Privacy Policy

Who We Are

This privacy policy applies to travel-gratis.com and all digital products sold under the Travel Gratis brand, operated by Jeffrey Seavey ("we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and being transparent about what we collect and how we use it.

Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us when you:

• Purchase a digital product through our website or our third-party checkout provider (Lemon Squeezy)
• Sign up for our free guide or subscribe to an email list or newsletter
• Contact us with a question or support request

This information may include your name, email address, and payment information. We do not store payment card details — all payment processing is handled by Lemon Squeezy, which acts as the merchant of record for our sales, subject to Lemon Squeezy's own privacy policy.

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit travel-gratis.com, we or our hosting provider may automatically collect certain technical information, including your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and referring URL. This information is used to maintain and improve the website and is not linked to personally identifiable information.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Deliver the digital products you have purchased
• Send you purchase receipts and product updates
• Respond to your questions or support requests
• Send you email communications if you have opted in to receive them
• Improve our website and products
• Comply with legal obligations

Email Communications

If you purchase a product or opt in to our email list, you may receive email communications from us related to your purchase or to travel rewards education. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link in any email. Transactional emails related to your purchase (receipts, download links) cannot be opted out of as they are required for fulfillment.

Free Guide Email Signups

When you sign up for our free guide, we collect your email address (and your first name, if you choose to provide it) through the signup form on travel-gratis.com. We use this information to send you the guide and occasional Travel Gratis updates and offers. You can unsubscribe at any time by replying to any of our emails or by emailing jeff@travel-gratis.com. We do not sell your email address or personal information.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services to operate our business:

• Lemon Squeezy — our checkout, payment, and digital product delivery platform. Lemon Squeezy acts as the merchant of record for our sales: it processes your order and payment and delivers your download. Travel Gratis does not store or have access to your full payment card details. Lemon Squeezy's privacy policy governs how they handle your data.
• Netlify — website hosting and processing of the free guide signup form.
• Google Fonts — font delivery. Google may collect limited data as part of serving fonts to your browser.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes.

Cookies

Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to improve your browsing experience and to support the functionality of our checkout provider. You may disable cookies through your browser settings, though doing so may affect the functionality of some parts of the website.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, to comply with legal obligations, and to resolve any disputes. Purchase records are typically retained for a minimum of seven years for tax and accounting purposes.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable data protection laws, including the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information. To exercise these rights, please contact us at jeff@travel-gratis.com. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.

Residents of the European Union have additional rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). California residents have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Please contact us if you would like to exercise any of these rights.

Children's Privacy

Our website and products are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of our website following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
