Below is the same privacy policy style, but updated for TripViaMarrakech.com and adapted to your setup: bookings + PayPal payments + newsletter (Mailchimp). PayPal notes that it can act as an independent data controller for some processing, so it’s good practice to link to PayPal’s privacy statement. Mailchimp’s legal documents also describe how customer/contact data can be processed to provide the service, so it should be disclosed in your policy. ​

Who We Are

Welcome to Trip Via Marrakech! Our website address is https://tripviamarrakech.com. We organize travel experiences in Morocco (tours, excursions, itineraries, and travel-related services). We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information.

Bookings & Payments (PayPal)

When you place an order, request a booking, or pay for a service through our website, we may collect information needed to process your request (for example: your name, email, phone number, billing details, and booking details such as dates, number of travelers, and selected service). Payments on our website may be processed via PayPal. PayPal may process your personal data according to its own privacy policy and may act as a data controller for certain processing activities. You can review PayPal’s privacy statement here: https://www.paypal.com/en/legalhub/paypal/privacy-full . ​

Newsletter (Mailchimp)

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect the information you provide (typically your email address and, if provided, your name). We use this information to send updates, offers, and travel content. We use Mailchimp to manage our email marketing and send newsletters. Mailchimp may process subscriber data to provide the service and related features as described in its legal documentation. ​ You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email you receive from us.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form. We also collect the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website, please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to our website can download and extract location data from images on the site.

Cookies

Comments

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so you don’t have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

Login

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

Editing and Publishing

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, maps, articles, booking widgets, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves the same way as if you visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We may share limited data with service providers we use to operate this website and provide services to you, such as:
  • Payment processing providers (e.g., PayPal) to complete transactions.
  • [1]
  • Email marketing providers (e.g., Mailchimp) to manage newsletter subscriptions and send emails.
  • [2]
  • Security, spam detection, and website hosting providers (only what is necessary to run and protect the site).

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. For users who register on our website (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information. Booking/order records may be retained for customer support, accounting, and legal compliance purposes.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site, have made a booking, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, security, or accounting purposes. For newsletter emails, you can unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe link included in our emails.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. If you pay via PayPal, transaction-related data may be processed by PayPal systems according to PayPal’s privacy policy. ​ If you subscribe to the newsletter, subscriber data may be processed by Mailchimp as part of delivering email services. ​
