1. Who We Are
Travvl Hunt is operated by EduLearn Connect. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use the Travvl Hunt platform ("the Platform").
2. Information We Collect
Information you provide
- Account information: Name, email address, and authentication credentials when you create an account.
- Payment information: Processed securely by our third-party payment provider. We do not store your full credit card details.
- Hunt activity: The answers you submit, your scores, badges, and any display name you add to a leaderboard.
- Guest profiles: If you use the Platform as a guest, a display name you optionally provide.
Information collected automatically
- Device and browser data: Browser type, operating system, screen size, and language preferences.
- Usage data: Pages visited, tasks completed, hunt progress, badges earned, and time spent on the Platform.

3. How We Use Your Information
- To provide and operate the Platform, including tracking hunt progress and issuing badges and certificates.
- To process payments for paid hunts.
- To improve the Platform experience based on aggregated usage patterns.
- To communicate with you about your account, purchases, or Platform updates.
- To support research and development of future features and hunt experiences.
4. Hunt Activity
We store your answers, scores, and badges so you can pick a hunt back up and keep what you've earned. If you choose to save a score to a leaderboard, the display name you enter and that score are visible to other travelers. We may use aggregated, anonymized results to improve question design.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with:
- Payment processors: Paddle, our Merchant of Record, receives the information needed to complete your transaction securely (such as your email and payment details) and processes it under its own privacy policy.
- Hosting and infrastructure providers: To operate the Platform.
- Legal authorities: When required by law or to protect our rights.
6. Data Storage and Security
Your data is stored using industry-standard security practices. Guest user data is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers unless you create an account. We use encryption in transit (HTTPS) for all Platform communications.
7. Your Rights
You may:
- Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction or deletion of your personal data.
- Remove your display name and score from any leaderboard.
- Delete your account and associated data by contacting us.
8. Cookies and Local Storage
The Platform uses browser localStorage to persist your hunt state, preferences, and progress. We may use cookies for analytics and session management. You can clear localStorage through your browser settings, but this will reset your hunt progress.
9. Children's Privacy
The Platform is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected such information, please contact us immediately.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Platform constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
