Account & Sign In
Everything you need to know about your TravelType account, sign-in options, privacy, and how to delete your data.
Do I need an account?
No, you can browse top places without one. For personal recommendations you need to sign in — takes under a minute via Email, Google, or Facebook.
How do I sign in?
Go to the sign-in page and pick your method: magic link via email (just click), Google, or Facebook. You'll get a link sent to your email — no password to remember.
Is my profile public by default?
No, your profile is private by default — only you see your ratings. You can make it public anytime in settings if you want; then it's viewable at /@<username>.
Can I make my profile public later?
Yes. Pick a username (during onboarding or anytime in settings) and toggle your profile to public. You need a username to go public.
How do I deactivate or delete my account?
In Settings → Data you can deactivate your account yourself anytime — your profile is then hidden everywhere (including on ratings) and you're signed out; signing in again reactivates it. For permanent deletion of all your data, just send us an email — we'll take care of it.
Can I export or download my data?
Yes. Email us to request a copy of your data (GDPR Art. 15 + 20). We'll return all your data as a JSON file within 30 days.
