Privacy Policy – Sami Lukis

SCOPE
This Privacy Policy explains how we handle and protect your personal information. It also explains how you may request to access and correct your personal information, how to make a privacy complaint and how we will handle complaints. We recommend that you review this policy regularly as we may amend it from time to time to meet our legal obligations, reflect our current practices and ensure we are transparent about our information management.
SL Tours operate from Australia and this policy provides information in accordance with our obligations under the Privacy Act.
In this policy, SL Tours (we, us) means Lukis Holdings Pty Limited t/a SL Tours (ABN 62 118 219 533).
By providing personal information to SL Tours, either directly or allowing another person to do so on your behalf, you acknowledge that this Policy will apply to how we handle your personal information.
If you do not wish your personal information to be handled in accordance with this Policy, we recommend that you do not provide your personal information to us. If you do not provide us with all the personal information we request, or if you do not provide any consent we require to be authorised to collect and handle certain personal information, this may affect our ability to provide services to you or respond to your inquiry, request or complaint.
WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT AND HOW?
The personal information we may collect about you includes your name, mailing address, telephone number, email address, credit and debit card details, details of your passport, flights, hotel and car bookings, other travel details and any special needs you may need or request.
We may from time to time monitor and review any information transmitted or received through our website or e-mail communications. During monitoring, the information may be examined, recorded or copied.
When you access our website, use any of our mobile applications or open an electronic communication from SL Tours, our servers may record data regarding your device and the network you are using to connect with us, including your IP address. An IP address is a series of numbers which identify your computer and which are generally assigned when you access the internet. Alone, IP addresses are not personal information, but we may link IP addresses to other personal information we hold about you and use it for the purpose of fraud prevention and protection.
In some circumstances SL Tours may need to collect personal information that is sensitive information. SL Tours will normally only collect your sensitive information with your consent and where it is required for your travel or other arrangements or in the event of an accident.
We collect your personal information directly from you in the course of providing a product or service or when you otherwise deal with us. For example, your personal information will be collected when you deal with us over the telephone, send us a letter, email or text message, visit our website, use our mobile applications, complete an online registration form, provide information to complete a booking, subscribe to a service provided by us or register as a member or participate in a survey, competition or promotion.
