Broad policy summary
As a purely informational website, I do not require or acquire any personal information from you with the following commonplace exceptions…
I use various third-party services to ensure the website runs smoothly and provides a functioning viewing, informational and travel-planning experience (e.g. YouTube videos, hotel search forms). Some of those services may use cookies (which you can accept/reject where these are not critical to website functionality using the cookie consent banner) or they may involve what has legally been defined as personal info. Please check the policy for full details. Some highlights/additions:
- I have advertisers (again, see the privacy policy for details) to give visitors the option to buy products and/or services relevant to a trip to Vienna. If you follow a link to such a partner (through a text link, graphic or form clearly marked as an ad or with a *), you then of course become subject to the destination website’s full cookie and data protection policies and practices.
- The cookie consent box remembers which cookies you allowed (should you visit again). All very self-referential. You can change your preferences using that cookie link above.
- If you send me an email, I will retain your communication until such time as you ask me to delete it
- A small handful of pages feature ads provided by Google through their AdSense programme. These are non-personalised at this site, which means ads are not based on your interests, demographics, and Google Account information, and the AdSense implementation does not collect visitation information from this site to create interest categories. FYI you can manage Google’s use of personalized ads on websites you visit by going here.
