Privacy Policy

Allisles.com ("Allisles," "we," "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you use our website, how we use it, and the choices you have. We provide free Caribbean travel guides—we do not sell your personal information.

Information we collect

Depending on how you use Allisles, we may process:

Usage and technical data. Such as pages viewed, approximate region derived from IP address, browser type, device type, referral URLs, and timestamps. This helps us understand how the encyclopedia is used and fix technical issues.
Cookies and similar technologies. Small files or identifiers stored on your device for essential site operation, preferences, and—where you allow—analytics. See the Cookie Policy for detail.
Information you send us voluntarily. If you email us (for example corrections or privacy requests), we receive the address you write from and the content of your message.

We do not ask you to create an account to read guides. We do not sell personal data and do not share information with third parties for their independent marketing purposes except as described under third-party services below.

How we use information

We use the information above to:

Operate, secure, and improve the website and content delivery;
Measure aggregated traffic and engagement (for example which regions or guides are most viewed);
Respond to messages you send us;
Comply with applicable law and protect our rights and users.

Analytics are used in aggregate form to guide editorial priorities—not to profile individual travelers for advertising auctions on Allisles.

Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies in these broad categories:

Essential / functional. Required for core features such as load balancing, security, or remembering basic preferences.
Analytics. Where enabled, to understand traffic patterns and performance. See our Cookie Policy for how to limit analytics cookies.

Third-party services

Parts of Allisles rely on vendors that may process limited technical data when their services load:

Pexels — stock photography used for hero and illustrative imagery. When images load, Pexels or its CDN may receive standard request data consistent with normal web requests.
Supabase — database and backend infrastructure that powers island content and application data. Queries may transit encrypted connections; Supabase processes data according to its role as our infrastructure provider.

Each vendor has its own privacy policy; we encourage you to review them if you want detail beyond what we host directly on allisles.com.

Depending on where you live, privacy laws may grant you rights such as access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or objection to certain processing.
