Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 15, 2026

FlyCheap.app ("we", "our", or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and safeguard your information when you use our website www.flycheap.app and/or our mobile application (Android, available on Google Play).

1. Who we are

FlyCheap.app is an independent flight comparison service powered by the Travelpayouts affiliate program (Aviasales/Jetradar). We do not sell tickets directly — we help you find and compare the best deals across airlines and travel agencies.

2. Information we collect

We collect minimal data necessary to provide our service. We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, payment details, or any other directly identifiable personal information.

a) Information collected automatically (website and app)

• IP address and approximate location (city/airport IATA code level only – used to show deals from your area)
• Device type, operating system, browser type, and language preferences
• Flight search parameters (origin, destination, dates, passengers, cabin class)

b) Information specific to the mobile app

• Anonymous user ID (generated by Google Firebase – no login required)
• Saved favorite flight routes (origin, destination, dates)
• Push notification token (FCM – only if you enable notifications)

c) Cookies and similar technologies (website only)

We and our partners use cookies to remember recent searches, improve performance, and track affiliate commissions (we earn when you book via our links).
