This Privacy Policy explains how Trimonke ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and safeguards your information when you use our mobile application, HermesAI.

1. Information We Collect

To provide you with a highly personalized travel and exploration experience, we collect the following types of information:

• Personal Information: Basic profile details provided during account creation.
• Travel Preferences: Data regarding your selected routes, travel concepts, group size, and trip durations used by the Trip Planner.
• Location Data: Real-time and approximate location data to power the Place Finder, enabling us to show you top-rated and hidden local spots.
• Camera & Image Data: Images captured through your device's camera to utilize the Recognizer feature, which identifies monuments and historical buildings.
• Subscription Data: Information related to your membership tier (Normal, Explorer, or Marco Polo) processed securely via third-party providers (Apple or Google).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected data for the following purposes:

• To generate custom, day-by-day itineraries via our AI Trip Planner.
• To instantly analyze buildings and historical artifacts through the Recognizer feature to act as your digital guide.
• To discover and recommend the best local venues near you using the Place Finder.
• To apply appropriate usage limits based on your active membership tier (Normal, Explorer, or Marco Polo).
• To improve and optimize our AI models for better travel recommendations.

3. AI Integration & Data Processing

HermesAI is powered by advanced Artificial Intelligence to analyze travel concepts and image data. When you use the Recognizer or Trip Planner, anonymized data (such as image structures or generic travel criteria) may be shared with our AI service providers to generate accurate responses. Your personal identity is never used to train external public AI models.

4. Device Permissions (Camera & Location)

HermesAI requires specific device permissions to function effectively. The Place Finder requires access to Location Services to fetch nearby places. The Recognizer requires Camera access to identify historical sites. You can manage or revoke these permissions at any time via your device settings, though doing so will disable these specific features.

5. Subscriptions and Payments

HermesAI offers a free trial alongside Normal, Explorer, and Marco Polo tiers. All subscription payments are handled entirely by the App Store or Google Play Store. Trimonke does not collect, process, or store your credit card or sensitive financial information on our servers.

6. Data Retention & Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data. Your saved routes, recognized landmarks, and account preferences are retained as long as your account remains active. You can request the permanent deletion of your account and all associated data at any time through the app settings.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect new features or legal requirements. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the revised policy on this page.
