Privacy Policy

What we collect, why, who helps us process it, and how to ask us to see or delete it.

[[TODO: legal review]] This page is a draft prepared from how the website works. It is not yet final legal text.

Who we are

Tribal Kite School, Watamu, Kilifi County, Kenya. Contact: kite@tribalsand.com, +254 (0) 11 6005008. [[TODO: legal business name and registered address]]

What we collect

  • Contact form: your name, email, phone (optional) and message.
  • Bookings, rentals and membership passes: your name, email, phone, skill level, the lesson or gear, dates, number of people, any notes you add, and what you have paid.
  • Payments: card and mobile payments are taken by Paystack on its own secure page. We receive only the result (paid or not, amount, reference) — never your card details.
  • Analytics: Google Analytics counts visits and pages viewed. We do not send it your name, email, phone or message.

Why we use it

  • To answer your message and arrange your lesson or rental.
  • To send booking confirmations, itineraries, payment receipts and changes to your booking.
  • After a completed lesson, one email asking for a review and inviting you to follow us on Instagram.
  • To understand, in aggregate, how the website is used.

Who processes it for us

  • Google (email delivery through Gmail; Google Analytics)
  • Paystack (payments)
  • Our web host [[TODO: name the hosting provider]]
  • Meta / WhatsApp and CallMeBot (new-booking alerts to our own staff phone: your name, the lesson and the time)
  • Cloudflare Turnstile, if enabled on the contact form (bot protection)

How long we keep it

[[TODO: retention period — e.g. enquiries 12 months; bookings as long as tax and accounting law requires]]

Your rights

You can ask to see, correct or delete the details we hold about you by emailing kite@tribalsand.com. We will reply within [[TODO: response time]]. [[TODO: confirm obligations under the Kenya Data Protection Act 2019 and, for visitors from the EU/UK, the GDPR]]

Security

The site is served only over HTTPS. Staff access to booking details is by individual login with roles, and payment card data never reaches our servers.
