THIRD-PARTY CONTENT, LINKS, AND INTEGRATIONS
As noted above, our emails, websites and webforms will contain third-party content, links, and integrations. We are not responsible for how an advertiser and such other third parties collect or use your information. As always, we encourage you to read the privacy policies of every advertiser and third-party service that you visit or use.
HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION
How long we keep your information depends on the type of information, the purpose for which it is used, how sensitive it is, and other similar factors. For example, we keep your information:
- That you submit through our travel partners, websites and webforms (like your name, email address, etc.) until you ask us to delete it.
- For the length of time reasonably needed to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy (including for as long as need to provide you with our services), unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

If you ever decide to stop using our websites and webforms, you can ask us to delete your information.
HOW WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SECURE
The security of your personal information is very important, and we take a number of steps to safeguard it. For example, we have implemented technical and organisational security measures that are designed to help protect your information from unauthorised access, disclosure, use, and modification. We also maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with or exceed legal standards to guard your information, and we anonymise or expunge data when it is no longer necessary to provide services to our users or substantiate records for an advertiser. From time-to-time, we review our security procedures to consider appropriate new technologies and methods.
Even so, despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect, impenetrable, or 100% secure. We cannot ensure, and do not warrant or guarantee, that the information you transmit to us will remain secure, nor do we guarantee that this information will not be accessed, disclosed, altered, destroyed or used in an unauthorised manner. These are the risks of being online and conducting business online.
Of course, if we learn of a security breach, we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps.
