Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2026
Baddies Abroad is operated by REPDBYLOVE, a business based in Ontario, Canada ("we", "us", "our"). This policy explains what personal information we collect through baddiesabroad.ca, why we collect it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and the choices you have. It's written to meet Canada's federal privacy law (PIPEDA) and Quebec's privacy law (Law 25).
1. Who is responsible for your information
Our Privacy Officer is Ms. M. Daniel, REPDBYLOVE. You can reach her at info@repdbylove.com with any question, request or complaint about your personal information.
2. What we collect
- Questionnaire answers, such as your citizenship, where you live and plan to live, family ties, property, income types and days spent in Canada. We use them to produce your residency classification and report.
- Account details: email address, display name, current country, work type and status, and an optional profile photo and dashboard banner.
- What you add to your dashboard (members): trips and travel logs (including any income amounts you enter), notes, calendar events, filing checklist progress, relocation plans and saved reports.
- Payment records: payments are handled by Stripe. We receive the purchase details, your email and your subscription status, but never your full card number.
- Messages you send us through the contact form (name, email and message), and your email address if you join our mailing list.
- Records we keep to run the service: when you accepted our Terms, a daily count of how often you use our AI tools (to keep costs fair), and a log of emails we send you.
- Technical information: our hosting provider receives your IP address, browser type and the pages you request, as every website does, to deliver and secure the site.
We don't use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies, and we don't sell or rent your personal information.
3. How we use it
- To produce your residency classification, report and dashboard tools.
- To run your account and membership, process payments and send receipts and account emails.
- To answer your messages and send our newsletter if you've asked for it (you can unsubscribe at any time).
- To keep the service secure, prevent abuse and meet our legal and tax obligations.
Your residency classification is calculated automatically from your answers. It's an educational estimate to help you understand your situation, not a decision about you, and it has no legal effect. You can ask us how it was produced, and correct your answers by retaking the questionnaire.
4. AI features
Some tools (the assistant, the trip planner and visa briefings) use artificial intelligence. What you type into them is sent through Lovable's AI service to an AI provider, such as OpenAI or Google, to create a response. We don't store your chat messages. Please don't enter information you don't want to share, such as your Social Insurance Number, passport number or bank details. AI responses can be wrong, so always check important details.
5. Reports: what we keep and what we don't
- One-time reports: your report stays in your account for 30 days so you can view and download it. After 30 days we delete the report, the record of the purchase and your questionnaire answers, unless you've become a member. We don't store a copy of the PDF; it's created when you download it. Stripe keeps the payment receipt.
- Members (annual or monthly): your reports and answers are saved to your account so you can come back to them, until you delete your account.
6. Who we share it with
We share personal information only with the service providers that help us run Baddies Abroad, and only what each one needs:
- Lovable (Lovable Cloud): website hosting, database, file storage and email delivery.
- Stripe: payments and billing.
- AI providers (through Lovable): to answer requests in our AI tools, as described above.
Your browser also loads fonts from Google Fonts and destination photos from Wikipedia, so those services receive your IP address. We may disclose information if the law requires it, or to a buyer if the business is ever sold, in which case this policy would continue to protect it.
7. Where your information is stored
Our service providers store and process information on servers outside Canada, including in the United States. Information stored outside Canada is subject to the laws of that country and may be accessed by its courts or authorities. We choose providers that protect information to a standard comparable to Canadian law.
8. How long we keep it
- One-time reports and their questionnaire answers: deleted 30 days after purchase, unless you become a member.
- Account information, saved reports and dashboard content: until you delete them or close your account.
- Payment receipts: kept by Stripe, our payment processor, for as long as tax law requires.
- Mailing list: until you unsubscribe.
- Contact form messages: as long as needed to answer you and keep a record of our conversation.
9. Your choices and rights
You can ask to see the personal information we hold about you, correct it, or have it deleted. You can delete your account at any time from Account Settings, which deletes your profile, saved reports, uploaded photos and dashboard content. You can also withdraw consent to optional uses, such as the newsletter, at any time. To make any request, email info@repdbylove.com. We'll answer within 30 days.
If you're not satisfied with our answer, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, or, in Quebec, the Commission d'accès à l'information.
10. Your browser
We use your browser's storage only for things the site needs to work: keeping you signed in, saving your questionnaire progress on your device, and remembering layout preferences. Clearing your browser data removes them.
11. Security
Information is encrypted in transit and at rest, and each member can only access her own data. No system is perfectly secure, so please use a strong, unique password. If a privacy breach creates a real risk of significant harm, we'll notify you and the privacy authorities as the law requires.
12. Age
Baddies Abroad is for adults 18 and over. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone younger. If you believe we have, contact us and we'll delete it.
13. Changes to this policy
We'll post any changes here with a new "Last updated" date, and email members about important changes.
