This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and what choices you have.

general guidance about Schengen/EU travel concepts. We are not a government authority and we do not provide legal advice.

Advertising data (via Google AdSense): ad impressions, clicks, and related identifiers/cookies as controlled by the ad provider.
Information you enter on the site (e.g., passport selection, entry date): this is processed in your browser for calculations and UI. We do not intentionally ask for names, email, or passport numbers.
