Miles to Paradise is run by Justin Rasmussen from Minnesota, USA. This page explains, in plain language, what information this website collects, why, and who else touches it. If anything here is unclear, email justin@milestoparadise.com.
What information do I collect?
- Your email address, when you subscribe to the free weekly newsletter or the popup offer.
- Intake and request forms: when you submit a trip request, cruise request, or card strategy intake, I receive what you type: your name, email, travel plans, points balances, and (for the strategy session) your business and spending categories.
- Basic technical data such as your browser type and pages visited, if analytics is enabled on the site.
What do I never ask for?
I never need your passwords, full card numbers, Social Security number, or the login for any loyalty or card account. For award bookings you log into your own accounts and I walk you through each step. If anyone asks you for those details in my name, it is not me. Email me.
How is your information used?
Only to do the thing you asked for: reply to a request, deliver your trip options or strategy plan, send the newsletter you signed up for, and improve the site. I do not sell your information and I do not rent or trade my email list.
Which services process it?
- MailerLite sends and stores newsletter subscriptions.
- Formspree receives intake and request form submissions and delivers them to my inbox.
- Netlify hosts the website and may log standard server data such as IP addresses.
- Payment processors handle payments for paid services. I do not see or store your card number.
- Analytics (if enabled) uses a standard web analytics tool to count visits and clicks on card links.
- Fora Travel, my host agency, receives the details needed to book a cruise or other travel when you ask me to book it for you.
Cookies and local storage
The site uses your browser's local storage to remember whether you have already seen or dismissed the newsletter popup, so it does not keep interrupting you. Third-party tools listed above may set their own cookies. You can block or clear cookies in your browser settings without breaking the site.
Referral links
Some card links on this site are personal referral links. If you follow one and are approved, I may earn points. Clicking a link shares no personal information with me. The issuer's own privacy policy applies once you are on their site. See the disclosure in the Terms.
How long do I keep it?
Newsletter subscribers stay on the list until they unsubscribe (every email has a one-click link). Form submissions stay in my inbox as long as needed to serve you and meet basic business record-keeping, then are deleted.
Your choices
You can ask me to show you, correct, or delete the information I hold about you at any time by emailing justin@milestoparadise.com. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter with the link in any email.
Children
This site is written for adults and I do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
Changes
