Privacy Policy

Tourism Belize is a travel-planning website operated by The Travel Spark Company LLC. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit TourismBelize.com, how it is used, and the choices available to you.

Information you provide

You may choose to provide information when you subscribe to the newsletter, send a message through the contact form, or communicate with us by email. The newsletter form asks for your email address. A contact message may include your name, email address, subject, and any information you decide to include in the message.

Please do not send passport numbers, payment-card details, health records, or other sensitive personal information through the website’s forms.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, our hosting, security, analytics, and content-delivery services may automatically receive technical information. This can include your IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location derived from an IP address, timestamps, and diagnostic or security events.

We use this information to operate and protect the site, understand which content is useful, diagnose errors, and improve performance. We do not use the site to sell personal information.

Cookies and similar technologies

The site and its service providers may use cookies, local storage, pixels, or similar technologies for security, form protection, analytics, preferences, and affiliate attribution. You can limit or remove cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect forms or other site features.

Newsletter and email

If you subscribe, your email address is sent to our email service provider, Brevo, so we can deliver Tourism Belize updates and measure basic delivery and engagement. You can unsubscribe at any time by using the link in an email. We may retain a limited suppression record after an unsubscribe so that we can honor the request.

Contact forms and spam prevention

Information submitted through a contact form is used to read and respond to your request, maintain relevant correspondence, and protect the site from abuse. Forms may be protected by Google reCAPTCHA. Google may process device, browser, cookie, and interaction data under its own privacy terms to determine whether a submission is legitimate.

Affiliate links, tours, and third-party services

Some pages contain tour cards, booking links, maps, or other content supplied by independent platforms such as Viator or GetYourGuide. If you follow a third-party link or interact with embedded content, that provider may collect information and apply its own privacy policy. A booking is made with the third-party provider, not with Tourism Belize, unless a page expressly says otherwise.

Affiliate links may include identifiers that allow a provider to attribute a booking to this site. Tourism Belize may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.

How information is shared

We may share information with service providers that help us host, secure, analyze, maintain, and communicate through the site. These providers may process information only for the services they supply. We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect rights or safety, investigate fraud or abuse, or complete a business reorganization.

Retention and security

We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to maintain security and business records, to honor opt-out requests, or to meet legal obligations. No internet service can guarantee absolute security, but we use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the information involved.

Your choices and rights

You may unsubscribe from marketing email at any time. Depending on where you live, you may also have rights to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or restriction of certain personal information. We may need to verify a request and may retain information when permitted or required by law.

Children

The site is intended for general travel planning and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from a child under 13 through the site.

International visitors

Tourism Belize and its service providers may process information in countries other than the one where you live. Privacy laws and protections may differ between jurisdictions.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the site or its services change. The date at the top of the page identifies the latest revision. Material changes apply from the time the updated policy is posted, unless otherwise stated.
