Privacy policy

Effective Date: June 21, 2025

At Vikings Don't Cry, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any information you share with us - whether you're visiting the forge, renting the farm, or just browsing our site.

1. Information We Collect

Currently, we collect minimum personal information directly. You may provide:

- Your name, email, or phone number when submitting a contact form or farm inquiry

- General information when booking private events outside Airbnb

Most customer data for forge bookings is handled directly through Airbnb, and photo session data is handled through Once Upon a Photo Studios, which has its own privacy policies.

2. How We Use Your Information

If you contact us directly, we may use your info to:

- Respond to your questions or booking inquiries

- Send important updates related to your event or experience

- Occasionally follow up on your experience (with your consent)

We do not sell, rent, or trade your information with any third parties.

3. Cookies & Tracking (Future Use)

At this time, we do not use tracking cookies or advertising pixels. However, in the future, we may implement tools like the Meta (Facebook) Pixel, Google Analytics, or similar technologies to improve our marketing and website performance.

When that happens, we will update this policy to reflect what's being used and how to manage your preferences.

4. Third-Party Services

Airbnb handles booking, payment, and customer info for most forge experiences.

Once Upon a Photo Studios manages contact info and bookings for photo sessions hosted on the farm.

These third-party services may collect and store your data according to their own policies. We recommend reviewing their privacy terms if booking through them.

5. Your Rights

You have the right to request what personal data (if any) we have on file. And you have the right to ask us to correct or delete that data.

To make a request, email us at: [email protected]

6. Contact Us

Have questions about your privacy or how your data is handled?

Reach out any time at: [email protected]

NOTE: This policy will be updated if our data collection or marketing practices change. By using our site, you agree to the terms of this policy.

At Vikings Don't Cry, we create unforgettable, hands-on experiences. Whether you're forging a blade or posing like royalty on a throne of swords, we're here to make it happen.
