Lista.
Privacy Policy
Last updated: 3 June 2026
Lista is a simple app for saving places you love and sharing them with
friends. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the control you
have. We've tried to keep it plain — no fine print games.
The short version. We collect your email (to sign you
in), the lists and places you save, and who you share them with. We don't
run ads, we don't sell your data, we don't use advertising or tracking
tools, and we don't follow your location in the background. You can delete
everything, including your account, from inside the app.
Who we are
Lista (“we”, “us”) is the data controller for the information described
here. You can reach us at
hello@listaa.co
for any privacy question or request.
What we collect
- Account information — your email address, used to
create your account and sign you in. If you sign in with Apple or Google,
we receive the name and email those services share with us.
- Your profile — a display name and, optionally, an
avatar image.
- Your content — the lists you create and the places you
save: place names, areas and cities, map coordinates read from links you
paste, and any notes you write. We also store who you choose to share a
list with.
- Basic technical logs — when the app talks to our
servers, our hosting provider records standard request information such as
IP address and timestamps, to keep the service secure and reliable.
About location. Lista does not track where you
are. The only location data we handle is the place inside a map link you
choose to paste — for example, a Google Maps link you want to save.
How we use it
- To create and secure your account and sign you in.
- To save, sync and display your lists and places across your devices.
- To let you share lists with the friends you choose, and to show you
lists friends have shared with you.
- To publish a list at a private web address when you share it, so
someone without the app can open it. That page shows the list's name and
its places — including any notes you wrote on them, and the name credited
beside a note. Anyone holding the link can view it, so treat the link
itself as the key. You can make a list private at any time, which turns
its link off.
- To keep the service working, diagnose problems, and prevent abuse.
We do not use your information for advertising, and we do not sell it.
Services we rely on
To run Lista we share the minimum necessary with a few trusted providers:
- Supabase — hosts our database and handles sign-in. Your
account and content are stored here. (Servers in the EU / Frankfurt.)
- Google Maps Platform — when you paste a Google Maps
link, the app opens that link to read the place, and uses Google's
Geocoding and Static Maps services to fill in the area, city and country
and to show a small map image of each place. When a place can't be found
from its coordinates alone — a venue named in a post or a screenshot, for
example — we also ask Google's Places service for it, which means sending
that name, and the city we think it's in, to Google. Google
receives the request needed to answer, such as the place's coordinates or
the name being looked up. See Google's
Privacy Policy.
- Email delivery — used to send your sign-in code.
Your choices and rights
- Edit or delete any list, place or note at any time.
- Delete your account from inside the app, which removes
your profile and the content tied to it.
- Access or export — email us and we'll help you get a
copy of your data or delete it.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights (for example
under the GDPR) to access, correct, or restrict use of your data. Contact us
and we'll honour them.
Keeping data, and keeping it safe
We keep your information for as long as your account is active. When you
delete your account, we delete the data associated with it, except where we
must keep limited records to meet legal obligations. We use industry-standard
measures, including encryption in transit and database access controls, to
protect your information.
Children
Lista isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect
their information. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us
and we'll remove it.
Changes to this policy
If we make meaningful changes, we'll update the date above and, where
appropriate, let you know in the app.
