WE ARE FIRMLY COMMITTED TO PROTECTING THE PRIVACY AND CONFIDENTIALITY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION AND TO MAINTAINING VARIOUS PHYSICAL, ELECTRONIC AND PROCEDURAL SAFEGUARDS TO PROTECT PERSONAL INFORMATION IN OUR CARE.

  • OUR PROVISION OF BUSINESS TRAVEL SERVICES;

  • EVENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES;

  • THE PROVISION OF LEISURE TRAVEL SERVICES; AND

  • FOR THE PURPOSE OF ALL OUR MARKETING ACTIVITIES.

THERE MAY BE INSTANCES WHERE YOUR LOCAL DATA PROTECTION LAWS IMPOSE MORE RESTRICTIVE INFORMATION HANDLING PRACTICES THAN THE PRACTICES SET OUT IN THIS NOTICE. WHERE THIS OCCURS, WE WILL ADJUST OUR INFORMATION HANDLING PRACTICES IN YOUR JURISDICTION TO COMPLY WITH THESE LOCAL DATA PROTECTION LAWS.

2. WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

PERSONAL INFORMATION HAS THE MEANING GIVEN UNDER YOUR LOCAL DATA PROTECTION LAW, AND, WHERE THE GDPR APPLIES, THE MEANING OF PERSONAL DATA GIVEN UNDER THE GDPR. PERSONAL INFORMATION GENERALLY MEANS INFORMATION WHICH RELATES TO A LIVING INDIVIDUAL WHO CAN BE IDENTIFIED FROM THAT INFORMATION, OR FROM THAT INFORMATION AND OTHER INFORMATION IN A PERSON’S POSSESSION, INCLUDING ANY EXPRESSION OF OPINION, WHETHER TRUE OR NOT, AND WHETHER RECORDED IN MATERIAL FORM OR NOT, ABOUT AN IDENTIFIED OR REASONABLY IDENTIFIABLE INDIVIDUAL, AND ANY INDICATION OF INTENTION IN RESPECT OF AN INDIVIDUAL.

GENERALLY, THE TYPE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT ABOUT YOU IS THE INFORMATION THAT IS NEEDED TO FACILITATE YOUR TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS AND BOOKINGS AND TO ARRANGE TRAVEL RELATED SERVICES AND/OR PRODUCTS ON YOUR BEHALF.

WE THEREFORE TYPICALLY PROCESS THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU:

  • CONTACT INFORMATION (SUCH AS NAME, RESIDENTIAL/MAILING ADDRESS, TELEPHONE NUMBER, EMAIL ADDRESS);

  • PAYMENT ACCOUNT INFORMATION (CREDIT/DEBIT CARD DETAILS, INCLUDING CARD TYPE, CARD NUMBER, SECURITY NUMBER AND EXPIRY DATE);

  • PASSPORT DETAILS;

  • LOYALTY PROGRAM / FREQUENT FLYER DETAILS;

  • HEALTH INFORMATION SUCH AS YOUR DIETARY REQUIREMENTS AND HEALTH ISSUES (IF ANY); AND

  • OTHER DETAILS RELEVANT TO YOUR TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS OR REQUIRED BY THE RELEVANT TRAVEL SERVICE PROVIDER(S) (E.G. AIRLINES AND ACCOMMODATION OR TOUR PROVIDERS).

WE ALSO COLLECT ONLINE IDENTIFIERS SUCH AS YOUR IP ADDRESS AND DATA REGARDING YOUR DEVICE AND THE NETWORK YOU ARE USING TO CONNECT WITH US.

WHEN YOU CONTACT US FOR OTHER PURPOSES, WE MAY ALSO COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU IN RELATION TO THOSE PURPOSES. FOR EXAMPLE, WE MAY COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION SO WE CAN CONTACT YOU ABOUT A COMPETITION YOU HAVE ENTERED (E.G. IF YOU WIN) OR TO RESPOND TO AN ENQUIRY OR FEEDBACK YOU HAVE SENT TO US. WE ALSO COLLECT INFORMATION THAT IS REQUIRED FOR USE IN THE BUSINESS ACTIVITIES OF LUXOTIC RETREATS AND OUR RELATED ENTITIES, INCLUDING FOR EXAMPLE, FINANCIAL DETAILS NECESSARY IN ORDER TO PROCESS VARIOUS TRANSACTIONS, AUDIO, ELECTRONIC AND VISUAL INFORMATION (SUCH AS VIDEO SURVEILLANCE FOOTAGE) USED FOR SECURITY PURPOSES, VOICE RECORDINGS FOR QUALITY CONTROL AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION, AND RELEVANT PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU MAY ELECT TO PROVIDE TO US.

IN SOME CIRCUMSTANCES, WE MAY COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION FROM YOU WHICH MAY BE REGARDED AS SENSITIVE INFORMATION UNDER YOUR LOCAL DATA PROTECTION LAWS. SENSITIVE INFORMATION MAY INCLUDE (WITHOUT LIMITATION) YOUR RACIAL OR ETHNIC ORIGIN, PHILOSOPHICAL OR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS OR AFFILIATIONS, SEXUAL PREFERENCES OR PRACTICES, MEMBERSHIP OF POLITICAL, PROFESSIONAL OR TRADE ASSOCIATIONS (FOR USE IN BOOKING SPECIAL RATES), BIOMETRIC AND GENETIC INFORMATION, PASSWORDS AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND HEALTH INFORMATION PLEASE NOTE THAT, WHEN NECESSARY FOR TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS, WE MAY COLLECT FROM A RESPONSIBLE ADULT PERSONAL INFORMATION RELATING TO A CHILD OF ANY AGE, BUT WE DO NOT KNOWINGLY COLLECT ANY SUCH INFORMATION DIRECTLY FROM CHILDREN.

WE WILL ONLY COLLECT SENSITIVE INFORMATION IN COMPLIANCE WITH YOUR LOCAL DATA PROTECTION LAWS, WITH YOUR EXPLICIT CONSENT AND WHERE IT IS REASONABLY NECESSARY FOR, OR DIRECTLY RELATED TO, ONE OR MORE OF OUR FUNCTIONS OR ACTIVITIES (E.G. TO MAKE TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS), UNLESS WE ARE OTHERWISE REQUIRED OR AUTHORIZED TO DO SO BY LAW. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED OR REQUIRED UNDER YOUR LOCAL DATA PROTECTION LAWS, YOU CONSENT TO US USING AND DISCLOSING YOUR SENSITIVE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT WAS COLLECTED. FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU PROVIDE HEALTH INFORMATION TO US IN CONNECTION WITH A TRAVEL INSURANCE APPLICATION YOU WOULD LIKE TO MAKE, YOU CONSENT TO US USING AND DISCLOSING THAT HEALTH INFORMATION IN CONNECTION WITH ARRANGING THAT TRAVEL INSURANCE ON YOUR BEHALF. A FURTHER EXAMPLE IS IF YOU DISCLOSE YOUR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS TO US BECAUSE YOU ARE INTERESTED IN, FOR EXAMPLE, CERTAIN HOLIDAY PACKAGES, IN WHICH CASE YOU CONSENT TO US USING AND DISCLOSING THAT INFORMATION IN CONNECTION WITH FACILITATING YOUR REQUEST. WE WILL NOT USE OR DISCLOSE SENSITIVE INFORMATION FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN THOSE FOR WHICH IT WAS COLLECTED, UNLESS WE SUBSEQUENTLY RECEIVE YOUR CONSENT TO USE IT FOR ANOTHER PURPOSE.

3. HOW DO WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION?

WE WILL ONLY COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION IN COMPLIANCE WITH YOUR LOCAL DATA PROTECTION LAWS. WE USUALLY COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION DIRECTLY FROM YOU DURING THE COURSE OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH US. WE WILL COLLECT THIS INFORMATION DIRECTLY FROM YOU UNLESS IT IS UNREASONABLE OR IMPRACTICABLE TO DO SO.

GENERALLY, THIS COLLECTION WILL OCCUR:

  • WHEN YOU DEAL WITH US EITHER IN PERSON, BY TELEPHONE, LETTER, EMAIL;

UNLESS YOU CHOOSE TO DO SO UNDER A PSEUDONYM OR ANONYMOUSLY, WE MAY ALSO COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION (OTHER THAN SENSITIVE INFORMATION) WHEN YOU COMPLETE SURVEYS OR PROVIDE US WITH FEEDBACK.

IN SOME CIRCUMSTANCES, IT MAY BE NECESSARY FOR US TO COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU FROM A THIRD PARTY. THIS INCLUDES WHERE A PERSON MAKES A TRAVEL BOOKING ON YOUR BEHALF WHICH INCLUDES TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS TO BE USED BY YOU (E.G. A FAMILY OR GROUP BOOKING OR A TRAVEL BOOKING MADE FOR YOU BY YOUR EMPLOYER). WHERE THIS OCCURS, WE WILL RELY ON THE AUTHORITY OF THE PERSON MAKING THE TRAVEL BOOKING TO ACT ON BEHALF OF ANY OTHER TRAVELER ON THE BOOKING.

WHERE YOU MAKE A TRAVEL BOOKING ON BEHALF OF ANOTHER PERSON (E.G. A FAMILY OR GROUP BOOKING OR A TRAVEL BOOKING MADE FOR AN EMPLOYEE), YOU AGREE TO HAVE OBTAINED THE CONSENT OF THE OTHER PERSON FOR LUXOTIC RETREATS TO COLLECT, USE AND DISCLOSE THE OTHER PERSON'S PERSONAL INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS NOTICE AND THAT YOU HAVE OTHERWISE MADE THE OTHER PERSON AWARE OF THIS NOTICE.

YOU SHOULD LET US KNOW IMMEDIATELY IF YOU BECOME AWARE THAT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION HAS BEEN PROVIDED TO US BY ANOTHER PERSON WITHOUT YOUR CONSENT OR IF YOU DID NOT OBTAIN CONSENT BEFORE PROVIDING ANOTHER PERSON'S PERSONAL INFORMATION TO US.

WE MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO MAINTAIN THE ACCURACY AND COMPLETENESS OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WHICH WE STORE AND TO ENSURE ALL OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION IS UP TO DATE. HOWEVER, YOU CAN ASSIST US WITH THIS CONSIDERABLY BY PROMPTLY CONTACTING US IF THERE ARE ANY CHANGES TO YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE THAT WE HAVE INACCURATE PERSONAL INFORMATION RELATING TO YOU (SEE SECTION 14 BELOW).

  • THE PROCESSING IS NECESSARY FOR OUR LEGITIMATE INTERESTS OR THOSE OF ANY THIRD PARTY RECIPIENTS THAT RECEIVE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION (AS DETAILED IN SECTIONS 5 AND 6 BELOW).

IN DETAIL: WHERE YOU CONTACT US IN RELATION TO A TRAVEL BOOKING OR QUERY, THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH WE COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION IS GENERALLY TO PROVIDE YOU WITH TRAVEL ADVICE AND/OR TO ASSIST YOU WITH BOOKING TRAVEL AND/OR TRAVEL RELATED PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.
