Karadventures is a personal travel blog written by Kara Barros. This page explains what information the site collects, why, and what you can do about it. It is written in plain English on purpose.
Who runs this site
Karadventures (karadventures.com) is run by Kara Barros. If you have any question about your information, or you want it deleted, get in touch through any of the links in the site footer and I will take care of it.
The newsletter
If you sign up for the Karadventures newsletter, I ask for your first name and your email address. I use them to send you new posts, travel tips, and occasional updates — nothing else. I do not sell, rent, or trade your details with anyone.
The newsletter runs on beehiiv, which stores the subscriber list and sends the emails on my behalf. beehiiv also records the ordinary things an email platform records — whether an email was opened, and whether a link in it was clicked — so I can see which posts people enjoy. beehiiv’s own privacy policy covers how they handle that data.
Every email has an unsubscribe link at the bottom. One click and you are off the list for good. You can also email me and I will remove you myself.
Comments
If you leave a comment on a post, the site saves the name, email address, and website you type into the comment form, along with your IP address and browser information. That is standard WordPress behaviour and it helps catch spam. Your name and comment are shown publicly; your email address is not.
Cookies and site logs
Karadventures does not run advertising trackers or third-party analytics. The site does use a small number of ordinary cookies: WordPress sets one if you leave a comment, so your details are filled in next time, and the site’s caching software sets one so pages load quickly.
The site is hosted by Hostinger, whose servers keep routine access logs (IP address, date and time, which page was requested). These are used for security and troubleshooting.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. The site will still work.
Affiliate links
Some links on Karadventures are affiliate links. If you book a stay, buy gear, or grab something through one of them, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. Those companies may set their own cookies to record that the visit came from here. It never changes what I recommend.
Other sites this one links to
The footer links to Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, and there is a Ko-fi button if you would like to buy me a thai tea. Once you follow one of those links you are on their site, under their privacy policy, not this one. Ko-fi handles any payment entirely — no card details ever pass through Karadventures.
Your choices
- Unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time, using the link in any email.
- Ask me for a copy of the information I hold about you.
- Ask me to correct it, or to delete it entirely.
- Ask for a comment of yours to be removed.
Just email me and say what you would like. I will not ask you why.
Children
Karadventures is not aimed at children under 13, and I do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has signed up, email me and I will delete the record.
