Effective July 15, 2026
This policy explains how Bucket List Boomers collects, uses, and protects your information when you visit bucketlistboomers.com or sign up for anything on the site.
Bucket List Boomers is run by Doug West. If you have a question after reading this, the contact page is the fastest way to reach him.
When you sign up for the free travel guide or the newsletter, we collect your name and email address. That’s the only personal information the sign-up form asks for.
The site also uses analytics cookies that collect basic technical data automatically: your browser type, your device, and which pages you visit. This data isn’t tied to your name unless you’ve also signed up for the guide or newsletter with that same email address.
We use your email address to send the free guide you requested and, unless you opt out, an occasional newsletter with travel tips and new posts.
We use the analytics data to see which pages and posts actually help readers, so we can write more of what works and less of what doesn’t.
We don’t sell your information to anyone, ever.
The site uses cookies, including analytics cookies, to remember your preferences and understand how the site is used. A cookie notice appears the first time you visit so you know this is happening. The full breakdown of every cookie type lives on the Cookie Policy page.
Some links on this site are affiliate links to flight search tools, hotel booking sites, and tour or car rental platforms. If you click one and book something, we may earn a commission. It costs you nothing extra. Full details are on the Affiliate Disclosure page.
We take reasonable steps to keep your information secure, including working with reputable email and hosting providers. No method of storing or sending data online is 100 percent secure, so we can’t guarantee absolute protection, but we don’t take the responsibility lightly.
Every newsletter email includes an unsubscribe link. Use it any time and we’ll stop sending you emails right away.
You can also ask us to delete the personal information we hold on you. Reach out through the contact page and we’ll take care of it.
This site is for adults planning their own travel. It isn’t directed at children, and we don’t knowingly collect information from anyone under 13.
We may update this policy as the site grows. The effective date at the top will always reflect the most recent version.
This page is written in plain language as a general starting point. It hasn’t been reviewed by a lawyer yet. Doug plans to have that review done before the site is fully live.
