Privacy policy
Island Humper keeps as little about you as it can. In plain words:
What we store
As a guest: your quiz answers (with the town you set off from, if you give one), your exes, your swipes and your matches, tied to a cookie on this browser. If you register: also your email, first name, age range and whether you want to meet fellow travellers later (and when you said so).
Why
To build your deck, keep your matches and island count, and count how many people admire an island in a month. Your email is only used to send magic links.
Cookies
One cookie remembers who you are, one your swipe session and, if you pick one, one your language. No ads, no Google Analytics, no tracking across sites. Page views are counted by Plausible, which sets no cookies.
Travel crew
Only if you tick the box do we count you for a future feature that introduces travellers headed to the same island in the same month. You can untick it any time in your account.
Who sees it
Nobody else. Admirer counts are numbers, never names. We don't sell or share your data.
Deleting
Delete your account in your account settings and your email, answers, exes, swipes, matches and shared cards are deleted at once. Product statistics we kept along the way stay, with nothing linking them to you.
