Sports Tour Advisor recognizes the importance of your privacy and your right to control personal information. We understand that providing personal information is an act of trust, and we are committed to safeguarding your privacy. Sports Tour Advisor will never sell, rent, or otherwise disclose your personal information, including your email address or mobile number, to any third party without your consent, except as outlined in this Privacy Policy. Unless you give us specific consent to act otherwise, the following policies will govern how Sports Tour Advisor handles the personal information you provide.

  • Geo-location coordinates
  • Unique identification number assigned to your mobile device (sometimes called a UDID)
  • Your contact list or address book

This information will only be collected if necessary for the functioning of the App and will be disclosed to you before downloading the App.

Sports Tour Advisor App

When you download or purchase the Sports Tour Advisor App, you do so through a third-party mobile application online store. You may be required to register with the mobile app store and be logged in before you can download or purchase the App. When downloading the App, the app provider will typically collect certain device and app-related information.

Our App sometimes sends push notifications or notices of interest sent out to your mobile device in the absence of a specific request. If a Sports Tour Advisor App uses push notifications, you are provided an opportunity to opt into receiving those push notifications. If you decline to accept push notifications, you will not receive push notifications, which means you may not receive the most current updates and features of the App.

Our App will collect precise information about the location of your mobile device, but you can opt-out by changing the settings on your mobile device. If you decline to share your location with the App, you may not receive the most accurate recommendations.

You have the right of election concerning how the App functions on your mobile device. You may be able to:

  • Manage push notifications by using your built-in mobile device settings and controls.
  • Manage location information by using your built-in mobile device settings and controls.
  • Block navigation to the Internet by turning off network access on the device.

Access to or availability of controls may vary depending on your device.

Children's Privacy

The App offered are not directed at children who are under 13 years of age. It is Sports Tour Advisor's policy to require that individuals downloading the App be 13 years of age or older.

Communication Preferences

If you do not want to receive emails from us with offers, news, and information, you can email your preference at support@sportstouradvisor.com, and we will remove you from the distribution list. All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers that are protected in secure facilities, including firewall protection, and located in those countries that form part of the European Economic Area or are considered to provide adequate protection for personal information under the European Union Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC).

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Sports Tour Advisor is committed to protecting your personal information. We will share your personal information only as described below and following practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Policy. We will not disclose your personally identifiable information to any third parties without your consent, except:

  • Where Sports Tour Advisor is required by law to disclose information to third parties.
  • Where the disclosure is necessary for the performance of our operations (e.g., mail delivery, hosting services, service operations, protecting us from fraud).
  • Sports Tour Advisor buys or sells subsidiaries or business units, in connection with a corporate transaction, such as a sale, merger, consolidation or asset sale, or an internal re-organization, or in the unlikely event of insolvency. If such a transaction or event requires the transfer of customer information, then that information would be one of the transferred assets but would remain subject to the commitments made in any pre-existing Privacy Policy or equivalent.

We also may share your personal information with third parties (i.e. agents or subcontractors) specifically engaged by Sports Tour Advisor to provide services to us, in which case we will require those parties to keep that information confidential and secure and to use it solely for the purpose of providing the specified services to us.

Companies and individuals registered in the Sports Tour Advisor Affiliate Program receive aggregate information about customers that they direct to Sports Tour Advisor through links on their Apps. No personally identifiable information is provided to affiliate members; the information collected from our affiliates is used strictly for the affiliate program and will not be used for general marketing purposes.

Sports Tour Advisor also provides analysis of our customers in the aggregate to prospective partners, advertisers, content distributors, a broadcaster, and other third parties. We do this so that our business partners and we can understand you better and so we can keep bringing you first-rate services. We may also disclose, on an anonymous basis, literal statements made by our Members. At no time, however, will we disclose personal information about specific customers.

Linked Apps are not under the control of Sports Tour Advisor, and we are not responsible for the conduct of companies linked to our App. Before disclosing your personal information on any other App, we advise you to examine its Terms and Conditions of use and privacy policy.

Please note that you have certain rights under the Data Protection Act 1998. You have the right to be told what personal information we hold about you, to correct errors in that information, and to prevent Sports Tour Advisor from using your personal information for direct marketing purposes. Should you wish to exercise these rights, or if you have any questions concerning the Sports Tour Advisor privacy policy, please use the contact details provided below.

Security and Prevention Against Loss, Misuse, or Alteration of Information

Sports Tour Advisor has implemented technology and security features, as well as strict internal guidelines, to safeguard the privacy of your personal information from unauthorized access or improper use. We will continue to enhance our security procedures as new technology becomes available.

For transmitting your personal information to us, we use a secure server. While we make every effort to ensure that your information is secure on our system, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

Your Sports Tour Advisor account information is password-protected for your privacy and security. You can play an important role in keeping your personal information secure by maintaining the confidentiality of your password used on the Sports Tour Advisor App. We recommend that you change your password from time to time for additional security. Please advise us immediately if there is any unauthorized use of your account by any other Internet user or any other breach of security.

Access authorization is granted only to staff of Sports Tour Advisor and to our agents or subcontractors if necessary for the performance of our operations or for them to provide services to us. Any information accessed by those agents or subcontractors is required to be kept confidential and secure and is not permitted to be used for any purpose except to provide their services to us.

Backups are run to prevent the loss of information, and our Internet servers are housed in secure facilities.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

From time to time, Sports Tour Advisor will review and may edit this policy in accordance with potential changes to our business and as required by law. Sports Tour Advisor reserves the right to change its Privacy Policy at any time. This Privacy Policy may be amended in accordance with our Terms and Conditions (of which this Privacy Policy forms part).
