When you click a link to a booking site we collect this information.

When you create a member account you provide us your email, first name and last name. We also ask you to choose a password and if you agree to receive marketing emails from us. Your registration is complete when you confirm your email. Any information that you give us must be true, current and accurate.

When you start or complete a booking on Travelmyth you provide us your name, email, phone number, country of passport, special comments as well as your preferred room type, the number of persons travelling, the number of children travelling with you and their ages as well as any special requests you might have. For fraud prevention you might need to send us your identity card or passport. After the booking you might send us feedback and information about your experience at the hotel.

If you're making a booking on behalf of someone else or you're providing personal details of others that you're travelling with, it's your responsibility to get their consent before you provide their details and make sure that they understand how their data will be used according to this Privacy Policy.

When you contact us through a contact form, a support ticket, a social media message, by email or phone you provide us your name and contact details and you write a message which might include additional personal information that you choose to provide, for example your CV if you're applying for a job.

Information we collect automatically

From your IP address we try to detect your country. We need this information to serve you with relevant content, detect malfunctions and improve your experience.

Information we receive from third parties

When you're redirected to our bank to pay for a booking that Travelmyth acts as the OTA, the bank will inform us the payment was completed successfully or not, your name, card type and first and last digits of your card, expiration date and other related details. We only store on our servers the status of the payment (successful or failed).

We use Google Analytics for statistics and this service anonymously saves information like your country, your browser version and screen resolution. For more information about the data stored through Google Analytics, please visit our Travelmyth Cookies Policy.

If you complete a booking on our Platforms, we need to keep your personal data in order to provide the service and for tax, legal and auditing purposes. Usually, we'll not need to keep your data after we receive a tax clearance certificate for the tax year that your booking was placed.

If you have a member account, we keep your data for as long as you have the account. You have the right to ask us to delete your personal data if we don't have any overriding legal obligation to retain certain data.
