Privacy Policy

Last updated: 29/10/2025

Your privacy matters to us. We want you to enjoy browsing our site knowing that your personal information is respected and protected.

1. Who We Are

This website (“Chotsaway”) is operated by Claire Stephens.

You can contact me at: Clairemstephens@gmail.com. 

We are the data controller for any minimal information processed directly through this site.

2. What We Collect (and Don’t Collect)

We do not:

  • Collect personal data directly from visitors.
  • Use analytics, tracking pixels, or advertising scripts.
  • Store or share any information about individual users.

You can explore our site freely without creating an account, logging in, or providing any personal details.

3. Affiliate Links and Third Parties

Our website contains affiliate links, including those provided through CJ Affiliate (Commission Junction). Our site itself does not use cookies or collect any personal data.  However when you click an affiliate link — for example, to Booking.com — a small text file (cookie) may be placed on your device by CJ Affiliate or the partner merchant.

This cookie:

  • Tracks that you visited via our site.
  • Attributes any resulting booking or purchase to us.
  • Does not reveal your personal identity to us.

We do not have access to, store, or control this data. It is processed by CJ Affiliate and/or the partner merchant under their own privacy policies.

CJ Affiliate is based in the United States and may transfer data internationally in compliance with GDPR-approved safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses).

You can review CJ’s Privacy Policy here: https://www.cj.com/legal/privacy

You can manage or disable cookies at any time in your browser settings.

4. Hosting and Security

Our site is hosted by Hostinger, which may automatically process limited technical data such as IP addresses and browser information. This is done solely for operational, performance, and security purposes.

You can review Hostinger’s privacy practices here: https://www.hostinger.com/privacy-policy

5. Your Rights

Under the UK GDPR / EU GDPR, you have rights including:

  • The right to access your personal data.
  • The right to request correction or deletion.
  • The right to object to processing.
  • The right to withdraw consent (where applicable).

Because we do not actively collect or store any personal data, most of these rights are not triggered — but we’ll always respond transparently to any enquiry.
