In order to provide services to our Users, we collect certain types of data from them. This section will describe how this data is collected and used by us as well as geographical differences that affect this policy. Data entered or transferred into us by Users such as texts, questions, contacts, media files, etc., remains the property of the User and may not be shared with a third party by us without the express consent from the User.
During a registration/booking reservation process a User must provide information such as name, company name, email, address, telephone, credit-card number and other relevant data. This information is used by us to identify the User and provide them with support, services, mailings, sales and marketing actions, billing and to meet contractual obligations.
Users can at any time access and edit, update or delete their contact details by logging in with their username and password to our travel platform; or, by emailing customer support at customerservice@mytravel.support with requested changes. Users may create more Users with different privilege levels within their account. It is the responsibility of the User that creates other User accounts to choose the level of access each User should have. Once these new Users log into our technology, they meet the definition of User in this policy. We will not retain User data longer than is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or as required by applicable laws or regulations.
