Privacy Policy

Last updated: 28 August 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how SummerSunHolidays.co.uk collects, uses and protects personal information when you visit or interact with our website.

SummerSunHolidays.co.uk is a holiday information, discovery and affiliate website. We help visitors explore holiday destinations, hotels, all-inclusive holidays, family holidays, cruises, city breaks and other travel options.

We do not normally take holiday bookings or payments ourselves. When you choose to view or book an offer, you may be redirected to a third-party travel provider, tour operator, airline, hotel, cruise company or other travel website.

1. Who We Are

SummerSunHolidays.co.uk is operated by:

[INSERT YOUR NAME OR BUSINESS / COMPANY NAME]
Website: https://summersunholidays.co.uk/
Privacy enquiries: [INSERT YOUR CONTACT EMAIL ADDRESS]

For the personal information that we collect and control through this website, we are the data controller for the purposes of applicable UK data protection law.

2. Information We May Collect

Depending on how you use our website, we may collect or receive limited information such as:

• your IP address;
• browser type and device information;
• pages you visit and how you interact with the website;
• referring pages or websites;
• approximate location information derived from technical data;
• cookie and consent preferences;
• affiliate referral information;
• information you voluntarily provide when contacting us; and
• technical information needed for website security, fraud prevention and troubleshooting.

We do not normally ask you to provide payment card details, passport information or other information required to complete a holiday booking because bookings are completed directly with third-party travel providers.

3. How We Use Your Information

We may use information collected through the website to:

• operate, maintain and secure SummerSunHolidays.co.uk;
• display and improve our holiday information and website content;
• understand how visitors use our website;
• measure website performance;
• identify and resolve technical problems;
• respond to enquiries you send to us;
• remember your privacy and cookie choices;
• measure referrals made through affiliate links where permitted; and
• protect the website against misuse, spam, fraud and security threats.

4. Our Lawful Bases for Using Personal Information

Under UK data protection law, we need a lawful basis for processing personal information.

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on:

• Consent – for example, where your consent is required before certain non-essential cookies or similar technologies are used.
• Legitimate interests – where necessary to operate, improve, protect and understand the performance of our website, provided those interests do not override your rights and freedoms.
• Legal obligations – where processing is necessary for us to comply with applicable law.

Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

SummerSunHolidays.co.uk may use cookies and similar technologies to make the website function correctly, remember choices, understand website usage and, where applicable, measure affiliate referrals.

Some cookies are strictly necessary for the operation and security of the website. Other cookies or similar technologies may require your consent.

Where consent is required by law, we aim not to activate non-essential cookies or similar technologies until you have made your choice through our cookie consent system.

You can change or withdraw your cookie choices using the cookie settings available on our website.

For more information, please read our Cookie Policy.

6. Analytics

We may use website analytics services to understand how visitors find and use SummerSunHolidays.co.uk.

Analytics information may include details such as pages visited, time spent on pages, general device information, approximate location, traffic source and website interactions.

Where the use of analytics cookies or similar technologies requires consent, they should only be used after you have provided the relevant consent through our cookie controls.

7. Affiliate Links and Travel Providers

Some links on SummerSunHolidays.co.uk are affiliate links. This means we may receive a commission if you follow one of these links and subsequently complete a qualifying booking or purchase. This does not normally increase the price you pay.

Affiliate links may contain identifiers that allow an affiliate network or travel provider to recognise that your visit originated from SummerSunHolidays.co.uk.

Depending on the technology used, an affiliate provider or network may use cookies or similar technologies to attribute a referral or booking. Where such technologies require consent on our website, they should be subject to our cookie consent controls.

When you click a link and leave SummerSunHolidays.co.uk, the destination website is operated by a separate organisation. That organisation is responsible for its own collection and use of your personal information.

You should read the privacy policy and cookie information provided by the travel company or other website before submitting personal or payment information to it.

For more information about our commercial relationships, please see our Affiliate Disclaimer.

8. Third-Party Websites

Our website contains links to third-party websites including travel companies, tour operators, accommodation providers, airlines, cruise companies and other travel-related services.

We do not control the privacy practices of independent third-party websites. Once you leave SummerSunHolidays.co.uk, the privacy policy and terms of the website you visit will apply.

9. Embedded Content

Pages on our website may contain content provided or embedded by third parties, such as videos, maps, images or other interactive content.

Third-party embedded content may behave in a similar way to visiting the third-party website directly and may collect technical information or use cookies or similar technologies.

Where legally required, non-essential embedded technologies should be subject to appropriate consent controls.

10. Contacting Us

If you contact us by email, contact form or another communication method, we may process the information you provide so that we can respond to your enquiry.

This could include your name, email address, the contents of your message and technical information associated with the communication.

We will not use information submitted through an enquiry to complete a holiday booking on your behalf unless this is expressly stated at the point of collection.

11. Who We May Share Information With

Where necessary, information may be processed by organisations that help us operate our website, such as:

• website hosting and infrastructure providers;
• website security and spam-prevention providers;
• analytics providers, where enabled;
• cookie consent and privacy-management providers;
• affiliate networks and travel partners where relevant to referral tracking;
• technical service providers; and
• professional advisers or authorities where required by law.

We do not sell lists of our visitors' personal information.

12. International Transfers

Some organisations that provide website, analytics, affiliate, hosting or other technology services may process information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally and UK data protection law requires safeguards to be in place, we expect the relevant transfer to be covered by an appropriate legal mechanism or other safeguard recognised under UK data protection law.

13. How Long We Keep Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including where necessary to meet legal, security, accounting or regulatory requirements.

Retention periods vary depending on the type of information. For example:

• information relating to enquiries may be retained for a reasonable period after the enquiry has been resolved;
• security and technical logs may be retained for a limited period for security, troubleshooting and fraud-prevention purposes;
• cookie preferences may be retained so that the website can remember your privacy choices; and
• analytics and affiliate information may be retained in accordance with the applicable service provider's retention settings and our requirements.

Information may be anonymised so that it no longer identifies an individual. Anonymised information may be retained for statistical or analytical purposes.

14. How We Protect Your Information

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no website, internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

15. Children's Privacy

SummerSunHolidays.co.uk contains information about family holidays, but the website is intended to be used by adults planning or researching travel.

We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information directly from children. If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can review the situation and take appropriate action.

16. Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on the circumstances and the processing involved, UK data protection law may give you rights including the right to:

• ask us for access to personal information we hold about you;
• ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information;
• ask us to erase your personal information in certain circumstances;
• ask us to restrict the processing of your information in certain circumstances;
• object to certain processing;
• receive certain information in a portable format where the right applies; and
• withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.

These rights are not absolute and may depend on the circumstances and applicable law.

To exercise your rights, please contact us using the privacy contact details provided at the beginning of this policy.

17. Complaints

If you have concerns about how we use your personal information, please contact us first so that we have an opportunity to investigate and respond.
