  • The country to receive the transfer is recognised as offering adequate data protection by the European Commission
  • It is transferred to a US company that is signed up to the Privacy Shield

We will not provide any information to any person not responsible for any part of your travel arrangements, unless there is a legal obligation involved.

  • When we have your consent (we rely on this for certain types of data processing, and you can withdraw that consent at any time by contacting [email protected])
  • When we have a contract with you (relating to your booking; we typically retain relevant data from you for up to seven years from the date the contract completes – e.g. the last day of your holiday)
  • Legal obligations (i.e. we are legally obliged by the government to make financial records available for tax audit purposes. In cases like this, we are obliged to retain data for up to seven years from the date of transaction)
  • Legitimate interests (we use data to manage operations and business processes more effectively. We also use it to carry out appropriate marketing of our services, although our legitimate interests will never override your right to privacy)
