When you request services from us or access our website, you consent to our collection, retention and use of your personal information in the manner described in this policy.

This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of Personal Information we receive through the following collection channels:

  • Our website, including but not limited to www.redsandscampers.com
  • Any verified RedSands Campers social media page
  • By any other means through which an individual provides personal information to RedSands Campers, including physically or electronically.

The protection of your personal information is important to RedSands Campers

The personal information we collect and hold is what is reasonably necessary for our business functions and activities. Depending on the nature of your dealings with us, we may collect and hold additional personal information. For example, if you have subscribed to our newsletter via the online form available on our website, we will only retain your name and email address. However, if you hire a vehicle from us, then we will require additional personal information.

You can visit our website without providing personal details. Wherever practicable, we will enable you to deal with us anonymously or pseudonymously, however, in many cases it is not practicable to interact in this way.

If you choose not to provide some of your personal details, this may prevent us from providing our services to you or limit our ability to provide the level of service you would normally expect from us.

What personal information does RedSands Campers collect and hold?

We may collect personal information from you, your travel agent or any other organisation involved in providing our services to you.  You may provide us with personal information about yourself or others each time you contact us by letter, e-mail, electronic message or web enquiry form.

The personal information we may collect includes:

  • Contact information such as your name, email address, residential address, telephone numbers;
  • Date of birth;
  • Country of residence;
  • Drivers licence details, including but not limited to number and country of issue;
  • Rental details, including dates, times and locations of vehicle pick up and drop off;
  • Rental preferences, including vehicle type;
  • Credit card details;
  • Local address, if holidaying;
  • Your location, usage and servicing of your vehicle, your speed, fuel consumption, driving behaviour and distances travelled;
  • Vehicle damage information;
  • Testimonials about our products or services;
  • Complaint details;
  • Whether you have a connection with others whose personal information we may collect or hold, for example family members who may be existing clients;
  • What, how and when you have hired from us or have expressed an interest in hiring from us;
  • the contact details of third parties. If you are asked to provide details about other people, please ensure that these individuals are happy for their details to be given to us and used for the purposes set out in this policy (which may include using their details for marketing purposes); and
  • Your stated or likely preferences, for example whether you may be interested in particular products or promotions.

How does RedSands Campers collect and hold personal information?

Collection of personal information occurs when:

  • You register with us, for example when you submit a booking request or quotation, subscribe to our newsletter, submit a contact form, request itinerary information or contact us by physical or electronic means; and
  • You take part in our testimonials and surveys.

We may also collect personal information about you by accessing data from other sources and then analysing that data together with the information we already hold about you in order to learn more about your likely preferences and interests. When you visit our websites, social media pages or mobile applications or click on our advertisements on the online media of other companies, we may collect information about you using technology which is not apparent to you, for example “cookies”.

Most of the personal information we collect and hold about you is from your direct dealings with us. We may sometimes collect your personal information other than from you directly. For example from other suppliers who, in common with us, have a relationship with you.

The personal information you have provided to us will be kept confidential and secure and will not be accessible for unauthorised use, amendment or disclosure. Only relevant personnel that have been trained on our privacy policy will have access to such information. Information we hold is generally stored in secure computer servers in controlled facilities. These may be operated by us or by our service providers. In all cases, we have rigorous information security requirements aimed at eliminating risks of unauthorised access to, and loss, misuse or wrongful alteration of, personal information.

  • For the purposes for which it was collected (as advised in this Privacy Policy);
  • For the purposes stated in a privacy collection statement on a particular collection channel;
