    About2Travel Limited whose registered number is 07309997 and whose registered address is - Suite B, 2nd Floor Moore House, 13 Black Lion Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN1 1ND.

    At About2Travel, we are committed to protecting your privacy and take the responsibility regarding the security of our customers' information very seriously. Please read the following for further details on our privacy policy.

    What information do we collect and how do we use it?

    In order to process your booking we do require certain information. This will include the name of the person making the booking, address, telephone number, email address, and your credit card number and expiry date. We may also need to establish your flight details, destination resort and accommodation depending on which travel extra is being booked.

    All of this information is collated for different reasons. As an example, for airport transfer we need to establish your holiday details to ensure your taxi is waiting for the correct flight and knows which hotel to take you to. Your telephone/email address are required in order to send your booking voucher and contact you in the unlikely event of any changes prior to departure. We need your address to assist in processing your credit card transaction as proof of authentication helping prevent any potential fraudulent activity.

    NB: Credit card details will be handled securely to ensure confidentiality. SSL (Secure sockets layer) encryption is employed to ensure sensitive data is protected.

    Who do you share your information with?

    About2Travel collates your information solely for the purpose of making your booking and does not share, sell, trade or rent your personal information with anyone.
