This Privacy Policy explains what personal data Greece 24 Tours collects when you visit greece-24.com, why it is collected and what rights you have. The site recommends Greece tours and is run by Yannis Divramis, who decides how your data is used. This Privacy Policy is written in plain words, so that you can read it quickly.
Who Is Responsible for Your Data
The site address is https://greece-24.com. The person responsible for the data described in this Privacy Policy is Yannis Divramis, the owner and author of Greece 24 Tours. You can reach me through the contact page.
What Data the Site Collects
- Comments: When you leave a comment, the site collects the details in the comment form: your name, your email address, your website if you add one, and your comment. It also records your IP address and your browser type, which helps to find spam.
- Messages: If you write to me, I receive your name, your email address and the text of your message.
- Visit data: The site uses Google Analytics, added through the Google Site Kit plugin. It collects data such as the pages you open, the device and browser you use, and your approximate location.
- Booking clicks: When you click a booking box or a tour link, you leave this site and go to GetYourGuide. GetYourGuide records that the visit came from this site, so that it can pay me a commission.
The site does not take payments. I never see your card details, because GetYourGuide handles every booking and every payment.
Why the Data Is Used
I use data for clear purposes only. I show approved comments and reply to them. I answer your messages. I keep the site safe from spam. I learn which pages people read, so that I can improve them. I also receive reports from GetYourGuide about bookings that began on this site, which is how the site earns its commission.
I do not sell your personal data, and I do not use it to make automatic decisions about you.
Comments and Gravatar
A short code made from your email address, called a hash, can be sent to the Gravatar service, to check whether you have a profile picture there. The privacy policy of Gravatar is published by Automattic at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After a comment is approved, your profile picture shows next to it for everyone to see.
Cookies
The site and its partners use cookies. The Cookies Policy lists them, says how long they last and explains how to delete them. Please read it together with this Privacy Policy.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Certain pages show videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, and booking boxes from GetYourGuide. This embedded content behaves as if you had visited the other website. Those websites can collect data about you, set cookies and watch how you use their content. They follow their own privacy rules.
Who Receives Your Data
Your data goes only to the services that help run the site. They are the company that hosts the site, Google for visit statistics, maps and videos, GetYourGuide for bookings, and Gravatar for comment pictures. Certain of these companies process data outside Greece.
They follow their own safeguards for such transfers. This Privacy Policy lists every group that receives data. I share your data with the authorities only if the law requires it.
How Long Your Data Is Kept
- Comments: A comment and its details stay on the site until you ask me to remove them. This lets the site recognise your later comments.
- Messages: I keep a message as long as I need it to answer you and to follow up. After that I delete it.
- Visit data: Google Analytics keeps this data for the period set in the Google Analytics account, and then deletes it.
Your Rights Over Your Data
Under the data protection law of the European Union, this Privacy Policy gives you these rights:
- Access: you can ask for a copy of the data I hold about you.
- Correction: you can ask me to fix data that is wrong.
- Erasure: you can ask me to delete your data, except data I must keep for legal or security reasons.
- Limits and objection: you can ask me to limit how I use your data, or object to a use.
- Portability: you can ask for your data in a file that you can move to another service.
- Withdrawal: you can take back a consent you gave, at any time.
To use a right, write to me through the contact page and tell me which comment or message is yours. If you think I handled your data wrongly, you can complain to the Hellenic Data Protection Authority, which is the data protection authority of Greece.
Children
This Privacy Policy covers adult visitors. The site is written for adult travellers and is not aimed at children. I do not knowingly collect data from children. If you find a comment from a child that you want removed, tell me and I delete it.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
I update this Privacy Policy when the site or the law changes. The newest version always sits on this page. If you want to know how the site earns money and who writes it, read the About Us page.
