Privacy Policy
Last updated · June 2026
Tracé is built to need as little of your data as possible. This policy explains what is collected when you use trace.wuhan.dev, and — just as importantly — what is not.
Your GPS tracks never leave your browser
When you upload a track, it is parsed and rendered entirely on your device. We do not receive, upload, transmit, or store your track files. Closing the tab discards them.
Map tiles
To draw maps, your browser requests public map tiles through our caching proxy. These requests necessarily include the map area being viewed so the correct tiles can be returned. We use short-lived caching to improve performance and reduce load on upstream providers; we do not use tile requests to build a profile of you or to identify you.
Purchases
If you buy an unlock, the transaction is processed by our third-party payment provider acting as the merchant of record. The provider collects the billing information needed to complete the payment (for example, your email, payment method, and country for tax purposes) under its own privacy policy. We receive only a transaction record — such as an order ID, the product, and the amount — and not your full payment details.
Preferences
We store your theme and language choices in your browser’s local storage so the site remembers them between visits. These never leave your device and are not tracking cookies.
Analytics
If we use analytics, we use only privacy-respecting, aggregate measurement that does not identify individual visitors. We do not sell personal data.
Your rights
Because we hold almost no personal data — essentially transaction records for purchases — you can email us to ask what we hold, request a copy, or request deletion, subject to records we must keep for tax and accounting.
Children
The Service is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
