I run this magazine in my free time, but I care about your online privacy.
Study privacy policies and terms and conditions from third parties
As you can see on my website, I have widgets from third parties or web links to them. This is where I resell services to cover the running costs of this magazine. These include Booking.com (privacy policy) and Amazon (privacy policy).
These third parties are in what is called “data controllers” under the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). I urge you to study their privacy policies and terms and conditions.
I use Google Analytics to understand the usage of our online magazine, but we don´t see any personal information there; it is only aggregated data. Please review their privacy policy.
We have an online mailing list, and we hate spam
I have an online mailing list. Its main purpose is to update subscribers when new content is in the magazine. I may send you offers and deals from partners who want to promote their services or content. In that case, we urge you to study their privacy policies and terms and conditions.
I will never give our subscribers’ email addresses or other personal information to third parties without explicit permission. I hate spam as much as you do. The E-mail addresses of our subscribers are hosted by Mailchimp and Hubspot (which I have stopped using), and you can unsubscribe from my email list at any time. In addition, Mailchimp and Hubspot give me anonymized information about how users engage with my website. Please see the privacy policy of Hubspot, and Mailchimp.
