WE TAKE PRIVACY SERIOUSLY

At egyptandjordantours.com, the privacy of our clients is extremely important to us, and we do everything we possibly can to protect your privacy, regardless of whether you book your tour at one of our offices, or whether you book via our website at egyptandjordantours.com.

We have strong protocols and a robust privacy policy in place that governs what sort of personally identifiable information (PII) we collect from our clients; how we use this information, and who we share it with. Personally Identifiable Information is any information that can be directly linked to a particular individual, such as your name; address; email address, and telephone number.

WHAT INFORMATION IS COLLECTED AND HOW DO WE OBTAIN IT?

In order for us to arrange your tour and provide you with additional services, we have to collect some of your personal information. This information will include, but will not always be limited to:

  • Your full name, along with your physical address; email address; nationality and telephone number. We will also require the same basic information for any companions who will be traveling with if booking a group tour.
  • Information relating to any special dietary or medical needs.
  • Payment information, including credit card number; card type; name of card holder; expiry date, and your billing address as it appears on your statement. In some instances, depending on your personal circumstances, additional/other information may be required.
  • Under no circumstance do we ever intentionally collect personal information from children below the age of 13. If you are younger than 13, please do not send us any personal information
  • Like most business with an online presence, our own website at egyptandjordantours.com uses cookies to collect a limited amount of information relating to general usage. This helps us to know how visitors have reached our site and how they have used our site. Collecting this data helps up to improve the appearance of our site; the functionality, and also the products and services we offer. Cookies are essentially tiny packets of information that are sent to you browser and are then stored on your hard drive until they are deleted. These days, nearly all browsers accept cookies by default unless you have set your browser to block all cookies or to ask your permission before accepting them. In order to get access to all the features on our site, egyptandjordantours.com requires that your browser accepts cookies. Under no circumstances do we ever store any of your personally identifiable information (PII) in cookies.

We are constantly striving to improve our products and services, and to maintain our edge over our competitors. This means that you may occasionally receive emails from us relating to things such as surveys, contests, special promotions and etc. For example, if you book one of our Middle East private guided tours, you may receive an email from us after you return home, asking you a few basic questions about your trip and your level of satisfaction. We sometimes also attach “web beacons” to marketing emails. These beacons allow us to know how many of our emails are opened, and this in turn helps us to understand and also improve our online marketing efforts. However, this only works with computers that actually support this technology.

When you use our website, some additional information may also be collected directly from your web browser. This data could include your IP Address; what browser and operating system you are using, and also you screen resolution. This is common practice across the internet, and no attempt is ever made by us to gather sensitive information.

Like nearly all businesses, we also use 3rd party advertising which may or may not include the use of cookies and web beacons. This is anonymous information that tells us how people are using our site and other sites that may be hosting some of our advertising material, such as banners, for example. Under no circumstance is any PII collected, and the information which is gathered is used solely for online marketing efforts.

WHAT DO WE DO WITH THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT, AND DO WE SHARE IT?

The information we gather is primarily used to make all the necessary arrangements for your trip, including things such as hotel reservations, Nile cruise reservations and any other arrangements which might need to be made in order to fulfill your requests. Occasionally, we will also use some of the information you have given us in order to send you information regarding special promotions or information relating to your trip. Under no circumstances do we share your information with any non-essential parties.

egyptandjordantours.com does everything possible to work with only the most trusted and most reputable travel suppliers. However, in cases where we need to share some of your information with them in order to make arrangements for your trip, we have no means of preventing them from sharing your information with other. With this in mind, the best we can do, is recommend that you study the privacy policies of any third party travel suppliers, such as cruise ship operators, hotel chains, and etc. if you are concerned.

It is important to remember that when you share PII with us on our site, you are sharing your information with egyptandjordantours.com only. The only exceptions would be those which have been outlined in the Privacy Policy.

In the very unlikely event where we feel people or business entities are causing you or us harm or injury to the point where we believe legal action needs to be taken, your PII may need to be passed on to the relevant authorities.
