Privacy Policy
Where you've spent your time is sensitive by nature. This page sets out, plainly, what TaxTraveller collects, why, where it's kept, and what say you have over it.
Overview
This privacy policy explains how Izone Ltd ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and protects personal data when you use TaxTraveller — our tool for tracking the days you spend in each country, so you can stay ahead of tax residency thresholds.
TaxTraveller is built and operated by Izone Ltd, a company registered in Ireland. As an Irish company, we process personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Irish Data Protection Act 2018.
Information We Collect
TaxTraveller is deliberately narrow in scope — it exists to log trips and tally days, not to build a profile of you. We collect:
We don't use cookies, trackers, or third-party analytics on the TaxTraveller website or in the app.
Location Data
By default, TaxTraveller works entirely from manual entry: you tell us where you were and for how long, on your own schedule. Nothing about your location is collected unless you add it yourself.
Some users prefer a faster way to log a trip. If you turn on location assist, TaxTraveller can read your device's current location and create a country stay record, it creates these records at midnight and will read the location in the background.
Manually
Location is entered by you and a record is created and stored — never in the background.
Automatically using Location Assist
At midnight, in the background, it creates a country location record and stores it in your app.
You can turn location assist off at any time in your device settings or within the app. Doing so has no effect on manual logging — it simply removes the shortcut.
Why We Need It
We only ask for what the service itself needs to function:
Legal Basis for Processing
| Data | Basis |
|---|---|
| Trip records, contact details | Performance of a contract — Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, necessary to provide the tracking service you've signed up for. |
| Location data (assist feature) | Consent — Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Given by enabling the feature and withdrawable at any time. |
Storage & Security
Trip records are stored on your phone. They are not uploaded to the cloud. Your account login detials are stored on secure, password-protected servers operated by Izone Ltd.
We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect your data, including access controls and encryption in transit. No system is perfectly secure, but we treat travel and location data with the same care we'd want applied to our own.
Retention
Year-by-year history is kept on your phone. If you close your account, we'll delete your personal account login data within a reasonable period, except where we're required to retain it by law.
Sharing of Data
We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes. The only exceptions are:
Your Rights
Under GDPR, you have the right to:
Access
Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Correct
Fix inaccurate or incomplete data.
Erase
Request deletion — the "right to be forgotten."
Restrict & object
Limit or object to certain processing.
Portability
Receive your data in a portable format.
Withdraw consent
Turn off location assist at any time, with no effect on manual logging.
You can also lodge a complaint with the Irish Data Protection Commission (dataprotection.ie), or your local supervisory authority. To exercise any of these rights directly, contact us below.
Children's Privacy
TaxTraveller is intended for individuals managing their own tax residency and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we'll remove it.
Changes to This Policy
We keep this policy under review and will update this page when our practices change. The date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
