Our role under GDPR and UK GDPR

Safari Portal may act in different roles depending on the type of data and the purpose of processing.

When Safari Portal collects information for its own business purposes — for example, website analytics, sales inquiries, account administration, billing, marketing, customer communications, or support — Safari Portal acts as a data controller.

When a customer uses Safari Portal to upload, store, manage, or share personal data about travelers, guests, suppliers, or other individuals, the customer is generally the data controller and Safari Portal acts as a data processor. In that role, Safari Portal processes customer personal data only to provide, secure, maintain, support, and improve the Safari Portal services, and in accordance with the customer’s documented instructions and applicable law.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that they have the appropriate lawful basis, notices, consents, and authorizations required for the personal data they submit to Safari Portal.

  • Data Processing Agreement

    Safari Portal offers a Data Processing Agreement for customers that require one under GDPR, UK GDPR, or other applicable data protection laws.

  • Sub-processors

    Safari Portal uses carefully selected third-party providers to host, secure, maintain, support, and operate the Services.

    A sub-processor is a third party that processes customer personal data on Safari Portal’s behalf in connection with the Services. Safari Portal remains responsible for its sub-processors as required by our DPA and applicable data protection laws.

    Safari Portal maintains a current list of authorized sub-processors below.

  • International data transfers

    Safari Portal LLC is based in the United States. Depending on how a customer uses the Services, personal data may be processed in the United States or other countries where Safari Portal, its personnel, or its approved sub-processors operate.

    Where personal data subject to GDPR, UK GDPR, Swiss data protection law, or other applicable data protection laws is transferred internationally, Safari Portal uses appropriate transfer safeguards where required. These may include:

    • the European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses

    • the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses

    • the UK International Data Transfer Agreement

    • adequacy decisions or adequacy regulations

    • valid Data Privacy Framework certifications, where applicable

    • contractual, technical, and organizational supplementary measures

    Safari Portal does not claim reliance on any transfer mechanism unless the relevant transfer is covered by that mechanism.

  • Security overview

    Safari Portal maintains administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, availability, and resilience of the Services and personal data.

    These safeguards include:

    • encryption in transit using HTTPS/TLS

    • multi-factor authentication for administrative and cloud access

    • backup and disaster recovery practices

    • secure software development practices

  • Customer-enabled integrations

    Safari Portal may allow customers to enable third-party integrations, connectors, payment providers, insurance providers, automation tools, or other external services.

    Where a customer chooses to enable or connect a third-party service, that provider may process personal data under its own terms, privacy policy, and data protection terms. Depending on the integration, the provider may act as:

    • an independent controller

    • a processor engaged by the customer

    • a customer-enabled third-party provider

    • a sub-processor, depending on configuration

    Customers are responsible for reviewing and approving the third-party integrations they enable and ensuring their use complies with applicable law.

    Examples of customer-enabled or customer-directed integrations may include payment providers, automation tools, Google services, insurance providers, supplier payment providers, and other services selected by the customer.

  • Hosting and infrastructure

    Safari Portal uses Amazon Web Services for primary cloud infrastructure, including hosting, database services, object storage, backups, monitoring, logging, and related infrastructure services.

    Customer data may include account data, itinerary data, traveler and guest information, uploaded files, travel documents, media files, transaction records, system metadata, and logs.

    Data residency commitment: Unless expressly agreed in writing, Safari Portal does not guarantee that customer personal data will remain exclusively within a specific country or region.

  • Data deletion, export, and retention

    Customers may access, export, or retrieve personal data through available Safari Portal functionality or by contacting Safari Portal support.

    Upon termination or expiration of the Services, Safari Portal will delete or return customer personal data in accordance with the applicable agreement, DPA, customer instructions, and legal requirements.

    Some data may be retained for a limited period where required for legal, tax, accounting, billing, security, fraud prevention, backup, dispute resolution, or compliance purposes.

    Backup data may remain in encrypted backups or disaster recovery systems until the applicable backup retention cycle expires
