Roadtripkin covers Roadtripkin. This page describes the information handled when you read roadtripkin.com and the control you have over it.

Cookies Summary

Browser storage is dealt with in full by the Cookie Policy, including how to refuse it.

Where advertising is served, third-party vendors including Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.

Age and This Site

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, or under 16 where local law applies that age. This is an adult-facing site, and any children’s data that reaches us in error is deleted.

Newsletter and Email

Subscribing takes two steps: you submit an address, then confirm it from that address. All email includes an unsubscribe link and a postal address as required, and the list is never sold, rented, or shared for others’ marketing.

Retention & Security

Nothing is kept longer than it is needed for. Analytics data ages out on the provider’s schedule, subscriber addresses last until you unsubscribe, comments stay until removed. Access is limited, connections are encrypted in transit, and while no site can promise perfect security, we take reasonable and proportionate measures.

What We Collect

This site may collect technical visit data (IP address, device and browser identifiers, referrer, pages and times) and, separately, information you supply directly: subscription email addresses, comment names and addresses, and anything written in a message to us. Given what we write about, this is worth being explicit about: we ask readers not to send us sensitive personal details, and we delete rather than retain anything of that kind that reaches us unprompted.

What We Do With It

The data supports four things — keeping roadtripkin.com online and secure, understanding readership patterns in aggregate, sending email people have asked for, and underpinning any advertising on the site.

Control You Have

Subject to your location, you may request access to your data, its correction or deletion, a portable copy, or restriction of its use, and you may opt out of sale or sharing for advertising. These entitlements flow from the UK/EU GDPR and from US state law including the CCPA/CPRA. Global Privacy Control signals are respected automatically. See our State Privacy Notice and Do Not Sell or Share.

Service Providers

Running a site of this kind involves outside providers. Hosting and content delivery, analytics (we may use a provider such as Google Analytics), an email platform if you subscribe, and any advertising network we work with. Where these act on their own account rather than ours — as independent controllers rather than processors acting on our instruction — their own privacy policies apply alongside this one.
