WHY DO WE COLLECT YOUR INFORMATION?

We collect, hold and handle your personal data for a variety of business purposes, including to:

• Provide you with our and our partners’ travel products and services, administer your reservations and tours, manage your booking account settings and generally administer and manage our customer relationship with you.
• If you are a business partner, supplier or agent, to manage our business relationship with you.
• Contact you and process your communications with us, for example, to respond to your queries or complaints, or if we need to tell you something important, or invite you to complete a booking (for example, if you started but did not complete an online tour reservation with us);
• Generally, improve our products and services and your user experience with us;
• Comply with our legal obligations and assist government and law enforcement agencies or regulators; and
• Carry out our marketing activities, including identifying and telling you about other travel-related products or services that we think may be of interest to you, processing feedback forms and other similar communications.

Under applicable privacy and data protection laws (including the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679) (“GDPR”) and the Kenyan Data Protection Act (No. 24 of 2019)), for us to collect, hold, use, share and process your personal data we must have a purpose and legal basis to do so. The legal basis may differ depending on your interaction with us and what data we collect and process, which will fall under:

• Necessary for the performance of a contract – When you make an enquiry or book a trip with us or any of our partners, we rely on the legal basis that the processing of your personal data is necessary for the performance of your contract with us i.e. completing a travel reservation as part of your planned itinerary and administering your booking.
• Legitimate Interest – Our legitimate interest means your information has a commercial business purpose and is necessary in order to provide a product or service to you and does not override your rights and freedoms as an individual. For example, as a travel customer, we collect your email address for the purpose of communicating with you when necessary, about the product or service you’re requesting or booking, and for us to provide you with any relevant information. If you are a business partner, we may process your contact information in order to manage our relationship with you. We also rely on our legitimate interests to improve our products and services, and to prevent fraudulent activity on our online platforms and accounts. When using personal data to serve our or a third party’s legitimate interest, we will always balance your rights and interests in the protection of your personal data against our rights and interests or those of the third party, including by using your data in a way which is proportionate and respects your privacy.
• Legal Obligations – in certain circumstances we will need to use your data to comply with our legal obligations, for example, to comply with local laws in the country you are visiting.
• Vital Interest – we rely on the legal basis of vital interest in certain limited circumstances where it is essential to you and your health that we process your personal data; for example, to contact medical providers/insurance providers in the case of any medical emergency.
• Consent – where required by applicable laws, we will obtain your prior consent prior to processing your personal data, including before sending you electronic marketing materials or as otherwise required by law.

You can revoke your consent or object to our marketing in certain circumstances; please see the ‘Your Rights’ section for further information.

Providing your personal data to us is voluntary. However, we may not be able to fulfil your reservation and your experience may be affected if certain personal data is not provided. We may only be able to provide you with some products and services if we can only collect some personal data. For example, we can’t process your travel booking if we don’t collect your name and contact details.

 MAKING AN ENQUIRY OR BOOKING A TRIP:

We use your personal data to arrange and provide you with the products and services you have requested and booked. This includes booking any flights, transportation, accommodation and activities. The following will provide more insight into these purposes:

• Your personal data will be used by our group leaders to identify you and ensure your safety during the trip.
• Depending on your destination and the services being booked for you, we may be required by the supplier to provide certain types of personal information in order to secure the booking. We may also be legally required by local laws and governments to provide travel documentation such as passport details or a passport scan.
• Your contact details will be collected in order to manage our relationship with you, including updates about your booking, providing relevant information and any applicable tickets, handling feedback and complaints, and contacting you in the event of an emergency.
• Providing relevant information, which may include sensitive information, to insurance providers, their agents and medical staff in circumstances where we/they need to act on your behalf or in the interest of passengers or in an emergency.
• Where permitted by law, where it is in your vital interest or you provide your consent to do so, your medical/health information may be shared to ensure that we understand any specific needs you may have, before and during your trip. Any pre-existing medical conditions could impact your enjoyment of the trip, and by informing us of any conditions, issues or limitations, we can ensure that we are better prepared to assist if required.

Other than where it is in your vital interests or required by relevant laws, medical/health information can only be used by us with your consent. This is because medical/health information is considered sensitive and by consenting, you are showing us that you understand and agree to us processing this information. Providing medical/health information and consenting to its use by us is optional, however, it is highly recommended that this information be provided (including if requested) for your safety and well-being.

HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA

We will only process your data, where:

• You have given your consent to such processing (and may withdraw such consent at any time).
• The processing is necessary to provide our services to you.
• The processing is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations; and/or
• The processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or those of any third-party recipients that receive your personal data.

When you contact us in relation to a travel booking or query, we collect your personal data generally to provide you with travel advice and/or to assist you with booking travel and/or travel-related products and services. However, the purpose for collection may differ depending on the particular circumstances as disclosed in this Policy (for example, collection of your personal data for the purpose of your participation in a competition, provision of feedback, etc.).

When you book or otherwise arrange travel-related products and services through us, we usually act as an agent for the relevant travel service providers (e.g. for a hotel). In this case, we process your personal data as necessary so as to provide the services you requested from us. This usually includes collecting personal data about you both for our internal purposes as described in this Policy and for the travel service provider for whom we act as an agent (e.g. to provide you with the booked services). For example, if you book pre-accommodation through us, then we use your personal data to enable your accommodation to be booked and disclose it to the hotel solely for this purpose.

We may therefore share your information with our travel services providers such as hotels, airlines, car rental, or other providers, who fulfil your travel bookings. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party travel service providers whose products you purchase through us. We will provide you with copies of all relevant travel service provider terms, conditions and privacy policies on request.

If you have any concerns regarding the transfer of your personal data to a travel service provider, or you wish to contact us for further information, please refer to the “Contact Information” section below.

The purposes for which we collect personal information further include:

• Providing you with services and tools you choose to use (for example, saving travel preferences on our websites to a wish list or saving personal information to allow for pre-population of online forms).

• Developing and improving our products and services and those of our related entities.

• Servicing our relationship with you by, among other things, creating and maintaining a customer profile to enable our brands to service you better or presenting options on our website that we think may interest you based on your browsing and preferences.

• Involving you in market research, gauging customer satisfaction and seeking feedback regarding our relationship with you and/or the service we have provided.

• To facilitate your participation in loyalty programs and online competitions.

• For internal research and analysis in relation to our business and services, including but not limited to trends and preferences in sales and travel destinations and use of our websites.

• Internal accounting and administration.

• Identification of fraud or error.

• Regulatory reporting and compliance; and

• Compliance with our legal obligations and any applicable customs/immigration requirements relating to your travel.

Where permitted by local data protection laws, we may use your personal information to send you targeted marketing material relating to our products and services (and those of third parties) that we think may interest you, unless you have requested not to receive such information. These may include but are not limited to, mail shots, electronic marketing and notifications as described below. We will only use your personal information to send electronic marketing materials to you (including e-newsletters, email, and SMS) if you have opted-in to receive them.

Should you no longer wish to receive promotional/marketing material from us, participate in market research or receive other types of communication from us, please refer to the “Contact Information” section below. You can unsubscribe from receiving electronic marketing materials by following the unsubscribe prompt in any email or other form of electronic marketing you receive from us. Please also see the “Your rights” section of this Policy to learn about your ability, at any time, to opt-out or limit the use of your browsing behaviour for online behavioural advertising purposes.

We are also integrated with third-party service providers and payment gateways to facilitate payments between you and us and our partners and tour operators and agents, as applicable. These service providers share payment information so we can administer and handle your travel services reservation or tour. All of our third-party payment providers are required to be PCI DSS compliant and process all payments on our behalf.       

In the majority of cases, to make a payment via credit card for your tour/travel services, you will use the secure online booking engine on the relevant website or platform that you are using, or you will call your booking agent directly. In some limited cases, you may provide us with your credit card or bank details over the phone; for example, if we need to provide you with a refund, your bank details may be collected and recorded by us for the purposes of providing the refund only.

We ask that you do not email or send in writing your payment card details to us or any of our partners at any time.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party vendors and providers, including payment providers, so you should review any privacy policy of a third-party vendor or provider to satisfy yourself as to how they protect and handle your personal data.

COMMUNICATIONS:

We use your data to communicate with you and to personalize these communications. For example, we may contact you by phone or email or by other means of communication to let you know about available updates, invite you to participate in a survey or event or to inform you that you need to take certain actions in order to keep your account updated. In addition, you can subscribe to our contact list to receive our newsletters and choose whether you want to, and how to, receive messages and promotional material. In the event that we send you any direct marketing materials, we will always include an opt-out option should you wish to not receive any such communications from us.

Similarly, if your trip is operated by an unaffiliated tour company, your personal data will be provided to that company for them to confirm your trip and provide the relevant services. We also share your personal data with any travel providers or third-party local operators for the purpose of improving services and experiences, and to investigate complaints and/or disputes, where necessary.

You should familiarize yourself with the privacy policies of all travel providers and tour operators you select to provide a trip or travel-related services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party travel providers and tour operators with whom you may choose to book travel products and services.

Sharing within the Our Group:

As we are a part of a large group, your information may be shared within our group of organizations and any related entities worldwide, including destination management companies forming part of our group. Where permitted, we may share your personal information with our charitable organizations for the purpose of promoting charitable causes.

For example, we share your data with banks and other institutions, which process payment transactions or provide other financial services, when you provide us with these, for the payment of a transaction and/or a contractual obligation and/or a service and/or a product, and for fraud prevention and to mitigate any credit risk.

We may share your information with relevant regulators, which may include privacy regulators and supervisory authorities in other jurisdictions, and with courts and law enforcement to comply with all applicable laws, regulations and rules, and requests of law enforcement (e.g. the police), regulatory and other governmental agencies

We also share personal information with insurance providers and/or medical personnel, which may be for identification of fraud or error, for regulatory reporting and compliance, or if we believe the disclosure is necessary to lessen or prevent a threat to life, health or safety.

We may share in aggregate, statistical form, non-personal information regarding the visitors to our website, traffic patterns, and website usage with our advertisers.

Finally, we may gain access, transfer, disclose, save and/or process your personal data when we believe in good faith that this is necessary for:

• compliance with applicable law or response to any valid legal procedure.
• the protection of you and our other customers, such as for the avoidance of junk mail, attempts to defraud our website users, or to prevent life, loss or the possibility of serious injury; and
• the protection of our rights or property, including the enforcement of the terms governing the use of products and/or services. However, if there are reasonable grounds for believing that a registered user is using our services to distribute stolen intellectual or material property of ours, we will not inspect the private content of that user on our own but we will refer the matter to the appropriate authorities.

Websites and services of third parties:

We may occasionally use third-party services to efficiently run some of the processes required to operate this website. The providers of such services have access to certain personal data which are provided by the users of this website.

We only authorize third parties to use personal data to the extent necessary to perform the services we request.

Links to other websites:

Periodically, we may provide links to other websites. We have no control over such websites, and we do not bear any responsibility for their content and data collection practices. This Policy does not extend to the use of such websites by you. We recommend that you read their respective privacy policies before using their websites.

Alterations of the ownership and control of the company:

From time to time, we and our associated companies may expand or reduce our activities, and this may result in the sale and/or transfer of our control in whole or in part. The data provided to us will be transferred, together with the part relating to any part of the transferred companies, and in accordance with the terms of this Policy, the new owner or the new controlling party will be permitted to use the data for the purposes for which we were originally given.

We may disclose data to a prospective purchaser of the company or any department thereof.

In the above cases, we will take measures to ensure the protection of your privacy.

Our website may use social media features and widgets (such as “Like” and “Share” buttons/widgets). These are provided and operated by third-party companies (i.e. Facebook, Twitter etc.) and either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our website or mobile application. Such features may collect information such as the page you are visiting on our website/mobile application, and your IP address, and may set cookies to enable the features to function properly.

If you are logged into your account with a third-party company, then the third party may be able to link information about your visit to and use of our website to your social media account with them. Similarly, your interactions with social media features may be recorded by a third party. In addition, the third-party company may send us information in line with their policies, such as your name, profile picture, gender, friend lists and any other information you have chosen to make available, and we may share information with the third-party company for the purposes of serving targeted marketing to you via the third-party social media platform. You can manage the sharing of information and opt-out from targeted marketing via your privacy settings for the third-party social media platform.

Your interactions with these social media features and widgets are governed by the privacy policy of the third-party company providing them.

YOUR RIGHTS

You may find below a list of your legal rights insofar as your personal data are concerned. Please note that some of these rights may not be applicable to your situation.

• You have the right to gain access to the personal data that we hold about you.
• You have the right of rectification, that is, to request the correction, without undue delay, of any personal data that we hold about you that is either inaccurate, incomplete or not up to date.
• You have the right to obtain the erasure of your personal data, without undue delay, provided, amongst other lawful reasons, the personal data in question are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected.
• You have the right to restrict our processing activities or to object to the processing of your personal data.
• You have the right to data portability, that is, to request from us that we send your personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and to transmit those data to another controller.
• If we rely on your consent as our legal basis for the processing of your personal data, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.

If you wish to:

• Update, alter, delete or obtain a copy of your personal information that we hold.
• Restrict or stop us from using any of the personal information which we hold on to you, including by withdrawing any consent you have previously given to the processing of such information; or
• Where any personal information has been processed on the basis of your consent or as necessary to perform a contract to which you are a party, request a copy of such personal information in a suitable format,

you can request this by emailing us at the address set out in the “Contact Information” section below. You will receive an acknowledgement of your request and we will advise you of the timeframe within which your request will be processed. We endeavour to respond to such requests within a month or less, although we reserve the right to extend this period for any complex requests.

We reserve the right to deny you access for any reason permitted under the applicable laws. Such exemptions may include national security, corporate finance and confidential references. If we deny access or correction, we will provide you with written reasons for such denial unless it is unreasonable to do so and, where required by local data protection laws, will note your request and the denial of the same in our records.

Please note that, if you request that we restrict or stop using your personal data or withdraw a consent you have previously given to the processing of such data, this may affect our ability to provide services to you or negatively impact the services we can provide to you.

We will update this Policy whenever necessary by modifying the “last updated” date indicated at the beginning of this Policy.

Unless otherwise stated, our associated companies are responsible for saving and processing of your personal data collected in line with this Policy.

WHERE WE SAVE AND PROCESS PERSONAL DATA

Your collected personal data is saved and processed in Kenya or in any other country or region in which we and our associated companies, affiliated companies, subsidiaries, contractors or service providers (and each of their employees and contractors) are operating.

We take measures to ensure that the data we collect under this Policy is processed in accordance with the provisions of this Policy and the requirements of the GDPR or the Kenyan Data Protection Act (as applicable).

In the course of processing your personal data, we as the data controller may utilize data processors or, if we are processing your personal data on behalf of another data controller, sub-processors who are not based in Kenya or the EU (as applicable). Additionally, the vendors and third parties authorized by us per our Cookie Policy to collect data from you may be based in foreign countries. As such, your personal data may be transferred outside of Kenya or the EU (as applicable). The risks that are involved in the transfer of your personal data outside of Kenya or the EU (as applicable) include:

• Inadequate or no data protection laws affording the same level of protection as the Kenyan data protection laws.
• Government bodies or other authorities being authorized or permitted to access personal data.
• Inadequate security measures being enacted by third parties or the failure of third parties to implement any security measures; and
• Malicious actions by third parties to access, alter and/or publish your personal data or threaten to do so.

You hereby acknowledge the risks associated with the transfer of your personal data outside of Kenya and you hereby consent to the said transfer.

We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal data from anyone under the age of 18 or knowingly allow such persons to purchase our products and/or services. In the event we learn that we have collected personal data from a child under the age of 18 without verification of parental consent, steps will be taken promptly to delete that data. If you believe that we have or may have information from or about a child under 18 years of age, please contact us using our contact details provided at the end of this Policy.

JURISDICTION AND GOVERNING LAW

In the event of any dispute relating to the provisions of this Policy, all actions shall be brought before the Courts of the Republic of Kenya which shall have the exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine the dispute and the applicable law shall be the laws of the Republic of Kenya or, in the case of citizens of the European Union, the GDPR.
