Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 17, 2026 • Official Portal: flyinghorse.online

1. Introduction

Welcome to Flying Horse ("flyinghorse.online", "we", "us", or "our"). We are committed to protecting your personal privacy, transparent data governance, and maintaining user control over personal data. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices regarding the collection, use, processing, and disclosure of information when you access our travel collective, curated itineraries, interactive maps, and creator tools.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information to deliver verified itineraries and facilitate specialist contributions:

  • Author & Profile Information: When you register an account, author profile, or submit a travel story, we store your chosen name, handle, email address, profile biography, and travel specialty tags.
  • User-Generated Itineraries: Waypoint coordinates, itinerary stops, budget disclosures, notes, and photos you choose to publish on the platform.
  • Technical & Log Data: Standard browser request data including IP address, browser type, referring pages, and access timestamps for diagnostic and security purposes.

3. Meta & Instagram API Integration

Flying Horse integrates with Meta Platforms, Inc. APIs (including the Instagram API with Instagram Login and Instagram Graph API) to enable verified travel creators to import photos and link their public creative portfolio to their itineraries.

How We Use Instagram Data:
  • We request only basic media permissions (e.g. instagram_business_basic) strictly to allow authors to select and import their own travel photos.
  • We never sell, monetize, broker, or transfer your Instagram media or tokens to third parties or advertising networks.
  • We do not request or store private direct messages, contacts, or passwords.
  • You can revoke access at any time through your Instagram settings or via our User Data Deletion page.

4. Google Cloud Maps Platform Integration

Our interactive route navigation and coordinate mapping are powered by the Google Maps Platform (Project: flyinghorse / project-bb8ada19-7a8c-4241-836). When interacting with maps, geolocation tiles and route calculations are requested directly from Google. Your use of interactive maps is subject to the Google Privacy Policy.

5. Affiliate Disclosures & Third-Party Services

Flying Horse partners with verified travel providers including Booking.com, Skyscanner, GetYourGuide, and Amazon to provide tested bookings, equipment, and flight options. Clicking affiliate links directs you to partner websites whose privacy policies govern any bookings or purchases you make.

6. User Rights & Data Deletion (GDPR & CCPA)

You have full rights to access, update, export, or permanently delete your personal account data, travel stories, and integrated social connections.

To permanently erase your data or revoke Meta/Instagram tokens, visit our dedicated User Data Deletion Instructions Page or email us at privacy@flyinghorse.online.

7. Cookies & Storage

We use functional browser cookies and localStorage exclusively for session management, preview access, and remembering your map and theme preferences. We do not use intrusive cross-site tracking cookies.
