OddFare

Privacy Policy

OddFare is a flight-deal service operated by Bluebox Consulting Inc. (“Bluebox Consulting”, “we”, “us”), based in Toronto, Ontario. This policy explains what personal information we collect, why, how long we keep it, who we share it with and what you can ask us to do with it. In short: the site has no advertising, and we never sell personal information. An account is optional, and so is Premium, our paid plan. We count visits in aggregate without cookies, and use Google Analytics cookies and PostHog session recordings to understand how the site is used, both of which you can turn off at any time (in Quebec, the European Union, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, only if you agree first). When you pay for Premium, your card is handled by Stripe, never by us.

What We Collect and Why

Reading the site collects nothing that identifies you by name. Unless you turn it off (or, where we ask first, unless you decline), Google Analytics and PostHog record how you use the site under random identifiers, and the Meta Pixel tells Meta which pages you view and whether you create an account (see Visit Statistics). We collect personal information directly only when you create an account, answer our welcome questions, subscribe to Premium or send us a form:

We also use the information above, as needed, to keep the service secure, to enforce our Terms of Service (for example, to stop account sharing, scraping, abuse of free trials or chargebacks), to resolve disputes, and to meet our legal obligations. We do not sell, rent or trade personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.

Visit Statistics

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to see how the site is used: which pages are visited, how often, from which countries, on what kinds of browsers and devices, which site sent the visitor, and how fast pages load. It works without cookies or anything else stored on your device, does not follow you across other websites, and does not build a profile of you. We only see totals, never individual visitors. Cloudflare processes the information under its own privacy policy.

Google Analytics. If you visit from Quebec, the European Union or the rest of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, we ask whether we may use Google Analytics before anything is loaded, and it runs only if you press Accept. Everywhere else it runs when you arrive, as this policy explains, and you can turn it off at any time. When it runs, it records the pages you view, how you arrived at the site, what you click and how long you stay, your approximate location (city or region, worked out from your network address, which Google Analytics does not store), and your browser, device and screen size. It links your visits with a random identifier kept in a cookie. We use these reports only to understand which parts of the site are useful and to improve it. We have turned off Google Analytics’ advertising features and its cross-device “signals” feature, so this information is not used to show you ads and is not linked to any account you hold. Reports are kept for 14 months, then deleted. Google Analytics is provided by Google LLC, which processes the information on our behalf, in the United States and other countries, under Google LLC’s privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy. If you decline or turn it off, Google Analytics is not loaded at all. You can change your choice at any time with Cookie Settings, at the bottom of every page, or block it in every site with the official opt-out browser add-on.

Session recordings (PostHog). Under the same choice as the analytics cookies (asked first in the same places, otherwise on until you turn it off), PostHog records how the site is used: the pages you view, how you arrived, where you click, tap and scroll, your approximate location (country, region and city, which PostHog works out from your network address and then discards), and your browser, device and screen size. This includes a replay of your visit, which we watch to find where the site confuses people or breaks. A replay never shows what you type: every form field is blanked in your browser before anything is sent, and so are your email address, your name and the devices listed on your account page. Payment details are never recorded: they are typed into Stripe’s own secure fields, which PostHog cannot see. Visits are told apart by a random identifier kept in your browser’s storage, not linked to any account you hold. Recordings are kept for 30 days and the other reports for one year, then deleted. PostHog is provided by PostHog, Inc., which processes the information on our behalf in the United States under its privacy policy at posthog.com/privacy. If you decline or turn analytics off, PostHog is not loaded at all, and anything it kept in your browser is removed.

Meta Pixel. Under the same choice as the analytics cookies (asked first in the same places, otherwise on until you turn it off), the Meta Pixel tells Meta Platforms, Inc. which pages of oddfare.com you view and whether you create an account. We use it to see whether our ads on Facebook and Instagram lead people to sign up, and to show those ads to people likely to be interested. It tells your browser apart with a cookie (see Cookies and Browser Storage). Meta may link what it receives to a Facebook or Instagram account you hold and use it under its own terms and privacy policy, at facebook.com/privacy/policy. We never send Meta your name, your email address or anything you type. If you decline or turn analytics off, the Meta Pixel is not loaded at all, and its cookies are removed. You can also limit how Meta uses it for ads in your Facebook and Instagram ad settings.

How Long We Keep It

Service Providers and Data Locations

We use seven service providers. Cloudflare hosts the website and stores your account and what you send through its forms, protects it from attacks, counts visits (Web Analytics) and runs Turnstile, the automatic check on our forms that tells people from programs. Stripe processes Premium payments, free trials, refunds and the page where you manage your card and receipts. Resend sends our emails. Microsoft OneDrive holds our nightly backups. Google LLC provides Google Analytics, for visitors who have not turned it off. PostHog, Inc. provides the session recordings and usage reports described above, for the same visitors. Meta Platforms, Inc. provides the Meta Pixel, for the same visitors. Each processes information only to provide its service to us, under its own privacy terms, except that Meta may also use what the Meta Pixel sends under its own policy. All seven are based in, or process information in, the United States, and may store or process information there or in other countries, where it may be accessible to the authorities of those countries under their laws. Your account and what you send through a form are stored in Cloudflare’s database in North America, and a copy is kept on our own computer in Ontario, Canada.

When We Share Information

We share personal information only with the service providers above, so they can provide their services to us; when the law requires it, for example in answer to a valid court order; when it is needed to protect the rights, property or safety of our users, the public or us, including to prevent fraud; with your consent; or if our business, or part of it, is sold, merged or reorganized, in which case the information would pass to the new owner, who would have to treat it as this policy says.

Cookies and Browser Storage

The only advertising cookies are the Meta Pixel’s, set under your analytics choice. The cookies and stored items the site can use are:

You can turn analytics on or off at any time with the Cookie Settings button at the bottom of every page. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal and do not ask. To decide where to ask first, the site checks the country and province your connection comes from each visit; this is not stored. You can also clear or block cookies and stored items in your browser’s settings; the site works fully without analytics cookies.

Links to Other Sites

Links to Google Flights, to airlines and to the pages where coupons were found take you to other websites, where their privacy policies apply, not ours. We receive no commission or referral payment from any link on this site.

How We Protect It

The site is served only over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Payment details go straight from your browser to Stripe, which is certified to the payment card industry’s security standard (PCI DSS). Account and form records can be reached only by us, through a login or a private key that only we hold, and our backups are kept in a private account. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, but we limit what we collect and who can reach it, and we will tell you, and the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, as the law requires if a breach creates a real risk of significant harm to you.

Age

OddFare is not directed at children. You must be at least 16 to create an account, receive deal emails or send us a message, and at least the age of majority where you live (18 or 19 in Canada) to start a free trial or buy Premium. If you believe a child has given us personal information, write to us and we will delete it.

Your Rights

From your account page you can see and change your name and preferences, download everything your account holds as a file, and delete your account at any time. You can also ask to see the personal information we hold about you, to correct it, or to delete it, and you can withdraw your consent to our emails, or turn off analytics cookies, at any time. Some information we must keep even if you ask us to delete it, such as payment records the tax laws require, and we will tell you if that applies. We answer within 30 days. If you are not satisfied with our answer, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada; residents of Quebec may also contact the Commission d’accès à l’information, and residents of the EU or UK their local data protection authority.

Person Responsible for Privacy

Our Privacy Officer is responsible for how we handle personal information and for answering requests about it:
Privacy Officer, Bluebox Consulting Inc.
150 King St W, Toronto, ON M5H 1J9, Canada

Changes

If we change what we collect or how we use it, we will update this page and the date at the top. If a change materially affects how we use information you have already given us, we will tell you by email or on the site before it takes effect, and where the law requires it we will ask for your consent.

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and Bluebox Consulting Inc. (“Bluebox Consulting”, “OddFare”, “we”, “us”), a Canadian corporation located at 150 King St W, Toronto, Ontario M5H 1J9, which owns and operates OddFare: the website at oddfare.com, its emails, OddFare Premium and any related service (together, the “Service”). By creating an account, starting a free trial, subscribing to Premium or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. Please read the sections on Billing and Free Trials for Premium, on Our Right to Suspend or End Access, and on Limitation of Liability with particular care: they affect your rights.

1. Who May Use OddFare

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account, and at least the age of majority where you live (18 or 19 in Canada) to start a free trial or buy Premium. You may use the Service only for your own personal, non-commercial use, and only if you can form a binding contract with us and are not barred from using it under any law. Each person may hold one account. You may not use the Service if we have previously closed your account, unless we agree in writing.

2. What OddFare Is and Isn’t

OddFare is an information service: we look for flight fares that appear to be well below what those trips usually cost and show them to you. We are not a travel agency or travel wholesaler, we are not registered as one, and we do not sell tickets, hold seats, take bookings, handle payments for travel or act for any airline, travel agency or booking site. Because we do not sell travel, purchases you make from airlines or booking sites are not covered by any travel compensation fund through us. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any airline or booking site, nor affiliated with Google, and we receive no commission or referral fee from any link. Unless a page says otherwise, the fares we show are for one adult, round trip, in economy, in Canadian dollars, and include the taxes and fees shown at the time we checked; the booking site shows the final price and its breakdown before you pay.

3. Prices and Availability Are Not Guaranteed

Every fare on OddFare is a price we observed at a point in time, and fares change constantly. We do not promise that any fare can still be booked, that it can be booked at the price shown, that a “deal” is the cheapest fare available, or that our “usual price” figures and savings are accurate: they are estimates (see How We Price Deals). Airlines may withdraw fares at any time, including fares published in error (“mistake fares”), and may cancel or change bookings made on them; that is between you and the airline. Always confirm the price, the dates, the fare rules, baggage allowances and the airline’s conditions of carriage on the booking site before you pay.

4. Your Account

Give us accurate information and keep it up to date. You are responsible for everything done through your account, so keep your email account secure: anyone who can read your email can log in to your OddFare account. Tell us at once if you think someone else has used your account. You may not share your account, sell or transfer it, or let anyone else use it, and you may not open more than one account, including to get another free trial. We may ask you to confirm who you are or that an account is yours.

5. Your Account and Premium

Creating an account is free. The deals and fares are part of OddFare Premium, a paid subscription. What Premium includes is shown when you sign up and in your account under Premium, and may change over time. At the date above, it includes the deals and fares from every airport we cover, switching airports at any time, saved deals, the airline coupon and promo codes on our Coupons page, and early access to new features while we test them (“beta features”). Without Premium, your account keeps our travel guides, our deal emails if you chose them, and its settings, and you can see how many deals there are but not the deals themselves. We may add, change or remove features of Premium, and add or remove airports and destinations, at any time. If we remove a feature of Premium that is a main reason to buy it, we will tell you in advance; if you have paid ahead, you may then cancel and we will refund the unused part of the period you paid for.

Early members. If you created your account before 25 October 2026, you have Premium free of charge until 25 January 2027, without adding a payment method. To keep Premium after that date, you must subscribe; no free trial is added to that free period. If you subscribe before that date, your first payment is taken when it ends. At our discretion, we may also give Premium free of charge to any account, for a time or for good.

6. Your Home Airport

When you sign up you choose a home airport: the deals page opens on its deals. You may change it at any time in your account, and with Premium you may see the deals from any airport we cover.

7. Billing and Free Trials for Premium

Price. The price of Premium, and whether it is billed monthly or yearly, is shown before you subscribe. Prices are in Canadian dollars. If we are required to charge sales tax, such as GST or HST, it will be added and shown before you pay.

Automatic renewal. Premium is a subscription that renews automatically at the end of each billing period, for another period of the same length, at the price then in effect, until you cancel. By subscribing, you authorize us, through our payment processor Stripe, to charge your payment method at the start of each billing period without asking you again. Stripe sends you a receipt for every payment.

Free trial. If you are eligible, your first subscription begins with a free trial of one month, or the length shown when you sign up. You must add a payment method to start it, and nothing is charged during the trial. When the trial ends, your subscription becomes paid automatically and your payment method is charged, unless you cancel before the trial ends. Free trials are for new subscribers only: one per person, household and payment method. We may refuse or end a free trial if we believe it is being misused (for example, by opening more than one account), and we may change or withdraw free trial offers at any time; that does not affect a trial already started.

Payments. Payments are processed by Stripe, under Stripe’s own terms, and we never receive your full card number. You must keep a valid payment method on file while you have Premium. If a payment fails, Stripe may try again over the following days; if it still fails, we may suspend or end your Premium, and you remain responsible for any amount that was due.

Price changes. We may change the price of Premium. We will tell you by email at least 30 days before a new price applies to you, and it will apply only from your next renewal after that. If you don’t want to pay the new price, cancel before that renewal.

Cancelling. You may cancel at any time in your account, under Premium. When you cancel, you won’t be charged again, and Premium continues until the end of the period you have paid for. If you cancel during a free trial, the trial and Premium end at once, and nothing is charged. After that, your account stays open without Premium, and you can start Premium again at any time, without another free trial. Deleting your account also cancels Premium.

Refunds. If you are not happy with Premium, write to us within 30 days of your first payment, or within 30 days of a yearly renewal payment, and we will refund that payment in full. Apart from that, and apart from the refunds these Terms promise elsewhere or the law requires, payments are not refundable, including for a part of a billing period, for time you didn’t use Premium, or for an account we close because of a breach of these Terms. If you delete your account while a paid period is running, Premium ends at once; we may, at our discretion and if you ask, refund the unused part of that period pro rata, but we are not obliged to. Refunds go back to the payment method you paid with.

Payment disputes. If you think a charge is wrong, please contact us first: we will look into it and put right any mistake. If you dispute a valid charge with your bank or card issuer instead (a “chargeback”), we may suspend your account until it is resolved and may provide the dispute with evidence of your subscription and its use.

Nothing in these Terms takes away any right to cancel, or any other right, that consumer protection law gives you where you live.

8. Coupons and Promo Codes

The coupon and promo codes on our Coupons page are a Premium feature. They are created and offered by airlines and other companies, not by us, and each is governed by its issuer’s own terms, which decide who may use it, on what and until when. Codes may be limited in number, may run out, expire or be withdrawn without notice, and may not work for every booking; we do not guarantee that any code is valid or will be accepted. A code we hand out from a limited pool is for your own use, one per person, unless its issuer says otherwise. You may not publish, share outside your own household, sell or collect codes in bulk. We may remove any code at any time.

9. Beta Features

Premium members may get early access to features we are still testing. Beta features may be incomplete, may contain errors, may be changed or withdrawn at any time without notice, and may never become generally available. They are provided as they are, without any promise about how well they work. Using them is optional, and we may use your feedback on them to improve the Service.

10. Support

Premium members may send us support requests through our contact form, and we answer them on a best-effort basis. We do not promise a particular response time or outcome. Support covers OddFare itself; we cannot make, change or cancel bookings with airlines or booking sites, or act for you in a complaint or claim against them.

11. Emails and Electronic Communications

We send the emails needed to run your account and Premium (such as login codes, notices about your plan, your trial and your payments, and important changes to the Service or these Terms) whenever they are needed; they are part of the Service and you cannot turn them off while you have an account. Deal emails are sent only if you choose to receive them, and you can stop them at any time from the link in any email or in your account. You agree that we may give you agreements, notices and other communications electronically, by email or on the site, and that they satisfy any requirement that they be in writing.

12. Acceptable Use

You are welcome to share a link to an individual deal with friends and family. Otherwise, you may not, and may not help anyone else to:

13. Our Right to Suspend or End Access

We may suspend, restrict or end your account, your Premium subscription or your access to all or part of the Service, at any time and at our sole discretion, with or without notice, for any reason or for no reason, including if we believe you have broken these Terms, misused the Service, abused a free trial, refunds or payment disputes, given us false information, or exposed us or others to risk or legal liability. When your access ends, your right to use the Service ends immediately, and we may delete your account and its contents as our Privacy Policy describes. If we end your Premium because you broke these Terms or misused the Service, you are not entitled to any refund. If we end it for any other reason, we will refund the unused part of the period you paid for. You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time; deleting it ends any Premium subscription at once (see Refunds above).

14. Changing or Shutting Down the Service

We may change, suspend or discontinue the Service, or any part of it, at any time, temporarily or permanently, including for maintenance, and with or without notice. We may decide to shut down OddFare, or to stop offering Premium, at any time. If we permanently stop offering Premium or shut down the Service, we will try to tell you in advance, we will stop billing you, and we will refund the unused part of any period you paid for. That refund is our only obligation to you in that case.

15. Availability and Other Services

The Service may be slow, unavailable, out of date or wrong at any time, including because of the third parties it depends on, such as our hosting, email and payment providers and the sources of the fares we check. We are not responsible for their services, failures or conduct. Links on the Service open third-party websites, such as Google Flights, airlines, booking sites and the pages where coupons were found. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, prices, policies or conduct; their own terms apply once you leave ours.

16. Intellectual Property

The Service and everything in it, including its design, text, graphics, software, the OddFare name and logo, and our selection, arrangement and compilation of fares, deals and coupons, belong to Bluebox Consulting Inc. or to those who license them to us, and are protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial use, in line with these Terms. We keep all other rights. Destination photographs belong to their authors and are used under their licences (see our Photo Credits). Airline and other company names and marks belong to their owners and are used only to identify them; their use does not mean they endorse us.

17. Feedback and What You Send Us

If you send us ideas, suggestions or feedback, we may use them freely, without paying you or owing you anything, and you give us a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free licence to do so. You are responsible for what you send us, and you confirm that you have the right to send it. Please don’t send us sensitive personal information, such as payment card numbers or passport details, through our forms or by email.

18. Not Advice

Nothing on the Service is travel, financial, legal, immigration, health or safety advice. Decisions to book, and their consequences, are yours alone. Check entry, visa, health and safety requirements with official sources before you travel. We are not responsible for changes to fares, schedules or entry requirements, for anything an airline or booking site does, or for anything that happens on a trip.

19. Disclaimers

To the fullest extent the law allows, the Service, including Premium, beta features, the deals, the fares and the coupons, is provided “as is” and “as available”, with all faults and without any warranty, representation or condition of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including any implied warranty or condition of merchantability, quality, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, availability or non-infringement. We do not promise that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free or free of harmful components, or that any information on it is complete, correct or current. If the law where you live does not allow some of these exclusions, they apply to you only as far as that law allows.

20. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Bluebox Consulting Inc. and its directors, officers, employees, contractors and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, savings, data, goodwill or opportunity, or for the cost of any flight, booking, travel, accommodation or substitute service, arising out of or in connection with the Service or these Terms, including a fare that could not be booked or cost more than shown, a booking that was cancelled or changed, a coupon that did not work, a missed deal, or a trip that went wrong, however caused and on any theory of liability, even if we were told such damages were possible. To the fullest extent the law allows, our total liability for all claims arising out of or in connection with the Service or these Terms is limited to the greater of the amounts you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the event that gave rise to the claim, and fifty Canadian dollars (CAD $50). Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the law that applies to you.

21. Indemnity

To the extent the law allows, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Bluebox Consulting Inc. and its directors, officers, employees, contractors and agents from any claim, loss, liability, cost or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Service, or your violation of any law or of anyone else’s rights.

22. Events Beyond Our Control

We are not responsible for any delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond our reasonable control, such as outages or failures of the internet, hosting, email or payment providers, cyberattacks, natural disasters, epidemics, war, government action or labour disputes.

23. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there, without regard to conflict of laws rules. If you have a concern, please contact us first: most problems can be solved quickly that way, and we ask that you give us 30 days to try before starting any proceeding. Any dispute that is not resolved belongs to the courts located in Toronto, Ontario, and you and we agree to their jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, nothing in this section takes away any right you have under the consumer protection law of the province or country where you live, including any right to bring a claim in your local courts.

24. Changes to These Terms

We may change these Terms from time to time. We will post the new Terms on this page with a new date at the top. If a change is material, we will tell you in advance by email or on the Service and, where the law requires it, we will give you at least 30 days’ notice and the option to cancel before it takes effect; if you cancel Premium for that reason, we will refund the unused part of any period you paid for. We may ask you to agree to the new Terms to keep using your account. If you keep using the Service after the new Terms take effect, you accept them. If you don’t agree to them, stop using the Service and cancel any Premium subscription.

25. General

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any terms shown to you when you buy Premium, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service, and replace any earlier agreement. If any part of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, it will be enforced as far as possible and the rest will remain in effect. If we don’t enforce a right or a provision, that is not a waiver of it. We may assign or transfer these Terms, and our rights and obligations under them, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets; you may not assign or transfer them without our written consent. Sections that by their nature should survive the end of these Terms or of your account, including those on payments owed, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity and disputes, will survive. Headings are for convenience only, and “including” means “including without limitation”. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, employment or agency relationship between you and us. These Terms are written in English. The parties have required that these Terms and all related documents be drawn up in English. Les parties ont exigé que les présentes conditions et tous les documents qui s’y rattachent soient rédigés en anglais.

Bluebox Consulting Inc. (OddFare)
150 King St W, Toronto, ON M5H 1J9, Canada
consultingbluebox@gmail.com

Every fare on OddFare is compared with the usual price of the same trip. This section explains where those numbers come from and what they can and cannot tell you.

What “Usual” Means

For each trip we look at up to four estimates of its usual price: the typical price shown for those exact dates when we check them, the median price of those exact dates over the past 60 days, the route’s own price history, and our own record of what the route costs at that time of year. We use the lowest of the estimates we have, so a saving is never worked out against an inflated price. The percentage below usual and the “Usually about” figure are based on it.

What Counts as a Deal

A fare is listed as a deal when it is at least 20% below its usual price. “Great Deal” and “Possible Mistake Fare” mark larger drops. A fare that was clearly cheaper at some point in the past 60 days is marked one step lower (a “Great Deal” is shown as a “Deal”). A fare priced under the low end of the range that trip usually costs is also listed, marked “Below usual” with that range, even if it hasn’t recently dropped. We don’t list fares far above what a trip that distance normally costs, or trips that leave in under two days.

These Are Estimates

The usual price and the saving are our best estimates from the data we have, not guarantees. Fares change many times a day, a fare may have changed since we checked it, and our records can be incomplete or wrong. The price on the airline’s or booking site’s own page, before you pay, is the real one. Always check it there before you book.

How We Monitor Fares

We monitor fares to every destination and re-check listed deals regularly, and we take down any deal we can’t confirm for three days. Each deal shows the dates it was found for, and other dates on the same route may cost more or less.

We want everyone to be able to use OddFare. The site aims to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA: it works with a keyboard alone, with screen readers and at large text sizes, respects your device’s reduced-motion and dark-mode settings, and keeps text contrast at or above the guideline’s ratios in both themes. We check it with automated checks and by hand on phones and computers.

Known Limitations

Destination photographs are decorative and are not described in detail. The spam check on our forms (Cloudflare Turnstile) runs without a puzzle for almost everyone; if it ever blocks you, write to us and we will take your request by email instead.

Feedback and Other Formats

If something on the site is hard to use, or you need any page in another format, tell us and we will fix it or send you the information another way. We reply within five business days. Use our contact form or write to consultingbluebox@gmail.com.
