This policy explains what happens when you read Vantage. It is short on purpose — this site does not run accounts, does not ask you to sign up for anything, and does not knowingly collect information from children.
Information We Collect
Vantage does not require registration and does not collect personal information you don't choose to give us directly (for example, if you email us). Like most websites, the pages you visit are served with standard technical information — your browser type, approximate location, and the pages you view — collected automatically through the tools below.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand which dispatches people actually read, so we can spend more time on the destinations that are useful and less time on the ones that aren't. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect anonymised usage data. You can opt out using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, or by adjusting your browser's cookie settings.
Advertising
Vantage carries a small number of third-party ad placements to help cover the cost of research and travel behind each piece. Our advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads and measure their performance; this may include collecting information about your visits to this and other websites. We do not control these third-party cookies directly — you can manage or disable them through your browser settings, or through aboutads.info.
Cookies
Cookies set by analytics and advertising partners may remain on your device between visits. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings; doing so may affect how some pages behave but will not prevent you from reading the journal.
Third-Party Links
Articles on this site link out to official parks, museums, and travel resources. Once you leave Vantage, that site's own privacy policy applies, not ours.
Changes to This Policy
If this policy changes in any meaningful way, the date at the top of this page will be updated.
