Privacy Policy
Last updated: 29 October 2026
1. Introduction
At esimfortravels.com, we take privacy seriously. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it. We prioritize transparency and security in processing personal data.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information to provide our service and, when you opt in, to measure referrals, traffic and advertising.
Personal Information
- • Email address for delivering eSIM.
- • Order history.
Payment Information
Processed by secure third-party processors. We do not see or store your card numbers.
Technical Information
We also collect technical data such as IP address and browser type for security and to improve user experience.
3. How We Use Information
We use your information to:
- Process orders and send eSIMs to your inbox.
- Provide customer support.
- Improve the website and service.
- Send important updates regarding your order.
- Comply with legal obligations (e.g. accounting).
4. Sharing Information
We do not share your personal information with third parties unless necessary:
- Payment Processors: To complete the transaction securely.
- Network Providers: To activate the eSIM plan.
- Legal Authorities: If required by law.
- Optional measurement: With your consent, Google Analytics / Google Ads and OpenAI advertising measurement receive measurement data. These tags remain blocked before consent, after rejection or withdrawal, and while Global Privacy Control is enabled.
5. Cookies
Essential checkout and your selected preferences work without optional tracking. Referral attribution, page and checkout-funnel analytics, and advertising measurement run only after you click Accept. Decline leaves them off. Use in the footer to withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal clears our optional browser identifiers and reloads the page to stop loaded measurement tags. We also treat Global Privacy Control as a rejection of all optional tracking, including when a previous choice was Accept.
| Browser storage | Purpose and duration |
|---|---|
| fp_cookie_consent | Remembers Accept or Decline. No automatic expiry; retained until changed or browser storage is cleared. It is not a visitor identifier. |
| fp_ref | Last accepted affiliate referral and click time, used to attribute a later purchase. No fixed expiry while the referral remains available and the partnership is active. Replaced by a later referral and removed on rejection, withdrawal or GPC. |
| fp_core_ref_*, legacy fp_tracked_view_* | Deduplicates affiliate view counts. No automatic expiry; removed on rejection, withdrawal or GPC. The legacy tracked-view keys are no longer created. |
| fp_session_id, fp_checkout_session_id, fp_pv_source, fp_referrer | Optional visit and checkout measurement, retained in session storage for the browser tab/session. Removed on rejection, withdrawal or GPC. Previously persisted referrer values are also removed. |
| fp_utm_*, fp_oppref | Optional campaign attribution. No automatic expiry; removed on rejection, withdrawal or GPC, or when browser storage is cleared. |
| _gcl_ls and Google _gcl_* / _gac_* storage | Optional advertising-click attribution. Removed from our origin's accessible local/session storage and cookies on rejection, withdrawal or GPC. LocalStorage itself has no browser-enforced expiry. |
| __obref, __oppref | Optional OpenAI advertising browser reference and click attribution. Vendor cookie lifetimes while consent is granted are up to 365 and 30 days respectively. Removed from our origin on rejection, withdrawal or GPC, even when the SDK is blocked from loading. |
| oaiq_consent, __oaiq_consent | OpenAI measurement-consent preferences containing only true or false, not visitor identifiers. Existing preferences are set to false on rejection, withdrawal or GPC; rejection/GPC records a denial even if the SDK does not load. LocalStorage has no automatic expiry; the cookie lasts 30 days from its last write. A new explicit Accept is needed to enable optional tracking again after GPC rejection. |
Referrals are not saved or attached to checkout when optional tracking is off. An affiliate discount code entered explicitly at checkout can still apply independently. Clearing browser storage or using another browser/device can prevent link attribution. Essential order records remain necessary to deliver purchases and reconcile commissions.
Partner referral checks use a separate test page with optional tracking disabled. A requested check verifies the referral-to-partner mapping and issues a signed result valid for one hour, visible only in the matching private partner account. It creates no order, sale, commission or customer-demand analytics entry. Check results are not stored as visit records.
Withdrawing consent stops future optional collection and clears the browser values described above. It does not automatically delete measurement already received or essential order records. Contact us about access or deletion requests.
6. Data Retention
We store your information as long as necessary:
- Order History: 3 years.
- Communications: 2 years.
- Technical Logs: 1 year.
7. Your Rights
You have the right to access, correct, or delete your data under privacy laws.
8. Security
We protect your data with:
- SSL Encryption for all data transmission.
- Secure Hosting with reputable providers.
- Restricted Access for personnel.
9. Changes
We update this policy regularly. Significant changes will be communicated.
