Your focus is personal. So is your data.

Who this policy covers

This policy applies to the Minutes & Maps desktop application and the Minutes & Maps website. Minutes & Maps and KST Technologies are product and publishing brands owned by King Sum Tong.

Information the application uses

Account and profile information

Minutes & Maps version 1.0.8 supports email-and-password authentication through Supabase. Account and profile information includes the email address and internal user identifier associated with the account, plus profile details such as a display name or avatar when provided. This release does not offer Google, Apple or other social sign-in.

Focus, journey and collection information

App data includes focus sessions, chosen destinations, virtual journey progress and virtual map position. It can also include coins, inventory, companions, vehicles, city stamps, postcards, passport progress and app or journey preferences.

Optional friends and shared-map information

If you use friends features, the service processes friend requests and relationships, presence information and positions on the shared virtual map.

Feedback and operational information

If you submit in-app feedback, Minutes & Maps sends your message with the app page and a summary of your current journey, progress, selected items and online state. The app also records activity events such as app opens, account sign-ins, focus sessions, arrivals and collection or shop actions. Events may be sent without an account identifier while you are signed out, or linked to your account while you are signed in. If an event cannot be sent, the app may queue it locally for later delivery. This app activity is separate from optional website analytics consent.

How information is used

• Authenticate an account and maintain account-linked access through Supabase.
• Run focus sessions and calculate virtual travel progress.
• Save destinations, inventory, companions, vehicles, collections and preferences.
• Provide friend requests, relationships, presence and shared-map features.
• Synchronize account-linked information across supported devices.
• Respond to feedback, support questions and account-deletion assistance requests.
• Protect, maintain and troubleshoot the application and its account services.

Service providers

Supabase provides email-and-password authentication and infrastructure used for account-linked app data, synchronization, optional friends and the authenticated account-deletion function. Supabase processes information on behalf of Minutes & Maps to provide those services.

Resend delivers account emails through the configured authentication mail service. It also delivers replies sent from the support address. OpenFreeMap serves map tiles and fonts when the desktop map loads. GitHub hosts the public installers and updater files. Requests to these services can include ordinary connection information, such as an IP address and browser or app request details. Cloudflare Email Routing forwards messages sent to the support address to a Gmail inbox.

Google provides Google Analytics 4 for this website, but the Google Analytics tag is not loaded or initialized unless you accept analytics. The website does not use Google Analytics for advertising.

Website analytics and your consent

If you accept analytics, Google Analytics 4 receives website usage information such as pages viewed, interactions and browser or device information. This helps Minutes & Maps understand and improve the website. No Google Analytics request is made before acceptance, and declining analytics does not limit the website or downloads.

The website stores your analytics choice in local storage so it can respect that choice on later visits. You can change it at any time through Privacy settings in the footer. The site does not add advertising pixels or session replay.

Storage, retention and deletion

Account-linked information is kept in active systems while it is needed to provide the account and app features described above. Account-owned information is also stored locally by the desktop app where needed for the current profile and synchronization.

When an authenticated deletion succeeds, the app clears account-owned local data only after the server confirms deletion. Limited copies may remain temporarily in service-provider backups, security records or operational logs where applicable. No exact backup or log retention period is claimed, and deletion does not mean that every backup copy disappears immediately.

Feedback or activity records sent without an account identifier cannot be matched to an in-app account deletion automatically. You can contact support with questions about those records.

The in-app steps and alternative assistance route are explained on the account deletion page.

Your choices and questions

You can decline website analytics, choose not to use optional friends features, update available app preferences, or permanently delete an authenticated account under Settings > Account management.

Privacy questions and account assistance can be sent to support@minutesandmaps.com.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when the product, website or service-provider data flows change. A revised policy will show its effective date and describe material changes in clear language.
