Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 27, 2026

Safari Gurus Ventures ("Safari Gurus Ventures", "we", "us" or "our") is a safari tour operator based in Nanyuki, Kenya, arranging tailor-made safari experiences across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect through this website (https://www.safarigurusventures.com), why we collect it, and the choices you have. By using this website or submitting an enquiry to us, you agree to the practices described below.

1. Information We Collect

We keep the information we collect to the minimum needed to respond to your safari enquiry and run this website. We collect information in two ways:

a) Information you give us directly

When you submit our contact / safari enquiry form, we collect:

• First and last name
• Email address
• Country
• Safari type / area of interest (optional)
• Your message, including any trip details, dates or preferences you choose to share

You may also give us information when you email or WhatsApp us directly, or call one of the phone numbers listed on this site.

b) Information collected automatically

Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically log basic technical information when you visit — such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed and referring website — for security and performance purposes. This site does not currently run analytics or advertising tracking scripts. If that changes, this policy will be updated to reflect it (see "Cookies & Tracking" below).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information collected through the enquiry form solely to:

• Respond to your safari enquiry and correspond with you about your trip
• Prepare itineraries, quotes and travel recommendations
• Understand demand for different safari types and destinations, so we can improve our offering
• Meet legal, accounting or regulatory requirements where applicable

We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling, and we do not sell your personal information.

3. Our Legal Basis for Processing

Depending on where you are located, we rely on one or more of the following legal grounds to process your information:

• Consent — you provide your details voluntarily when submitting the enquiry form.
• Legitimate interest — to respond to enquiries and operate our business as a tour operator.
• Performance of a contract — once you engage us to plan or book a safari, we process information necessary to deliver that service.
• Legal obligation — where required for tax, accounting or regulatory purposes.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information. We may share it only with:

• Service providers who help us operate this website and send email, such as our SMTP/email delivery provider, strictly to deliver your enquiry to our team.
• Trusted local partners (e.g. lodges, camps, ground transport operators or fellow tour operators) — but only where necessary to arrange the specific safari you have enquired about or booked, and only with the details needed for that purpose.
• Authorities, where required by law, regulation, legal process or governmental request.

5. Cookies & Tracking

This website does not currently set analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. It may use essential, session-based technical storage strictly required for the site to function (for example, remembering your place while browsing). If we add analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) or marketing pixels in future, we will update this section and, where required by law, present a cookie consent banner before any non-essential cookies are set.

6. Data Retention

We retain enquiry details for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to you, plan or deliver a booked safari, and to keep records for accounting and legal purposes afterwards. If you ask us to delete your information and we have no ongoing legal or contractual reason to keep it, we will do so within a reasonable time.

7. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the personal information you share with us, including transmitting enquiry form submissions over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Ask us what personal information we hold about you
• Request that we correct inaccurate information
• Request that we delete your information
• Object to or restrict certain processing
• Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in the "Contact Us" section below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

9. Children's Privacy

This website and our services are intended for adults planning travel. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.

10. Third-Party Links

Our website may link to third-party sites (for example, WhatsApp or social media platforms). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third-party sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before sharing any personal information with them.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will always show when it was last revised. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
