Travel to Russia is committed to ensuring our customers' privacy and security of all information collected. This Privacy & Security Policy outlines the information collection practices utilised by Travel to Russia, how that information is used and the choices you can make about the way the information you provide to us is collected and used.

Our commitment to data security

Your credit card details are protected while being transmitted over the Internet by the use of SSL encryption methods. Credit card details are only used to pay for accommodation booked through our service. These details are stored securely at all times, are not used for any other purpose and will never be provided to any unauthorised third parties.

The information we collect

When you make a booking via the Travel to Russia web site, we need to collect information about you to process the transaction and fulfil your order. This information includes, but is not limited to, details such as your name, your contact details (email, phone, fax) and your credit card details. When you submit a request via our email support forms, we also collect your name and email so that we may respond to your request or query as quickly as possible.

How we use the information

When you submit a booking request on Travel to Russia, we use the collected information in several ways:

• Personal identification and verification
• To complete your reservation
• To allow us to contact you for customer service, if required
• To make improvements to the Travel to Russia web site

In addition, your email address is collected to send you an email message confirming the reservation you transact online.

Like most Web sites, there is certain information we automatically track, including the URL that you just came from, which URL you go to next, the browser you are using and your IP address. This data is utilised to improve the services of Travel to Russia and does not include any personally identifying information.

Who we share your information with

We disclose your information to third parties (such as our hotels) only for the purpose of completing your transaction with us, providing the above services to you and for the purposes of associated administration. Travel to Russia provides the guest's name, telephone number and e-mail address for each booking to the relevant accommodation supplier to enable them to process the booking efficiently and contact you if necessary. We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.

Unless otherwise prohibited by law or our contractual obligations, we may disclose personal information if required to do so by law, court order, or as requested by a governmental or law enforcement authority, or in the good faith belief that disclosure is otherwise necessary or advisable. Such situations may include: to perform, maintain or enforce contracts with our customers; to protect the rights or properties of Travel to Russia, our business affiliates, our customers, or others; or when we have reason to believe that disclosing the information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be causing, or who may be threatening to cause, interference with or damage to our rights or properties, whether intentionally or otherwise; or when anyone else could be harmed by such activities.
