Quest Travel Adventures LLC Privacy Policy
Our Practices Regarding Privacy
Your privacy rights are important to us. Quest Travel Adventures LLC and our affiliated companies are committed to respecting your online privacy and making sure that any information you share with us by using our web sites is properly protected. We have established this Quest Travel Adventures LLC Privacy Policy so you know the importance we place on your privacy and so you can understand how we collect and use information collected from you when you visit our website or submit any personally identifiable information to us. This policy describes our overall privacy practices regarding information we collect on our web sites and through other Internet mediums. Our policy does not apply to the practices of companies that we do not own or control.
Website Data
When you visit our website, we collect information on the efficiency and working of our site. The types of information your browser or Internet session automatically sends us each time you visit one of our sites, which we automatically collect, includes:
• Your browser, e.g., Safari, Chrome, Edge, Firefox
• Your Internet domain, e.g., Gmail, Comcast, Bellsouth
• Your computer's operating system, e.g., Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, Linux.
• Your navigation path, i.e., the URLs of where you come to our site from, which of our pages you visit, and where you go as you leave.
• Our IP address
This information lets us see how users find our sites, and it tells us which pages users visit most frequently so we can make our Web sites more useful. We keep this information for an indefinite amount of time to improve the operation of our site and to provide better services to our users.
Cookies
Our websites use cookies (small files containing program code that reside on your computer), to provide usage statistics about our web site, and to understand where visitors learn about our web site. We also may use cookies to simplify the re-entering of your data. You can adjust your browser settings to opt out of the use of cookies by having your browser disable cookies. Look for the cookie options in your browser in the Options or Preferences menu.
Contact Information
In addition to the data that your browser or Internet session sends us automatically, we may also collect personal data only as needed for us to deliver information about our products, services, and special offers. Your personal data includes information such as:
• Name
• Address
• Telephone number
• Date of birth
• Email address
• Other data collected that would directly or indirectly identify you
What information we collect about you
Much of what you likely consider personal data is collected directly from you when you:
(1) create an account or purchase any of our Services (ex: billing information, including name, address, phone number);
(2) request assistance from sales team
(3) complete contact forms or request newsletters or other information from us (ex: email); or
(4) participate in contests and surveys or participate in activities we promote that might require information about you.
How we use information we collect
We strongly believe in both minimizing the data we collect and limiting its use and purpose to only that (1) for which we have been given permission, (2) as necessary to deliver the Services you purchase or interact with, or (3) as we might be required or permitted for legal compliance or other lawful purposes.
How we store, secure and retain information we collect
We use data hosting service providers in the United States to host the information we collect, and we use technical measures to secure your data. While we implement safeguards designed to protect your information, no security system is impenetrable and due to the inherent nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that data, during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, is absolutely safe from intrusion by others. If you have not opted out of its use, we may share it with our data licensees, including our advertising clients and their vendors, and other advertising partners. How long we keep information we collect about you depends on the type of information. We follow generally accepted standards to store and protect the personal data we collect, both during transmission and once received and stored. We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to provide the Services you have requested and thereafter for a variety of legitimate legal or business purposes.
‘Do Not Track’ notifications
Some browsers have incorporated "Do Not Track" (DNT) features that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret the DNT signal, our Services do not currently respond to browser DNT signals. You can use the range of other tools we provide to control data collection and use, including the ability to opt out of receiving marketing from us as described above.
Opt-Out, Your Choices and Changing Information

The cookies contain a range of URLs (Web addresses) for which they are valid. When the browser encounters those URLs again, it sends those specific cookies to the Web server. For example, if a user's ID were stored as a cookie, it would save that person from typing in the same information all over again when accessing that service for the second and subsequent time during the same browser session. You can opt out of the use of cookies by having your browser disable cookies or warn you before accepting a cookie. Look for the cookie options in your browser in the Options or Preferences menu.
