information reasonably necessary to provide the requested service;

send confirmations, meeting information, safety information, and booking updates;
process cancellations, rescheduling, and refunds;
provide customer support;
maintain appropriate business and transaction records;
protect the security of our services;

4. Booking and Payment Providers
Direct online bookings may be processed using Tab and associated payment services or other booking/payment providers used by GuateRide.
These providers may receive information necessary to process bookings and payments and may process such information according to their own privacy policies.
Where card information is entered directly into a third-party payment environment, GuateRide does not receive or store the complete payment card details.
Bookings made through Viator, Tripadvisor, or other third-party platforms are also subject to those platforms' privacy practices.
5. Squarespace
Our website is built and hosted using Squarespace.
Squarespace may process technical and usage information necessary to host, secure, operate, and analyze the website.
6. Cookies
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies.
Necessary cookies may be used for essential website functionality and security.
Depending on our website configuration and your preferences, analytics or performance cookies may also be used to understand how visitors interact with the website.
Where available and appropriate, visitors can manage non-essential cookie preferences through our cookie consent tools.
7. Analytics and Advertising
We may introduce additional analytics or advertising technologies in the future, including services such as Google Analytics, Google Ads measurement, or Meta advertising technologies.
If additional tracking technologies are introduced, we will update this Privacy & Cookie Policy and our consent mechanisms as appropriate.
8. Sharing Information
We may share information where reasonably necessary with service providers supporting our operations, including providers of:
website hosting;
booking systems;
payment processing;
customer communications;
accounting;
professional advice; and
technology services.
We may also disclose information where required by applicable law or a competent authority.
GuateRide does not sell customer personal information as a business model.
9. International Processing
Some website, booking, payment, or technology providers may process information outside Guatemala.
Information may therefore be transferred to or processed in other countries according to the provider's infrastructure and applicable terms.
10. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including providing services, maintaining appropriate business and accounting records, resolving disputes, and satisfying applicable legal requirements.
11. Marketing Communications
Booking a GuateRide experience does not automatically mean that you will be subscribed to promotional email marketing.
Where marketing consent is requested, you may withdraw that consent.
12. Photography and Video
Where appropriate, marketing use of identifiable photographs or video taken during a tour will be based on separate permission.
Declining marketing-image consent will not prevent you from participating in a GuateRide tour.
13. Your Requests
For questions concerning personal information or requests relating to appropriate access, correction, or deletion where applicable, contact:
info@guateride.com
Certain information may need to be retained where necessary for contractual, accounting, legal, dispute-resolution, or legitimate business purposes.
14. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy when our services, technology providers, or applicable requirements change.
The latest version will be published on this page with an updated revision date.
