Personal Information That We Collect

Personal information is information that relates to an identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is someone that can be identified both directly and indirectly by their name, location data, identification number or by factors specific to the social, cultural, physiological, genetic, mental or economic identity of the natural person. Personal Information does not include any information that has been anonymised so that it can no longer be used to identify a natural person.

When you use our travel services, we do collect some personal information from you and any devices you use. Personal identifying information can include your name, telephone numbers, address, email addresses and financial information such as card details. Provision of any other personal information is voluntary on your account, but it may become necessary in order to use some of our services.

We automatically collect information about your interaction with our website and communications with us. This is the information that we receive via devices you use when you access our website. This information may include a Device ID or unique identifier, a unique device token, a device type or an ID for advertising. We may also receive location information from your mobile device, but most mobile devices now allow you to disable the use of your location settings on internet browsers. We also collect computer and connection information such as your page view statistics, referral URL, browsing history, IP address and web log information.

We use cookies, unique identifiers, web beacons and other similar technologies to collect personal information about pages that you view, links that you clink on and other actions you may take whilst using our website and services.

Personal Information We Collect From Other Sources

We add on the personal information we collect with other information collected from third parties, and implement it to your account information. For example, we collect and use demographic information that is available in credit check information, additional contact information, information from credit bureaus and an applicable jurisdiction, which is allowed by some applicable national laws.

Social Media

We allow you to share pages and information from our website on social media sites, and these social media sites may give us automatic access to personal information they have retained from you, for example, content liked by you or viewed by you, and information about advertisements that you may have been shown or clicked on.

If you allow us access to websites with video content, then you agree that we can share your video viewing information from social media sites for at least 2 years, unless you withdraw any connections or authorisation of the social media sites.

You are in control of the personal information that you allow us to have access to on the privacy settings included on social media sites, and also by the permission you give us when you allow us access to this personal information that is retained by the social media site about you.

By associating your account with an account managed by social media, and by authorising us access to this personal information, you agree that we can collect, use and keep the information we receive from these social media sites in accordance with this privacy policy. We may use other technologies from social media sites, as well as plug ins. For instance if you click on a link via a plug in on social media, you will be establishing a connection with that social media site.

If you provide us with any personal information about someone else, you can only do so with that person’s authorisation. You should inform the individual about how we collect, use, keep and disclose their personal information according to this privacy policy.
