How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to provide, maintain, and improve our services. This includes delivering accurate information about gentle outdoor activities suitable for those over 45, maintaining our guides on marked trails, and ensuring our website functions properly.

Your information helps us personalize your experience, respond to your inquiries about specific hiking routes, and understand which aspects of our trail guides are most valuable to you. We may also use aggregated, non-personally identifiable data to analyze trends and optimize our content about parks and walking routes across the Czech regions we cover.

We do not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third parties. We may share information only when required by law or to protect our rights and safety.

Your Rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information at any time. Under GDPR and Czech data protection laws, you can request a copy of the data we hold about you, ask us to correct inaccurate information, or request deletion of your data.

You also have the right to withdraw consent for cookies and tracking technologies. You can adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies, though some features of our website may not function optimally without them.

If you believe we have mishandled your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Czech Office for Personal Data Protection. We encourage you to contact us first so we can address your concerns.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience and gather analytics about how visitors use our trail guides and park information. Cookies are small files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences and track your navigation through our content about Divoská Šárka walks, Pálava hills routes, and other senior-friendly outdoor spaces.

We use both session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which remain on your device). We also use third-party analytics tools to understand usage patterns and improve our services.

You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent. Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of certain features on our website.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. We use encryption, secure servers, and regular security assessments to maintain the confidentiality of your data.

While we strive to protect your information, no security system is completely impenetrable. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we are committed to maintaining industry-standard protections for your personal data.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required by law. Contact information provided through inquiry forms is retained for one year unless you request deletion earlier.

Analytics and usage data are typically retained for up to two years. Cookies are managed according to their specific expiration dates, which vary depending on their function.

Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to external websites with information about parks, trails, and tourist attractions. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third-party sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information to them.

Children's Privacy

Our website is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected information from a child under 13, we will promptly delete such information and notify the parent or guardian.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on our website and updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
