Privacy policy

This website operates as Rebellious Tourist or rebellioustourist.com.

This policy explains what personal data we collect, why it’s collected, how long it’s retained and whether it’s shared with third parties.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Any comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. Comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Contact forms

We store user data sent through the contact form on this website, along with meta information about the submissions such as the time stamp. This is retained indefinitely.

Newsletter sign-up

If you subscribe for updates from rebellioustourist.com, your email address will be saved solely for the purpose of sending you newsletters by email. This information is retained indefinitely or until you unsubscribe.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

Google Analytics collects data to track and monitor your use of this website. Google may use this data to contextualise and personalise the ads of its own advertising network. You can opt out by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, which prevents the Google Analytics JavaScript from sharing data about your activity.
