Privacy policy
There is very little to say here, which is the point.

What we store on your device
KarismaTrip uses your browser’s local storage, not cookies. Local storage is not transmitted to us — it stays in your browser and we cannot read it remotely. We use it for:
| What | Why |
|---|---|
karismatrip-theme | Remembers whether you chose light or dark |
karismatrip:budget:v2 | Your budget calculator figures, so a refresh does not lose them |
karismatrip:packing:* | Your packing list settings and which items you have ticked |
karismatrip:fx:* | The last currency pair you converted |
You can delete all of it at any time by clearing site data in your browser settings. Nothing breaks — the tools simply start fresh.
Offline storage
If your browser supports it, a service worker saves pages you have visited so that guides remain readable without a connection. This is a cache on your device. Clearing site data removes it.
What we do not do
- No accounts. There is no sign-up, so we hold no email addresses, names or passwords.
- No advertising or tracking cookies. None at all, which is why you have not been shown a cookie banner — under the ePrivacy rules, storage that is strictly necessary for a feature you asked for does not require consent.
- No cross-site profiling. We do not use tracking pixels, fingerprinting, ad networks or data brokers.
- No selling data. We have nothing to sell and would not sell it if we did.
Server logs
Our hosting provider records standard technical logs for every request — IP address, timestamp, page requested, browser user-agent — as is necessary to operate any website and to defend it against abuse. These are retained for a short period by the provider and are not combined with anything else or used to build a profile of you.
The lawful basis for this, under UK GDPR and GDPR Article 6(1)(f), is legitimate interest: running a website securely and reliably.
Third-party services
Some content is fetched from external services. Where that happens on our server, those services see our server, not you. Two exceptions send a request from your browser:
- OpenStreetMap map tiles, on city pages with a map. Their servers receive your IP address and the tiles you request, as with any image. See the OSM Foundation privacy policy.
- Wikimedia image hosting, where a guide has a photo. See the Wikimedia privacy policy.
Everything else — weather, exchange rates, visa guidance, guide text — is fetched server-side and cached, so your browser never contacts those providers.
If you write to us
There is no contact form on this site and nothing you type here is submitted anywhere. If you email the address below, we hold your message and address for as long as it takes to deal with it, and we use it only to reply. We do not add you to a mailing list.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR and GDPR you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection. In practice we hold no personal data about you, so there is usually nothing to exercise them against — the data the tools create is already in your hands and you can delete it yourself.
If you have written to us and want that correspondence deleted, ask and we will. If you believe we have handled data improperly, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
Children
This site is not directed at children and we knowingly collect no data from anyone. There is no account to create and no profile to build.
Changes
If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it. If we ever begin collecting personal data — for example by adding a hosted contact form or analytics — this page will say so before that goes live, not after.
