What we do with your data
Last updated: September 2026.
In one sentence: we collect only what we need to answer you and organise your day, we sell nothing to anyone, we send no advertising, and you can ask us to delete your data at any time with a single message.
Who is responsible
Siquijor BestOf Booking Services, a sole proprietorship registered with the Philippine Department of Trade and Industry under number 5108044, based in San Juan, province of Siquijor. Owner: Stephanie Jean Ontolan. Contact: Siquijorbestof@gmail.com or WhatsApp +63 960 310 2175.
What we collect, and why
When you fill in the form
- your first name, so we know who we are writing to;
- your WhatsApp number, the only channel we reply on;
- the name of your hotel, to arrange the morning pick-up;
- the date, the day trip and the number of guests, to check availability and work out the price;
- anything you add under “anything we should know” — allergies, young children, reduced mobility. That may touch on health: share only what you consider useful to the running of the day.
This data is used solely to answer your request and to deliver the service if you confirm it. The legal basis is the performance of pre-contractual steps taken at your request, then performance of the contract.
When you simply browse the page
Our audience measurement tool sets no cookies and follows nobody from site to site. It counts page views and traffic sources in aggregate. That is why this site shows no consent banner: there is nothing to consent to.
Your browser does, however, keep on your device only whatever you started typing into the form, so you find it again if you leave the page and come back. That information is never sent to us and disappears if you clear your browser data.
Who else has access
- The service that forwards the form by email, strictly for that transmission.
- Our host and our audience measurement tool, which handle technical data without identifying you.
- The local operators involved in your day — boat, guide, restaurant — to whom we pass on only what is necessary: a first name, a number of guests, a time, and any dietary or mobility constraint.
We do not sell, rent or exchange any data. No mailing list subscription is created without your explicit request.
Your data leaves Europe
We are based in the Philippines and our operators are located there. Your data is therefore processed outside the European Economic Area. For that reason we keep it to the strict minimum and hold nothing longer than necessary.
How long we keep it
- Request with no follow-up: twelve months, then deleted.
- Day actually delivered: three years after your trip, so we can help if you come back or if a dispute arises.
- WhatsApp conversations: they stay in the app, on our phones. You can ask us to delete a thread.
What you can require
You have the right to access your data, to have it corrected or erased, to object to its processing, to request restriction, and to receive a copy. Simply write to Siquijorbestof@gmail.com or send a WhatsApp message: we handle the request within thirty days, with no justification required.
If you live in the European Union and believe your rights are not being respected, you may contact the data protection authority in your country.
Security
The site is served over HTTPS only. No payment method is requested or stored: you pay on site, at the end of the day. We will never ask you, through any channel, for a card number, a password or a copy of your ID.
