Privacy Policy

Welcome to Off Beat Pathfinder. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you explore our weird, wonderful world of travel. By using our site, you agree to the terms outlined below — Blaze wouldn't steer you wrong.

1. What We Collect

• Your name and email address
• Device type, approximate location, and browser info
• Survey responses and destination interests
• Forum posts, travel preferences, and badge activity

2. How We Use That Info

We use your information to make Off Beat Pathfinder feel like a travel experience tailored just for you. Here’s how Blaze might put your data to work:

• Send you personalized destination ideas
• Offer updates, travel tips, and important site notices
• Display content we think you’ll love (or laugh at)
• Improve site performance and user experience

3. Communication Style: All Blaze, No Spam

By joining Off Beat Pathfinder, you may occasionally receive cheerful messages from Blaze. These could include:

• Emails with itinerary tips or quirky travel suggestions
• Text messages with trip updates or alerts (rare, and only if you’ve opted in)
• Site-based notifications like, “Hey, your next offbeat adventure is calling!”

You can opt out anytime. Blaze won’t take it personally — but you may miss a jackalope sighting.

4. Advertising & Sponsored Shenanigans

We may show you curated ads and travel deals that match your interests (because who really wants generic banner ads about printer ink?). These may be powered by internal systems or trusted partners. We never sell your personal info, but we may work with third parties who help keep the lights on and the trail blazing.

5. Cookies (the Non-Edible Kind)

Our site uses cookies and local storage to remember who you are, keep you logged in, and make Blaze feel more personal. You can clear cookies via your browser settings anytime — but some site features might act a bit wonky without them.

6. Data Security & Retention

We take reasonable precautions to protect your data and prevent unauthorized access. Information is retained only as long as needed to provide you with services, improve the platform, and meet legal requirements.

7. Kids, Minors, and Young Explorers

Off Beat Pathfinder is intended for users 16 and older. We don’t knowingly collect personal data from children under 16. If you’re a parent or guardian and believe your child has shared info with us, contact us so we can remove it.

8. Your Privacy Choices

You can access, update, or delete your profile data at any time. You may also request account removal by contacting our team through the Contact Page.

9. Updates to This Policy

We may update this policy over time. We’ll always post the latest version right here, and if it’s a big enough change to wake a sleeping javelina, we’ll let you know.

10. Got Questions?

If you have any questions about this policy or how your information is used, just ask Blaze — or email us via the Contact Page.

Thanks for trusting Off Beat Pathfinder. Now get out there and explore something unforgettable.
