We do NOT collect:

  • Your name, email, or any personal contact information

Affiliate links

PirateFly earns commissions through affiliate links at no extra cost to you. When you click a link to a partner service (flight booking, eSIM, car rental, hotel comparison, VPN, etc.), you are redirected to a third-party website. We partner with:

  • Travelpayouts (flight bookings, hotel comparison, car rental, transfers, activities)
  • Impact (VPN services)

These partners may collect data according to their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review their policies before making purchases.

Third-party services

  • Google Analytics: Collects anonymous usage data. See Google’s Privacy Policy.
  • Aviasales/Travelpayouts: Processes flight searches and bookings.
  • Pixabay: Source of destination images used on the site.

Your rights

Under GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access the data we hold about you
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Opt out of analytics tracking (disable cookies or use browser “Do Not Track”)

Since we don’t collect personal data beyond anonymous analytics, there is typically no personal data to delete.

Data retention

Google Analytics data is retained for 14 months, after which it is automatically deleted.

Children’s privacy

PirateFly is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.
