Couch Nomad Privacy Policy

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to Couch Nomad — your shortcut to global culture from the comfort of home. No flights, no jet lag — just smarter ways to unlock shows, experiences, and tools that bring the world closer to you.

We’re not your typical travel blog. Instead of airport chaos and expensive tickets, we focus on practical digital hacks — from streaming guides to VPN tricks — that help you explore global culture, stay secure online, and make the most of your couch adventures.

Your privacy matters to us. We don’t collect your data to sell you flights or hotel rooms — we use it to provide helpful resources, tips, and updates that fit your lifestyle as a modern CouchNomad.
