Privacy Policy

Birding365 may collect certain personal information when you interact with our website or communicate with our team. The information collected may include your full name, email address, telephone number, residential address, country of residence and other contact details.

When you enquire about or book one of our birding photography tours, we may also collect travel-related information, including your preferred destination, travel dates, number of participants, accommodation preferences, dietary requirements and other details necessary to arrange your trip.

For international or domestic travel arrangements, certain identification or travel documentation details may be required where necessary for bookings, transportation, accommodation or legal compliance. We may also automatically collect limited technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device information and website usage patterns.

The information collected by Birding365 is used primarily to provide reliable, convenient and personalised travel services. We use your details to respond to enquiries, share tour itineraries, provide package information, process booking requests and communicate important information regarding your upcoming trips.

Your information may also be used to coordinate transportation, accommodation, meals, field excursions, local guides and other services included in your selected tour package.

Additionally, we may use your contact information to send booking confirmations, payment-related communications, itinerary updates, travel instructions, schedule changes and important notifications. Where permitted by applicable law, we may occasionally share information about upcoming birding tours, wildlife photography opportunities and new destinations.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to improve your browsing experience and understand how visitors interact with our website.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites remember certain information and preferences. They may be used to understand visitor behaviour, analyse website traffic, improve website functionality and maintain a better browsing experience.

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling certain cookies may affect some website features or functionality.

Birding365 respects your privacy and does not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their independent marketing purposes.

However, providing travel and tour services may require us to share certain necessary information with trusted third-party service providers. These may include airlines, hotels, accommodation providers, transportation companies, local tour operators, professional birding guides, travel coordinators and other service partners involved in organising your trip.

We may also disclose information when required by applicable laws, government authorities, regulatory bodies or legal proceedings. We aim to share only the information reasonably necessary for the relevant service or legal requirement.

If you make a payment towards a Birding365 tour package or travel service, your payment may be processed through an authorised payment service provider or banking institution.

Depending on the payment method, you may be required to provide payment-related information directly to the relevant payment provider. Such transactions may be governed by the privacy policies and security practices of those providers.

Birding365 does not intend to collect or store complete payment card details, banking passwords, PINs or other confidential financial authentication information through its website.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the personal information entrusted to us against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, misuse or loss.

Access to personal information is intended to be limited to authorised personnel and relevant service partners who need the information to perform their responsibilities.

Although we make reasonable efforts to safeguard your information, no website, internet transmission or electronic storage system can guarantee absolute security. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that information transmitted over the internet will always remain completely secure.

Birding365 retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including managing enquiries, maintaining booking records, arranging travel services, resolving disputes and meeting applicable legal or regulatory obligations.

Once personal information is no longer required, we will take reasonable steps to securely delete, anonymise or otherwise dispose of it, subject to applicable record-retention requirements.

You may contact Birding365 to request information about the personal details we hold about you. Subject to applicable laws, you may request access to, correction of or deletion of your personal information.

You may also request that we stop sending promotional communications to your email address or telephone number. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent, subject to applicable legal requirements and any consequences for services that depend on the information.

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, travel resources, social media platforms or other external services.

These websites operate independently and may have their own privacy policies, cookies and data collection practices. Birding365 does not control the privacy practices or content of external websites. We encourage visitors to review the privacy policies of third-party websites before providing their personal information.

As Birding365 organises birding and wildlife photography tours that may involve domestic and international destinations, certain personal information may need to be shared with service providers located outside India.

This may be necessary for arranging accommodation, transportation, local guides, travel reservations and other services associated with your selected destination. Where applicable, we take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information is handled in accordance with relevant data protection requirements.

Our website and travel services are not specifically directed towards children for independent use. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children without appropriate parental or legal guardian involvement where required by applicable law.

If we become aware that personal information has been collected from a child inappropriately, we will take reasonable steps to address the matter in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Birding365 reserves the right to update, modify or revise this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our business operations, website functionality, travel services or applicable legal requirements.

Any revised policy will be published on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage visitors and customers to review this page periodically to remain informed about how their personal information is handled.

If you have any questions, concerns, requests or complaints regarding this Privacy Policy or the handling of your personal information, you can contact our team using the details below.
