Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

Festivaleo (“we”, “us”, or “our”) operates festivaleo.com. This page explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information. We’ve written this in plain language rather than dense legalese — if anything is unclear, contact us.

Information we collect

Information you give us directly

When you use our contact form or subscribe to our newsletter, you provide us with your email address and any other details you choose to include. We use this only to respond to your message or send you the newsletter you signed up for. We don’t sell it, trade it, or hand it to third parties for marketing purposes.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, we collect standard server log information when you visit — your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and referring URLs. This data is used in aggregate to understand how the site is used and to improve it. We don’t use it to identify individual visitors.

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies to make the site function correctly and to understand traffic patterns. These include:

  • Essential cookies — required for the site to function (e.g. WordPress session cookies).
  • Analytics cookies — if you’ve consented, we use Google Analytics to understand aggregate traffic. Google Analytics collects anonymised data on page views, session duration, and traffic sources. You can opt out via Google’s opt-out tool.
  • Affiliate cookies — when you click an Amazon affiliate link, Amazon places a cookie on your browser to track the referral. This is governed by Amazon’s privacy policy.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings. Note that disabling essential cookies may affect how the site works.

How we use your information

  • To respond to contact form messages
  • To send newsletters you’ve subscribed to (you can unsubscribe at any time via the link in every email)
  • To understand how the site is used and improve it
  • To comply with legal obligations

We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling.

Affiliate links

Festivaleo participates in the Amazon Associates Program and may participate in other affiliate programs. When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial recommendations. See our full Affiliate Disclosure for details.

Third-party services

We use the following third-party services, each with their own privacy policies:

Data retention

Contact form submissions are retained for as long as necessary to respond to your message, then deleted. Newsletter subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe. Analytics data is retained per Google Analytics’ standard retention settings (26 months by default).

Your rights

Depending on where you’re located, you may have the right to:

  • Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Withdraw consent for email communications at any time

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [YOUR EMAIL]. We’ll respond within 30 days.

Children’s privacy

Festivaleo is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we’ll update the “last updated” date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
