2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information You Provide

- Accommodation URLs — the Airbnb or Booking.com links you submit for analysis. These are processed in real-time and not permanently stored with your identity.
2.2 Information Collected Automatically
- Usage data — pages visited, features used, time spent on site, referral source.
- Device information — browser type, operating system, screen resolution, language preferences.
- IP address — collected by our analytics providers for approximate geolocation and fraud prevention.
- Cookies and similar technologies — see Section 5 below.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide and improve our review analysis service.
- Send you analysis results via email (when you opt in).
- Understand how users interact with TrueStay to improve the experience.
- Monitor site performance and prevent abuse.
- Comply with legal obligations.
4. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services that may collect data:
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand website traffic and usage patterns. Google may collect your IP address, browser information, and browsing behavior. See Google's Privacy Policy.
Booking.com Affiliate Program (via CJ Affiliate)
TrueStay participates in the Booking.com affiliate program through CJ Affiliate. When you click on accommodation links, CJ may place cookies to track referrals. This helps us earn a commission at no extra cost to you. See Booking.com's Privacy Policy and CJ's Privacy Policy.
Stripe (Payments)
All subscription payments are processed securely by Stripe. TrueStay does not store your card details — they are handled entirely by Stripe. Stripe may collect billing information, IP address, and device data for fraud prevention. See Stripe's Privacy Policy.
PostHog (Product Analytics)
We use PostHog to understand how users interact with TrueStay — such as which features are used and where users encounter difficulties. This data is used solely to improve our service. PostHog collects anonymized event data, device information, and approximate location. See PostHog's Privacy Policy.
Render (Hosting)
Our application is hosted on Render, which may process server logs including IP addresses. See Render's Privacy Policy.
5. Subscriptions, Free Trial & Refund Policy
TrueStay offers paid subscription plans processed via Stripe.
- Free trial — where offered, a free trial gives you temporary access to premium features. You may cancel your free trial at any time before it ends and you will not be charged.
- No refunds — all purchases and subscription payments are final and non-refundable. If you cancel a paid subscription, you retain access until the end of your current billing period; no partial refunds are issued for unused time.
- Cancellation — you can cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle.
If you have a billing question, contact us at hello@truestay.me.
6. Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use:
- Essential cookies — required for the site to function (e.g., theme preference).
- Analytics cookies — placed by Google Analytics and PostHog to measure site usage and improve the product.
- Affiliate cookies — placed by CJ Affiliate and Booking.com when you interact with accommodation links, used to track referrals.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect site functionality.
7. Data Retention
We retain your email address for as long as you remain subscribed to our communications. You can request deletion at any time by contacting us. Analytics data is retained according to our third-party providers' standard retention periods (typically 14–26 months for Google Analytics).
