This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you use our websites, booking platforms, and services. Please read this policy carefully. By using our platforms or services, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to bookings made directly through our website, realstoursnyc.com, by travelers located in the United States at the time of booking. Real's Tours NYC does not directly target its services to residents of the European Union, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland outside of the United States.

If you booked one of our tours through a partner platform such as Civitatis, Viator, or GetYourGuide, the processing of your personal data during the booking process is governed by that platform's privacy policy. Once you participate in the tour, we apply the same security and confidentiality measures described in this policy to the operational information necessary to provide the service (for example, name and number of participants).

  • Personal identification information (name, email address, phone number, mailing address).

  • Communications (emails, messages, or comments you send us).
  • Usage and technical data (IP address, browser type, device, pages visited, referral URLs).
  • Cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy and the "Cookies and Tracking" section below.

We collect this information when you make a booking, create an account, contact us, subscribe to newsletters, participate in promotions, or interact with our sites and services. We may also receive information from third parties (for example, payment processors or booking partners) to complete your transactions.

  • Legal obligation: when we must retain or disclose information to comply with applicable law.

  • To communicate with you about your bookings, updates, and customer support.
  • To send you commercial communications (when you have consented) and personalize your experience.
  • To improve our sites, services, and user experience, and to develop new offerings.
  • To comply with legal obligations, enforce our terms, and protect our rights and the safety of guests and staff.
  • To analyze usage trends and conduct internal research.

How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with: service providers who assist us with payments, booking systems, email delivery, and analytics, under strict confidentiality; legal or regulatory authorities when required by law or to protect our rights; successors in the event of a merger or sale; and other third parties only with your consent or as disclosed at the time of collection.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal and tax obligations, and resolve disputes. Booking and transaction records are typically retained for several years. You may request the deletion of your data, subject to applicable law and our legitimate business needs.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. This includes secure transmission (e.g., SSL/TLS), access controls, and secure storage. No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure; we recommend using strong passwords and notifying us of any potential security incident.
