Privacy policy

DRAFT, to be completed before launch. Last updated: October 2026

Who we are

Package Sidekick is run by Andrew Woodbine in the United Kingdom. Contact: [ADD EMAIL]. We are the data controller for personal data collected through this website.

Email list

If you sign up for the post-booking checklist, we collect your email address, your departure date and destination, and optionally your first name, return date and trip type. We use them only to send the checklist and reminders timed to your trip (some include clearly labelled affiliate links). We use MailerLite to store and send these emails [CONFIRM the contracting entity and data location in MailerLite's DPA]. The lawful basis is your consent, given by ticking the box and confirming by email, which you can withdraw at any time using the unsubscribe link in every email. We clear your travel dates once your trip has passed and the follow-up email has gone [CONFIRM: e.g. within 30 days], and remove inactive subscribers after [CONFIRM: e.g. 12 months].

Analytics

[State the tool. A cookieless option, such as Cloudflare Web Analytics, avoids the need for a consent banner. If you use Google Analytics or ad networks that set non-essential cookies, you must get consent under PECR first.]

Advertising (future)

[If display ads are added, for example through Journey by Mediavine or Raptive, describe the ad partners, cookies and consent management platform here.]

Affiliate links and cookies

When you click an affiliate link, the partner or affiliate network may set cookies to record that you came from us. Those cookies are controlled by the partner, under its own privacy policy. We receive booking and commission data, but not your name or payment details.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have rights to access, correct and delete your personal data, and to object to processing. You can also complain to the ICO (ico.org.uk).

Hosting

[Hosting provider, e.g. Cloudflare Pages.]
