If you want to save places and day trips, you can create an account by signing in with Google. This policy explains what data is processed when you visit the site, for what purpose, on what legal basis and how to exercise your rights, in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Spanish Organic Law 3/2018 on the Protection of Personal Data and the Guarantee of Digital Rights (Ley Orgánica 3/2018, de Protección de Datos Personales y garantía de los derechos digitales).

## 2. What data we process

Technical browsing data. When you visit any page, the server receives your IP address, your browser and operating system, the page requested, the date and time, and the referring page. This data is kept in the hosting provider's technical logs.

Searches. What you type into the search box is sent to the server to return results and, like any address visited, may appear in those technical logs. We do not link it to any profile.

Your way of travelling. If you choose a way of travelling, it is stored in your own browser so it can be remembered on the next page. This information is not sent to our server.

Your account, if you create one. When you sign in with Google, we receive from Google your name, your email address, your profile picture and an identifier for your account. We do not receive your password or access to your email, your contacts or your files. We store this data, the date of your last sign-in and what you mark as saved. Anyone visiting a page you have saved sees how many people saved it and, for each one, a circle with their Google profile picture. You can switch yours to your initial at any time in My account. Your name and email are never shown.

Communications. If you write to us by email, we process your address and the content of your message in order to reply.

We do not use third-party analytics or advertising, we do not create profiles and we do not process special categories of data.

## 4. Recipients

We do not disclose data to third parties unless required by law. To operate, the site uses these providers:

OVHcloud (France): hosting of the site and its photographs. It acts as data processor.

Google Ireland Ltd.: sign-in with Google, only if you decide to sign in with your account.

PingCAP (TiDB Cloud), with servers in the United States: the database where accounts and what each one saves are stored. It acts as data processor.

Google Fonts (Google Ireland Ltd.) and Indian Type Foundry (Fontshare): they serve the typefaces. Your browser connects to their servers to download them, so they receive your IP address.

OpenFreeMap and unpkg: they serve the map and its library, only on pages that have a map and when the map comes into view on the screen.

The typeface and map providers receive no data about you from us: the connection is made by your browser when it loads the page.

## 5. International transfers

The accounts database is in the United States; the transfer is covered by standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission. The other providers may process the connection outside the European Economic Area with the safeguards set out in their privacy policies.

## 6. Retention periods

Technical data: as long as the hosting provider keeps its logs, normally a few weeks, unless needed to investigate a security incident.

Your account and what you save: until you delete the account. You can do this yourself, at any time, from the My account page; it is deleted immediately along with everything you had saved.

Your way of travelling: until you change it or clear your browser data.

Emails: as long as needed to deal with your enquiry.

## 7. Cookies

Geocalia does not use analytics or advertising cookies. It only sets technical cookies if you sign in. The details are in the cookie policy.

## 8. Your rights

You can exercise your rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction of processing and portability by writing to louzettech@gmail.com and stating which right you wish to exercise. We reply within one month.

If you consider that we have not handled your request properly, you can lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos, www.aepd.es).

## 9. Minors

The site is not aimed at children under 14 and we do not knowingly collect data from minors.

## 10. Changes to this policy

We will update this policy when the services we use or the regulations change. If we introduce analytics, advertising or affiliate links that use cookies, we will reflect this here and ask for your consent before activating them. The date of the last update appears at the top of this page.
