Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 19, 2026. This Privacy Policy explains how RentCar Trip (“we”, “us”, “our”), which operates the website rentcar-trip.com, collects, uses, and shares information when you visit our site. RentCar Trip is an independent information site about rental car costs; we do not rent cars or process reservations.

Information We Collect

We collect limited information automatically when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device information, referring pages, and pages you view, through server logs, cookies, and similar technologies. If you contact us, we receive the information you provide (such as your name, email address, and message). We do not require you to create an account or make a purchase to read our guides.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our partners use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site, understand how it is used, and serve advertising. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings; disabling some cookies may affect how the site functions.

Advertising and Google AdSense

We use third-party advertising companies, including Google, to serve ads when you visit our website. These vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to this website and other websites on the internet.

  • Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
  • Third-party vendors and ad networks may also use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
  • You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
  • You may opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices and optout.networkadvertising.org.

For more information on how Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps, see Google’s Privacy & Terms.

Analytics

We may use analytics tools to understand aggregate traffic and improve our content. These tools set their own cookies and process usage data according to their own privacy policies.

Your Choices

In addition to the advertising opt-outs above, you can adjust cookie settings in your browser and use browser features such as “Do Not Track”. Opting out of personalized ads does not remove all ads; it means the ads you see may be less relevant to you.

Your Rights in the EEA and UK (GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data, and to object to processing and request data portability. Where we serve personalized ads to users in these regions, we rely on a Google-certified consent management platform to request consent as required by the GDPR and ePrivacy rules; without valid consent, only non-personalized ads are shown. To exercise your rights, contact us using the details below.

Your Rights in California (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request deletion, and to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information as those terms are defined under California law. We do not sell your personal information for money; the use of advertising cookies may be considered “sharing” for cross-context behavioral advertising, which you can opt out of using the advertising controls above. Contact us to exercise these rights.

Children’s Privacy

RentCar Trip is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Data Retention and Security

We retain information only as long as needed for the purposes described here or as required by law, and we use reasonable measures to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
