Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy Overview
Company/controller: JFC Travel Group Co., doing business as Jack’s Flight Club, a Delaware corporation and Travelzoo subsidiary. For EEA residents, it identifies itself as the data controller.
Last updated: 14 July 2026.
1. Data Collection and Use
Jack’s Flight Club may collect:
- Account and contact information: name, email, country, mobile number, username and password.
- Payment information: billing address and card-related information, generally processed through Stripe, PayPal or Apple.
- Travel and preference information: preferred airports, destinations, travel plans, holiday styles and other interests.
- Usage and technical data: IP address, browser and device details, operating system, login data, timestamps, clickstream, scrolling, clicks, page response times and error information.
- Media metadata: metadata embedded in photos, videos and audio you upload, including potentially location and device information.
- Location data: precise or other geolocation through the Mobile App, where you permit access.
- User-generated content: reviews, comments, posts, feedback, postcards, photos, videos, audio and social-media contributions.
- Promotion information: details submitted for contests or sweepstakes, potentially including additional content or answers.
- Third-party and inferred data: analytics data, payment-provider information, social-media profile information, demographic or purchase-history data from aggregators, and location information from providers.
The stated purposes include providing and administering services, processing payments, personalizing travel deals, analytics, troubleshooting, security, fraud prevention, advertising, communications, promotions, research and compliance with law. The company may combine automatically collected data with information you provide.
Practical risk: The policy permits broad behavioral tracking and personalization. IP addresses, device data, browsing behavior, location and media metadata may reveal sensitive travel patterns or whereabouts.
2. User Rights
Depending on applicable law—particularly GDPR/UK GDPR—you may have the right to:
- Know how your data is used;
- Access and obtain a copy;
- Correct inaccurate data;
- Request deletion where there is no continuing lawful basis;
- Restrict processing;
- Receive portable electronic data;
- Object to processing based on legitimate interests;
- Withdraw consent;
- Opt out of marketing communications; and
- Complain to a data-protection authority.
Requests may require identity verification and should be sent to jack@jacksflightsclub.com. Account termination generally leads to account deactivation and blocked email deliveries within ten business days, but data may remain in archives, backups or records for legal, analytical or legitimate-business purposes.
3. Third-Party Sharing
The company says it does not rent or sell personal information, but shares data broadly with:
- Service providers acting as processors, including email, storage, payment, customer-support and analytics vendors;
- Stripe, PayPal and Apple for payment-related processing;
- Google Analytics, Braze, Microsoft Clarity and similar providers;
- Advertising and social-media platforms, including Facebook, Google, Instagram, Reddit, Snapchat, LinkedIn, TikTok and X;
- Promotion sponsors and partners, according to entry forms and official rules;
- Review providers such as Trustpilot;
- Group companies and affiliates;
- Law enforcement, courts, regulators and other parties for legal, safety, fraud or debt-collection purposes; and
- Buyers or counterparties in a merger, acquisition, reorganization or asset sale.
Even where hashed IDs or “anonymized” data are used, advertising platforms may be able to match them to existing profiles. Third-party websites, widgets and social-login providers have their own policies and are expressly outside Jack’s Flight Club’s responsibility.
Data may be transferred outside the EEA, including to the United States, using contractual safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or Binding Corporate Rules.
4. AI/ML Training
The policy does not state that personal data or user-generated content is used to train artificial-intelligence or machine-learning models. It does permit broad internal uses such as analytics, research, testing, personalization and service improvement. Users should not assume that uploaded content is excluded from future automated analysis unless the company confirms this separately.
5. Key User Obligations and Restrictions
- Users must be at least 18.
- Keep account passwords confidential and do not share them.
- Do not submit personal information about another person unless authorized and able to provide the required consent.
- Do not include personal information in public reviews or content unless you accept that it may become publicly available.
- Review promotion rules and third-party privacy policies before participating.
- Manage marketing, location, cookie and notification settings yourself; disabling cookies or location may reduce functionality.
6. Liability and Disputes
This document is primarily a privacy notice and contains no detailed governing-law, arbitration, court-selection or dispute-resolution clause. It disclaims responsibility for third-party websites, services, widgets and privacy practices.
The company uses industry-standard security and SSL but states that internet transmission and electronic storage are not completely secure and that it cannot guarantee absolute security. It places transmission risk on the user. Any broader liability limits are likely contained in the separate Website General Terms, Mobile App Terms or other referenced agreements.
7. Policy Changes
Updates are posted on the Site and are stated to be effective immediately upon posting. Users are told to check the policy regularly. For material changes, the company may email the primary account address or display a prominent website notice. Continued use after changes indicates acceptance; users who disagree should stop using the Services and submitting personal information.
Terms and Conditions
Key Terms and Risks Overview
> Scope: These Terms incorporate separate App Terms, Privacy and Cookies Policy, and possibly other terms. The Privacy Policy is not included here, so the precise data practices and AI-training position cannot be confirmed from this document alone.
1. Data Collection & Usage
The Terms indicate that Jack’s Flight Club (“JFC”) may hold:
- Your email address, used for registration, service delivery, account notices, payment issues, renewals, and other communications.
- Subscription and payment information, although card payments may be processed by third-party payment providers.
- Account and usage information associated with your Website, Members Lounge, or App access.
- User-generated content, including reviews, comments, links, photos, audio, video, and “postcards” that you submit.
- Potentially device, technical, and cookie data, as governed by the separate Privacy and Cookies Policy.
JFC may use submitted content in its products, marketing, or advertising. You retain copyright ownership, but grant JFC a worldwide, perpetual, non-exclusive licence to publish, display, reproduce, modify, edit, and otherwise use it.
2. User Rights
The Terms refer users to the Privacy and Cookies Policy for GDPR and other privacy rights. Those rights may include access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, and withdrawal of consent, depending on applicable law and the relevant legal basis.
Under these Terms, users can:
- Delete a free Standby account through the Members Lounge.
- Unsubscribe from emails or change alert settings without necessarily deleting the account.
- Cancel future paid renewals through subscription settings or by contacting JFC at least three working days before the Term expires.
- Potentially receive a 14-day refund for a new paid subscription or trial, but only where this was stated and agreed at checkout. Renewals are generally not refundable.
Unsubscribing from emails does not cancel a paid Membership.
3. Third-Party Sharing
The Terms do not describe specific third-party data sharing. The separate Privacy Policy should explain whether data is shared with:
- Payment processors;
- Hosting, analytics, email, advertising, and technology providers;
- Corporate affiliates and subsidiaries;
- Authorities or purchasers in connection with a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or financing.
JFC links to airlines, agents, accommodation providers, and other businesses. Any booking contract is solely between you and that third party. JFC disclaims responsibility for their websites, services, accuracy, and terms.
4. AI/ML Training
The Terms do not state whether personal data or user content is used to train AI models.
They do prohibit automated access, including bots, scrapers, crawlers, and AI tools. Separately, submitted content may be used broadly in JFC’s products, marketing, and advertising. Users should review the Privacy Policy or obtain clarification before submitting personal, confidential, or identifiable material.
Content may not be created using AI tools unless JFC approves it.
5. Key User Obligations and Restrictions
Users must:
- Use the services only as private consumers, not commercially or for resale.
- Maintain a working email address and monitor inboxes for renewal and payment notices.
- Keep devices and software secure, updated, virus-free, and compatible.
- Avoid hacking, unauthorised access, security circumvention, overloading, malicious code, and system disruption.
- Not scrape, crawl, use bots, or use automated tools to access the services.
- Submit only lawful, genuine, relevant, non-offensive content.
- Obtain written permissions for identifiable people, minors, and third-party material included in submissions.
- Avoid infringing copyright, privacy, publicity, trademark, or other rights.
JFC may terminate accounts for breaches and may seek reasonable compensation for resulting costs.
6. Liability, Service Risk, and Disputes
Flight information is for general information and research purposes, not a recommendation or guarantee. Deals may expire, be inaccurate, incomplete, or worse than direct airline offers. Users must verify all pricing, availability, restrictions, and provider terms.
JFC excludes liability for unforeseeable losses and, broadly, for indirect or consequential losses such as lost profits, business, contracts, or anticipated savings. It does not exclude liability where unlawful, including for fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or certain statutory consumer rights.
The services may be suspended for technical, legal, or security reasons. Extended suspensions can trigger price adjustments or pro-rata refunds for paid users.
JFC is not currently a member of an ADR scheme. EU and Norwegian users may be able to use the European Online Dispute Resolution platform. The excerpt does not identify governing law or exclusive courts, so those provisions should be checked in the complete terms.
7. Changes and Termination
JFC may make technical, legal, security, and service changes. It may notify users by email, which counts as written notice. Paid users may object to certain material changes and may have cancellation and pro-rata refund rights.
JFC may discontinue services without notice to free members, but generally promises at least 28 days’ notice to paid members, with a pro-rata refund for the unprovided period. Paid subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled in time.

Key Changes and Risks
1. Paid membership cancellation process changed
- Previous wording: A free Standby member could delete their account, and cancellation/unsubscription instructions referred generally to the Members Lounge.
- New wording: Paid members can cancel billing in the Members Lounge under subscription settings if they paid through Stripe on the Website. In other cases, they must email support@jacksflightclub.com and ask the company to cancel the membership.
Risk/impact:
Customers who paid through another route may no longer be able to cancel directly and must contact support. The provision should clarify when cancellation becomes effective, whether support must acknowledge the request, and whether billing continues while the request is being processed.
2. Account deletion and email unsubscription are separated
The revised terms state that:
- Free Standby members can delete their accounts in the Members Lounge.
- Customers may unsubscribe from marketing emails while retaining their account, using email unsubscribe links or updating alert settings.
- Unsubscribing from emails does not automatically cancel a paid membership or delete the account.
Risk/impact:
This clarification reduces confusion but creates a potential customer-service risk: a customer who believes an email unsubscribe ended their paid subscription could continue to be charged. The cancellation and email-preference controls should be clearly separated in the user interface and communications.
3. Refund provisions reorganized and narrowed
The revised wording provides that:
- Any refund will generally be made through the original payment method.
- Customers must promptly notify the company if that payment method is unavailable, such as where a credit or debit card has expired.
- Customers must provide an appropriate alternative payment method.
- Customers are responsible for problems or costs caused by the unavailability of the original or alternative payment method.
Risk/impact:
The customer bears additional responsibility for payment-method problems and potentially related costs. The terms do not specify how refunds will be handled if the customer cannot provide an alternative method, or whether the company may use another lawful refund route.
4. Contact details and drafting changes
- The update is dated 1 July 2026.
- support@jacksflightclub.com is added or emphasized for cancellation, complaints, questions, and refund issues.
- The diff contains repeated and fragmented text, suggesting possible numbering or formatting errors. The final published version should be checked carefully, particularly sections 7.1–7.5 and the transition into price and payment provisions.
5. AI model training and customer data
No changes in this diff expressly address AI, artificial intelligence, model training, use of customer data, or data retention for training purposes. Any such rights would need to be assessed in the linked Privacy Policy, App Terms, or other referenced documents, which are not included here.

Summary
The provided diff does not include the actual amended legal language. It only states:
> “Added approximately 88 words to the document”
Accordingly, it is not possible to determine what contractual terms changed or whether any new legal risks were introduced.
AI Training and Customer Data
No language addressing the following is included in the diff, so no conclusions can be drawn about changes to AI-model training:
- Whether customer data may be used to train, fine-tune, or improve AI models;
- Whether prompts, inputs, outputs, or uploaded content are retained;
- Whether data is anonymized, aggregated, or de-identified before use;
- Whether customer data may be shared with affiliates, vendors, or third-party model providers;
- Whether the customer can opt out of AI training or data-use practices;
- Whether training use continues after termination of the agreement; or
- Whether the provider claims ownership or license rights in customer data or model outputs.
Risk Assessment
The omission of the actual 88 added words prevents assessment of:
- New permissions to use or disclose customer information;
- Expanded intellectual-property licenses;
- Changes to confidentiality obligations;
- New retention or deletion rights;
- Restrictions on the customer’s ability to control its data; and
- Indemnity, liability, or compliance implications relating to AI systems.
Information Needed
To perform a meaningful comparison, please provide the actual added text and, if applicable, the surrounding unchanged language. The full redline or the relevant clause before and after the amendment would be sufficient.
2026-08-18 · Terms and Conditions
Summary
The provided diff only states that “approximately 88 words” were added. It does not include the actual added language or identify where those words appear.
AI Training and Data-Use Changes
- Cannot be determined from the information provided.
- There is no text showing whether customer data may be:
- Used to train, fine-tune, or improve AI models;
- Shared with model providers or other third parties;
- Used in aggregated, de-identified, or identifiable form;
- Retained for training after termination;
- Excluded from training by default or only upon customer request; or
- Subject to security, confidentiality, deletion, or opt-out protections.
Potential Legal Risks
Because the added language is missing, it is not possible to assess whether the amendment:
- Expands the provider’s rights to use customer content or personal information;
- Creates a broad or perpetual license to customer data;
- Allows disclosure of data to subprocessors or AI vendors;
- Conflicts with confidentiality, privacy, or data-protection obligations;
- Changes ownership or intellectual-property rights;
- Weakens deletion, retention, or return obligations; or
- Imposes additional customer consent or compliance responsibilities.
Information Needed
Please provide the full diff, including the approximately 88 added words and the surrounding provisions. The actual wording is necessary to identify the legal effect, especially any changes concerning AI-model training and use of customer data.

Summary of Important Changes
1. Paid membership cancellation
- New process: Paid members may cancel billing through the Members Lounge subscription settings, but this is expressly limited to members who paid through Stripe on the Website.
- Alternative process: Members may contact support@jacksflightclub.com to request cancellation.
- Risk/ambiguity: The wording does not clearly explain how members who paid through another channel—such as an app store or other payment processor—must cancel. The contract should identify the applicable process for each payment method.
- The revised wording also appears to change the cancellation mechanism from changing “alert settings” to cancelling billing or contacting support. This should reduce the risk of a customer mistakenly believing that turning off alerts ends a paid subscription.
2. Email unsubscribing separated from account deletion and cancellation
The revised clause clearly distinguishes three actions:
1. Cancelling a paid Membership;
2. Deleting a free Standby account; and
3. Unsubscribing from emails while keeping the account.
Customers may unsubscribe using email unsubscribe links or by updating alert settings in the Members Lounge.
The new text expressly states that unsubscribing from emails:
- Does not automatically end a paid Membership contract; and
- Does not delete the customer’s account.
This clarification may protect the company from accidental cancellations, but it creates a customer-facing risk: users may unsubscribe believing they have stopped paid billing. The cancellation warning should be prominent and easy to understand.
3. Refunds and payment-method responsibility
- The revised clause states that refunds will be made using the original payment method.
- If that method is unavailable—for example, an expired credit or debit card—the customer must promptly notify the company and provide an appropriate alternative payment method.
- Customers are made responsible for problems or costs caused by the unavailability of the original method or an alternative method they provide.
Risk: “Problems or costs” is broad and undefined. The clause could be challenged or disputed if it attempts to transfer costs caused by the company’s refund process to the customer. The contract should specify what costs are contemplated and preserve any mandatory consumer refund rights.
4. Contact details and structural changes
- The updated terms add or repeat support@jacksflightclub.com as the contact address.
- The renewal/non-renewal provision appears to replace a full stop with the support email address, suggesting customers must email that address to give notice.
- Several provisions appear duplicated or mechanically rearranged in the supplied diff. Clause numbering and cross-references should be checked before publication.
5. AI-model training and customer data
No changes concerning the use of customer data to train AI models are visible in this diff. There is no new or deleted language authorizing, restricting, or explaining AI training, model development, data retention, anonymisation, or use of customer content. Any AI-related rights would need to be assessed in the separate Privacy Policy, App Terms, or other linked documents.
