  • In order to offer you the hospitality and leisure services in the accommodations that cooperate with our Travel Agency, which you have requested through your reservation.
  • In order to inform you on all our services and possible offers (e-mail marketing / sms marketing) as long as we have your respective consent.
  • In order to inform you of changes in our policy.

Legal basis of the processing
The legal bases of the processing are, as the case may be:

  • the legal interest of our company
  • our compliance with obligations arising from the law
  • the execution (preparation, operation, dissolution) of the contract between us
    your consent.

PD Security
The Travel Agency is committed to take all measures possible in order to protect your PD. For this reason we use a variety of security technologies and procedures for the protection of PD from unauthorized access and use. Please take into account, however, that no physical or electronic security system is completely safe. We cannot guarantee the complete security of our databases, nor can we guarantee that the information you provide to us via the Internet may not be intercepted. However, we are committed to continuing to review and improve our security policies and implement additional technical and organizational security measures, when such new technologies become available.
The transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure and may include the transmission of data to countries outside the European Union. This is due to the use of cloud solutions for web hosting, email hosting or exclusive software solutions which have been delivered to us via the Cloud. However, in any case we do not allow third parties to use your PD for their own purposes. While we will take all possible measures to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data which are transmitted to us. Consequently, any transfer of PD is at your own risk. Once PD are obtained, we take the necessary security measures in order to avoid unauthorized access.

Retention Period of PD:
The period of time which PD is retained at the Travel Agency is specified by the provisions of Greek legislation on the protection of the state’s interests and the Travel Agency’s maintenance policy on the protection of the legal interests of the company.
PD that are necessary for the conclusion or execution of the contract between us are kept throughout the duration of the contract and 5 years after its expiration. In case of claims, these data are kept until an irrevocable court decision is issued.

Transfer of PD:
We ensure that your PD is processed legally, which is restricted within the Travel Agency, while ensuring their confidentiality and we are committed to non-transfer your PD to third parties other than those to whom you have already given your consent, without our intervention. However, we may disclose your information to business associates, who act as processors on our behalf, to the extent that the aforementioned processing purposes are served and provided that, under our contractual commitments, confidentiality is maintained to protect PD, the service of the legal interests of our company and with the right to control them.
