1. Overview

Gozy Travel ("we", "us", "our") operates gozytravel.com as a travel search and comparison platform. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our website.

We operate in compliance with the Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL), issued by Royal Decree No. M/19 dated 1443/02/09 AH, and applicable international privacy regulations including GDPR principles for users located in relevant jurisdictions.

Gozy Travel does not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not process financial transactions and do not store payment information.

4. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our platform effectively.

Essential Cookies

Required for the website to function (language preferences, session management, dark/light mode). Cannot be disabled.

Analytics Cookies

Collect anonymized usage statistics to help us understand how visitors use our platform. You can opt out via browser settings.

Affiliate/Marketing Cookies

Set by affiliate partners to track referrals and attribute conversions when you book through our links. These earn us a commission at no cost to you.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect platform functionality.

5. Analytics

We use analytics services to understand platform usage. These services collect anonymized, aggregated data including page views, session duration, and interaction patterns. Analytics data is used solely to improve the user experience and is not used to identify individual users.

Analytics systems may collect non-sensitive usage data such as search queries (destination names, date ranges), device type, and general location. This data is processed in aggregate form.

6. Affiliate Tracking Disclosure

Gozy Travel participates in affiliate marketing programs. When you click a booking link on our platform and complete a purchase on a provider's website, affiliate tracking cookies or pixels may be set by the provider's affiliate network to attribute the referral and pay us a commission.

  • Affiliate tracking is performed by the third-party provider's systems, not by Gozy Travel.
  • These systems may collect your IP address and browser data for attribution purposes.
  • Commission earnings do not affect the price you pay for any service.
  • Affiliate relationships do not bias our search results — we display options based on availability and relevance.
We are transparent about our affiliate model. We earn commissions when you book through our links, but our comparison results are not paid placements.

7. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We may share limited data in the following circumstances:

  • Service Providers: Third-party vendors who help us operate our platform (analytics providers, email service providers) under strict data processing agreements.
  • Legal Compliance: When required by Saudi law, court order, or regulatory authority.
  • Business Transfer: In the event of a merger or acquisition, subject to continued privacy protections.
  • Affiliate Partners: Anonymized referral data only, through affiliate tracking systems as described above.

8. Your Rights (Saudi PDPL)

Under the Saudi Personal Data Protection Law, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right to Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Right to Correction: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Right to Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal retention requirements.
  • Right to Object: Object to processing of your data for marketing purposes.
  • Right to Data Portability: Request your data in a portable format where technically feasible.
  • Right to Withdraw Consent: Withdraw consent for newsletter subscriptions at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@gozytravel.com with your request. We will respond within 30 days in accordance with PDPL requirements.

9. Data Retention

  • Newsletter subscriber data: Retained until you unsubscribe.
  • Contact form submissions: Retained for up to 12 months, then deleted.
  • Analytics data: Anonymized and aggregated, retained for up to 24 months.
  • Cookie data: Session cookies expire when you close your browser; persistent cookies expire per their set duration.

10. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our website uses HTTPS encryption for all data transmission.

Since we do not store payment information or process bookings, the risk profile of data we hold is limited to usage and contact data.
