Privacy Policy

Your safety matters to us!

Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice explains how we collect, use and protect any information about you. It also tells you how to get in touch if you have any questions, which we will be more than happy to answer. If you’re interested in what we do with cookies and similar technologies, please check out our Cookie Statement.

We may change this Notice from time to time; so please check back here for any updates.

We offer a range of services related to online shared tours, through our own websites, mobile apps, emails and text messages (‘platforms’). We also do this through our business partners’ websites, social media and other platforms. This Notice applies to all the personal data we collect while we’re doing this, or when you contact us by email, live chat, phone or post.

Personal data you give us

We can’t help you make a booking or chat live with other travelers without certain information. When you do either of those things, we ask you for the information we need so we can give you what you want. This is pretty standard stuff and may include your name, age, date and place of birth and contact details (email, address and phone number). It can also include information about your passport, identity card – and payment information.

In addition, we collect information from your computer when you use one of our platforms, even if you don’t make a booking. This may include your IP address, which browser you use, and your language settings. There are also situations where we receive information about you from third parties, or automatically collect other information. This is a basic overview of the information we collect. Would you like to know more?

We store and use the information that you give us. When you make a booking, we need at least your name, email address and payment information. We might also ask for your phone number and date of birth, and the names of any other travelers you book a tour for.

If you get in touch with us (by customer support live chat, by email or through social media, for example) we will collect information from you there too.

After your booking, we may ask you to provide a review to help us improve our services, and to help ensure future customers get exactly what they’re looking for.

There are also other ways you might give us information. For example, if you’re browsing with your mobile device, you can share your current location with us, so we can provide you with the best possible service. To make things easier, you can also open a user account, which lets you review and manage your bookings, as well as saving your personal settings. It also makes it easier to make future bookings.

Personal data you give us about others

You might make a booking on behalf of someone else, for example, a friend, family member or colleague. If you do, please make sure that that person knows you’re giving us their details, and has accepted the way we handle their personal data (as described in this Notice). This is your responsibility.

Personal data we collect automatically

When you make a booking, we record what platform you made it on, and how you got to our platform (if you came through from another site, for example).

Even if you don’t end up making a booking, we may automatically collect some information when you visit our platforms. This may include your IP address, which pages you’ve visited, which browser you’re using, and information about clicks. It might also include information about your computer’s operating system, its application version, language settings, device-specific setting and characteristics, and data that identifies your device.

If you’re using a mobile device, we might also collect location details. And we might analyse, and process basic data related to the apps installed on it (e.g. name, description and category).

Why do we collect and use your personal data?

We ask for your personal data so we can book your trip, provide your data to our services providers such as (Your name, age, profile picture, and your location) (and anything else we need for your booking), and make sure you get the best possible service. We also use it to contact you, and to tell you about our latest deals and special offers. These are the main reasons we collect your personal data, but there are other reasons too. Would you like to know more?

We may use your personal data in the following ways:

  1. Bookings: First and foremost, we use your personal data to make and administer your booking, and to forward the necessary details to the service provider that provides your trip (or other product or service, such as transportation). This includes sending you communications in relation to your booking, such as confirmations, modifications and reminders.
  2. Customer service: We provide international customer service 24/7. Our international customer service teams need your details so they can help you make a booking, for example, or to reply to any queries you may have before, during or after your booking.
  3. Customer reviews: We may use your contact details to send you a short questionnaire about your booking. This helps us understand and improve our service and the service our business partners provide.
  4. Account facilities: To make things easier, you can create a user account on our platforms. This involves giving us your personal data, and it lets you do a number of useful things. You can manage your bookings or other purchases, take advantage of special offers, and also manage your personal settings and preferences. It also makes it easier to make future bookings.
  5. Marketing activities:We also use your personal data for marketing activities, which may include:
    • Contacting you by post, email or SMS (depending on the contact details you give us) with our latest news, special offers, discounts and updates, including details of our products and services. You can unsubscribe from these marketing communications quickly, easily and at any time – just click the “unsubscribe” link in any email.
    • Showing you relevant offers on our platforms or on third-party websites, including social media sites.
    • Inviting you to participate in promotional activities (such as referral programs or competitions).
  6. Communicating with you: There may be other times when we contact you by email or SMS. There could be a number of reasons for this, including:
    • Responding to, and handling any requests you have made.
    • Emailing you a reminder about a booking you didn’t finalize, to see if you need any help to do so. We see this as a useful additional service because it lets you carry on with a booking without having to find the trip again or fill in all the booking details from scratch.
    • Sending you a questionnaire or inviting you to review your experience.
    • Sending you other material related to your booking, such as how to contact us if you need help during your booking.
    • Sending you a summary of your previous bookings.
    • Sending you other administrative messages, which may include security alerts, even if you don’t have an upcoming booking.
  7. Market research: We may ask you to take part in market research. Any additional personal data that you give us as part of this research will be used only with your consent.
  8. Fraud detection and prevention: To provide a safe, trustworthy service, we use your personal data to detect and prevent fraud and other illegal or unwanted activities. Similarly, we may use personal data for risk assessment and security purposes, which can include verifying users and bookings. This can sometimes mean we may have to put certain bookings on hold.
  9. Improving our services: We analyse personal data to help us improve the functionality and quality of our online services, and enhance the whole user experience. We’re always working to make our platform easier and more enjoyable for you to use.
  10. Customer reviews: After your booking, we may invite you to review the services that we or our business partner provided. Your review will help future customers make the right choice, and help our business partners improve the services they offer. By submitting a review, you are agreeing that it can be displayed, as explained in our Terms and Conditions. You can make a review anonymously or simply put your first name and country location.
  11. Chat monitoring: We may record a chat transcript and/or allow other staff to read in to them, to help us train our colleagues and make sure we’re consistentl providing a top-quality service. We automatically delete transcripts after a specified time, unless we have a legitimate reason not to (if we think there’s evidence of fraud, for example).
  12. Legal purposes: Finally, in certain cases, we may need to use your personal data to handle and resolve legal disputes, for regulatory investigations, for compliance reasons, or to make sure we apply our terms and conditions accurately.

To process your personal data like this, we rely on the following legal grounds:

  • Performance of a contract: We need to use your personal data to fulfill any contract you’ve made with us. For example, when you book a Tour, we need to transfer your booking details to the rental Tour guide or other service providers to make sure your tour is handled best for you.
  • Legitimate interests: We may use your information for our ‘legitimate interests’ (a term which applies to anything we believe is an essential part of carrying out our business effectively – at the same time as respecting your rights and upholding the law). For example, to provide you with the most suitable content on our platforms, including our emails and newsletters; to improve and promote our products and services; and for administrative purposes.
  • Consent: We may rely on your consent to use your personal data in certain circumstances, for example direct marketing purposes. You may withdraw your consent at any time via our Data Subject Request Portal or by emailing info@aladintour.com, stating “Privacy” in the subject line.

What third parties do we share your personal data with – and why?

There are a number of different business partners integrated in the services we provide, and in certain situations we may share your personal data with them. In most cases, we’re simply passing on your booking details to the business partners that are helping us deliver the service you’re requesting. We will also share your data with other third parties, which may include payment service providers, advertising partners, subsidiaries of the aladintours.uk corporate, and – in some cases – the authorities. These are the main reasons we would share your personal data. Would you like to know more?

  • The service providers supplying your Tours and/or related products and services: To make your booking, we need to send the relevant details to the tour guide supplying the tours and/or other related products (including transportation) that you have requested. These details may include your name, age range, contact details (email, address and phone number), date and place of birth, and any preferences you told us about while booking. If there is a dispute about your booking, or any other kind of customer service issue, we may need to provide the tour guides with some information about the booking process as well as the dispute itself. This may include a copy of your booking confirmation, to prove that a booking was actually made, as well as any information related to your complaint.
  • Competent authorities:We may share your personal data with government or investigative authorities if we’re required to do so by law (or any regulation having the force of law). This includes court orders, subpoenas and orders arising from legal processes and criminal investigations. We may also disclose your personal data if strictly necessary for the prevention, detection or prosecution of fraud and other criminal acts. And we may need to disclose personal data to competent authorities to protect and defend our rights or properties, or the rights or properties of our business partners.
  • Third-party service providers:We may use third-party service providers to process your personal data on our behalf and support us in providing our services. For example, we may use them to contact you, or to manage aspects of our site, or marketing activities. We may also use third-party service providers for market research, fraud detection and prevention services, including anti-fraud screening services. These third parties are bound by confidentiality clauses and are not allowed to use your personal data for other purposes.
  • Advertising partners: We may share your email address and other personal data with third-party advertising partners, We also work with third-party advertisement networks to market services on other platforms, and with third-party suppliers who help us analyse our own data. All these third parties will be bound by confidentiality agreements and will not be allowed to use your personal data for any other purposes. For more information on personalized advertisements and your choices, please read “How and why do we use these technologies?” and “It’s your choice: Opting in and opting out” in our Cookie Statement.
  • Payment service providers and other financial institutions: We also work with third-party payment service providers to arrange payment or payment guarantees. If you (or the holder of the bank card used to make your booking) request a charge back, we may need to share certain booking details with the payment service provider and the relevant financial institution. This may include a copy of your booking confirmation or the IP address used to make your booking. We may also share information with relevant financial institutions, if we consider it necessary for fraud detection and prevention purposes.

How do we make use of mobile devices?

We offer free apps for a range of mobile devices, as well as versions of our regular website that have been optimized for mobile and tablet browsing. They collect and process your personal data in much the same way as our other platforms do, and they also allow you to find local tours based on your current location. Would you like to know more?

If you agree to it, we can send ‘push’ notifications straight to your mobile device, so you don’t miss important information about your booking. And, if you let us access your device’s location or contact details, we can provide extra services if you request them. Your mobile device will have instructions on allowing push notifications and giving us access to this kind of data.

To give you a better service and more relevant marketing, we may use something known as ‘cross-device tracking’. This just means we look at the way you use our platforms on more than one device: we could, for example, combine data from your mobile phone and your home computer. This is something we may or may not use cookies for (for more on cookies and similar technologies, please see our Cookie Statement).

To make sure you find deals that are more likely to interest you in our newsletter, we look at the searches you make and the services you book on multiple devices once you’ve signed in to your user account. If you don’t want us to do this, just sign out before you browse, or unsubscribe from our newsletter.

Cross-device tracking can also mean that when you’re using one device, you may see personalized advertisements from lots of different companies, based on your activities on linked devices. The NAI (Network Advertising Initiative) should stop this happening if you opt out of the NAI behavioral advertising program (our Cookie Statement gives you the link you need, under “It’s your choice: Opting in and opting out”). Please note: simply signing out of your user account won’t stop this happening.

What security procedures do we put in place to safeguard your personal data?

Our business systems and procedures ensure we take all reasonable steps to protect your personal data and safeguard it against any misuse or unauthorized access, in accordance with UK and European data protection laws. We also have specific security procedures and restrictions (both technical and physical) that limit access to, and use of, any personal data that we hold. Only authorized personnel can access personal data – and they’re only allowed to do it for specific, authorized reasons.

How do we treat the personal data of children?

We don’t provide services to children under the age of 18 and we reserve the right to delete any information we may receive from a child under this age. We may receive information about children in certain situations, such as a customer service dispute. If that happens, we will only collect and use that information with the consent of the child’s parent or guardian.

How can you control the personal data you have given us?

You have the right, subject to some legal exceptions, to access, correct or delete any personal data we keep about you, and to object to your personal data being processed. You can use our Data Subject Access Portal to enforce any of these rights. If you do, we will ask for further information to confirm your identity, to keep your information safe and we will handle your request in accordance with applicable UK data protection law. You can update or delete your user account at any time by signing in on our site.

When you make a booking, we ask whether you’d like to opt in to receive marketing emails. You can opt out at any time by clicking “unsubscribe” in any of these marketing emails, or by updating your email preferences in your user account.
