3. Cookies and Analytics

Our website uses cookies to improve your browsing experience. We also use third-party tools such as Google Analytics to collect anonymised information about how users interact with our site. This helps us improve our website and marketing efforts.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though this may affect your experience on our site.

4. Marketing Communications

With your consent, we may use your contact details to send you promotional emails, special offers, or updates about our services.

You can opt out of these communications at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in our emails or by contacting us directly.

5. How We Store and Protect Your Information

Your information is stored securely in our systems, and we take all reasonable steps to protect it from loss, unauthorised access, or disclosure. We retain personal information only for as long as it is needed to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law.

When personal information is no longer required, we ensure it is safely deleted or anonymised.

Windcave, as our payment provider, also complies with New Zealand privacy laws and uses your data solely for lawful, authorised purposes.

7. Third-Party Booking Platforms

We partner with reputable third-party booking platforms (e.g., Viator, GetYourGuide, Everything New Zealand) to offer convenient booking options. These platforms collect personal information on our behalf and pass it to us for the purposes of delivering your booked experience.

We do not share your personal information back to these platforms or to any unrelated third parties. Please refer to the respective platforms’ privacy policies to understand how they manage your data.
