How We Collect and Use Your Personal Data

In this section, we detail:

 

Analytics Data

We may gather and process data about your use of our website ("analytics data"). This may include your IP address, approximate location, browser type and version, operating system, referral source, visit duration, and navigation paths, as well as your email address and information about the frequency and pattern of your visits. We collect this data via Google Analytics. The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in improving our website and service.

Customer Data

We collect and process information related to customer profiles ("Customer Data"). This includes your full name, email address, phone number, and billing address, which you provide during the booking process. The legal basis for processing this data is contract performance, specifically to communicate reliably with you regarding your bookings and to organize and provide the requested service. Some of this data may be shared with third-party services as part of transaction information or analytics data.

Journey Data

We may collect and process personal data related to journeys or transfers ("Journey Data"). This includes the head passenger's name, passenger mobile number, journey route, flight/service numbers, and travel dates and times. The legal basis for processing this data is contract performance.

Transaction Data

We may collect and process data related to payments made through our website or customer service agents ("Transaction Data"). This includes card number, expiry date, and security code, as well as billing address and cardholder's name. We also process additional data to conduct background checks to reduce fraudulent activity, which may include your email address and phone numbers. Transaction data is handled but not stored by us and is passed to a third-party service, SagePay. The legal basis for processing this data is contract performance.

Correspondence Data

We may process information contained in or relating to any communication with us ("correspondence data"). This includes email content, online chat transcripts, call recordings, and associated metadata. Correspondence data may be processed for communication purposes. We avoid collecting transaction data in correspondence data and delete any such records if captured. The legal basis for this processing is contract performance, specifically to organize and supply the purchased services.
