This Privacy Policy explains how Pheromone Adventures (“we,” “us,” or “our”), accessible at pheromone-adventures.com (the “Site”), collects, uses, and protects information when you visit the Site.
1. Who We Are
Pheromone Adventures operates this website. If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how your data is handled, you can contact us at [email protected].
2. Information We Collect
We collect information in the following ways:
- Information you provide directly — for example, if you contact us by email, fill out a form, leave a comment, or subscribe to a newsletter, we collect the information you submit (such as your name and email address).
- Information collected automatically — when you visit the Site, certain information about your device and browsing activity is collected automatically via cookies and similar technologies, including through Google Analytics (see Section 3).
3. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC (“Google”), to help us understand how visitors use the Site. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect information such as:
- Pages visited and time spent on the Site
- Approximate geographic location (city/country level, derived from IP address)
- Device, browser, and operating system type
- Referring website or search terms that led you to the Site
- General usage patterns and interactions with content
This information is transmitted to and processed by Google. We have not enabled Google Signals or any feature that links Analytics data to individually identifiable Google account information, and IP addresses are anonymized/truncated where Google’s configuration allows it. Google may transfer this data to servers located outside your country of residence, including the United States, and processes it under its own privacy policy and, where applicable, standard contractual clauses or another approved transfer mechanism.
You can learn more about how Google collects and processes data at policies.google.com/privacy, and you can review Google’s data safeguards at safety.google/privacy/privacy-controls.
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
4. Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. In addition to the cookies used by Google Analytics, we may use cookies necessary for the basic functioning of the Site (for example, remembering your cookie consent choice). You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings; note that disabling cookies may affect how the Site functions.

7. Data Retention
