THE SUMMARY
We will not ask you for information that does not have a purpose and we will not require information to be disclosed that is not absolutely necessary. We will not sell your personally identifiable information to others. Your privacy is very important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used.
WHAT TYPE OF DATA WE COLLECT AND WHY
TravelMake.com and its affiliate partners may include information about your visit in collective or aggregated data that does not identify you specifically. For example, we may tell our advertisers the number of website visitors or the most popular vacation destinations.
Our server recognizes domain names and the pages visited. This data is gathered in an aggregate manner for quality control and improvement of our website. Your name, email address, physical address, phone and fax number, and credit card number, expiration date and billing address are necessary to ensure we are able to make and confirm your reservation. We do not share this personal information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete your reservation or product order.
Your contact information is needed in order to notify you in the event of any processing difficulties or unforeseen circumstances fulfilling your reservation or product order. In some cases, paper tickets may need to be mailed to you. The more easily we can contact you, the better we can serve you. TravelMake.com and its affiliate partners will both use the information you provide about yourself in order to make our websites as customer friendly as possible. We want to know you to better serve you, but do not want to invade your life. We may ask you for more information about your travel interests. In the future this information may be used to help us make more applicable travel recommendations. However, this information will always be optional.

SHARING INFORMATION
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may be required by law to disclose information you have provided in obtaining our travel products or services. We may also disclose information against someone who poses a threat to our interests (such as customer fraud) or whose activities could bring harm to others. In addition, it may be necessary for us to provide customer information to third parties, such as credit card companies, for the purpose of resolving disputes that arise in the normal course of business.
THIRD PARTY INTERMEDIARIES
Some of our affiliate partner companies use third party credit card processing services and bank check processing companies to bill users for goods and services. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
OUR SUPPLIERS

In addition, these travel suppliers may also contact you as necessary to obtain additional information about your confirmed reservation. We may occasionally share aggregated information with our service providers.
