Shortening URLS is a technique used to make URL links shorter, and is particularly used in social media. Users should take caution before clicking on shortened URL links and verify their authenticity before proceeding.

Takedown Requests

Conversant Traveller sometimes publishes images from third-party websites. Use of these images is considered fair use under copyright laws and is attributed to the owner.

Newsletters

Website users are able to subscribe to our newsletter emails, which may be used for advertising purposes. These emails may contain tracking pixels to enable analysis of online marketing campaigns.
