B. Personal Information (Provided by You)
We currently only collect personal information if you explicitly provide it to us:
Contact Information: If you use our "Contact Us" form, we collect your name and email address.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
To Operate and Maintain the Site: Ensuring the stability, speed, and security of the website.

4. Disclosure of Your Information
We do not sell your personal data. We may disclose non-personal, aggregated data to third parties for analysis and reporting. We may share information with:

Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court order or government agency).
5. Affiliate Disclosure
Transparency: As an informational website, we plan to include affiliate links to third-party travel services (such as Booking, rental car agencies, insurance, etc.) in the future.
Impact: When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase or booking, we may earn a commission. This process involves the placement of tracking cookies by the third-party affiliate network or merchant.
Your Data: We do not handle your payment details or booking information; that data is processed solely by the third-party merchant.
6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Cookies: The Site uses cookies to collect information, enhance functionality, and track usage patterns. These include functional, performance, and, eventually, advertising/affiliate cookies.
