Privacy & Security
PiñaPath is built with privacy-first principles. Your personal information is handled securely, transparently, and in compliance with data protection standards.
All data — including your uploaded government ID — is stored in Firebase with restricted access. Only authorized Tourism Office admins can view ID photos, and every access is logged.
Every admin action — especially access to sensitive data like ID photos — is recorded in a tamper-evident audit log for full accountability.
Establishment staff see only what they need for check-in. Tourism Office admins have broader access, with all actions fully traceable and governed by privacy policy.
