Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 11, 2026

Four Winds Adventures ("Four Winds Adventures," "I," "me," or "my") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information I collect through fourwindsadventures.com, how I use it, and the choices you have.

Information You Provide Directly

When you fill out my contact or trip inquiry form, I collect the information you enter, including your name, email address, phone number, destination interests, travel dates, budget range, accommodation preferences, dietary restrictions, mobility or accessibility needs, and any other details you choose to share. This information is submitted through Web3Forms, a third-party form processing service, and is used solely to plan your trip and respond to your inquiry.

Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, fourwindsadventures.com uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. This collects information such as pages visited, time spent on the site, general location (city or region level), device and browser type, and how you arrived at the site. I have also enabled Google signals, which allows Google Analytics to associate this data with signed-in Google users who have consented to ad personalization, providing aggregated demographic and interest information. No individually identifying information is available to me through this feature.

This site also uses Microsoft Clarity, a behavior analytics service, to understand how visitors interact with pages, such as where they click and scroll. Clarity records anonymized session replays and heatmaps and automatically masks sensitive form fields. Data is processed by Microsoft in accordance with the Microsoft Privacy Statement.

Cookies

This site uses cookies placed by Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity to collect the information described above. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, or by adjusting your ad personalization settings directly in your Google account.

Affiliate Links

This site may contain affiliate links. I am a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. This site may also participate in other affiliate or referral programs from time to time. If you click one of these links and make a qualifying purchase, I may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Clicking these links may set cookies controlled by the third-party retailer, not by me.

Travel Bookings

Fourwindsadventures.com is an informational and inquiry site. It does not process payments or store payment information. Once I begin planning your trip, any actual bookings, payments, passenger information, and travel documents are handled directly through Fora Travel and the relevant suppliers (airlines, hotels, cruise lines, tour operators), governed by their own privacy policies and terms.

How Information Is Shared

I do not sell your information. I share your inquiry details only as needed to plan and book your trip, meaning with Fora Travel and the specific suppliers involved in your itinerary, or when required by law.

Data Retention

I retain inquiry information for as long as needed to respond to you and, if you become a client, for the duration of my working relationship with you and as required for business records.

Your Choices

You may ask me to delete your inquiry information at any time by emailing lauryn.gulledge@fora.travel. If you are a California resident or reside somewhere with specific data privacy rights, you may have additional rights regarding your personal information. Contact me with any request and I will respond appropriately.

Children's Privacy

This site is not directed at children, and I do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 13.

Security

I take reasonable measures to protect the information you provide, but no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.

Changes to This Policy

I may update this policy from time to time. The effective date at the top will reflect the most recent revision.
