At PointsToPictures (https://pointstopictures.com), the privacy of our visitors is of extreme importance to us. This policy outlines the types of personal information received and collected by the Site and how it is used.


1. Who We Are

Our website address is: https://pointstopictures.com. This platform is a personal travel and rewards blog.

2. Comments and Media

  • Comments: When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the comments form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist in spam detection. An anonymized string (hash) created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it.
  • Media: If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors can download and extract any location data from images on the Site.

3. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies to improve your experience and to help us understand how the Site is used.

  • User Preference Cookies: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name and email in cookies for your convenience. These cookies last for one year.
  • Login Cookies: Temporary cookies are set on our login page to determine if your browser accepts them. If you log in, we set cookies to save your login information and screen display choices.

4. Third-Party Advertising

Third-party ad servers or ad networks may also use cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content you see. PointsToPictures has no access to or control over these cookies used by third-party advertisers.

5. Affiliate Disclosures

In accordance with our “How We Make Money” transparency standard, we may participate in various affiliate marketing programs. When you click on an affiliate link (such as for a credit card or hotel booking), a cookie may be placed in your browser to track any resulting sales for purposes of commissions. This tracking is done by third-party networks and is subject to their own privacy policies.

6. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this Site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.

7. How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
  • User Profiles: For users that register on our website (if any), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time.

8. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this Site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
