Privacy & Cookie Policy

At DisTrips and More (“DisTrips and More”), we want you to know how we collect, use, share, and protect information about you. By interacting with DisTrips and More through our websites, social media accounts, products, and services, you consent to the use of information that is collected or submitted as described in this privacy policy. We may change or add to this privacy policy, so we encourage you to review it periodically.

This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit or make a purchase from https://distripsandmore.com/ (the “Site”).

We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.”

We collect Device Information using the following technologies:

  • “Cookies” are data files that are placed on your device or computer and often include an anonymous unique identifier. For more information about cookies, and how to disable cookies, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
  • “Log files” track actions occurring on the Site, and collect data including your IP address, browser type, Internet service provider, referring/exit pages, and date/time stamps.
  • “Web beacons,” “tags,” and “pixels” are electronic files used to record information about how you browse the Site.
