Paraguide is in preview. This page explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. If anything is unclear, email hello@paraguide.io.
What we collect
- Your email, when you join the waitlist or save your flying review.
- The flight tracks you choose to upload (IGC files) and the data we derive from them: your flight stats, the sites you flew, and your wrapped summary. IGC files contain the time and GPS location of your flights.
- Anything optional you give us, such as your XContest username.
- Basic technical data, your browser type and IP address, used to run the service and keep it secure.
Why we use it
- To build your flying review and, if you ask us to, save and share it.
- To email you about your waitlist spot and when we launch. We will not send you marketing you did not ask for.
- To improve Paraguide and its coaching, using flight data in aggregate or de-identified form.
Legal basis
Under UK and EU GDPR we rely on your consent, you choose to upload your flights and sign up, and on our legitimate interest in running and improving the product. You can withdraw consent at any time.
Where it is stored, and for how long
Your data is held by our hosting provider (Supabase), and uploaded files are kept in private storage. We keep it while Paraguide is in preview or your account is active, and delete it on request.
Sharing
We do not sell your data. Your flying review stays private unless you choose to share it, and a shared review is reachable only through an unguessable link you control. We use a small number of providers to run the service (hosting and email), each bound to protect your data.
Flying-site data
Flying-site information and imagery come from ParaglidingEarth, used under the Creative Commons BY-SA licence. Media served from third parties may receive your IP address at the moment it loads in your browser.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct, or delete your data, or withdraw consent, by emailing hello@paraguide.io. You can also complain to your data protection authority (in the UK, the ICO).
Children
Paraguide is for adults and is not intended for anyone under 16.
Changes
We will update this page when our practices change, with a new date at the top.
