Flightburst may disclose your personal information to third parties, such as airlines, hotels, and service providers, for the previously mentioned reasons of fulfilling your requests.
Per our interpretation of the law, if your employer or travel sponsor utilizes Flightburst for booking travel or associated services, the provider will be responsible for safeguarding your personal information and adhering to applicable regulations. As an intermediary, Flightburst cannot be held liable for the actions or oversights of the service providers.
At Flightburst, we may have to disclose your personal data to our local TMC partners and service providers in order to fulfill a contract between you, your company, or your travel sponsor. This could require the transfer of your information outside of your country, including the European Economic Area (EEA).
Some Service Providers may operate beyond the designated national boundaries, including the EEA. Thus, your personal data may need to be transferred in order to be processed. To ensure that your data is equally protected when transferred overseas, we employ one of the following safeguards:
There is a possibility that your information may be shared with a non-affiliated overseas recipient. This may occur in a location where local data protection laws do not offer recourse and the level of protection may differ from that in your jurisdiction. Please note that we cannot be held responsible for how these recipients handle, store, or process your personal information, as permitted by your local data protection laws.
Necessary precautions have been taken to protect your personal information and mitigate any potential risks of data loss, unauthorized entry, manipulation, or exposure.
In terms of site access management, we will implement control measures.
Ensure that only approved personnel are granted access to the facilities where data is processed and utilized.
System access control, or authorization, refers to the granting or denying of access to a computer system.
It is imperative to prevent unauthorized access to data processing systems.
Another crucial element of data security is managing access to confidential data. This requires establishing procedures and safeguards that limit the individuals who can access, modify, or wipe out specific data within a network. By properly handling data access, businesses can guarantee that only authorized parties have the ability to view and edit sensitive information.
It is imperative to restrict access to a data processing system to authorized individuals and ensure that they can only view the specific data they are permitted to. Equally important is maintaining the security of this data at all stages of processing, usage, and storage, preventing any unauthorized viewing, duplication, alteration, or deletion.
Ensuring confidentiality is of utmost importance.
Utilize data transmission tools to identify the appropriate destinations and recipients for data transfer.
Input control is essential for maintaining the proper functioning of the system. It is crucial to regulate the input to ensure system stability.
Ensure consistent monitoring and maintenance of audit logs to identify any input, alterations, or deletions made in the data processing system and by whom.
The process of overseeing and organizing orders is a key aspect of effective management.
Ensure that all customer-related personal information is processed strictly in accordance with their instructions.
Ensuring availability control is crucial for any business, as it guarantees the timely accessibility of necessary resources and services.
Ensure that data is protected from accidental loss or displacement.
It is crucial to promptly notify the customer in the event of any significant breaches in the aforementioned controls. In case of a breach involving confidential data, the customer will receive notification within 72 hours after confirming the incident.
We will only keep your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill its intended purposes, including meeting legal, accounting, or reporting obligations. To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider factors such as the type and amount of data, potential risks of unauthorized access or disclosure, specific processing purposes, and any available alternative methods to achieve those goals. Legal requirements are also taken into account.
As per regulations, it is necessary for us to store specific information related to our clients (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for a period of six to seven years after their customer status has ended. In case you require it, you can request for your personal data to be anonymised after a certain period of inactivity.
