VISITOR INFORMATION
Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 30, 2026 · Last updated: October 30, 2026
This policy describes how Muay Thai Trip Planner at muaythaigymsinthailand.com handles visitor information. The website is operated by Higuera Services LLC, based in California, USA. Questions and privacy requests: muaythaigymsinthailand@gmail.com.
Your planning information
The budget calculator uses expense amounts, currencies and trip length in your browser. The visa checklist uses U.S. passport nationality, duration, purpose and optional arrival and departure dates. The tools do not ask for your name, passport number, uploaded documents or payment information.
Budget inputs, checklist checkmarks and optional dates are held in page memory and normally reset on reload. The homepage entry form remembers duration, unit and purpose in that browser history entry. When you open your checklist, those three selections are included in the guide URL. The hosting service can receive that URL, and it can remain in your browser history. Avoid sharing a personalized URL if you do not want others to see those selections.
PDFs are generated on your device using the current planner data. The site does not upload the generated PDF to a document server or email service. Your browser and any storage or synchronization service you choose may retain your downloaded files.
Services that receive requests
Delivering pages and external data requires network connections. The receiving service can see connection information such as your IP address, request time, browser information and requested URL. A referrer may be sent according to browser policy.
- Open-Meteo: your browser requests forecasts and modeled air quality for a selected Thailand destination using the site's fixed reference coordinates. It does not request your device's GPS location. Historical seasonal averages are served from a site-hosted file. See Open-Meteo's terms and privacy information.
- ExchangeRate-API: your browser requests reference exchange rates with THB as the fixed base. Your entered expense amounts are not included in this request. See its service and privacy terms.
- OpenAQ: your browser requests a supported city from this site's server. The server queries nearby stations using the operator's API key and destination coordinates; it does not forward your planner entries or visitor IP as an application parameter. See the OpenAQ Privacy Policy.
- U.S. Department of State: this site's server requests the Thailand advisory from its official API or RSS feed. No traveler answers are sent as application parameters. Following official source links opens those external services. See State Department privacy information.
- Google Fonts: the site requests the DM Sans font from Google Fonts to display its existing typography. This connection occurs even when optional analytics is rejected. See Google Fonts privacy information.
- Hosting: OpenAI Sites and Cloudflare infrastructure deliver this website and its server endpoints. Network/request data may be processed for delivery, diagnostics and security. See OpenAI's Privacy Policy and Cloudflare's Privacy Policy. Provider policies and service settings govern technical logs and their retention; those practices can change independently of this website.
External social-media and government links are ordinary links, not embedded social widgets. Their operators receive requests when you follow them. No automated email-delivery provider, mailing-list integration or payment checkout is integrated into the website.
Optional Google Analytics
After you allow analytics, the existing GA4 measurement configuration is used on the homepage and training article to understand page use, traffic sources and website performance. Analytics is not newly enabled on the visa guide or these legal pages.
GA4 may process browser and device information, approximate location, page and referrer information, timestamps and usage events, with cookie identifiers that distinguish browsers and sessions. Google says GA4 uses IP addresses during collection to derive location, then discards them before logging. See Google's regional collection documentation.
This update does not intentionally send typed budget amounts, traveler dates or checklist answers as custom analytics events. The page URL and referrer supplied to the analytics configuration omit query strings and fragments. The tag explicitly disables Google Signals and advertising-personalization signals; advertising consent stays denied.
As of October 30, 2026, the GA4 account settings specify two months for event data and 14 months for user data, with reset on new user activity enabled. This reset can extend user-data retention when a user returns. These settings do not impose the same expiration on standard aggregated reports; cookie lifetimes are separate.
Google Signals is off. One Google Ads account is linked, with personalized advertising disabled for that link. An Ads link can support measurement and data exchange even without personalized advertising. Enhanced measurement is enabled and includes page-view measurement. The operator has enabled Google’s email-address redaction as an additional, best-effort safeguard.
Cookies, local storage and choices
Optional analytics and YouTube embeds stay off until you choose. The initial choices are not preselected. Use in the footer to accept, reject or change them later. Rejecting optional services does not disable the planner, PDFs, weather, AQI or official-source links.
| Item | Purpose and duration |
|---|---|
muayThaiPrivacy.v1 | Remembers your optional-service choices and choice time for up to 180 days on this browser. You can change them sooner or clear browser storage. If storage is unavailable, choices apply only to the open page. |
_ga, _ga_… | GA4 browser/session identifiers, only after analytics consent. Google's documented default cookie lifetime is two years, subject to browser limits and GA4 settings; this is not a claim about this property's analytics-record retention. |
| Exchange-rate, weather and AQI cache entries | Store public response data and fetch timestamps, not budget entries. Freshness checks use one hour for exchange rates, 30 minutes for forecasts, 30 days for historical averages, and short model/station cache windows. These are freshness periods, not guaranteed deletion times; entries can remain until overwritten or browser storage is cleared. |
| Homepage history state and guide URL | Duration/unit/purpose selections retained in browser navigation history; controlled by your browser's history lifecycle. |
When you withdraw analytics permission, the site disables measurement, removes readable first-party GA cookies for this domain and reloads if the analytics tag had loaded. Removing a loaded video permission also reloads the page. Download your checklist first if you need to keep unsaved entries. Withdrawing permission does not erase data already sent to a provider.
The site treats Global Privacy Control and a Do Not Track value of 1 as instructions to keep analytics off, even over an earlier analytics choice. A visitor may still separately enable requested video embeds. This is an implementation choice, not a claim that the same legal obligation applies everywhere.
Google Fonts and requested API/hosting connections continue without optional analytics. Browser or platform security cookies may also be used by hosting infrastructure for service delivery and protection; the linked provider policies describe their practices.
Optional embedded videos
The training guide uses YouTube's privacy-enhanced embed domain. No embedded player or thumbnail is requested before you allow YouTube videos. Enabling videos connects to Google/YouTube, which can receive your network/device information and use storage or identifiers under its own policies. Privacy-enhanced mode does not mean there is no data processing. You can use the original external video link instead. See YouTube's embedding documentation and Google's Privacy Policy.
Messages, retention and security
If you email muaythaigymsinthailand@gmail.com, the operator and the email services involved receive your email address, message and any attachments you choose to send. The contact address uses Gmail. Please send only information needed for your question; do not email passport scans, payment details or medical records.
The application has no visitor account database or planner-submission store. Analytics retention settings are described above. Contact correspondence and hosting logs are handled separately. How long correspondence is retained depends on the purpose of the request, necessary follow-up and applicable recordkeeping requirements. You can contact the operator to ask about retention or request deletion of your correspondence. Infrastructure providers also apply their own retention policies and service settings. Browser caches do not establish their retention periods.
External providers may process information in countries outside your own. The linked provider notices describe their processing practices and available privacy mechanisms; contact the operator with questions about your information. No website, email system or transmission method can be promised completely secure.
Your choices and privacy rights
You can change optional-service consent, clear browser cookies/storage, and contact muaythaigymsinthailand@gmail.com with a privacy question or request. Depending on the law that applies, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data, obtain a portable copy, restrict or object to processing, withdraw consent, or opt out of certain sale, sharing or targeted advertising. You may also be able to complain to your local data-protection regulator. Rights have conditions and exceptions; identity verification may be needed using only proportionate information.
California's CCPA applies only when its coverage requirements are met; other California disclosure rules can have different scope. Other U.S. state laws and EU/UK rules also have their own coverage tests. Which rights apply depends on the relevant law and the circumstances of the processing. Contact the operator to ask about or exercise your applicable rights.
The planning tools do not submit budget amounts or checklist entries to an advertising system. The Analytics property has the Google Ads link described above; Cookie Settings controls optional analytics on this website. We do not ask visitors to provide sensitive information or children's personal details to use the tools.
Future email features — not active
Personalized trip-summary email and newsletter subscriptions are not enabled. If introduced, a requested summary must be distinguished from separately optional marketing consent. Requesting a summary must not automatically subscribe anyone to a newsletter.
Before email collection starts, the operator must identify the provider, data fields, purpose, retention, deletion process, applicable transfer arrangements, subscription records and unsubscribe process, then update this policy and the collection notices. Marketing messages may require a valid postal address and other disclosures. No mailing-list sign-up is part of this update.
Changes and questions
Material changes to data handling should be explained before they take effect and require fresh consent where applicable. The effective date and last-updated date appear at the top of this policy. Contact Higuera Services LLC at muaythaigymsinthailand@gmail.com for questions.
