YOUR INFORMATION AND YOUR TRUST

Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information this website collects, why it is used, and the choices available to you.

Who we are

Henfling on the Horizon is the personal travel-planning website of Christopher Henfling, an independent travel advisor affiliated with Advanced Travel Consultants. The website address is henflingonthehorizon.com.

Information you choose to share

When you use a contact, trip-planning, review, or traveler-reflection form, you may provide information such as your name, email address, destination ideas, approximate travel dates, who is traveling, and details you choose to include in your message. Please do not submit passport numbers, payment information, detailed medical records, or other highly sensitive information through these website forms.

How the information is used

  • To respond to questions and discuss possible travel plans.
  • To provide requested travel-planning assistance.
  • To review traveler stories or reviews and determine whether permission was granted to quote them.
  • To operate, protect, and improve the website.

Personal information is not sold. If you choose to book travel, information needed to arrange that booking may be shared separately with the affiliated agency, travel suppliers, or service providers involved in your trip, with your knowledge and as necessary to provide the requested service.

Reviews, reflections, and comments

Form responses are received privately. A review or traveler reflection will not be quoted publicly unless the permission selected by the person submitting it allows publication. Public comments are held for manual approval before appearing. When comments are submitted, the information entered in the comment form—as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser information—may be processed for spam prevention and site security.

WordPress, Jetpack, cookies, and analytics

This website is hosted on WordPress.com and uses WordPress and Jetpack services for forms, comments, security, spam protection, website performance, and basic visitor statistics. These services may process technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and cookies. If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for convenience. Learn more in Automattic’s Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

How long information is kept

Messages and form responses may be retained for as long as reasonably needed to respond, assist with travel planning, maintain appropriate business records, and meet legal or administrative obligations. Approved comments and their associated metadata may remain on the site unless removal is requested or required.

Links to other websites

The Guides page links to government agencies, travel resources, and downloadable documents. Other websites have their own privacy practices, and this policy does not control information collected after you leave Henfling on the Horizon.

Your choices

You may ask what personal information you have submitted through this website, request a correction, or ask that it be deleted when there is no legal or administrative reason to retain it. Use the Let’s Plan a Trip form and state that your message concerns privacy.

Policy updates

This policy may be updated as the website, its forms, or its service providers change. The current version will always appear on this page.
