Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 19, 2026
Who we are
TDAC Guide is an independent, non-commercial informational website about the Thailand Digital Arrival Card. It is not affiliated with the Royal Thai Government or any private visa or arrival-card service. This policy explains what data exists when you visit.
Information we collect
- From you, directly: nothing. There are no accounts, comment forms or newsletter sign-ups.
- In your browser: two local-storage values - your consent-banner choice and your light/dark theme preference. Both stay on your device and are never transmitted to us.
- By our hosting provider: standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages requested) kept for security and troubleshooting, as is normal for any website host.
Cookies and local storage
We set no cookies of our own. The only browser storage we use is local storage: the consent value ("accepted" or "declined") and your theme choice ("light" or "dark"). Clear your browser's site data for this website to remove both at any time.
Advertising and Google AdSense
If this website displays advertising, it is served through third-party networks such as Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You may opt out of third-party vendors' cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info/choices and optout.networkadvertising.org.
- For more about how Google uses data, see policies.google.com/technologies/ads.
Where required by law (for example in the EEA or the UK), advertising partners request consent before setting non-essential cookies, which is what our consent banner is for.
No sale of personal data
We never sell, rent, trade or otherwise share personal data with third parties for money or for free. This website sells nothing and runs no commercial transactions.
Third-party links
Our pages link to external websites - Thai government portals, Wikipedia and private services we describe factually. Those sites have their own privacy policies, which we do not control. Read their policies before providing them with any personal information.
Your rights (GDPR / CCPA)
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or port your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Because we hold no visitor profiles, exercising these rights is simple: clear your browser's site data for this website to erase everything stored on your device, and use the opt-out links in Section 4 for advertising cookies. For hosting-provider server logs, contact us via the details in Section 11.
Children's privacy
This is a general-audience travel information website. We knowingly collect no personal information from anyone, including children under 13.
Data retention
Local-storage values are kept until you clear them. Server logs kept by the hosting provider are retained only as long as needed for security and troubleshooting.
Changes to this policy
If this website's behaviour changes, this page will be updated with a new "Last updated" date. Changes will never introduce the sale or sharing of personal data.
Contact
This project runs no newsletter or account system, so the fastest channel for privacy questions is the site owner's published contact on the About This Site page. We respond to data-related requests within the timeframes required by applicable law.
Consent
By clicking "Accept" on the consent banner you agree to the use of cookies as described in Section 4. "Decline" stores your refusal, and non-essential advertising cookies should not be set for your visits. You can change your decision at any time by clearing this website's site data in your browser - the banner will appear again.
