| Health information | Medical conditions, mobility needs or vaccination details you choose to share so we can support you during the trip |
| Website data | Pages visited, device and browser type, approximate location from your IP address |

How We Protect It
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your information, including access controls, encrypted storage and limiting who on our team can view travel documents.

Marketing
With your consent, we may send occasional emails or messages about upcoming trips and departure dates. Every message includes a way to unsubscribe, and you can opt out at any time by replying or emailing us. Opting out of marketing does not stop essential messages about a trip you have booked.
Children's Data
