-in (that you are 14 or older, that you agree to this policy, and an optional marketing opt-in). We keep a timestamped record of those consents.
  • Saved spots. Spots you save sync to our servers, tied to your account, so they follow you across devices. We also keep a local copy in your browser for a snappy UI, but your account is the source of truth.
  • Location (on your device). If you tap "Use my location," your browser shares your position with the page on your device only. We coarsen it (to roughly 110 m) and use it momentarily to measure distances to nearby spots. We do not send your raw GPS to our servers and do not store your location. You can skip this and pick a neighborhood instead.
  • Technical data. Like any website, our host processes basic request data (such as your IP address and standard logs) to deliver and secure the service. To understand overall usage we use Cloudflare's privacy-first Web Analytics, which measures aggregate traffic without cookies and without tracking you across other sites. We don't use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.
  • Usage activity. To see what's working, we record basic in-app actions — like rolling for picks (with the budget and distance you chose) and opening a place's details — tied to your account id. We never put your name, email, or location in these records.

Where your data goes (transfer outside Korea)

boar'ed runs on global infrastructure, so some processing happens outside the Republic of Korea. By creating an account you consent to the transfer of your account data (email, name) abroad as described here. The processors we rely on:

  • Cloudflare, Inc. (United States) — hosting, app backend, and content delivery. Processes: account data, request logs. Retained for as long as your account exists or as needed to operate and secure the service.
  • Google LLC (United States) — the sign-in provider used to create your account. Processes: the account email, name, and ID it returns to us.

You have the right to refuse this transfer, but since an account is required to use boar'ed, refusing means you won't be able to use the app.

How long we keep it

  • Account data: until you delete your account or withdraw consent.
  • Synced saves: until you delete your account or remove them.
  • Technical logs: kept briefly for security and operations.

Your rights

You can ask us to access, correct, or delete your personal information, to stop processing it, or to withdraw a consent you gave. Email boar.ed67@gmail.com and we'll handle it. Withdrawing consent doesn't affect processing we already did lawfully.

Children

boar'ed isn't directed at children under 14. An account is required to use the app at all, and sign-in is gated to ages 14 and older — there's no way for a younger child to use boar'ed. If you believe a child under 14 created an account, contact us and we'll remove it.

How we protect your data

We serve everything over HTTPS, limit who can access account data, and collect as little as possible in the first place. No system is perfectly secure, but data minimization is our first line of defense.

Leaving boar'ed

Opening a spot in Kakao Map, Naver Map, or Google Maps takes you to those services, which have their own privacy policies. We don't control what they do with your visit.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle your data, we'll update this page and the "last updated" date above.
