⚡ Affiliate disclosure (the short version)

WarmMiles uses affiliate links. When you click a link and make a booking or purchase, we may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you. This is how we keep the site free and the guides honest. We only recommend things we genuinely believe in.

1. Affiliate disclosure

WarmMiles participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means that some of the links on this website are affiliate links — when you click them and complete a purchase or booking, we receive a small commission from the partner at no additional cost to you.

Our affiliate partners include, but are not limited to:

All affiliate links are marked with rel="sponsored" in the HTML where required. Posts that contain affiliate links are written with the same editorial standards as all other content — our recommendations are never influenced by whether a commission is available.

If you have questions about our affiliate relationships, please contact us.

2. What data we collect

Information you give us

When you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address. We use this only to send you travel guides and updates. We never sell your email to third parties.

Information collected automatically

When you visit WarmMiles, we may automatically collect:

This data is used only to understand how our content performs and improve the user experience. It is not linked to your personal identity.

Information from affiliate clicks

When you click an affiliate link, our partners (e.g. Booking.com, GetYourGuide) may set their own cookies and collect data according to their own privacy policies. We do not receive any personally identifiable information from these partners — only aggregated commission reports.

3. Cookies

WarmMiles uses cookies for the following purposes:

Essential cookies

These are required for the website to function. They include session management and security. You cannot opt out of these.

Analytics cookies

We use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics or Plausible Analytics) to understand how visitors use the site. These cookies track page views, session duration, and traffic sources in an anonymised way.

Affiliate tracking cookies

When you click an affiliate link, our partners place tracking cookies on your browser. These cookies allow the partner to attribute a sale or booking to our referral. Cookie durations vary by partner — typically between 30 and 90 days.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of third-party booking services linked from this site.
