Affiliate Links and Third Parties

BFM Travels may earn a commission when visitors click affiliate links or complete bookings with third-party travel providers.

We recommend reviewing the privacy notices of any third-party service before submitting personal information.

Cookies and Tracking

Legal Bases for Processing

Depending on how the site operates, personal data may be processed on the basis of consent, legitimate interests, performance of a contract, or compliance with legal obligations. The appropriate legal basis should be confirmed as part of final legal review.

Data Sharing

We may share information with website hosting providers, analytics providers, email marketing services, affiliate networks, and professional advisers where necessary to operate the website and business. We may also disclose information if required by law, regulation or to protect legal rights.

Data Retention

Personal data should only be retained for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including legal, accounting and reporting requirements. Specific retention periods should be defined in the final approved policy.

Your Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to the processing of your personal data, and to request data portability. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, and to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.
