Last updated: 7 April 2026

1. Who We Are

CompareWhere is a travel comparison and planning platform. We help users compare destinations, estimated travel costs, and accommodation options.

2. Personal Data We Collect

  • Search inputs you provide, such as budget, travel dates, passenger count, origin, destination preferences, and accommodation choices.
  • Approximate location or coordinates when you choose to share location access in your browser.
  • Device and browser information, including IP address, browser type, and operating system.
  • Usage and analytics data, such as page views, clicks, and interactions with features.

3. How We Use Data

  • To provide travel comparison functionality and relevant results.
  • To maintain, troubleshoot, and improve site performance.
  • To monitor usage trends and optimize user experience.
  • To detect misuse, fraud, or security issues.
  • To meet legal and regulatory obligations.

4. Legal Bases (UK GDPR)

  • Legitimate interests: running and improving CompareWhere.
  • Consent: where you explicitly opt in (for example, optional cookies or location sharing where required).
  • Legal obligation: when processing is required by law.

5. Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes above, including security, analytics, and legal compliance. Retention periods vary by data type and operational need.

6. Sharing Your Data

We may share limited data with service providers supporting analytics, hosting, and site infrastructure. We do not sell personal data. Where links direct you to third-party travel providers, their privacy policies apply to booking or payment information you submit to them.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict, object to processing, or request portability of your personal data. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing relies on consent.

8. Contact

For privacy requests or questions, contact: legal@comparewhere.com.

9. Complaints

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your data, you can contact us first. If needed, UK users may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
