We are the data controller for the personal information we hold about you. This policy is

compliant with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data

website.

are happy to receive them

example for accounting and tax purposes

Where we collect sensitive personal data such as health or medical information, we will only

do so with your explicit consent and will limit its use to what is necessary.

We do not sell your personal data to any third party. We will never share your data for

marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

 

7. International Data Transfers

 

As we organise trips abroad, we will need to transfer some of your personal data to suppliers

in other countries — for example, hotels and race organisers in Spain. Where we transfer

your data internationally, we take steps to ensure it is adequately protected in accordance

with UK GDPR, including:

• Only sharing data with suppliers who agree to maintain appropriate data security

standards

• Using contractual protections where required to ensure your data receives the same

level of protection as under UK law

• Providing only the minimum data necessary for suppliers to fulfil their role in your

booking

 

8. Data Security

 

We take the security of your personal data seriously. We use appropriate technical and

organisational measures to protect your data against unauthorised access, loss or misuse.

This includes:

• Storing digital data on secure systems with appropriate access controls

• Using encrypted communication channels where possible

• Limiting access to your personal data to those who need it to fulfil your booking

• Ensuring third party suppliers maintain appropriate security standards

In the unlikely event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will

notify the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) and any affected individuals as required

by law.

 

9. Sensitive Personal Data

 

In some circumstances we may collect sensitive personal data such as health or medical

information — for example if you inform us of a medical condition that may affect your

participation. We will only collect this information with your explicit consent and will use it

solely to ensure your safety and wellbeing during the trip. This information may be shared

with relevant medical personnel or suppliers where necessary.

 

10. Marketing Communications

 

We will only send you marketing communications if you have indicated you are happy to

receive them — for example by registering your interest via our form and consenting to be

contacted. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by:

• Emailing us at racereadytravel@gmail.com

Please note that opting out of marketing does not affect communications related to your

booking, which we will continue to send as necessary.

 

11. How Long We Keep Your Data

 

• If you registered interest but did not make a booking, we will retain your data for up to

12 months unless you ask us to delete it sooner.

• If you made a booking, we will retain your data for up to 6 years for accounting and

legal purposes in line with HMRC requirements.

• If you unsubscribe from marketing, we will retain a record of your opt-out to ensure

we do not contact you again.

• After the relevant retention period, your data will be securely deleted.

under the age of 18. It is the responsibility of the lead booker to obtain consent from all

members of their party to share their data with us.
