3. Third-Party Services

We work with third-party service providers to deliver analytics, advertising, booking, and payment services. Examples include analytics platforms, ad networks, and affiliate booking partners.

These providers may collect information about your use of the site and their services. Their use of your information is governed by their privacy policies and not this Privacy Policy. We recommend reviewing those policies before interacting with third-party services.

Our site may include links to external websites, booking engines, and partner platforms. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites. When you follow links to third parties, their terms and privacy policies apply.

6. Data Security

We implement technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including encryption in transit (TLS), access controls, and regular security assessments. While we strive to protect your information, no system is completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If we become aware of a data breach affecting your information we will follow applicable notification laws and take steps to mitigate the impact.
