Welcome to Travilox! This Privacy Policy explains how Travilox (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, shares, and protects your personal data when you visit or use our website, www.Travilox.com (the “Site”), and any related services.
We know that planning a trip means trusting us with personal details — and we don’t take that lightly. This policy applies to all visitors, users, and customers of Travilox, and it’s designed to comply with major privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and other applicable data protection regulations.
By using our Site, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you don’t agree, please don’t use our services — or reach out to us with your concerns at info@travilox.com.

We use your personal data to:
- Provide our services — process bookings, reservations, and travel itineraries
- Personalize your experience — recommend destinations, deals, and content tailored to your interests
- Process payments — securely handle transactions with our payment partners
- Communicate with you — send booking confirmations, customer support responses, and (with consent) marketing updates
- Improve our Site — analyze usage patterns to fix bugs, enhance features, and optimize performance

We only use your data for purposes that are compatible with why we collected it, or where we have a valid legal basis (such as your consent, contractual necessity, or legitimate business interest).
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
Travilox uses cookies and similar technologies to make your experience smoother and more relevant. These include:
- Necessary Cookies: Required for core Site functionality (e.g., keeping you logged in, securing checkout). These can’t be switched off.
- Performance Cookies: Help us understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it (e.g., page load times, error tracking).
- Functionality Cookies: Remember your preferences, such as language or currency settings.
- Advertising Cookies: Used to show you relevant travel offers on our Site and elsewhere, and to measure ad performance.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences: You can adjust or withdraw your cookie consent anytime through our cookie banner or your browser settings. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies, though this may affect some Site features. Where required by law, we’ll ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies.
Third-Party Sharing
We work with trusted partners to deliver our services, and we may share your data with:
- Booking & travel partners: airlines, hotels, tour operators, and car rental companies to fulfill your reservations
- Payment processors: to securely handle transactions
- Analytics providers: (e.g., Google Analytics) to help us understand Site performance
- Advertising partners: to deliver relevant ads and measure campaign effectiveness
- Legal & regulatory bodies: when required by law, court order, or to protect our rights and safety
We do not sell your personal data for money. Where “sharing” for advertising purposes may be considered a “sale” under laws like the CCPA, we give you the ability to opt out (see Section 6).
We require all third parties to respect the security of your data and treat it in accordance with applicable law.
User Rights & Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
- Delete your personal data (“right to be forgotten”)
- Restrict how we process your data
- Data portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
- Opt out of marketing communications and, where applicable, targeted advertising or data “sales”
- Object to certain types of processing, including profiling
How to Exercise Your Rights: Simply email us at info@travilox.com with your request. We’ll respond within the timeframe required by applicable law (typically 30 days). We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority if you believe we haven’t handled your data properly.
Data Retention
We keep your personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy:
- Newsletter & marketing data: retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion
- Booking & transaction records: retained for the duration required by tax, accounting, and legal obligations (typically up to 7 years)
- Account information: retained while your account is active, plus a reasonable period afterward
- Analytics data: typically retained for up to 26 months, often in aggregated or anonymized form
Once data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.
Security Measures
We take the protection of your data seriously and use a combination of technical and organizational safeguards, including:
- Encryption of data in transit (via HTTPS/TLS) and, where appropriate, at rest
- Access controls limiting who within Travilox can view sensitive data
- Regular security assessments to identify and address vulnerabilities
- Secure payment processing through PCI-DSS-compliant partners
While we work hard to protect your data, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. We encourage you to also take steps to protect your own information, such as using strong passwords.
International Transfers
Travilox operates globally, which means your data may be transferred to, stored, or processed in countries outside your own — including countries that may have different data protection laws.
When we transfer data internationally, we put safeguards in place, such as:
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission
- Adequacy decisions where the destination country is recognized as providing adequate data protection
- Other legally recognized transfer mechanisms as required
We ensure that any international transfer maintains a level of protection consistent with this policy and applicable law.
Children’s Privacy
Travilox is not intended for children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at info@travilox.com, and we will promptly investigate and delete such information as appropriate.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we do, we’ll post the revised policy on this page with an updated “Effective Date.”
We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Significant changes may also be communicated via email or a notice on our Site.
