Tripnook is based in Australia. We handle personal information in line with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).
This policy explains what information Tripnook handles when you read the site or write to us, and the choices you have. It describes our own practices and is not legal advice. We review it whenever the site changes.
What we collect
If you email us at hello@tripnook.net, we will have your email address and whatever you include in the message, so we can reply.
We do not ask you to create an account to read Tripnook.
Currency choice
The currency converter does not track you. If you pick a currency, that choice is stored only in your browser (localStorage). We do not use your IP address to guess your location for this.
To show a sensible departure city and the right regional booking site, the page reads your browser’s language and time-zone settings in your browser. Nothing is sent to us. If you pick a departure city in the Discover quiz, that choice is also stored only in your browser (localStorage key tn_origin), and you can clear it by clearing site data.
Trip Planner
The Trip Planner builds your plan in your browser. Your answers are not sent to us. They appear in the web address so you can share a plan, and if you choose “Save on this device”, the plan is kept in your browser’s local storage until you remove it. “Email it to myself” opens your own email app; we do not receive the email.
Cookies
This WordPress site may set essential cookies so the site can work, for example if a site administrator logs in. We do not run advertising or analytics trackers on Tripnook.
We do not sell personal information
We do not sell your personal information.
Access, correction and complaints
You can ask to access or correct personal information we hold about you, or make a privacy complaint, by emailing hello@tripnook.net.
If we cannot resolve a complaint, you may contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.
If you live outside Australia, the privacy law where you live may give you extra rights. Email us and we will help.
Affiliate partners we link to, such as Aviasales and Trip.com, run their own sites with their own privacy policies and cookies. Those apply once you click through.
