1. Who we are
Holicay ("Holicay", "we", "us", or "our") provides a travel content and commerce platform that enables creators and promoters to publish, promote, and sell digital itineraries and related services.
Data Controller: For personal data collected via our websites and services, Holicay is the controller. Where we process data on behalf of a creator (e.g., fulfilling a creator’s orders or communicating with their audience), we act as a processor.
2. Data we collect
Information you provide
- Account & profile data (name, email, password, photo, biography, brand details).
- Content you submit (texts, images, itineraries, reviews, messages).
- Payment & payout details (billing address, transaction info; payouts may require tax and ID information subject to applicable law).
- Communications with us (support requests, feedback, surveys).
Information we collect automatically
- Usage data (pages viewed, features used, links clicked, referring/exit pages, timestamps).
- Device & log data (IP address, browser type, operating system, language, crash logs).
- Approximate location (derived from IP for fraud prevention, analytics, and localization).
- Cookies and similar technologies (see Cookies).
Information from third parties
- Analytics and marketing partners (aggregated engagement metrics).
- Payment processors and anti‑fraud providers (to complete transactions and prevent abuse).
- Social or single sign‑on providers (if you choose to connect your account).
3. How we use data
- Provide and operate the Services (create and manage accounts, enable purchases, payouts, and promotions).
- Personalize content and recommendations; remember preferences.
- Measure performance, debug, and improve our Services.
- Prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents; enforce terms and policies.
- Communicate with you (service messages, updates, marketing with your consent or as permitted by law).
- Comply with legal obligations and protect our rights and users.
4. Legal bases
Where GDPR or similar laws apply, we process personal data under these legal bases:
- Performance of a contract (to provide the Services you requested).
- Legitimate interests (e.g., to secure and improve our Services). We balance these interests against your rights.
- Consent (e.g., certain cookies/marketing). You can withdraw consent at any time.
- Legal obligations (e.g., tax, accounting, regulatory compliance).
7. Data retention
We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary by data type and context.
8. International data transfers
We operate globally and may transfer personal data to countries that may not provide the same level of protection as your home jurisdiction. When we do, we use appropriate safeguards (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses) and take steps to protect your information.
9. Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to:
- Access, correct, update, or delete your personal data.
- Object to or restrict processing; withdraw consent.
- Data portability (receive a copy in a usable format).
- Opt out of targeted advertising, profiling, or certain disclosures.
To exercise rights, submit a request at /privacy-request or email [email protected]. We will verify your request consistent with applicable law. You may authorize an agent where permitted.
If we deny your request (where allowed by law), you may appeal by replying to our decision email with "Appeal" in the subject line.
10. U.S. state privacy disclosures
If you are a resident of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Virginia, or other U.S. states with privacy laws, you may have additional rights, including to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for targeted advertising. Use our privacy request portal or cookie settings to exercise those options.
Categories of personal information we may collect include identifiers, commercial information, internet activity, geolocation (approximate), and inferences. We collect these from you, your devices, and service providers, for the purposes described in this policy. We retain them as described above and disclose them to service providers and partners as needed to provide and improve our Services.
11. Children
Our Services are not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data to us, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps.
12. Security
We use technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data (encryption in transit, access controls, monitoring). No system is completely secure; please use strong, unique passwords and keep them confidential.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here and revise the "Last updated" date. If changes materially affect your rights, we will provide additional notice (e.g., email or prominent in‑product notice).
