At EU Travel Info, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your information when you visit our website, which offers travel guides, tips, and resources about the European Union.
We only provide travel information and do not handle bookings, payments, or reservations. We may collect personal data through forms, such as contact or newsletter sign-ups, or automatically through cookies and analytics tools.
This Policy follows the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other privacy laws. By using our site, you agree to these practices.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information in the following ways:
Personal Data You Provide Voluntarily
- Contact details (e.g., name, email address) if you submit a contact form, subscribe to our newsletter, or comment on articles.
- Any other information you choose to provide (e.g., travel preferences in inquiries).
Data Collected Automatically
- Technical information: IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, and referral sources.
- Usage data: Pages viewed, time spent on the Site, and interaction with content.
- Cookies and similar technologies: We use cookies for analytics, functionality, and personalization (see Section 6 for details).
We do not collect sensitive personal data, such as health, ethnicity, or political opinions, unless you decide to share it in an inquiry. If you do, we will handle it with extra care.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your personal data for these purposes and as allowed by GDPR:
| Purpose | Lawful Basis | Examples |
| To respond to inquiries or provide requested information | Contractual necessity or legitimate interests | Answering contact form submissions |
| To send newsletters or updates (if subscribed) | Consent | Emailing travel tips or site updates |
| To improve the Site and user experience | Legitimate interests | Analyzing usage patterns |
| To maintain security and prevent fraud | Legitimate interests / Legal obligation | Detecting suspicious activity |
| Analytics and site optimization | Legitimate interests or consent (for non-essential cookies) | Using tools like Google Analytics |
We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling.
3. Sharing Your Information
We never sell your personal data. We may share it with:
- Service providers (e.g., email providers and analytics tools such as Google Analytics) that act as processors and are bound by data protection agreements.
- Legal authorities, if required by law.
- In the event of a business transfer (e.g., merger), but only under similar privacy protections.
If your data is transferred outside the EEA, we protect it using approved safeguards like adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses.
4. Data Retention
We keep your personal data only as long as needed:
- Inquiry data: Up to 2 years for follow-up.
- Newsletter subscriptions: Until you unsubscribe.
- Log and analytics data: Up to 26 months (standard for Google Analytics).
After that, we either anonymize or securely delete your data.

- Access: Request a copy of your data.
- Rectification: Correct inaccurate data.
- Erasure: Request deletion (“right to be forgotten”).
