Privacy Policy

1. Scope and introduction

Fareora is an independent travel information, comparison and planning website. It currently provides destination information, Travel Guides, Travel Deals content and planning interfaces for hotels, flights and car rentals. Fareora does not currently complete bookings or process payments. If a user follows an external link, any booking is completed with the relevant third-party provider.

This policy applies to information handled through fareora.com. It does not govern the privacy practices of airlines, hotels, rental companies, booking platforms, payment services or other external websites. Those organizations determine their own practices and publish their own privacy notices.

2. Information users voluntarily provide

You may provide information voluntarily when you contact Fareora. The contact form requests your name, email address, subject and message. The information is sent to [email protected] so Fareora can read and respond to your enquiry. Contact-form message bodies are not saved as WordPress posts or contact records in the WordPress database.

Your message may nevertheless remain in the email systems used to send and receive correspondence. Please avoid including passport information, payment-card details, booking credentials, health information or other sensitive data. Fareora does not need those details to answer general website, content or business enquiries.

If you communicate with Fareora in another way, we receive the information you choose to include, together with ordinary correspondence details such as the sending address, date and message history.

Information entered into planning interfaces

The current hotel, flight and car-rental forms are planning interfaces and do not return live provider prices. Fareora does not currently send the criteria entered into those forms to an affiliate provider. If live search or provider integrations are introduced, this policy and the relevant interface will explain the resulting data flow before or when it becomes applicable.

Technical and server information

Like most websites, Fareora’s hosting, web server, security and content-delivery infrastructure may automatically process technical information needed to deliver and protect the site. This can include an IP address, request date and time, requested URL, referring page, browser or device information, response status and diagnostic or security events.

Server logs help deliver pages, investigate errors, prevent abuse, protect the contact form and maintain website security. They are not used by Fareora to create detailed travel profiles. Hosting and security providers may apply their own operational retention periods.

3. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small files or values stored by a browser. Similar technologies can include local storage, pixels, tags and server-side identifiers. They may support security, remember preferences, measure use or attribute a referral.

Fareora provides three consent categories: Necessary, Analytics, and Advertising / Marketing. Necessary technology is always enabled because it supports security, consent storage and core website functions. Analytics and Advertising / Marketing are optional and are disabled unless a visitor affirmatively enables them. Fareora stores the selected categories, consent version and timestamp in the first-party fareora_consent cookie for up to 180 days. The cookie does not contain a name, email address or travel-search details.

Essential or functional technologies may be used when necessary for WordPress administration, form security, rate limiting, content delivery, fraud prevention or infrastructure protection. For example, hosting or content-delivery services may process technical signals to distinguish legitimate traffic from abusive requests. Cookies used after you leave Fareora are controlled by the external site you visit.

Travelpayouts Drive and affiliate tracking

Fareora uses Travelpayouts Drive, a Travelpayouts technology installed across public pages after Advertising / Marketing consent. Drive analyzes website content and visitor interactions to support travel-related monetization and may make affiliate links, widgets or other travel tools available where applicable. The separate GetRentacar search widget and AirHelp flight-compensation eligibility tool remain available as user-requested travel functions. Their official scripts and embedded providers may process technical, interaction or attribution information under their own terms when a tool is loaded or used. Information entered inside an AirHelp tool is provided to AirHelp rather than Fareora, and AirHelp is responsible for its eligibility assessment and claim service.

Travelpayouts, its technology providers, or participating travel partners may process technical data such as IP address, browser and device information, requested page, referring URL and timestamps; interaction data such as page activity, searches and engagement with travel tools; referral and click information; and partner, session or attribution identifiers. These data may be used to operate the integration, measure referrals, prevent abuse, attribute qualifying clicks, searches, bookings or other actions, and calculate potential affiliate compensation.

Affiliate attribution may use link parameters, cookies or similar identifiers. Travelpayouts documentation states that a Partner ID may be stored in a cookie for up to 30 days, although a particular participating program may apply different attribution terms. Travelpayouts and participating providers handle information under their own privacy documentation and program terms. Visitors should review those materials when interacting with an affiliate tool or leaving Fareora for an external provider.

Fareora participates in Travelpayouts, but this does not mean Fareora has an active integration or approved partnership with every travel brand available through that network. In particular, Fareora does not claim an active KAYAK integration or partnership.

Meta Pixel and advertising measurement

Fareora uses Meta Pixel, provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. and relevant Meta entities, under Dataset ID 1042823911716262. This technology helps Fareora measure website visits and interactions, understand advertising performance and attribution, measure engagement with relevant Fareora pages and features, and create or measure aggregated advertising audiences where applicable.

When Meta Pixel loads, Meta may receive technical and browser information such as an IP address, browser or device information, page URL, referring information, timestamps, cookie or similar identifiers, and information about configured website events. Meta processes information received through its business tools according to its own terms and privacy policies.

Meta Pixel is classified as Advertising / Marketing and is not downloaded, initialized or sent Fareora events before that category is accepted. After consent, Fareora sends general measurement events such as page views, viewing the Car Rentals page, visibility of the car-rental search widget, interaction with the third-party widget frame, and use of the Car Rentals page’s internal search CTA. Fareora does not configure these custom Meta events to send names, email addresses, phone numbers, exact rental locations, travel dates or other information entered into search or contact forms.

Meta Pixel may support aggregated audience measurement or advertising optimization where Fareora uses eligible Meta advertising services. An audience or measurement result does not give Fareora direct access to a visitor’s Meta account password or private messages.

Other analytics and advertising platforms

Fareora does not currently use Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager or another separate advertising-platform tracking integration. If another analytics or advertising service is enabled, Fareora will identify the relevant service and available choices as appropriate rather than treating this disclosure as advance authorization for an undisclosed tool.

4. How information may be used

Fareora may use information it receives to:

• deliver website pages and requested functions;
• operate Travelpayouts Drive and relevant affiliate tools;
• analyze content and visitor interactions for travel-related monetization;
• measure and attribute qualifying referrals, clicks, searches, bookings or other actions;
• measure website visits, relevant page interactions and advertising performance through Meta Pixel;
• create or measure aggregated advertising audiences where applicable;
• respond to enquiries, corrections and business messages;
• maintain correspondence and follow up on an enquiry;
• diagnose errors and improve usability, accessibility and content quality;
• protect the website, contact form and infrastructure from spam, fraud or misuse;
• understand and document technical incidents;
• comply with valid obligations or protect legitimate rights where applicable; and
• evaluate future website functionality without activating it silently.

Fareora does not use contact-form information to complete travel bookings. It does not receive the payment information used to purchase a flight, room or rental car from a third-party provider merely because you visited Fareora.

5. Service providers and information sharing

Information may be processed by vendors that support Fareora’s operation, such as Meta Platforms, Travelpayouts, participating affiliate and travel providers, hosting, content delivery, security, email and technical maintenance providers. They may process information as required to provide their respective services or under their own legal responsibilities. Fareora may also disclose information if reasonably necessary to address abuse, protect the website or users, respond to a valid legal request, or establish and defend rights.

Fareora does not claim to sell personal information collected through the contact form. If the site’s business or technical operation changes materially, relevant notices will be updated rather than assuming this policy covers an undisclosed practice.

Third-party travel providers

An affiliate link, widget or travel tool may direct you to a provider. Once you interact with that provider, it may collect search criteria, account details, traveler information and payment information directly. Fareora does not control how that provider processes information. Review the provider’s privacy policy before submitting personal or payment details.

External links

Travel Guides, destination pages and affiliate tools may link to third-party resources. A link does not transfer Fareora’s privacy practices to the external site and does not mean Fareora controls or endorses every aspect of that site. External sites can record your visit and apply their own cookies.

6. Data retention

Fareora keeps contact correspondence only for as long as reasonably useful to respond, manage the relationship, maintain appropriate business records, address abuse or meet applicable obligations. There is no fixed universal period because a simple correction may require less time than an ongoing business enquiry. You may ask Fareora to delete correspondence, subject to information that must reasonably be retained for security, recordkeeping or applicable legal reasons.

Technical logs are retained according to operational need and the practices of the hosting, email, security and content-delivery services involved. Fareora does not promise that every copy disappears immediately from backups when routine deletion occurs.

7. Security

Fareora uses reasonable measures intended to protect the website and information, including HTTPS, form validation, anti-spam controls and access restrictions. No transmission or storage system is guaranteed to be completely secure. Users should send only information needed for the enquiry and should contact the relevant booking provider—not Fareora—with payment or reservation credentials.

8. International visitors

Fareora serves an international audience. Website, email, hosting, advertising measurement and security services may process information in countries other than the country from which you visit. Privacy rules and available rights differ by location. Fareora does not designate a particular jurisdiction through this policy. Because Fareora does not rely on unverified location detection, optional Analytics and Advertising / Marketing technologies default to off for new visitors worldwide.

9. Your privacy choices and rights

Depending on applicable law and the circumstances, you may have rights to request access to, correction of or deletion of personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. You may also withdraw a consent where processing actually depends on that consent. These rights can be subject to exceptions and identity verification.

You can accept or reject optional categories in the first-layer banner, choose individual categories through Manage Preferences, or reopen the same panel at any time through “Cookie Settings” in the footer. Turning Advertising / Marketing off stops Fareora from firing future Meta events and prevents Travelpayouts Drive from loading on later page loads. It cannot guarantee deletion of cookies or information already controlled by a third party.

To make a privacy request, email [email protected] with enough information to understand the request. Do not send identity documents unless Fareora specifically explains why verification is necessary. You can manage cookies through browser controls, use Fareora’s cookie controls where available, and review Meta’s own Privacy Center, Accounts Center and advertising-preference settings. Browser blocking or deleting cookies can affect attribution and saved choices.

10. Children’s privacy

Fareora provides general travel information for a broad audience and is not designed to solicit personal information from children who cannot lawfully provide it. If you believe a child submitted personal information through the contact form without appropriate authorization, contact Fareora so the situation can be reviewed.

11. Changes to this policy

Fareora may update this policy when website features, service providers or information practices change. The revised page will show a new “Last updated” date. Material changes should be read before continuing to use affected features.

12. Contact Fareora

Questions or privacy requests can be sent to [email protected]. Fareora does not publish a physical address, telephone number or legal-entity registration that has not been established and verified.
