1. Data controller
Arenal Deluxe Travel, located at San Carlos, Alajuela, Costa Rica, is responsible for processing personal information associated with requests received through this website. You can contact us at reservas@arenaldeluxetravel.com.
2. Information we may collect
We collect only the information you voluntarily provide when requesting a quote or contacting us.
- Name, email address, and phone number.
- Service date, origin, destination, and passenger count.
- Message, luggage information, and other details you choose to include to coordinate the transfer.
- Subsequent communications through WhatsApp, email, or phone.
- Technical and statistical website data, such as the page visited, browser, device, referrer, and approximate location derived from the connection.
3. How information is sent
The form prepares your request in your browser. When you choose WhatsApp or email, the information is transmitted through the selected service; the website does not directly store a copy of the form in its own database.
After the message is sent, the communication may remain in our WhatsApp or email accounts so we can respond to the quote and coordinate the service.
4. Purposes and legal basis
We process information to answer inquiries, prepare quotes, coordinate transfers, provide support before and after a service, maintain website security and operation, and comply with administrative or legal obligations.
Depending on the circumstances, processing is based on your consent when submitting a request, steps needed before entering into a service agreement, and compliance with applicable obligations.
5. Service providers and transfers
We may use providers that process information to deliver their services, including WhatsApp/Meta, email providers, and Vercel for hosting and web analytics. These providers may process data outside Costa Rica under their own policies and terms.
We do not sell personal information. We share it only when necessary to respond to your request, operate the website, protect rights, or comply with a legal obligation.
6. Analytics and cookies
We use Vercel Web Analytics to understand website performance and usage in aggregate. The current implementation does not set its own advertising cookies or use the quote form to build marketing profiles.
External services you open from this website may apply their own technologies and privacy policies.
7. Retention and security
We keep quote communications and related information only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the request, provide the service, maintain administrative records, and comply with legal obligations. Technical data is retained according to the analytics provider's configuration and terms.
We apply reasonable measures to limit access and protect information. However, no transmission or storage system can guarantee absolute security.
8. Your rights
You may request access, correction, updating, or deletion of your personal information and withdraw consent where applicable by emailing reservas@arenaldeluxetravel.com. We may request reasonable information to verify your identity before responding.
These rights are handled in accordance with Costa Rica's Law No. 8968 on the Protection of Individuals with regard to the Processing of Personal Data and its regulations.
9. Children
The website is not intended for minors to arrange services independently. If a request includes a minor's information, it must be submitted by their parent or legal guardian.
10. Changes and contact
We may update this policy to reflect operational or legal changes. The current version will be published on this page with its revision date. For privacy questions, email reservas@arenaldeluxetravel.com.
