Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026

Short version: we don't sell your data, we don't run cross-site tracking, and we only store what's needed to make the site work (like your saved places, locally on your device).

1.Who we are

Jersey Island Travel is an independent, non-profit visitor guide run by a local resident on the island of Jersey, Channel Islands. We are not affiliated with the Government of Jersey, Visit Jersey, or any tourism board. See our About page.

2.What we collect

  • Saved places & trip plans - stored locally in your browser (localStorage). They never leave your device unless you sign in.
  • If you sign in (optional, only on certain features) - your email and the trip plans you save to your account.
  • Basic, aggregated analytics - page views and approximate country/region. No personal profiles, no ad tracking.
  • Server logs - short-lived technical logs (IP, browser) needed to keep the site online and protect against abuse.

3.What we do NOT do

  • We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with advertisers.
  • We do not run third-party advertising trackers.
  • We do not build a profile of you across other websites.

4.Third parties we rely on

  • Map tiles from OpenStreetMap contributors.
  • Hosting and database infrastructure (used only to serve the site).
  • AI services that power the trip planner - your planner inputs are sent to them to generate an itinerary, and are not used to train models or identify you.

5.AI Planner (beta)

Our AI Planner is a beta feature. It produces AI-generated suggestions that may be inaccurate or out of date - including opening hours, prices and seasonal availability. Treat any itinerary it produces as a suggestion only, not a booking or guarantee, and verify details with the venue's official website before you go. The site itself is free to use.

6.Listings & venue owners

If you're the owner or manager of an attraction, restaurant, hotel or pub featured on the site, you can ask us to update your photo, fix a description, change opening hours or correct any other detail - for free. Just email us at jerseyislandapp@gmail.com with the new info (or a better photo you'd like us to use) and we'll get your listing updated.

7.Cookies

We use a minimal number of cookies / localStorage entries. Details are on the Cookies page.

8.Your rights

Under the Data Protection (Jersey) Law 2018, Jersey Island Guide acts as the data controller for the limited personal data described in this policy, and you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Correct data that is inaccurate or incomplete
  • Ask us to delete your data
  • Object to, or ask us to restrict, certain processing
  • Receive the data you provided us in a portable format, where technically possible

Most of this you can do yourself: clear your saved data anytime from your browser storage, or delete your account if you created one. For anything else - a copy of your data, a correction, or a full deletion request - email us at jerseyislandapp@gmail.com and we'll act on it promptly.

If you believe we've mishandled your data, you also have the right to complain to the Jersey Office of the Information Commissioner (JOIC), the island's independent data protection regulator.

9.Children

This site is intended for general audiences. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

10.Changes

If we update this policy, the date at the top will change. Material changes will be highlighted on the homepage.

This policy is a plain-English summary, not legal advice.
