Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 November 2026

1. Who is responsible

The controller is the operator of Sixth Freedom named in the imprint, 13 Stavrou Stylianidi, 3100 Limassol, Cyprus. Data protection contact: dpo@sixthfreedom.com

2. This website

sixthfreedom.com has no user accounts. Apart from the Travelpayouts script described in section 3, we set no analytics or advertising cookies. If you choose the dark or light theme, that choice is stored only in your own browser. When you visit, our hosting provider (Namecheap) records technical logs: IP address, browser, pages requested and time. We use them to run and protect the site, based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). They are kept for up to six months.

Our own statistics. On this site and on the flight search we count visits with our own simple statistics. They set no cookies and store nothing in your browser. They record the pages you open, how long a page stays in the foreground, the referring website, your screen size, the departure and destination airports of a flight search (not your dates or passengers), and clicks on Buy buttons and other outgoing links. To count several pages as one visit, our server groups them by a keyed hash of your IP address, your browser's user-agent string and our domain name. The key changes every day, so visits cannot be linked across days, and neither your IP address nor your user-agent string is stored. We also derive a two-letter country code from your IP address for aggregate statistics, and keep a short-lived rate-limiting record based on a hashed IP address. This data stays on our server and is not shared with third parties. We keep it for 14 months and then delete it. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in understanding how the site is used (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Content from other services. Some pages load photos, videos or partner banners from other companies: stock photos from Unsplash, images from airlines and Wikimedia, partner banners, and YouTube videos through youtube-nocookie.com. When that content loads, your browser connects to those companies and they receive your IP address and browser details. They may set their own cookies, and each is an independent controller with its own privacy policy. Our legal basis is our legitimate interest in illustrating our pages (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

3. Travelpayouts: flight search and partner links

The flight search at flights.sixthfreedom.com is operated by Travelpayouts. It sets its own cookies when the page loads, receives your search details and IP address, may load further partner scripts, and loads fonts from Google. When you choose a fare you move to an airline or travel agency. These companies are independent controllers with their own privacy policies.

If you agree in the banner, every page of sixthfreedom.com also loads a script from Travelpayouts (emrldtp.cc). Without your consent it is not loaded. It turns suitable links into partner links, may show travel offers, and measures visits and clicks so that bookings made through our links can be credited to us. For this, Travelpayouts receives your IP address, browser details and the address of the page you are on, sets its own cookies (including a visitor identifier), stores data in your browser, and loads fonts from Google. Travelpayouts is an independent controller with its own privacy policy. We use this script to finance the site through partner commissions. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw it at any time with “Cookie settings” at the bottom of every page; we then stop loading the script and delete its cookies on sixthfreedom.com. Your choice is stored only in your own browser.

4. Email

If you email us, we use your message only to answer you and keep it only as long as that requires.

5. Your rights

You can ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your data, and you can object to its use. Write to dpo@sixthfreedom.com. You can also complain to the Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection in Cyprus.

6. Changes

We update this policy when the site changes. The date above shows the latest version.
