About this policy
This notice is written to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and provides information about how SecureMyBooking.com Limited collects, uses, shares and stores personal data in the capacity as a ‘Data Controller’.
What personal data do we process?
We collect and use relevant information about you to perform services as refund administrator and can include:
• your name, address, and contact details
• financial information such as bank account details
• where critical for providing the service requested, sensitive details such as information about your health

• to fulfil the legal and regulatory obligations
• to establish, exercise and defend our legal rights
• to fulfil a legitimate business interest, where such an interest does not conflict with or harm your data privacy rights.
On occasion, it may be necessary for us to process sensitive data such as health information to enable us to provide a service you have requested. We will only process such data if it is critical to providing that service and we will therefore not seek your explicit consent so to do. Should you object to providing your consent or should you later withdraw your consent, we shall not be able to provide you with the services to which that information relates.
Who do we share your information with?
The way ticket refund protection works means that your information may be shared with and used by a number of third parties in the insurance sector for example:

• reinsurers
• loss adjusters
• sub-contractors
• regulators
• law enforcement agencies
• fraud and crime prevention and detection agencies
