Plain-language privacy policy for visitdcnow.com. We collect as little as possible, and this page explains exactly what that is.
What we collect
Newsletter signup. If you join our newsletter, you give us your email address. It is sent through FormSubmit to [email protected] so we can send you DC travel updates. We never sell your email address, and you can unsubscribe at any time by replying to any newsletter email.
We do not run user accounts, comments, or contact forms beyond the newsletter signup, so we do not collect names, passwords, or other personal details directly.
Cookies and third-party services
Embedded videos. Some articles embed videos from our YouTube channel using YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode. When you play one, Google/YouTube may set cookies and receive information such as your IP address and the page you visited, under Google's Privacy Policy.
Affiliate links. Some links on this site — including hotel and tour links — are affiliate links served through our partner Travelpayouts. If you book through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Travelpayouts may use cookies to track referrals, under Travelpayouts' Privacy Policy.
Advertising. We use Google AdSense to show ads. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings.
Hosting and security. This site is hosted on Cloudflare, which processes standard technical data (such as IP addresses in server logs) to deliver pages securely and protect against abuse, under Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.
Your choices
You can block cookies in your browser settings at any time; the site will still work, though embedded videos may not play until you allow them. To have your newsletter email removed from our list, email [email protected].
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle data, we will update this page and the date above.
