Privacy Policy

Information we collect

You can browse HolidayDates.net without creating an account or submitting your name. Like most websites, our hosting and security services may automatically receive technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, requested page, referring page, approximate region, and the date and time of a request. We use this information to deliver the site, prevent abuse, diagnose errors, and understand aggregate traffic patterns.

If you contact us by email, we receive the email address and information you choose to include. We use it only to respond, investigate corrections, and maintain an appropriate record of the conversation. Please do not send sensitive personal information through email.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use the site. Google Analytics may use cookies or similar identifiers and may process information such as page visits, approximate location, device and browser information, and referral source. We use these reports in aggregate to improve navigation, content, and site performance. We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, phone numbers, or other directly identifying information to Google Analytics.

You can learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services on Google's partner sites information page. Browser settings and Google's available controls can be used to limit or remove cookies.

Advertising and third-party cookies

HolidayDates.net uses Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, may place and read cookies on your browser or use web beacons, IP addresses, and other identifiers as a result of serving or measuring advertising on this site. Google and its advertising partners may use advertising cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to HolidayDates.net or other websites, where permitted by law and by your consent choices.

You may manage personalized advertising in Google's Ads Settings. You may also review industry opt-out choices at YourAdChoices. Opting out of personalized advertising does not necessarily remove advertising; it may result in non-personalized ads instead.

Consent choices

Where required, visitors are shown controls for consenting to or rejecting the use of cookies and personal data for advertising. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, advertising consent is managed through a Google-certified consent management platform. Visitors can revisit available privacy choices through the consent message or browser controls.

Service providers and data sharing

We use service providers for hosting, security, analytics, and advertising. They may process technical data only as needed to provide their services, comply with law, protect users, or prevent fraud and abuse. We do not sell contact information submitted to us. We may disclose information if legally required or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, and integrity of the site or its users.

Retention, security, and international processing

Technical logs and correspondence are retained only for as long as reasonably needed for security, support, legal, and operational purposes. No internet service can guarantee absolute security, but we use reputable providers and reasonable safeguards. Because the site and its providers operate internationally, information may be processed in countries other than your own, subject to applicable safeguards.

Children's privacy

HolidayDates.net is a general-audience planning resource and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.

Your choices and requests

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or restriction of personal information. You may also object to certain processing or withdraw consent. To make a privacy request, email [email protected]. We may need enough information to verify and complete the request, but will not ask for more than reasonably necessary.

HolidayDates.net does not sell the contact information you send us. Advertising providers may process identifiers for advertising and measurement as described above. Where applicable law provides a right to opt out of certain targeted or cross-context behavioral advertising, use the consent controls presented on the site and Google's advertising settings, or contact us for help locating the relevant control. We do not discriminate against visitors for exercising an applicable privacy right.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy when our services, providers, or legal obligations change. The latest version and update date will remain on this page. Questions about this policy can be sent to [email protected] or through our contact page.
