This Privacy Policy explains how we manage the personal information that we collect, use and disclose and how to contact us if you have any concerns.

It may also include more sensitive information like marital status, dietary and health issues. Other information that may be collected can derive from communications between you and us, and transactional information about your use of our products and services (for example your feedback on how you enjoyed your UK holiday). We are required to collect such information to fulfill our obligations as the supplier of the services you require, for example car hire, accommodation bookings etc.

  • being aware of any special travel requirements (health or otherwise) you may have.
  • providing you with confirmation of your booking and advising you of any changes to your itinerary or accommodation.
  • confirming your identity so we can supply you with the travel documents and vouchers.
  • addressing any feedback or complaints you may have.
  • answering any queries you may have, and
  • any purposes for which it was requested and directly related purposes, and developing, improving and marketing our products and services.
