Last updated: [10/11/2024]

Welcome to Travelopiu (the “Website”, “we”, “us” or “our”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our Website and use our services. Because our Website is operated globally, including for users in the European Economic Area (EEA), we comply with applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

1. Controller and Contact Information

The data controller responsible for your personal data in the context of this Website is:
Name: [Sigrid Hancox]
Email: info@travelopiu.com
If you have any questions or requests regarding your personal data, please contact us at the email above.

2. Data We Collect

We may collect the following types of personal data:

• Contact information (e.g., name, email address) provided voluntarily when you subscribe to our newsletter or contact us.
• Usage data (e.g., IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent) collected automatically when you visit our Website.
• Advertising and cookies data: if you engage with advertisements or services on our site, data related to ads, tracking or targeting may be collected. See our Cookie Policy for details.

3. How We Use Your Data & Legal Basis

We use your personal data for one or more of the following purposes:

• To provide and maintain our Website and services.
• To communicate with you (e.g., send newsletters, respond to inquiries).
• To analyse usage of our Website to improve content, layout and performance.
• To display relevant advertisements and measure their effectiveness (with your consent where required).

For users in the EEA, we rely on the following legal bases under GDPR:

• Your consent (e.g., for cookies, marketing communications).
• Our legitimate interests (e.g., maintaining website security, analysing usage) provided your rights do not override those interests.
• Performance of a contract or to comply with a legal obligation, if applicable.

4. Disclosure of Your Personal Data

We may share your personal data with:

• Service providers and partners who perform services on our behalf (e.g., email services, analytics providers).
• Advertising networks and affiliates if you interact with ads or affiliate links on our Website.
• Legal authorities when required by law or to protect our rights.

5. International Transfers

Because our Website is global, your personal data may be transferred to, and processed in, countries outside your country of residence — including countries without data‑protection laws equivalent to those in your jurisdiction. When we transfer data to such countries, we ensure appropriate safeguards (e.g., standard contractual clauses) to protect your rights. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, or as required by law. The specific retention period depends on the type of data and purpose. For example, usage data may be retained for 24 months and contact/subscriber data for as long as you maintain your relationship with us (or until you request deletion).

7. Your Data Subject Rights

If you are in the EEA, you have certain rights under the GDPR: :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

• Right of access – you can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Right of rectification – you can ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) – you can ask us to delete your personal data in certain cases.
• Right to restrict processing – you can ask us to limit how we use your data.
• Right to object – you can object to our processing of your data (e.g., for marketing).
• Right to data portability – you can obtain and reuse your data for another service.

8. Security of Data

We use commercially acceptable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. However, no security system is impenetrable and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Children’s Privacy

Our Website is not intended for children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, please contact us and we will delete such data.
