This privacy policy explains what information Global Places Guide (globalplacesguide.com) collects when you visit the site, why we collect it and the choices you have. It is written in plain English, so you can read it in a few minutes. Last updated: October 2026.
Information this privacy policy covers
This privacy policy covers two kinds of information. First, there is information you choose to send us, for example through the contact form. Second, there is technical information collected automatically by cookies and similar technologies when you browse.
Messages you send us
When you use the contact form, we receive your name, email address and message. Your details serve only to reply to you and to improve our guides. We keep messages securely on our website and in our email inbox, and we delete them when we no longer need them, normally within 24 months. Nobody else receives them, and we never sell them.
Cookies and analytics
Google Analytics helps us understand which pages are read and how visitors find us. Because Google aggregates analytics data, it does not identify you personally. In addition, Google Tag Manager may load these tools.
Advertising
Ads from Google AdSense pay for the site. Google and its partners use cookies to show ads based on your previous visits to this and other websites. You can turn off personalised advertising in Google Ad Settings, and you can learn more on how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, we ask for your consent before we use personalised ads or analytics cookies, and you can change your choice at any time.
Third-party links
Also, our guides link to official websites, Google Maps and other sites. Those sites have their own privacy policies, and they decide how to handle your data.
Your rights under this privacy policy
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete the personal data we hold about you, and to object to how we use it. To make a request, use our contact page. We will reply within 30 days.
Children
We write this website for a general audience, not for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this privacy policy
When we change this privacy policy, we update the date at the top of the page. If the changes are significant, we will also point them out on the home page.
