How Bridge handles
what you share.

What information Bridge collects

Bridge collects three types of information when you complete a whereabouts:

Your name and email address. Used exclusively to address and deliver your portrait. Your email is not added to any mailing list, not shared with third parties, and not used for marketing of any kind.

Your mother tongue. Used to inform the cultural context of your portrait and to allow you to write your personal context in the language you think in. Not stored beyond the processing of your portrait.

Your responses to the whereabouts questions. 29 questions across 8 dimensions of your life as a migrant. These are the core input Bridge uses to generate your portrait. They are processed in full by the AI model and then discarded — they are not stored in a Bridge database.

Who processes your data

Bridge uses the following platforms to operate. Each one processes your data as part of delivering the service. We have selected platforms with strong privacy practices and, where possible, alignment with European data protection standards.

Bridge does not use advertising platforms, tracking pixels, or analytics tools of any kind. No cookies are set. No third party observes your visit to this site or your interaction with the form.

What Bridge does not do

We do not sell your data. Your information is never sold, rented, or transferred to any third party for commercial purposes.

We do not use your responses to train AI models. The Anthropic API processes your responses to generate your portrait. Bridge does not submit your data for model training, and Anthropic's API terms exclude customer data from training by default.

We do not send unsolicited emails. After your portrait is delivered, Bridge does not contact you again unless you write to us first. There are no newsletters, no follow-ups, no re-engagement campaigns.

We do not track you across sessions. Bridge has no account system, no cookies, no fingerprinting. Each whereabouts you complete is independent. We have no way to connect two different submissions unless you tell us they are from the same person.

Your rights

You have the right to request deletion of any data associated with your email address. Because Bridge does not maintain a central database, deletion means requesting removal from the platforms listed above. We will assist you in this process if you contact us.

You have the right to know what data we hold about you. In practice, the only data Bridge can access is the portrait sent to your email address and the Tally submission linked to it.

You have the right to withdraw at any time. If you have submitted a whereabouts and wish to have the associated data removed before your portrait is generated, contact us immediately at hello@bridge.contact and we will stop the process.

A note on sensitivity

Bridge asks about emotional wellbeing, belonging, spiritual practices, and family relationships. We are aware that these are among the most personal dimensions of a person's life.

This is precisely why Bridge was built with privacy as a foundation, not an afterthought. The people who built this tool are migrants themselves. The questions we ask are questions we have asked ourselves. We treat your responses with the same care we would want applied to our own.

If you have concerns about any aspect of how your data is handled, we want to hear them. Write to us at hello@bridge.contact. We will respond personally.
