3. Why and How We Use Personal Information

We seek to collect and use personal information that is reasonably necessary to operate our Website, communicate with travelers, and provide requested services.

We may use personal information to respond to inquiries; provide travel planning and advisory services; create and administer reservations and registrations; coordinate travel arrangements and activities; communicate information concerning a journey; process or facilitate authorized payments; provide traveler support; coordinate with travel suppliers; accommodate traveler preferences or requests; administer travel insurance information when applicable; send permitted marketing communications; operate, protect, analyze, and improve our Website and services; generate statistical information; detect fraud, misuse, or security incidents; maintain appropriate records; comply with legal and contractual obligations; and protect the rights, property, safety, and interests of Fellow Travelers, our travelers, suppliers, and others.

We may also use information for other purposes disclosed when the information is collected or with your consent.

Where applicable data-protection law requires us to identify a legal basis for processing personal information, we may process information based upon:

• Performance of a contract: when processing is necessary to provide travel arrangements, reservations, registrations, or other services you request;

• Legitimate interests: when reasonably necessary to operate and improve our business, communicate with customers, maintain security, prevent fraud, and provide customer service, provided those interests are not overridden by applicable privacy rights;

• Consent: when you have provided consent for a particular use of your information, where consent is required; and

• Legal obligations: when processing is necessary to comply with applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

The applicable legal basis may depend upon the circumstances and services requested.

5. How We Share Personal Information

Travel requires coordination among multiple companies and service providers. We may share personal information when reasonably necessary to arrange, administer, or provide requested services.

Dream Vacations and World Travel Holdings

Because Gonzales Lifestyle Group LLC operates Fellow Travelers as a Dream Vacations / World Travel Holdings franchise, information related to inquiries, reservations, payments, and travel services may be provided to or processed through Dream Vacations, World Travel Holdings, and their affiliated systems and service providers.

Their handling of information may also be subject to their applicable privacy policies and practices.

Travel Suppliers

We may provide necessary traveler information to hotels and other accommodations, airlines, cruise lines, transportation providers, tour operators, destination management companies, guides, excursion providers, restaurants, event venues, activity providers, travel insurance providers, and other suppliers necessary to fulfill requested travel services.

We seek to share only information reasonably necessary for the supplier to provide or administer the applicable service.

Service Providers

We may use third parties to assist with website hosting, email communications, registration, customer relationship management, analytics, marketing, information technology, payment facilitation, document management, and other business functions.

These providers may have access to information as necessary to perform services on our behalf.

Legal and Safety Disclosures

We may disclose information we collect, use, or maintain when required or permitted by applicable law, including in response to a subpoena, court order, legal process, or lawful governmental request.

We may also disclose information when we reasonably and in good faith believe disclosure is necessary to protect or enforce our legal rights; protect the safety or security of travelers, employees, suppliers, or others; investigate suspected fraud, misuse, security incidents, or unlawful activity; respond to governmental or regulatory requests; or establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

Business Transactions

If Gonzales Lifestyle Group LLC is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, financing, sale of assets, or similar business transaction, personal information may be disclosed or transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

6. International Travel and Data Transfers

Travel services frequently require personal information to be transmitted to suppliers located outside the United States.

If you request international travel services, information necessary to arrange or provide those services may be transferred to hotels, transportation companies, tour operators, cruise lines, governmental authorities, and other organizations in countries involved in your itinerary.

Privacy and data-protection laws in those jurisdictions may differ from those in the United States.

Information collected through our Website or services may also be processed or stored in the United States or other countries where Fellow Travelers' service providers, travel suppliers, Dream Vacations, or World Travel Holdings operate.

By requesting international travel arrangements and providing information necessary to make those arrangements, you understand that relevant information may need to be transmitted internationally to fulfill your travel request.

7. Marketing Communications

You may choose to receive emails or other communications from Fellow Travelers regarding upcoming journeys, events, travel opportunities, news, and related information.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails by using the unsubscribe option included in the communication or by contacting us.

Even if you opt out of marketing communications, we may continue to send transactional or service-related communications concerning an inquiry, reservation, payment, registration, or upcoming journey.

8. Cookies and Analytics

Our Website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate Website features, remember preferences, understand Website usage, measure marketing effectiveness, maintain security, and improve the visitor experience.

Some cookies or technologies may be provided by third-party analytics, website, advertising, or social-media service providers.

Depending on your browser and technologies used on our Website, you may be able to control certain cookies through your browser settings or other privacy controls made available on the Website.

Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of portions of the Website.

9. Information Security

We take the confidentiality and security of personal information seriously and use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information we handle and services we provide.

These measures are intended to help protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, loss, or disclosure.

However, no website, electronic communication, database, wireless network, or method of transmitting or storing information can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of personal information.

Travelers should avoid transmitting passport information, credit card information, or other highly sensitive information through unsecured communication methods when a designated secure method is available.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including providing travel services, maintaining business and transaction records, resolving disputes, satisfying contractual obligations, and complying with legal, tax, accounting, insurance, and regulatory requirements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, nature of the transaction, supplier requirements, and applicable law.

When information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete, anonymize, or otherwise dispose of it in accordance with our practices and applicable law.

11. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

Depending on where you reside and applicable law, you may have certain rights concerning your personal information, including rights to:

• Be informed about the collection and use of personal information;

• Request access to personal information we maintain;

• Request correction or rectification of inaccurate information;

• Request deletion or erasure of certain information;

• Request restriction of certain processing;

• Request data portability where applicable;

• Object to certain processing;

• Withdraw consent when processing is based upon consent; and

• Exercise rights relating to certain automated decision-making and profiling, where applicable.

Not all rights apply in every jurisdiction or circumstance.

We may need to retain certain information to complete travel arrangements, maintain transaction records, comply with legal obligations, establish or defend legal claims, or fulfill other legitimate business purposes.

We may take reasonable steps to verify your identity before responding to a privacy request.

12. Additional Information for European Residents

If you are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction providing similar data-protection rights, applicable law may provide additional rights concerning your personal information.

Where applicable, our processing may be necessary to fulfill a contract with you—for example, when you request or purchase travel services—or may be based on another lawful basis described in this Policy.

Because Gonzales Lifestyle Group LLC is based in the United States and provides international travel services, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States and other countries outside your country of residence. Those countries may have privacy and data-protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction.

You may contact us using the information below to exercise an applicable privacy right.

13. Information About Other Travelers

If you provide personal information about another person—for example, a spouse, partner, friend, roommate, family member, emergency contact, or traveling companion—you represent that you are authorized to provide the information for the applicable travel or service-related purpose.

When appropriate, we encourage each adult traveler to provide their own personal and travel information directly.

14. Children's Privacy

The Fellow Travelers Website and travel services are not directed to children.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through our Website for marketing purposes. If information concerning a minor is necessary for a travel reservation, it should be provided by the minor's parent, legal guardian, or another person authorized to provide the information.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to us without appropriate authorization, please contact us.

Our Website and communications may contain links to websites, reservation systems, payment platforms, social-media services, travel suppliers, or other services that Fellow Travelers does not own or control.

16. Social Media

Fellow Travelers may maintain profiles or pages on social-media platforms.

Information you post, share, comment on, or otherwise make available through a social-media platform may be visible to the public or other users depending on your settings and the policies of that platform.

Your interactions with third-party social-media services are governed by the applicable platform's privacy practices and terms.

17. Photographs and Media

Fellow Travelers journeys and events may include opportunities for photographs or video to be taken.

Any use of identifiable traveler photographs, video, testimonials, or similar content for Fellow Travelers' promotional or marketing purposes may be subject to separate notices, permissions, releases, or other arrangements as appropriate.

This Privacy Policy does not itself constitute a photography, publicity, or likeness release.

18. Sale of Personal Information

Gonzales Lifestyle Group LLC d/b/a Fellow Travelers does not sell personal information to third parties in exchange for monetary compensation.

Certain Website analytics, advertising, or marketing technologies may be treated as “sharing,” “targeted advertising,” or similar activity under some privacy laws. To the extent such laws apply to our practices, we will provide applicable privacy choices as required by law.

19. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our services, technology, business practices, legal requirements, or other circumstances.
