At Hurghada Star Tours, we are committed to protecting your personal data and ensuring a secure and trustworthy experience whenever you interact with our services. This Privacy and Policy page is intended to clearly explain how we collect, store, use, and protect your information when you visit our website, make a booking, or communicate with our team. By using our services, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
We collect personal information that is necessary to provide our services effectively. This includes details such as your full name, email address, phone number (including WhatsApp when applicable), nationality, accommodation location in Hurghada, travel dates, group size, tour preferences, and in some cases, passport numbers if required by authorities for domestic travel or historical site entry. We may also collect your payment preferences, though no sensitive payment details are stored directly by us.
Your information is used for a variety of important purposes. Most importantly, we use your data to confirm and manage your tour bookings, to communicate essential updates before and after your trip, and to assist with scheduling pickups, transport, or accommodation coordination. We may also use your data to respond to inquiries, resolve issues, and ensure a smooth, personalized travel experience.
We take privacy and security seriously. All personal data is handled responsibly and stored on secure servers with access restricted to authorized team members only. We do not sell, rent, or disclose your information to third parties for advertising purposes. Your information is only shared when it is necessary to complete a service, such as coordinating with licensed guides, drivers, or accommodation partners involved in your travel experience.
If you choose to make an online payment, you will be redirected to a secure, trusted payment gateway. Hurghada Star Tours does not directly store your credit or debit card information. Our payment processing partners meet high security and encryption standards to protect your financial data.

For advertising and analytics purposes, we may use third-party services such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, and other similar tools.

We respect your rights and will respond promptly to any data-related requests. You also have the right to withdraw consent to marketing communications or cookie tracking.
Our policy is designed to be fully compliant with international privacy laws and ad platform policies, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where applicable. We are transparent, honest, and responsible in how we handle your data, and we always put your privacy and security first.
This policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in legal requirements, best practices, or the way we deliver our services. If we make significant changes, we will clearly indicate the update on this page. We recommend checking this page periodically if you are a returning visitor.

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.
