Processing Purpose

How We Use Data

We use personal data to respond to inquiries, manage reservations, confirm dates and group details, collect and review dietary information, coordinate meeting points, process payments, communicate about route and tasting arrangements, provide the guided experience, handle follow-up messages, maintain records, improve service quality, and meet legal obligations. We may also use limited technical data to secure the website, prevent misuse, and understand general site performance.

Processing is limited to the operational needs of the website and tour service.
Data Sharing

Service Providers and Partners

We may share personal data with service providers that help us operate the website, process payments, manage communications, or support booking administration. Where a tour requires coordination with a venue or local service partner, we may share only the information needed to confirm the arrangement, such as booking details or dietary notes. These recipients are expected to use the information only for the assigned purpose.

Operational recipients are used only to support booking, payment, and website functions.

We may collect identification details, contact details, booking information, dietary preferences, group size, meeting point details, payment-related records, communication content, and limited technical data such as device or browser information. Where needed for a tour, we may also process information you provide about accessibility needs or route suitability so we can confirm whether a specific experience can be arranged.

The categories collected depend on booking, inquiry, and tour participation activities.
