Privacy
How this public calculator treats information.
Who operates this site
Before Tickets is operated by Shinolin Govender in South Africa. This page describes the public website. It is not legal advice.
No accounts
The website calculator does not create an account or a password. We do not save your trip to a profile. You can optionally join the app waitlist with an email after an estimate.
What you send
When you submit the form we send destination, departure city, travel month, nights, travellers, travel style, and a security-check token to our backend (hosted on Supabase). The estimate is returned to your browser. We do not store the trip text against a user record.
Who else sees those details
The backend asks Google Gemini to produce an indicative average. That provider receives the trip details you typed. Google’s terms apply to that request. A paid Gemini key is required in production so this path is not run on Google’s free tier.
If you join the waitlist we store the email you typed, the corridor if one was selected, and optional campaign tags from the link you arrived on (source, medium, campaign). That row lives in Supabase. It is not a booking, not a live quote, and not a signed-in account. If you later create an account with the same email, we may link that waitlist row to the account. A signed-in Pro coach may store a daily nudge receipt (kind and date) on that account so the same check-in is not recorded twice. We do not sell the list.
What we store
To limit abuse we store a one-way hash derived from network information and a server secret, plus a timestamp. We do not store the trip text in that log. The hash is not reversible to an identity we can use for marketing, and we cannot match it back to an email address later.
Security check
Cloudflare Turnstile runs a security check in the browser. That service may set cookies or similar technology according to Cloudflare’s own terms.
Your requests
Because this site has no accounts and does not keep trip text, there is no profile to export or delete. Email shinolin.govender21@gmail.com if you have a privacy question. We will answer it. We cannot identify your hashed log row from an email address.
The native app is not this launch
A signed-in iOS or Android app is not part of this website. When that product launches it will have its own privacy notice, including account deletion and export.
