Our Somewhere Privacy Notice

To produce results, Our Somewhere uses the departure airports, travel month, trip length and currency you choose. It also processes matching destinations, ticket-search results and limited diagnostic records needed to understand whether a search worked.

Our Somewhere does not ask for a name, account password, home address, payment details or passport number. Passport-country selections used for visa-planning links are not stored by Our Somewhere.

Your browser may save your shortlist, whether you dismissed the introductory tutorial and a random analytics identifier. These items remain in your browser’s local storage so the site can remember them across visits.

The analytics identifier is a random UUID stored under our-somewhere-analytics-id-v1. The same identifier is attached to later analytics events so activity can be counted across visits. Clearing this website’s stored browser data resets it.

Our Somewhere does not use advertising cookies. Cloudflare may set the following strictly necessary cookie to help protect the website from automated or malicious traffic.

Cloudflare controls the cookie's duration and settings. Please refer to its current cookie information ↗ for the latest details.

When a live ticket check is available, relevant search details—such as airports, dates, passenger count and preferred currency—are sent securely to the flight-search provider used by Our Somewhere. The service does not make bookings or collect payment.

Flight availability and prices can change until booked. Always verify the final itinerary, fare and entry requirements with the booking provider or airline.

Like most hosted websites, infrastructure providers may process basic technical information such as an IP address, browser type and security logs to deliver, protect and troubleshoot the service. Our Somewhere does not use this information to create traveler profiles.

Our Somewhere uses Cloudflare as a hosting, delivery and security service provider. Cloudflare may process technical information, including IP addresses, browser and device information, request metadata and security logs, to deliver the website, prevent abuse and maintain the availability and security of the service.

Cloudflare may set the strictly necessary __cf_bm cookie for bot detection and traffic management. This cookie is not used by Our Somewhere for advertising or behavioral profiling. Because it is necessary to protect and operate the website, it may be set without analytics consent where permitted by applicable law.

Cloudflare may process information internationally according to its own privacy terms. Read Cloudflare's Privacy Policy ↗.

Our Somewhere uses PostHog as a service provider and data processor for product analytics. Analytics data is sent to PostHog’s United States ingestion region at https://us.i.posthog.com. We use it to understand how the website is used, diagnose failures, measure search quality and improve the product.

The PostHog dashboard is private and is not publicly accessible. No emailed dashboard subscription is enabled. Our Somewhere does not create PostHog person profiles.

The “website visited” event is sent automatically when the application loads. Browser-error events are also automatic. Other analytics events generally correspond to a visitor action or a search operation.

Depending on how you use the website, Our Somewhere may record the following events:

• Website visited.
• Search completed, search failed, or no common destinations found.
• Destination opened.
• Live flight check completed or failed.
• Currency changed.
• Filter applied or cleared.
• Result link shared using the copy-link function.
• Google Flights, Skyscanner or Kayak link clicked.
• Browser error or unhandled browser rejection.
• Live flight-provider request, including whether it came from cache, whether offers were found and how many provider requests were made.

An event may include only the details relevant to that action, such as:

• Mobile or desktop device category.
• The two departure airport codes and destination airport code.
• Selected travel month, trip-length category and currency, including the previous currency when it changes.
• Counts of route candidates, destinations checked, failed or verified, and date windows checked.
• Whether a live check was a priority or expanded check, plus a general outcome or failure-reason category.
• Filter name and selected value.
• Link provider, sharing method and whether copying succeeded.
• Browser-error mechanism: window error or unhandled rejection.
• Live-provider cache status, outcome, offer count, request count and estimated provider cost.

Events are sent through Our Somewhere’s own /api/analytics endpoint rather than directly from a PostHog browser SDK. The server accepts only an explicit allowlist of events and properties, and string properties are limited to 80 characters.

PostHog automatic click capture, session recording, screenshots, person-profile creation and GeoIP enrichment are disabled. Browser error messages, stack traces, page contents and full page URLs are not sent to PostHog.

Our Somewhere deliberately excludes:

• Names, email addresses, payment details and precise location data.
• Passport numbers, passport details, passport-country selections and nationalities.
• Screenshots, free-text feedback and problem descriptions.
• API keys and other secret credentials.
• Full URLs, page contents, browser error messages and stack traces.

Our Somewhere does not include IP addresses as analytics properties and disables PostHog GeoIP enrichment. However, PostHog and the website’s hosting or network providers may technically process an IP address when receiving and transmitting requests.

Because PostHog’s US ingestion region is used, analytics data may be transferred to or processed in the United States. PostHog acts as Our Somewhere’s service provider or processor for this activity. You can read PostHog’s privacy information ↗.

Where permitted, Our Somewhere relies on its legitimate interests in understanding use of the beta, diagnosing failures, measuring search quality and improving the service. Those interests are balanced against the limited, pseudonymous information collected and the safeguards described above.

The website currently has no analytics consent banner or analytics opt-out control. Some countries may require consent before non-essential analytics or browser storage is used; additional controls may therefore be needed before a broader launch in those places. Clearing this website’s stored browser data removes the current anonymous identifier, but a new identifier will be created the next time the application loads.

The “Report a problem” link opens a Google Form. If you voluntarily submit an email address, description or screenshot, that information is used to investigate the issue, reply to you and improve the service. Google’s own privacy terms also apply to the form.

Please avoid including passport numbers, payment details or other sensitive personal information in a report.

Our Somewhere may link to or use services such as Google Flights, SerpApi, Skyscanner, IATA Travel Centre, Ticketmaster and airline or booking websites. These are independent services with their own privacy policies and terms.

Our Somewhere does not sell personal information. Information is shared only with providers needed to operate search, hosting, feedback, security and technical support, or when required by law.

A specific PostHog analytics retention period has not yet been confirmed, so Our Somewhere does not promise a fixed analytics retention period at this time. This notice will be updated after the account setting is confirmed.

Other diagnostic records and submitted feedback are kept only for as long as reasonably necessary to run and improve the beta, investigate problems and prevent misuse.

Reasonable safeguards are used, but no online service can guarantee absolute security.

This notice may change as Our Somewhere adds features or providers. The updated date at the top of this page will show when the notice was revised.
