This Privacy Policy explains how soussmassanationalpark.com (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website.
Who we are
Our website address is: https://soussmassanationalpark.com. We publish information about Souss-Massa National Park, including guides on wildlife, conservation, and visiting the park.
What information we collect
We do not require visitors to create an account, and our website does not have a comment section. The only personal information we collect directly is what you choose to submit through our contact form.
Contact form
When you use the contact form on our /contact page, we collect the information you enter, such as your name, email address, and message. We use this information solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to a mailing list or share this information with third parties, except where necessary to operate the form itself (for example, our form plugin or hosting provider), or where required by law.
Messages submitted through the contact form are retained only for as long as needed to handle your inquiry, after which they may be deleted.
Automatically collected information
Like most websites, our server and any analytics tools we use may automatically log standard technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, and the date and time of your visit. This information is used only in aggregate to understand site traffic and improve the website, and is not used to identify you personally.
Cookies
Our website does not use cookies for logins or comments, since neither feature exists on this site. We may use a small number of cookies for basic website functionality and, if enabled, for analytics purposes (see below). You can disable cookies through your browser settings at any time; doing so will not prevent you from browsing the site.
Analytics
We may use Google Analytics and Google Search Console to understand how visitors use our website, such as which pages are most popular and how visitors found the site. These services may use cookies and collect information such as your IP address (which may be anonymized) and browsing behavior on our site. This data is processed by Google in accordance with the Google Privacy Policy. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Embedded content and external links
Some pages on our site may include embedded content (for example, maps or videos) or links to external websites, such as tour booking pages or reference sources like Wikipedia and the IUCN Red List. Embedded content behaves as if you visited the other website directly, and those websites may collect data about you, use their own cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
Media
Images on this website do not contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS) that would allow visitors to extract your location from photos we publish.
Who we share your data with
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share information with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate the website (such as our hosting provider or contact form plugin), and only to the extent necessary for them to perform their services. We may also disclose information if required to do so by law.
How long we retain your data
Contact form submissions are kept only as long as needed to respond to and resolve your inquiry. Aggregated, non-identifying analytics data may be retained longer to help us understand trends over time.
Your rights over your data
If you have submitted information through our contact form, you can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, or ask us to delete it, by contacting us through the /contact page. This does not apply to data we are required to retain for legal or administrative reasons.
Children’s privacy
Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices or for legal reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date.
