HOW WE KEEP PERSONAL INFORMATION SECURE
We are committed to protecting the security of your personal information. The personal information we collect is held on our UK servers and we have robust measures in place to prevent any unauthorised access. We limit access to personal data, especially where this may be sensitive information. We use secure methods to ensure personal information is protected when we transmit it to other organisations, for the purposes of fulfilling a request and or a holiday booking.
We only keep your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the requests and booking you have made with us. Many of our customers return to book future holidays, we do therefore store a minimal amount of information for longer, so we can provide a good customer service for you. We may also keep personal information for essential purposes such as complying with our legal obligations or resolving disputes. As our requirements can vary, our retention periods reflect this.
