Welcome to Millennials Do Travel.
Your trust is our most valuable asset. We believe in total transparency regarding how we handle your data. Here is everything you need to know about what we collect, why we collect it, and how we keep it safe.
1. Who We Are
We are the creators behind https://millennialsdotravel.com. If you have any questions about your data, you can reach us directly at contact@millennialsdotravel.com.
2. What Personal Data We Collect and Why
We don’t collect data just for the sake of it. We only gather information that helps us improve your experience on our site.
Comments: When you leave a comment, we collect the data shown in the form, your IP address, and browser user agent string to help us detect spam. If you use a Gravatar, an anonymized string (hash) from your email may be sent to the Gravatar service to display your profile picture.
Media: If you upload images to our site, please ensure they do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). If they do, visitors could potentially download and extract your location—so it’s safer to scrub that data before uploading.
Contact Forms & Registration: If you contact us via our form, your message, name, and email are processed through our email infrastructure (Hostinger and Resend) and delivered to our secure inbox (Outlook) so we can respond to you. We store this information only as long as necessary to handle your request. Administrators also have access to this information to provide support.
3. Cookies: Keeping Your Experience Smooth
Cookies aren’t just for tracking; they are the “digital memory” that makes your life easier:
Convenience: If you leave a comment, you can opt-in to save your name and email in cookies so you don’t have to re-fill the form next time (lasts for 1 year).
Login Sessions: If you log in, we set cookies to save your login info and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options last for a year. If you click “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks.
Security: If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie checks if your browser accepts them—this contains no personal data and disappears when you close your browser.
4. Embedded Content
Our articles may include embedded content (e.g., YouTube videos, maps, or social media posts). This content behaves exactly as if you visited the source website. These sites may collect data, use cookies, and monitor your interaction, especially if you are logged into their platforms.
5. How Long We Keep Your Data
Comments: Kept indefinitely, so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
User Profiles: Kept as long as your account exists. You can request deletion at any time.
6. Your Rights Over Your Data
You are in control. If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold, except for data we are legally obligated to keep for administrative or security purposes.
7. Where Your Data Goes
Visitor comments are checked through an automated spam detection service (like Akismet). If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
