Privacy Policy

Effective date: 6 November 2026

This policy explains what personal data Holiday Vistas (holidayvistas.com) collects, why we collect it, and the choices you have. Holiday Vistas is run by Sleek Digital Agency, based in Malaysia. You can reach us at support@holidayvistas.com.

What we collect

Newsletter signup. When you subscribe, you give us your first name and email address. We use double opt-in. We send you a confirmation email, and we add you to our list only after you click the confirm button.

Email you send us. If you write to an author or to support@holidayvistas.com, we keep your message and your address so we can reply.

Usage data. Like most websites, we collect basic visit data. This includes pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type, and referring site. We collect it through Google Analytics, set up with Google Site Kit.

Cookies. Our analytics and some partner links set cookies. See the cookies section below.

We do not ask for payment details. We do not sell anything on this site. You book trips, tours and hotels on our partners' websites.

How we use your data

  • To send you the newsletter you asked for
  • To reply to your emails
  • To understand which articles help readers and to improve the site
  • To keep the site secure and working

We do not sell your personal data.

Our legal basis

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we rely on your consent for newsletter emails and non-essential cookies. We rely on our legitimate interest in running and improving the site for basic analytics and security.

Who we share data with

These providers process data on our behalf:

  • Mailjet (Sinch) sends our newsletter and stores our subscriber list.
  • Google Analytics reports on site traffic.
  • Hostinger hosts the website.

We do not share your data with anyone else, except where the law requires it.

Affiliate links

Some links on this site are affiliate links to Viator, Agoda and GoWithGuide. If you click one and make a booking, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. When you click, you leave our site. That partner then handles your data under its own privacy policy. Partners may set their own cookies. Read how we handle affiliate relationships on our About Us page.

Cookies

Cookies are small files stored in your browser. We use them for analytics. Affiliate partners may set cookies once you click through to their sites. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking them does not stop you from reading our articles.

How long we keep your data

  • Newsletter data stays until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it.
  • Emails you send us stay for up to 24 months.
  • Analytics data follows the retention period set in Google Analytics.

Your choices and rights

You can unsubscribe at any time with the link in every newsletter. You can also ask us to access, correct or delete the personal data we hold about you. Email support@holidayvistas.com and we will reply within 30 days.

Depending on where you live, you may have extra rights.

  • Malaysia: the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 gives you the right to access and correct your data.
  • European Economic Area and United Kingdom: you can also object to processing, ask us to restrict it, request a copy of your data, withdraw consent at any time, and complain to your local data protection authority.
  • California: you can ask what personal information we collect and ask us to delete it. We do not sell personal information.

Children

This site is for adults planning travel. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 16. If you believe a child has given us their data, email us and we will delete it.

International transfers

Our providers may process data in countries other than your own, including the United States and the European Union. We choose providers that protect data under recognised safeguards.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your data. No website can promise complete security.

Changes to this policy

We update this page when our practices change. The effective date at the top shows the latest version.
