Trend LegendPrivacy Policy
Effective October 31, 2026 · trendlegend.app
Trend Legend ("we", "us") is an app for discovering, voting on and sharing local places. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. If you have questions, email support@trendlegend.com.
What we collect
- Account information. When you sign in with Google or with email and password, we receive your name, email address, a unique account ID, when your account was created, when you last signed in, and how you sign in.
- Your activity. Your likes and passes on places, your token balance and history, the photos and captions you post, reports you file, and your app settings and progress.
- Location. If you allow it, your device's location is used to find places near you. Location is used to search for nearby places and is not stored on our servers. If you type a town instead, that town is saved with your settings so the app opens there next time.
- Business applications. If you apply to claim a business, we collect the details you enter, such as the business name, your name and role, a contact email, and any coupons or giveaways you create.
- Technical information. Basic information needed to run and protect the app, such as security checks that confirm requests come from the real app.
How we use it
- To run the app: show nearby places, count votes, keep your tokens and progress, and display leaderboards.
- To keep the community safe: screen uploaded photos for inappropriate content, review reports, and suspend accounts that break the rules.
- To review and manage business claims.
- To contact you about your account when needed.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.
What other people can see
Your display name, the photos and captions you post, your photo count and your weekly vote count (on leaderboards) are public. Your email address, token balance, individual votes and account details are private.
Services we use
Trend Legend uses these services, which process data on our behalf:
- Firebase (Google) for sign-in and for storing account data, votes and photos.
- Google Maps Platform for finding places and showing place details and photos.
- Google Cloud Vision for screening uploaded photos for inappropriate content.
- reCAPTCHA / Firebase App Check for protecting the app from abuse.
- Stripe for processing business payments (plans, setup fees and token purchases). Card details go directly to Stripe and are never stored by Trend Legend.
Your browser also keeps some app data on your device (for example, your settings and recently loaded places) so the app loads quickly.
Keeping and deleting your data
We keep your account data while your account exists. You can delete your account at any time from your Profile in the app. This removes your profile, tokens, saved progress, photos and business application. You can also email us to ask for a copy or deletion of your data.
Security
Data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Server-side security rules control who can read or change each piece of data, so other users cannot see your private account information.
Age requirements
Trend Legend is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. The 21 & Up section, which includes bars and liquor stores, is only for people 21 or older.
Changes
If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page. Significant changes will also be announced in the app.
