Privacy Policy

What We Collect

WhereNext collects minimal data to provide and improve the service:

• Account data: Email address and authentication tokens when you sign in (via Supabase Auth).
• Profile preferences: Your onboarding quiz answers (profile type, budget, priorities) stored locally in your browser and optionally on our servers if you save simulations.
• Anonymous analytics: Page views, feature usage, and conversion events via PostHog. No personally identifiable information is linked to analytics data.
• Payment data: Processed entirely by Stripe. We never see or store your full card number.

How We Use Your Data

• Personalize country rankings based on your profile preferences.
• Save and restore your simulations across devices.
• Process Pro plan subscriptions via Stripe.
• Improve product features based on anonymous usage patterns.

What We Don't Do

• We never sell your personal information to third parties.
• We never use AI in our scoring algorithm — all rankings are deterministic and data-driven.
• We never share your profile data with advertisers.

Data Sources

Country data is sourced from official institutional APIs including the World Bank, WHO, IMF, OECD, and Open-Meteo. This data is publicly available and refreshed periodically via ISR (Incremental Static Regeneration).

Local Storage

WhereNext stores preferences, recent views, and onboarding drafts in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly save a simulation to your account. Stale entries are automatically cleaned up after 30-90 days.

Your Rights

You can delete your account and all associated data at any time by contacting us. To clear local data, use your browser's "Clear Site Data" function or the "Reset draft" button in the onboarding quiz.
