Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 28, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how CruiseSheet LLC ("CruiseSheet", "we", "us") collects, uses, and shares information when you visit cruisesheet.com or use our cruise search and deal-alert services. We aim to collect only what we need to run the site and help you find cruises.

1. Information We Collect

Information you give us. When you subscribe to deal alerts or our newsletter, or contact us, we collect your email address and any details you choose to provide.

Information collected automatically. When you browse the site we automatically receive standard log and usage data: your IP address, approximate location (derived from your IP), device and browser type, pages viewed, referring pages, and the dates/times of your visits.

Cookies and similar technologies. We use a small number of cookies, including an anonymous identifier cookie to remember your session and preferences, a cookie that records your cookie-consent choice, and analytics cookies that help us understand how the site is used. See "Cookies" below.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To operate, maintain, and improve the website and search experience;
  • To personalize the cruises and deals we show you;
  • To send deal alerts, newsletters, and service messages you have requested (you can opt out at any time);
  • To detect your region so we can comply with local requirements (for example, showing a cookie notice to visitors in the EEA);
  • To monitor performance and diagnose errors so we can keep the site reliable;
  • To detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or security issues, and to comply with our legal obligations.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use:

  • Essential cookies – needed for the site to function and to remember your preferences;
  • Consent cookie – records whether you have accepted our use of cookies so we don't ask again;
  • Analytics cookies – help us measure traffic and improve the site.

You can accept cookies via the banner shown on your first visit, and you can clear or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site works.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share limited information with:

  • Service providers who operate the site on our behalf, including hosting and content-delivery (e.g., Cloudflare), analytics, error monitoring (e.g., Sentry), and email delivery providers;
  • Travel and booking partners – when you follow a link to book a cruise, shore excursion, or tour (for example, our tours partner Viator or our booking partner), your interaction is handled by that partner under its own privacy policy. We may receive a referral or affiliate commission;
  • Legal and safety – where required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, and property of CruiseSheet, our users, or others.

5. Affiliate and Third-Party Links

CruiseSheet is supported in part by affiliate and referral commissions. Pages may contain links to third-party sites (cruise lines, booking platforms, tour operators). We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites; please review their policies.

6. Your Choices and Rights

  • Email: every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can manage your preferences at any time;
  • Cookies: manage consent via the banner or your browser settings;
  • EEA/UK residents (GDPR): you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to our processing of your personal data, and the right to data portability and to withdraw consent;
  • US residents: depending on your state, you may have the right to access or delete your information and to opt out of certain sharing.

To exercise any of these rights, use the email unsubscribe link and the cookie controls described above.

7. Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described here, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Subscription data is kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it.

8. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. International Transfers

We operate from the United States, and our service providers may process data in other countries. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for such transfers.

10. Children's Privacy

CruiseSheet is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and we delete any such information if we become aware of it.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the revised version here with an updated "Last updated" date.
