Integrity Tours, LLC (“Integrity Tours,” “we,” “us” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy is intended to describe how we collect, use, and disclose Personal Information that you submit to us and that we collect through our website (“Website” or “Site”).
Please read this Privacy Policy which explains how we use and protect your personal information. Our Privacy Policy covers all the platforms through which you choose to interact with us, including our mobile-enabled and social media sites. By giving us your personal information, you agree to the transfer, storing or processing of your data in accordance with this policy.
By making a booking or submitting any personal information to us, you are agreeing to us handling your personal information as set out below. If you do not agree to us using your personal information in these ways, unfortunately we can’t process your booking and you shouldn’t use our sites.
At times, we do make changes to this Policy, these changes are effective immediately, so please visit these pages regularly to keep up to date with any changes we’ve made. You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to review this site and this Privacy Policy periodically, and be aware of any modifications.
WeTravel provides booking and payment solutions for our tours. We do not own, manage, or control the WeTravel website. As such, you should also refer to their privacy policy for information on how your personal data is processed by WeTravel. https://www.wetravel.com/privacy.
What kind of personal information do we collect?
When you book through us, you need to provide certain information such as your name, address, e-mail, phone number and payment information. If you happen to fill in the contact page but for some reason don’t complete the booking, you will still be considered to have provided us with your information.
If you contact us, whether by phone, e-mail or another method, you’ll be asked to provide certain information. This is likely to include your name, address, e-mail address and phone number. We need this information so that we can respond to you appropriately.
There are also other instances when you’ll provide us with information, for example if you register to manage your booking via our website, enter one of our competitions, or complete a survey.
Information you give to us about others in your party
If you’re booking with others or for someone else, you will have to give us their information as well, for example their name and date of birth. It is your responsibility to ensure that they are aware that you have done so, and also that they accept how we use and process their information as well as yours.
If you are making a booking for a minor child, we will need their name and birthdate. We use this information strictly to complete the booking. We only ever share names of the minor with booking partners and that is on a need-to-know basis to complete the contract. Our booking partners may not share those names or use them for any future marketing purpose. In the case of a minor, you must be the parent of legal guardian on the minor to provide us with information.
What information do we collect automatically?
When you visit our Website, we automatically collect certain information such as the device IP address, the date and time you visited, the hardware, software or particular browser used and information about your visit, including any pages you viewed and interacted with. We do this automatically, even when you don’t actually make a booking.
If you’re using a mobile device to reach us, we keep data that identifies your device, location details and any specific settings.
Information we get from others
We might also get information about you from other sources, such as your schools, third-parties like credit reference agencies, payment processors, search engines, or social media sites. We may use this information with other information you provide to complete or process your booking. We will notify you when we receive information about you from them and the purposes for which we intend to use that information.
What do we do with your personal information?
Your personal information could be used in the following ways:
Processing your bookings: We use your personal information to ensure the services you’ve selected, which may include flights, hotels, transport, insurance, and other ancillary products are provided to you. We need certain information about you and your party so we can fulfil the contractual obligations when you make a booking.
User Accounts: The information that you provide when you set up an account allows us to provide you with additional services including the ability to manage your bookings, personal settings, and access to special offers.
To communicate with you about your booking: We’ll need to contact you using the email or telephone number you provided to give you information relevant to your arrangements. For example, to confirm your booking, notification of any changes, security alerts, administrative messages about your arrangements, and reminders.
Customer Services: You can contact us at any time, whether this is a general query, a question about your booking, or to report an issue. You can do this through our website, by telephone or email. We’ll use the information that you’ve given us to answer any questions and respond to your query or other queries you might have in the future. If you do contact us by telephone, your call may be recorded and reviewed for quality and training purposes. Recordings are only kept for a limited period and then automatically deleted, unless we have a legitimate interest in keeping them for a longer period.
Personalization of your experience: We sometimes use your data to enable us to show you the most relevant products and services we think you’ll be interested in, such as the best deals and special offers for destinations you like or have been to previously.
Marketing: Where you make a booking, or in any other case, if you have opted-in or signed-up, we may contact you with information about other products and services that we offer that are similar to those that you have already purchased or inquired about and we think may interest you based on your personal information. Don’t worry, you can opt-out of these emails at any time.
When you book or register with us, we will ask you if you would like to receive marketing communications. You can change your marketing preferences online, over the phone, using the “unsubscribe” link in our emails, replying STOP to the short code in our marketing text messages or by writing to us at any time. Of course, the choice is entirely yours, but if you say you do not want to receive marketing information from us you will miss out on receiving great offers and promotions that may be of interest to you.
You may still receive service-related communications from us. For example, confirming bookings you make with us and providing important information about the use of our products and/or services.
Promotional Activities: If you take part in any of our promotions (such as surveys or competitions) we will need to use the information you provide to run these promotions.
Improving our services: Sometimes we might use your data to help us improve the quality and functionality of our services. This could include eliminating bugs in our system, data analysis, testing, and statistical and survey purposes, all of which helps us improve the service we offer.
Security: We may use your data as part of efforts to keep our sites (and the information you provide to us) safe and secure, and to prevent fraud or unauthorized access/use of our sites.
Fraudulent Claims: We may use your personal information to prevent, detect, or defend any claims/actions we believe to be potentially fraudulent or detrimental to our legitimate interests.
Legal and regulatory compliance: We might need to use your information in relation to any legal disputes, regulatory, compliance or criminal investigations, or if necessary, to enforce our rights.
Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data
When we process your information as described above, we will be relying on one or more of the following legal rights:

Legitimate interest: We may use your information for our own legitimate interest, for example to provide you with the most relevant content on our site or to promote new services and for certain administrative and legal purposes. If you fail to complete a purchase, we may send you some follow-up emails to try and help you, or seek your feedback or offer you alternative products related to your selection.

How do we store your data?
Any information that you provide is stored on secure servers and all payment transactions are encrypted. Only authorized personnel are permitted to access your information in the course of their work with us. Our data security protections meet the “reasonable security requirements” of the New York “Shield Act”. While we do our best to protect your information, no information transferred over the internet or stored electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure and you provide your information to us at your own risk.
We’ll only retain your information for a reasonable period of time, or for so long as either you or the law allows.
When you pay for your tour, we don’t store your card details – instead we use an encrypted authorization ‘token’ issued by your payment provider to collect the payments.
For Residents of the European Union
Due to the nature of our business and the arrangements you have chosen, it may be necessary for your data to be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and may not be subject to the same level of data protection controls as within the EEA. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data is handled securely.
When do we share your data with third parties?
In certain circumstances we may share the information you provide to us with organizations outside of Integrity Tours. The third parties who we might share your data with include:
Service Providers: If you make a booking, we’ll have to share your booking data with the third parties, such as hoteliers, airlines, insurers, and transfer providers to complete your booking contract. The data shared may include your name and the names and ages of any guests travelling with you, any preferences or special requests you told us about when you made your booking and your contact details. If you contact us with a query about your booking, we may pass this on to our providers if they are needed to answer you. The name, address, telephone number, and email address of all service providers who may receive the information of any minor will be shared with you in the individual itinerary.
Third party support services: These includes anyone who provides support services or functions on our behalf, including payment card processing, business analytics, review agencies, advertising and customer support services. This may be to send you marketing material on our behalf or to collate information that can be analyzed to improve our service. They have access to and may collect information only as required to perform their agreed functions and are not permitted to share or use information for any other purpose.
Payment Processors and other financial institutions: When you make a payment on your booking, we use a third-party payment processor to take your payment. If you request a chargeback on your booking, it may be necessary for us to share certain details with the payment processor and the relevant financial institution, so they can manage the chargeback. This may include a copy of your booking confirmation, financial details and the IP address that was used to make your booking.
Referring websites: If you were referred to our site via another webpage, we may share some information about you with that referring website so that they can contact you about their products and services, which may include Google Analytics.
Business Affiliates: We may share your data with our business affiliates with whom we offer relevant joint services. This may include other agencies and advertising networks. We do this in order to maximize the services that we provide you and so they may contact you directly about their relevant products and services that may interest you. You can unsubscribe from these emails at any time.
Law enforcement authorities: We will disclose personal information insofar as it is required by law or where we believe it is necessary for the prevention, detection or prosecution of potentially criminal acts, including for fraud, immigration, customs, security, or anti-terrorism purposes.
Please note that while we have procedures and security features to protect your information from access by unauthorized persons and against unlawful processing, accidental loss, destruction and damage, we don’t control the privacy practices of any of these third-parties or your Service Providers and we would encourage you to review their own privacy policies where appropriate.
Furthermore, any information that you provide directly to your Service Providers or other suppliers is not covered under this Privacy Policy and we would urge to check their own privacy policies before providing any personal information.
