Privacy Policy
Wait or Fly runs waitorfly.com, an information site that compares waiting times at home with published prices for treatment abroad. This page describes what the site actually does with data. Questions go to contact@waitorfly.com.
What we collect and why
The site has no accounts, no sign-up and no forms. You can read every page without giving us anything.
Emails you send us
If you email contact@waitorfly.com, we receive your address and message and use them to reply.
Visit counts
We count page views with two cookie-free tools: a self-hosted Umami server and the visit log of our own gateway server. For each page view they receive the page path (never anything after a # sign), the referring site, campaign tags in the link (such as utm_source), browser and device type, screen width, language and country-level location. Your browser keeps a random visit number in session storage for 30 minutes so a visit can be counted once; it is not a cookie and is not shared with other sites. The tools respect your browser's Do Not Track setting. Like any web server, they see your IP address when you connect; we do not store it in the visit log.
The calculator
The calculator runs entirely in your browser. The numbers you type are not sent to us; we only count that the calculator was used.
Advertising
The site shows no ads and uses no advertising cookies. If we add Google AdSense later, we will first add a consent tool for visitors in the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland, and update this page before any ad loads.
Who processes the data
- Cloudflare (United States, global network): hosts the pages, receives email for contact@waitorfly.com, stores our inbox and sends our replies.
- Our gateway server (the Netherlands, rented from Hostinger): stores the visit log.
- Umami: analytics software we run ourselves; it receives the visit counts described above.
Some of these providers process data outside your country, including in the United States. We rely on their standard contractual terms for such transfers.
How long we keep it
We keep emails while we may need them to answer follow-up questions; we do not yet delete them automatically. Ask us and we delete yours within 30 days. Visit-log entries contain no name or email address.
Your rights
You can ask what we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to how we use it. Write to contact@waitorfly.com; we answer within 30 days. If you are in the EEA or the UK you may also complain to your data protection authority. California residents: we do not sell or share personal information.
Children
This site is written for adults. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If a child has emailed us, tell us and we will delete the message.
Security
Pages use HTTPS. Access to the inbox is limited to the people who answer email.
Changes
We update this page when our practices change and show the date above.
