We at PrivateSantoriniTours.com respect your concerns about privacy and value the relationship we have with you. This Privacy Statement describes the types of personal information collected by PrivateSantoriniTours.com on this website.

We also tell you how you can contact us or answer any questions you may have.
Information We Collect About You and How We Use It
You may choose to provide personal information (such as your name, telephone number and e-mail address) through our website. Here are the ways in which you may provide the information and the types of information you may submit. In addition to the uses described below we may also use the information you submit for internal purposes. We also tell you how we may use the information.
Contact Us Form and Email Links
If you communicate with us through the “Send us a request for this tour” form on our website, or direct email links throughout the site, we may ask you for information such as your name, email address and telephone number so we can respond to your questions and comments. We also may use the information you provide to evaluate the quality of our products and services and to communicate with you about our products and services.
Your privacy is very important to us.
When personal information supplied voluntarily by you is collected, it is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption. SSL is the standard security technology for establishing an encrypted link between a web server and a browser. This link ensures that all data passed between the web server and browsers remain private. SSL is an industry standard and is used by most websites in the protection of online transactions with customers. You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the web page. When you click on the lock icon you can view our SSL certificate which allows a secure connection to be created. While we use SSL encryption to protect personal information provided by you and transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Access to personally identifiable information is limited to only certain staff members who have a job-related reason to have access.
Information We Collect by Automated Means
We collect certain information by automated means when you visit our website, such as how many users visited our site and the pages accessed. By collecting this information, we learn how to best tailor our website to our visitors. We collect this information through various means such as “cookies,” and IP addresses as explained below.
Google Analytics and Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting
Google Analytics is a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google utilizes the data collected to track and examine the use of this website, to prepare reports on its activities and share them with other Google services. Google may use the personal data collected (cookie and usage data) to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network. We use Google Analytics coupled with Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting tools to monitor our website traffic and provide some basic demographic information about our visitors, such as general location, age group, gender, interests/affinity, and where our visitors are coming from, what pages are being visited, when and how frequently. We use this information so that we may better understand our customers’ needs to help us create the most meaningful content possible and an overall better online experience for our website visitors.
Google Adwords and Google Adwords Remarketing
PrivateSantoriniTours.com does not use Google Adwords to promote our business online through paid search advertising.
Google Analytics Opt-out
To provide website visitors the ability to prevent their data from being used by Google Analytics, Google has developed an Analytics opt-out browser add-on for the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, dc.js).
If you would like to opt-out, you can download and install the add-on for your web browser. This add-on is designed to be compatible with Chrome, Internet Explorer 8-11, Safari, Firefox and Opera. In order to function, the opt-out add-on must be able to load and execute properly on your browser. Learn more about about the opt-out and how to properly install the browser add-on here.

An IP address is a unique identifier that certain electronic devices use to identify and communicate with each other on the Internet. When you visit our website, we may view the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet.
