Privacy Policy – Luxe in the D

Effective Date: April 2, 2025

At Luxe in the D, we value your trust. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information while you enjoy our services — including our website, directories, curated features, and digital tools (collectively, the “Platform”).

Who we are

Luxe in the D is your insider’s guide to Metro Detroit’s finest experiences. We spotlight handpicked places to eat, stay, shop, and celebrate — from elevated brunches and rooftop lounges to romantic date night décor and boutique lodging. Our platform connects locals and visitors with the luxury side of Detroit, with listings, recommendations, and editorial content that celebrate the city’s creativity and culture. We are not directly affiliated with the businesses we feature, and we do not guarantee the services, products, or experiences provided by them. Use of any business listed is at your own discretion.
