Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information Atlas & Route (atlasandroute.com, "we", "us") collects when you visit the site, how it is used and the choices you have.

Information we collect

Information you give us. If you use our contact form or email us, we receive your name, email address and the content of your message. We use it only to reply to you and keep a record of the conversation.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting provider and analytics tools record technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device, pages visited, referring site and the time of your visit.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for:

• Analytics: we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site (for example, which guides are most read). Google may process this data as described in its own privacy policy.
• Affiliate tracking: when you click an affiliate link or use a booking widget, the partner (for example, via the Travelpayouts network) may set a cookie so a resulting booking can be credited to us. These cookies are set by the partner, not by us.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies.

How we use information

• To operate, maintain and improve the website
• To measure which content is useful to readers
• To respond to messages you send us
• To receive commissions from affiliate partners

We do not sell your personal information.

Third-party services

We rely on third parties to run the site, including our hosting provider (Vercel), analytics (Google Analytics), our contact form provider and affiliate partners. They process data according to their own privacy policies.

Data retention

We keep contact messages for as long as needed to handle your request and for reasonable record-keeping afterwards. Analytics data is kept according to the retention settings of the analytics provider.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example, in the EU/UK under the GDPR or in California under the CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal data, and to object to certain processing. To make a request, email hello@atlasandroute.com.

Children

This site is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal data.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
