Terms and legal information
September 29, 2026 · EN
ADOKVA is an independent interactive project displaying voluntarily selected geographic connections. It is not a government, immigration or official registry.
Terms of use
- The basic version requires no account, name, phone number or email address.
- Users choose birthplace and residence locations themselves. ADOKVA does not verify identity, citizenship, birthplace or actual residence.
- Your path stays on your device. Only when you explicitly share, selected settlements appear in a comparison or Hello link fragment, or in a Story image. Recipients can see those places. The fragment is not sent to the page server; the service you use to share may process the full link. Invitations contain no precise coordinates, address, GPS or profile. Hello is a fixed greeting, not a chat.
- Threats, harassment, doxxing, fraud, unlawful discrimination, disclosure of another person's personal data, automated attacks and other unlawful use are prohibited.
- ADOKVA materials and visualizations are provided for informational and entertainment purposes. They are not a public offer, professional advice, official statistics, a guarantee or a promise of results.
- The service is provided as is, may change and may be temporarily unavailable. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the project owner is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential loss. Nothing here excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
Legal notice
- All geographic markers are voluntary and may be inaccurate.
- ADOKVA does not verify citizenship, origin, birthplace or residence and does not establish a user's identity.
- Your path stays on your device. Only when you explicitly share, selected settlements appear in a comparison or Hello link fragment, or in a Story image. Recipients can see those places. The fragment is not sent to the page server; the service you use to share may process the full link. Invitations contain no precise coordinates, address, GPS or profile. Hello is a fixed greeting, not a chat.
- Vercel Web Analytics is not currently enabled in the ADOKVA runtime. Vercel and network providers may still process ordinary technical request data, including IP addresses and logs, to deliver and secure the site.
- If a user sends an email, the sender address and message are processed by email providers.
- ADOKVA aims to use original materials or materials used on a lawful basis. Rights in third-party text, images, data and other materials remain with their respective rights holders.
- A suspected infringement notice identifying the disputed material, rights holder and exact page URL may be sent to adokva@adokva.com. After review, access to the material may be restricted or the material removed.
Operator and contact
ADOKVA is operated by an individual who owns the ADOKVA project. Privacy and personal-data contact: adokva@adokva.com. The basic experience does not require an account, name, phone number or email address.
What is processed and why
The core journey, selected settlements, intermediate places, saved connections and settings remain in the user's browser. Server infrastructure may process limited request metadata, including IP addresses and logs, only to deliver, secure, protect against abuse and support the service. Where applicable, processing relies on performance of a requested function, legitimate interests in service security, explicit consent for optional processing and compliance with legal obligations.
Providers and transfers
Vercel is used to host and deliver the site; network providers may process technical data. Cloudflare Workers AI is used only after the user explicitly chooses to send a phrase to AI. ADOKVA does not sell personal data, use behavioural advertising or create advertising profiles. International transfers of technical data may occur through these providers under their contractual and legal transfer mechanisms.
Retention
Local journey data remains on the device until the user removes the journey or site data. One-time anti-abuse proofs are short-lived and are not intended for profiling. The aggregate participation counter contains no journey or city payload. ADOKVA does not keep AI phrases in its own user database; infrastructure providers may retain operational logs according to their policies and configuration. Support email is kept only as reasonably necessary to answer, secure the service and meet legal obligations.
Your rights
Where applicable, you may request information, access, correction, deletion, restriction or objection, withdraw consent for optional processing, and complain to a competent supervisory authority. ADOKVA cannot retrieve a journey that exists only in your browser; you remove that local data on your device. Requests concerning data actually available to the operator can be sent to adokva@adokva.com.
AI and voluntary disclosure
AI is never triggered automatically. Before a phrase is sent, the user separately chooses to send it to Cloudflare Workers AI. Do not enter another person's name, contact details, precise address, documents or other personal data. AI-provided coordinates are rejected; settlement coordinates come only from ADOKVA's local GeoNames data.
Children and sensitive data
ADOKVA is not designed to collect children's personal data and does not ask for precise addresses, GPS, identity documents, medical, biometric or other sensitive information. Do not use Share or AI to disclose a child's or another person's personal data without an appropriate lawful basis.
Applicable law
ADOKVA aims to comply with applicable privacy and personal-data requirements in jurisdictions where the service is actually offered. No public notice can guarantee compliance with every law in every country under every circumstance; material feature, launch-geography or legal changes require a renewed review.
