Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us at Travel Stories Today, and we want you to feel at ease while you read and explore. This policy explains, in plain language, what information we gather, why we gather it, and the choices that remain yours. This page was last updated on 5 July 2026.

The information we collect

You can read most of this blog without telling us a single thing about yourself. When you choose to reach out or take part, we may receive a little information from you. This can include your name and email address when you subscribe to our updates or send us a message, along with anything you decide to write in that message.

Like almost every website, we also collect some basic technical details automatically. These may include the type of device and browser you use, the pages you open, and the general area you are browsing from. We use this to understand what our readers enjoy so that we can write better guides.

Cookies and similar tools

Cookies are small files that a website saves on your device to help it remember you and improve your visit. We use them to keep the site running smoothly, to measure which stories are popular, and to support the adverts that help us keep the blog free. You can switch off cookies in your browser settings at any time, though a few features may work less smoothly if you do.

Analytics

We use trusted analytics tools to see how people move through the site. These tools reveal patterns rather than personal identities, such as which guides are read most and how long visitors stay. That insight helps us spend our time on the content you value.

Advertising

To keep Travel Stories Today free to read, we show adverts from partners such as Google. These partners may use cookies to display adverts that suit your interests based on your visits to this and other websites. You always stay in control. You can review and adjust how Google personalises adverts within the advert settings of your Google account, and you can learn more about your choices on the Google advertising pages.

How we use your information

We use the little information we hold for simple and honest reasons. We reply to your messages, we send the updates you asked for, we keep the site secure, and we improve our guides. We do not sell your personal information to anyone. Selling your trust would go against everything this blog stands for.

Sharing with others

We only share information with the services that help us run the blog, such as our email and analytics providers, and only to the extent they need it to do their job. We may also share information if the law requires it, or to protect the safety of our readers and our team.

Links to other websites

Our guides often point you toward other websites, such as parks, lodges and booking services. Once you leave Travel Stories Today, this policy no longer applies. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any site you visit, because each one handles your information in its own way.

Children

This blog is written for a general adult audience and is not aimed at young children. We do not knowingly gather information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal details, please contact us and we will remove it promptly.

Your choices

You can ask us at any time to show you what information we hold, to correct it, or to delete it. You can also leave our mailing list with a single click at the bottom of any email we send. We will always honour these requests.

Changes to this policy

As the blog grows, this policy may change now and then. When it does, we will update the date at the top of the page. We invite you to glance over it from time to time so that you always know where you stand.

Talk to us

If any part of this policy raises a question, please write to us at [email protected]. A real person will read your message and reply.
