By using our website, you hereby consent to our Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.

Personal Information We May Collect

Here’s an overview of the information we collect when you interact with our App, and examples of how we use the specific types of information. We may collect:

  • Account data, such as your first and last name, organization name, email addresses, phone number, profile picture, and user name.
  • Your contacts’ phone numbers (if you choose to authorize this). To help users connect with people they know, we offer them the option to invite friends to join them on TravelTube. To take advantage of this feature, users can opt in to share phone numbers from their address book or add phone numbers manually.
  • Names of friends you choose to invite to join you on the App.
  • Conversations that moderators and speakers have in TravelTube rooms. ****We temporarily record the audio in a room while the room is live. These conversations are deleted unless a user reports a Trust and Safety violation while the room is active. In those cases, we encrypt and retain the audio for the purposes of investigating the incident, and then delete it when the investigation is complete. We only record what can be heard in a room; we never record audio data from (i) muted speakers/moderators and (ii) listeners/audience members.
  • Interests, usage, and connections, including information about your interests (if you choose to add them) and how you use the App, such as the types of TravelTube conversations you engage in, content you share, features you use, actions you take, people or accounts you interact and connect with, and the time, frequency, and duration of your use.
  • Communications that we exchange with users when they contact us with questions or feedback, including feedback about interacting with other users.
  • Payment and transactional data including name, payment card information, bank account number, billing information, and your transaction history. This information is collected by our payment provider, Stripe, and TravelTube does not have access to payment card numbers. In addition to this Privacy Policy and our terms of service, information related to your payments or purchases is also processed according to Stripe’s services agreement and privacy policy.
  • Information provided by social media companies, if you interact with our pages on their services or connect your social media accounts. Connecting your social media accounts allows the App to authenticate your identity and access limited information about those accounts. The information that social networking accounts provide to TravelTube may depend on the privacy settings you have with each company, so please consult their privacy and data practices.
  • Device data, such as device IP address (and derived location), device name and operating system, browser type and settings, telecommunications provider, operating system, the date and time of App use, interactions with the App, and the time, frequency, and duration of the interactions.
