Privacy Policy

Information we may collect

Depending on how you use the site and which services are enabled, we may collect information in the following categories:

• Information you provide directly, such as your name, email address and the content of a message you send through a contact form or by email.
• Device and usage information, such as IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, pages viewed, referring pages, approximate location derived from IP address, dates and times of visits, and interactions with the site.
• Cookie and similar technology data, such as cookie identifiers and information used for analytics, site functionality, attribution, advertising or preference management.
• Affiliate and referral information, such as a click from Journey To Mexico to a hotel, tour, transportation or other third-party booking partner and information needed to attribute that referral.

We generally do not need sensitive personal information in order to provide this website. Please do not send sensitive information through general contact channels unless it is necessary for your request.

How we may use information

• Operate, maintain, secure and improve the website.
• Understand how visitors find and use our pages and tools.
• Respond to questions, corrections, business inquiries and privacy requests.
• Measure referrals, affiliate performance and the effectiveness of content.
• Prevent fraud, abuse, security incidents and technical problems.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

Where applicable law requires a legal basis for processing, the basis may include your consent, performance of a request you make, compliance with a legal obligation, or our legitimate interests in operating, improving and protecting the site, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.

Cookies and similar technologies

Journey To Mexico and service providers we use may place or read cookies, pixels, local storage or similar technologies. Some are necessary for the site to function; others may support analytics, attribution, advertising or preference management.

Where required, non-essential technologies should be used only after the appropriate consent or choice is obtained. Depending on your location and the services enabled on the site, you may be offered cookie or privacy controls. You can also use browser settings to block or delete cookies, although some site features may not work as intended.

Analytics and advertising

We may use analytics providers to understand traffic and visitor behavior. If we display advertising, advertising and measurement providers may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver, limit, personalize or measure ads as permitted by applicable law and your choices.

Because vendors and configurations can change, the live consent interface or vendor list, when present, may provide more specific information about technologies currently in use.

Affiliate links and booking partners

Some links on Journey To Mexico are affiliate or referral links. When you click one, you may be sent to a third-party booking or commerce site. That third party may collect information under its own privacy policy, and it may use cookies or other identifiers to recognize that your visit came from Journey To Mexico.

We may receive compensation for qualifying bookings, purchases, clicks or other actions. Our Affiliate Disclosure explains this relationship in more detail.

How information may be shared

We may disclose information to service providers that help us operate the site, such as hosting, security, analytics, email, form, consent-management, advertising and affiliate-measurement providers. We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect rights or safety, investigate abuse, or complete a business transaction involving the website or its assets.

We do not state that we “sell” personal information in the ordinary sense of receiving money for a list of visitor identities. However, some privacy laws define “sale” or “sharing” more broadly and may treat certain advertising or cross-context behavioral advertising activity differently. Where those laws apply, we will provide the choices they require.

Your privacy choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of or a copy of personal information; object to or restrict certain processing; withdraw consent; or opt out of certain sale, sharing, targeted advertising or profiling activities. You may also have the right not to be discriminated against for exercising applicable privacy rights.

To make a privacy request, email contact@journeytomexico.com or use our Contact page. We may need to verify your request before acting on it. If applicable law recognizes an authorized agent, we may request information necessary to verify the agent’s authority.

If you are in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom or another jurisdiction with a supervisory privacy authority, you may also have the right to complain to the applicable authority.

Data retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to provide requested communications, maintain business and tax records, measure site performance, resolve disputes, protect security, and meet legal obligations. Retention periods vary by data type and service provider.

International data transfers

Journey To Mexico is available internationally and may use service providers located in the United States or other countries. As a result, information may be processed outside the country where you live. Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, we and our service providers are expected to use legally recognized transfer mechanisms or other appropriate safeguards.

Children’s privacy

Journey To Mexico is a general-audience travel website and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so the matter can be reviewed.

Third-party websites

Our pages link to hotels, tour operators, booking platforms, transportation providers, attractions, government resources and other third-party websites. We do not control their privacy practices. Review the privacy policy of the third party you visit before providing personal information or completing a transaction.

Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information under our control. No website, transmission method or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute security.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in the site, technology, vendors or legal requirements. The “Last updated” date at the top of the page shows when this version was most recently revised.
