We are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of personal information and to maintaining appropriate physical, electronic and procedural safeguards.
By providing personal information to us, either directly or through another person acting on your behalf, you agree that this Privacy Policy applies to how we handle your information.

SENSITIVE INFORMATION
Some information may be considered sensitive under applicable data protection laws, including health information, religious beliefs, racial or ethnic origin, biometric information, criminal record information or other special-category data where applicable.
We will only collect sensitive information where it is necessary for our services, where you have consented, or where we are otherwise permitted or required to do so by law.

OVERSEAS TRANSFERS
Because travel bookings involve suppliers in different countries, your personal information may be transferred to or accessed by recipients outside Nigeria.
This may include airlines, hotels, global distribution systems, booking platforms, service providers or other suppliers located in the country where the service is provided or in the country where the supplier is based.
We may also use overseas service providers for storage, processing, technical support or administrative services.
By providing your personal information for a travel booking, you consent to these overseas disclosures where permitted by law.
SECURITY OF INFORMATION
We use reasonable physical, technical and organisational safeguards to protect personal information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
We will keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for our business, legal, tax or regulatory purposes, after which it will be destroyed or de-identified where appropriate.

You may request access to the personal information we hold about you and may ask us to correct information that is inaccurate, incomplete, outdated or misleading, subject to applicable law.
