PRIVACY POLICY

PICTOURS OF GREECE operates the website www.pictoursofgreece.com, which offers all-inclusive travel packages throughout Greece. This page is intended to inform visitors about our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information for those who choose to use our services. By using our Service, you consent to the collection and use of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. The information we collect is used solely for the purpose of providing and enhancing our services. We do not share or disclose your information with third parties except as outlined in this policy. Unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, the terms used herein have the same meanings as those found in our Terms and Conditions, available at www.pictoursofgreece.com.

In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), the privacy and security of your personal data is a top priority for PICTOURS OF GREECE. We have implemented all necessary measures to protect the confidentiality and integrity of the information we collect. These measures include encryption protocols for data transmission, antivirus controls at the server level, firewalls, IP-based restrictions, and other security practices. PICTOURS OF GREECE ensures the protection of your personal data in compliance with the applicable data protection laws, including GDPR. Below, we outline our privacy policy and the specific steps we take to safeguard your information.

To enhance your experience while using our Service, we may request certain personally identifiable information, such as your name, age, email address, phone number, and postal address. This information may be collected when you create an account on our website, submit an inquiry, or make a reservation for a tour. The data we collect will be used to contact you and provide the services you request. All personal information is securely stored in the data center where our website is hosted, in compliance with the necessary security protocols to protect your data and the integrity of the PICTOURS OF GREECE database. We assure users that only the necessary information is collected, and you have full access to your personal data at any time through your Dashboard. Your data will remain in our database until you choose to delete it by submitting a Delete Request via the Dashboard, as outlined below.

Users have direct access to their personal data through a dedicated management tool on our website, where they can view and update their account information. Additionally, users can submit a Delete Request to our administrators to remove their personal data from our database. Users also have the option to restrict their interaction with the site by unsubscribing from our mailing list at any time, ensuring they no longer receive communications or updates from PICTOURS OF GREECE.

PICTOURS OF GREECE assures users that their personal data is fully protected. The only third parties with whom data is shared are those directly involved in fulfilling the service requested by the user, such as hotel providers, catering services, and ferry companies in Greece. Only the essential contact and identification information necessary for the provision of these services will be shared. We want to make it clear that these third parties do not have direct access to your personal data and are contractually obligated not to disclose or use your information for any purposes other than to provide the requested services.

Data transfers to and from the PICTOURS OF GREECE database are secured using high-level encryption protocols, such as TLS, ensuring the protection of your personal information. For additional security, we perform regular database backups. These backups are stored at the data center of our hosting provider, which is certified to maintain data security. In the event of local storage of backups, they are securely stored on a hard disk at PICTOURS OF GREECE’s headquarters. Access to these backups is strictly limited to authorized administrators, who are the only personnel with permission to delete data.

While any online system is susceptible to potential data breaches, PICTOURS OF GREECE takes extensive measures to safeguard against data loss or unauthorized access. Importantly, our website does not store credit card details, as all online transactions are securely processed through a trusted bank application. Furthermore, any deletion of customer data requires authentication via the customer’s email address, preventing unauthorized account removal. Our system is designed with multiple layers of server and database security, utilizing robust encryption algorithms, including those for password protection. To protect against Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks, all input fields in forms are carefully filtered, allowing only alphanumeric characters and specific special characters, while blocking JavaScript and HTML tags to prevent malicious input.
