Privacy Policy
What Art Visit Guide collects, why, and how to ask us to delete it.
Art Visit Guide (artvisitguide.com) is a small, independent publication. This page covers what we collect, why, and how to ask us to stop.
What we collect
If you subscribe by email. We use Brevo to send museum guides and updates. We store your email address, your first name if you gave one, which page and guide you signed up for, your city if the form asked for one, and where you came from (referrer). You can unsubscribe from any email we send, or by emailing us directly. We also send ourselves a push notification through ntfy.sh so we know someone signed up; that notification contains your email address and which page you signed up from. Brevo also records whether our emails are opened and which links in them are clicked.
If you accept the cookie banner. Three measurement tools set cookies, and only after you click "Accept":
- Google Analytics, to see which guides get read and from where — page views, approximate location (country/city level), device type.
- Meta's pixel, which tells us whether our own Instagram posts and ads bring people here. If you have a Meta account, Meta can match the visit to it. We don't use it to show you ads on this site, because we don't sell ad space at all.
- GetYourGuide's partner analytics, which measures how the ticket links on our guides perform. It sets its own cookies and sends data to GetYourGuide.
If you click "Reject" or ignore the banner, Meta's pixel and GetYourGuide's analytics don't load at all. Google Analytics loads in a restricted mode: it sets no cookies and sends anonymous, cookieless measurements that can't link one visit to the next. The only cookie set is a small essential one (avg_consent) to remember your choice.
If you buy a planned itinerary. You give us your arrival and departure dates and your pace preference, and an email address to send the plan to. Payment goes through Stripe; we don't see or store your card details. We use your dates and preferences only to plan your itinerary and answer follow-up questions. The email thread with your plan stays in our inbox, and Stripe keeps its own payment records as the law requires it to.
If you click a booking link. Guides link out to GetYourGuide, Tiqets and Viator for tickets. Clicking one of those links takes you to their site, where their own cookies and privacy policy apply — we don't control or see what they collect. We do log that the click happened (which link, which guide) so we know which guides drive bookings; we don't see whether you completed a purchase.
Always, regardless of consent. The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which processes your IP address to serve the pages and to block attacks. We can't turn that off; it's how the site reaches you at all. Our fonts load from Google Fonts, which also receives your IP address when a page loads.
What we don't do
We don't sell your data. We don't show ads on this site. We don't share your email address with GetYourGuide, Tiqets or Viator, or with anyone beyond the services named on this page.
Your rights
Email [email protected] to ask what we hold on you, to correct it, or to have it deleted. We reply within a few days, and always within the one month the GDPR allows.
You can change your mind about the cookie banner at any time by clearing this site's cookies in your browser. The banner comes back on your next visit and nothing loads until you answer it again.
Changes
If this policy changes in a way that matters, we'll update the date below and, for subscribers, say so in an email.
