Privacy Policy
Last updated: 13 September 2026
This policy explains what Trilyt collects, why, and how we handle it. It's written in plain language and is not intended as legal advice.
Who we are
Trilyt is built and operated by AccelRyde Technologies LLP (“we”, “us”, “our”). This policy covers the Trilyt mobile app and this website.
What we collect
- Account information — the details you give us when you create an account, such as your name, email address and profile photo.
- Trip content — the trips you create: destinations, routes, stops, dates and any notes you add.
- Budget entries — the cost figures you enter to estimate or track what a trip costs, including how it is split across a group.
- Location — used to plan routes and, where you enable it, to share your position with people on a ride with you. See below.
- Community activity — the communities you join or create, and requests you send.
- Device and usage information — standard server logs may record browser or device type, operating system and IP address. These are used for security and debugging.
Location data
Location is central to route planning, so the app asks for it. You control it: you can decline, and you can change or revoke the permission at any time in your device settings. Revoking it will limit route and live-sharing features but will not delete your account.
Location shared with a group is visible only to people on that ride, and only while sharing is switched on.
Why we collect it
- To provide the features you are using — planning, routing, budgeting and communities.
- To sync your trips across your devices.
- To improve the product and fix problems.
- To keep the service secure and working.
What we don't do
We do not sell your data. We do not use your trip content or location to target advertising, and we do not share it with advertisers or data brokers.
Sharing
Content you deliberately share — a trip you invite others to, a community you post in — is visible to the people you share it with. That is the feature working as intended.
Beyond that, we share data only with service providers who help us run Trilyt (hosting, crash reporting, email delivery), acting on our instructions and under their own privacy terms; or where we are legally required to.
Retention
We keep your account and trip content for as long as your account is active. Delete a trip and it is removed from your account; delete your account and we remove your personal data, other than anything we must keep for legal or accounting reasons. Server logs are retained for up to 90 days.
Your choices
- Access or correct your information from within the app.
- Turn location permissions on or off in your device settings.
- Request a copy of your data, or ask us to delete your account, by emailing contact@accelryde.com.
Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data. No system is perfectly secure, but if a breach affects your personal data we will tell you and the relevant authorities as required.
Children
Trilyt is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal data. If you believe a child has given us information, email us and we will remove it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a new “last updated” date, and we’ll flag anything significant in the app.
