  • Name
  • Email address
  • Phone number
  • Trail or booking details (dates, group size, etc.)
  • Any other information you choose to give us

We do not collect special personal information unless you voluntarily provide it for safety or booking reasons.

Why we use your information

We use your information to:

  • Manage bookings, payments and related communications
  • Send booking confirmations and necessary practical information
  • Check you are old enough or young enough to hike The Cederberg Trail
  • Check that you are able to swim competently
  • Keep records required by law

If you book a trail, we will add you to our newsletter list for occasional updates about The Cederberg Trail, conditions or related hiking sector news. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email or by contacting us. We do not use your information for any other marketing purposes, and we do not share it with third parties for their marketing.

Who we share information with

We do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.

We may share information only when necessary to operate, for example with:

  • Trail Booking systems and Payment providers (to process bookings)
  • Email, booking or website tools that process data on our behalf (under appropriate agreements)
  • Authorities, where required by law

These parties must keep your information secure and use it only for the purpose we specify.

How long we keep information

We keep your information only as long as needed for the purposes above or as required by South African law (for example, financial records). After that we delete or anonymise it.

  • Object to certain processing
