1. Information We Collect

A. Booking & Travel Details

When you inquire about or book a safari, custom itinerary, or tour package with Sekekeka Tours & Travel, we collect personal information necessary to organize and execute your travel arrangements. This includes:

B. Comments & Inquiries

When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to aid spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/.

C. Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

D. Cookies & Technical Data

  • Comment Cookies: If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience. These cookies last for one year.
  • Session & Login Cookies: If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies (contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser). When you log in, we set up several cookies to save login info and screen settings (login cookies last two days; screen options last a year; “Remember Me” persists for two weeks).
  • Analytics: We use cookies and web tracking technologies to monitor traffic patterns, improve website performance, and optimize content delivery.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your personal data to:

  • Process payments, deposits, and issue invoices or receipts.
  • Respond to your requests, WhatsApp inquiries, or contact form submissions.
  • Maintain site security and prevent automated spam or fraudulent transactions.

3. Third-Party Data Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. However, to fulfill your tour bookings, we share relevant details with trusted third parties:

  • Wildlife & Park Authorities: Official government bodies (such as the Uganda Wildlife Authority or Rwanda Development Board) require passport information and full names for issuing gorilla, chimpanzee, and park activity permits.
  • Accommodations & Logistics Providers: Lodges, hotels, local safari drivers/guides, and domestic air charter operators require guest names, dietary restrictions, and flight schedules to deliver services.
  • Payment Gateways: Financial and payment processing institutions process card and electronic transfer details securely to complete bookings.
  • Automated Services: Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

4. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles and pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, maps, social media feeds, or interactive media). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

5. How Long We Retain Your Data

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
  • User Accounts: For users that register on our website (if any), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
  • Booking Records: Data associated with completed tour bookings, invoices, and permit applications is retained for accounting, legal, and operational audit purposes as required by governing regulations.

6. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site, have left comments, or submitted booking inquiries, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you.

Note: This does not include any data we are legally obliged to keep for administrative, legal, financial, or security purposes (e.g., tax records or issued permit logs).

7. Security of Your Information

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, please note that no transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed 100% secure.
