Information we may process

Location information

If you choose to use your current location, PickSomething may process latitude and longitude coordinates to find suitable places nearby. Your browser or device controls whether location permission is granted.

Search preferences

Search information may include selected area, travel distance, group type, budget, activity preferences, indoor or outdoor preference and similar search choices.

Family search information

Family searches may include an age or age range used to make recommendations more appropriate. PickSomething does not ask for a child's name as part of the recommendation search.

Contact information

If you contact us, we may receive your name, email address, subject, message and any other information you choose to provide.

Technical and usage information

Technical or usage information may include device and browser information, IP address, security information, searches performed, recommendations shown, results skipped and links selected.

Why we use information

Information may be used to operate PickSomething, provide nearby recommendations, respond to enquiries, maintain security, diagnose technical issues and improve the service.

Our lawful bases

Depending on the activity, PickSomething may rely on legitimate interests, consent or compliance with a legal obligation as the lawful basis for processing personal information.

Where we rely on legitimate interests, those interests include operating, securing and improving PickSomething and responding to users.

Service providers

PickSomething uses third-party services including website hosting and infrastructure providers, mapping and place information services, security providers, analytics services and affiliate or booking partners.

PickSomething is built using Wix services. Google Maps Platform and Google Places services may be used to retrieve information about nearby places.

Automated recommendations

PickSomething uses automated rules and scoring to rank places according to search preferences. This ranking is designed to suggest things to do and is not intended to make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects.

How long information is kept

Personal information is kept only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and where records are required for security, dispute resolution or legal obligations.

International processing

Some technology providers used by PickSomething operate internationally. Information may therefore sometimes be processed outside the United Kingdom, subject to applicable data protection safeguards.

Your data protection rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your personal information, and to withdraw consent where consent is the lawful basis.

Right to object

Where we rely on legitimate interests, you may have the right to object to that processing.

Cookies

PickSomething may use cookies and similar technologies for website operation, security, preferences, measurement and other features. Where consent is required for non-essential technologies, they should only be activated after the appropriate consent has been given.

Complaints

If you have concerns about how PickSomething uses personal information, contact us using our Contact page. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK's data protection regulator.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when PickSomething, the technology we use or applicable legal requirements change.
