Privacy and use of cookies on this site

This site (mforamsterdam.com) does not store any data from visitors and does not itself use cookies or trackers.

Data stored when you book a tour

When you book a tour with me online, your details are stored in the booking to process your request. These details will not be used for any other purposes and will not be shared with any third party.

If you have booked a tour with me at some time and would like to request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, send us a request through the Contact Form. Note that this does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

YouTube cookies

We embed videos from YouTube using YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode. This mode may set cookies on your computer once you click on the YouTube video player (for bandwidth-discovery and views-increment), but YouTube will not store personally-identifiable cookie information for playbacks of embedded videos using the privacy-enhanced mode. The embedded videos do not set cookies themselves and can be played with no cookies set.

Privacy Enhanced Mode allows embedding YouTube videos without using cookies that track viewing behavior. This means no activity is collected to personalize the viewing experience. Instead, video recommendations are contextual and related to the current video. Videos playing in Privacy Enhanced Mode won’t influence the viewer’s browsing experience on YouTube.

For more information on how YouTube uses cookies, please refer to Google’s privacy policy.

Contact form

The name and email address you provide in the contact form are only used to send your request by mail to mforamsterdam.com and for me to be able to respond to your request. They will not be used for any other purposes, are not stored on this website and will not be shared with any third party.

Instagram

We use an Instagram Feed plugin to display Instagram content on our “Blog Archives & Instagram” page. Our website makes requests to Instagram’s servers in order to get the data to populate the feed and to display images and videos. These requests make your IP address visible to Instagram, who may use it as explained in their data privacy policy:
