TickTrip is a travel planning app designed to help users organise trips, packing lists, to-do lists, itinerary items, travel documents and related trip information.
TickTrip is operated by an independent UK-based developer and is not operated by a company.
TickTrip is designed as an offline-first app. Information you enter into the app is stored locally on your device. This may include trip details, destinations, dates, packing items, to-do items, itinerary details and documents or images that you choose to add.
TickTrip may request access to your device camera only when you choose to use a feature that requires it, such as adding or capturing a document, image or other trip-related content. Camera access is not used in the background.
Information stored in TickTrip is used to provide the app’s core travel planning features. If you choose to sign in with Google, your account information is used for authentication and to support optional cloud features where available, such as syncing and sharing trips. If you connect an assistant, we also use supported trip information to carry out your requests through that connection. We do not sell your personal information or use it for advertising. External providers have their own policies.
You may optionally sign in using your Google account. Sign-in is handled via Supabase authentication. This login is optional and is intended to support optional cloud capabilities, including syncing your trip data across devices and sharing trips where available.
Your app data is stored locally on your device by default. If you choose to sign in and enable optional sync or sharing features, relevant data may also be stored in connected cloud services to provide those features. Removing the app may delete locally stored data, depending on your device settings and backup configuration.
TickTrip uses a local-first model, which means your trip data is primarily stored on your device. For optional cloud features where available, data is transmitted using encrypted connections provided by our authentication and infrastructure providers. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device, including device lock, backup settings and account credentials.
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion or export of your personal data, and to withdraw consent for optional processing. Most locally stored app data can be removed directly from your device by deleting items in-app or uninstalling TickTrip.
Local data remains on your device until you delete it. When you delete synced data, it is removed from normal app use immediately and the deletion is sent to your other devices when they sync. A deletion record and associated synced data may remain in our cloud systems for up to 90 days to prevent an offline device from restoring it. It is then permanently removed through automated cleanup. Devices returning after this period are refreshed from the current cloud state. Separately, if a signed-in cloud account has no authenticated cloud activity for more than 365 days, the cloud account and its synced database data may be permanently deleted. Data kept locally on a device is not deleted by this inactive-account cleanup. Data held in service-level backups follows the provider's separate backup-retention process. Information already sent to ChatGPT follows OpenAI’s retention and deletion rules, as explained below.
TickTrip may request access to camera, photos/media, files/documents and notifications only when needed for specific features you choose to use. Permissions are feature-driven and optional, and can be managed in your device settings.
TickTrip does not share your personal data with third parties for marketing or advertising. If you choose to share trip information, documents or other content using device sharing features, that action is controlled by you and by the apps or services you share with. Connecting ChatGPT also allows supported trip information to be shared with OpenAI when you use the integration, as explained below.
Account-to-account trip sharing, where available, requires a signed-in recipient to accept an invitation. Recipients receive only the shared destination, dates and limited itinerary details, including item titles, travel services, venue names, times, booking status and airport references. Any personal information entered in those shared fields is visible to recipients. The owner's private notes, booking references, seats, costs, documents, packing and to-dos are excluded. Owners and recipients see relevant account display names to manage sharing. A display name comes from profile information and may itself contain an email address; a separate email address or profile photo is not sent through trip sharing. The app also receives trip, itinerary and membership identifiers. We retain invitation and membership status, expiry and access changes with the cloud trip until trip or account deletion; invitation tokens are stored as hashes.
An owner can revoke access, and a recipient can leave. This prevents future server access. A recipient who is offline may retain previously downloaded shared details until their app reconnects; copied or externally saved information cannot be remotely erased. Trip sharing is separate from optional assistant access. Downloaded shared trips and your personal packing and to-do lists are stored on your device and can be included in a portable app backup, which can be password encrypted. Your personal lists are not shared with the owner or synced to other devices. Signing out, leaving or losing access hides the trip and lists; they remain on the device. A restored trip becomes available after the same account's membership is checked again.
Connecting ChatGPT is optional and only available for accounts with assistant access enabled. Public connectors and GPT plugins are awaiting release and approval. In TickTrip Settings → Account & Sync, you can turn on “Allow ChatGPT access”; this enables your account permission now but does not connect ChatGPT. You will still approve the connection separately when it is available. Your preference is stored until you change it or your cloud account is deleted. Alongside your current choice, we store when you last changed it and an informational permission-scope version. This is separate from software releases and updates to this privacy policy. We do not keep a consent history, wording archive or IP address for this setting. When a connection is available, you sign in to TickTrip and choose Allow on the connection page. Signing in alone does not connect an assistant. You can keep using TickTrip offline without it.
ChatGPT can find destinations, read your synced trips and supported itinerary entries, and create or update them at your request. This includes:
These tools cannot delete trips or entries, make bookings or payments, or access all your cloud data. Saved travel details are not live service updates. Private booking references, confirmation and seat numbers, notes, costs, private addresses and contacts, and vehicle registrations remain unavailable. The supported travel details above are protected during transfer and in TickTrip’s cloud storage, but do not use your additional sync-password encryption. Information encrypted with that password can only be unlocked on your authorised devices; the assistant has no decryption key. Photos, documents and tickets stored only on your device are unavailable through this connection, as are packing and to-do lists.
When you ask ChatGPT to use TickTrip, relevant information returned by these tools is sent to and processed by OpenAI. OpenAI may retain it and use it, including for model improvement, according to your account or workspace settings and applicable policies. Review OpenAI’s privacy information below before connecting. TickTrip’s cloud security and deletion rules do not control copies held by OpenAI.
Turn off “Allow ChatGPT access” in TickTrip Settings → Account & Sync while online; the app confirms your choice after the server saves it. This blocks subsequent requests, including existing connections. You can also disconnect TickTrip in ChatGPT’s connection settings. To request revocation of the connection’s authorisation, contact support@ticktrip.app. Revoking the authorisation also blocks subsequent requests. Disconnecting or withdrawing access does not delete information already sent to OpenAI; use OpenAI’s data controls to manage those copies separately.
TickTrip fetches indicative reference exchange rates directly fromFrankfurter. Requests may run when you open the calculator, return to the app or change your currency or trips. They include currency codes (pairs such as GBP/USD), including currencies suggested by your saved destinations. Frankfurter and the network infrastructure delivering its API may receive your IP address and other network metadata when handling these requests. We do not send trip details, destination names, locations, travel dates, entered amounts, account identifiers or device identifiers to Frankfurter. No device geolocation is needed.
Cached rates, observation/check timestamps and manually selected calculator pairs stay locally on your device and are not synced to Supabase. Manual pairs are included in your local backup settings; disposable rate caches are excluded from exported backups. Old cache entries and deleted-trip preferences are pruned to bound storage. Your existing preferred app currency can still sync if you use account sync. Saved rates work offline when available. These are dated reference rates, not a guaranteed card, cash or transaction exchange price. SeeFrankfurter’s service and privacy informationand its licence and terms.
TickTrip may use platform services provided by Google Play, Apple or your device operating system for app installation, updates, permissions and crash/error handling. If you use optional Google sign-in, TickTrip also uses Supabase and Google authentication services. Optional ChatGPT connections use OpenAI. These providers may process information outside your country, including outside the UK or EEA, under their applicable safeguards and privacy policies:Google,Supabase,Apple,OpenAI.

The TickTrip website uses minimal essential cookies and basic server logging required for site operation, security and performance. We do not use advertising cookies.
TickTrip does not use advertising SDKs or build individual advertising profiles.
When you install a Community List or tap an individual recommended product link, the app attempts to report that action to TickTrip. Each recorded event contains only the action type, the template or product identifier and the time received by our server. These records do not include account or installation identifiers, IP addresses, user agents, country, device timezone or trip details. Normal network requests still reach our hosting infrastructure and may be subject to security logging and rate limits.
We retain this event history to understand content popularity and changes over time; it is not automatically deleted when the original content is removed. Reporting does not require sign-in and failures do not prevent installing lists or opening product links. Product links open directly with the provider, whose own privacy policy applies.
TickTrip is not specifically directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
You can control app permissions, including camera access, through your device settings. You can also delete data entered into the app using app features, or uninstall the app from your device. Optional assistant access and previously shared information can be managed separately, as described inOptional AI Assistant Integrations (ChatGPT).
If you use optional account and cloud features, you can request deletion of your synced account data via ourdata deletion request pageor by contacting us atsupport@ticktrip.app.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. We will notify you of significant changes to how we use or share your information before those changes take effect and request fresh consent where required.

TickTrip was built offline-first. Your data stays on your device by default. If you choose to use optional cloud sync, which is enabled when you choose to sign in, selected trip data can be securely stored so it stays available across your signed-in devices, with future web access where available. Some personal fields receive enhanced protection using the additional password you set after signing in. Photos and documents are not currently synced.
