Recipients and International Transfers

We may share personal data with trusted service providers who process data on our behalf for hosting, security, content delivery, analytics, communications, reservations, or maintenance. These providers include Cloudflare. We require such providers to process personal data only under our instructions and to implement appropriate security measures.

Where personal data is transferred outside the United Kingdom, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as adequacy regulations, standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission together with the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, or other lawful transfer mechanisms. You can request further information about these safeguards using the contact details provided on the Website.

Retention

Personal data is kept only for as long as necessary for the purposes described above and to meet legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. As a general guide:

  • Security and access logs: up to 12 months unless a longer period is needed to investigate incidents.
  • Enquiries and booking-related data: for the duration needed to handle your request and for up to 3 years thereafter.
  • Cookie and consent records: for the duration of the relevant cookie’s life and up to 6 years for consent records where required by law.

Your Rights

Under UK data protection law, you have rights to request access to your personal data, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and to object to processing based on legitimate interests. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time (this will not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal).

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO): Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF; telephone 0303 123 1113; website ico.org.uk.

Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including encryption in transit, access controls, and network security. No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

The Website is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 without verifiable consent from a parent or legal guardian.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device to make the Website work, keep it secure, and improve your experience. We use the following categories of cookies:

  • Strictly necessary cookies: required for the operation and security of the Website and cannot be switched off. Examples include Cloudflare cookies used for bot management and to maintain connection security (such as __cf_bm, cf_clearance, and __cfruid). These typically last from the session duration up to around 30 days and do not store personally identifying information.
  • Performance and analytics cookies: help us understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve it. These are used only with your consent where required by law and may be first-party or set by third parties acting on our behalf.
  • Functionality cookies: remember choices to provide enhanced features; used only where necessary and, where applicable, with your consent.

Managing cookies: You can manage cookies through your browser settings to block or delete cookies. If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the Website may not function properly. Where we use a cookie consent tool, you can adjust your preferences at any time via that tool.

Do Not Track: The Website does not currently respond to “Do Not Track” signals because there is no consistent industry standard for compliance.

The courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction. If you are a consumer resident in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may bring proceedings in your local courts.
