Park Day Packing ("we," "us") runs parkdaypacking.com. This page explains what information is collected when you visit, and how it's used.
What we collect
We don't ask you for personal information. There are no accounts, comments or contact forms on this site right now.
Basic server logs. Like most websites, our hosting provider automatically records basic technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, the pages you view and the time of your visit. This is used to keep the site running and secure.
Analytics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits and see which pages are popular. It doesn't use cookies, doesn't track you across other sites, and doesn't collect personal information. It gives us totals, such as page views and the general country a visit came from. See >Cloudflare's privacy policy.
Email. If you email us, we'll use your email address only to reply to you.
Saved on your device. The packing-list builder saves your checkmarks, stickers, best Bag Score and trip countdown date in your browser's local storage, so your list is still there when you come back. That information stays on your device. It isn't sent to us or anyone else, and it isn't a cookie. You can erase it anytime with the "Clear my saved progress" button or by clearing your browser's site data. The builder can also save a copy of itself on your phone so it works with a weak signal at the park.
What stays on your device
The packing-list builder, home-page checklist and trip countdown save a little progress in your own browser with localStorage. Nothing is sent to our servers, we don't set cookies for this, and we don't store anything about children. Every key starts with pdp:v1:.
| Key | What it stores |
|---|---|
pdp:v1:list:<listId> |
Which items are ticked on one list. List IDs look like builder:<trip>-<age>-<weather>-<days>, home-park, or guide-01. |
pdp:v1:badges |
Stickers earned (park, beach, cruise, rainy, road, flight) and when. |
pdp:v1:trip |
The trip date you picked in the countdown, used for the "pack by" reminder and the early-bird bonus. |
pdp:v1:best |
Your best Bag Score for each list. |
pdp:v1:finished |
A flag set after you finish a list for the first time, so the Bag Score can appear. |
pdp:v1:quiz |
Your last "what kind of park day" quiz result, on the home page only. |
A "Clear my saved progress" control is in the footer of those pages. It asks you to confirm, then deletes every pdp:v1: key in this browser.
Affiliate links and cookies
This site contains affiliate links, including links to Amazon. When you click an affiliate link, the retailer or affiliate network (such as Amazon, Impact or Awin) may place a cookie or use similar technology in your browser. That lets them know you came from our site, so we can be credited if you buy something. Those companies' own privacy policies govern what they collect. We don't receive your name, address or payment details from them; we see only summary information, such as that a qualifying purchase was made.
If you arrive from Pinterest or use a Pinterest "Save" button on our site, Pinterest may collect information under its own privacy policy.
Children
This site is written for parents and other adults. It isn't directed to children, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Your choices
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. This won't stop you from using the site, but affiliate tracking may not work.
Changes
We'll update this page if anything changes, and update the date at the top.
