Legal
Privacy Policy
This privacy policy explains how GetBudapested collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you visit this website or get in touch with us. We take your privacy seriously and comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
1. Who we are
GetBudapested is a private tour guide service based in Budapest, Hungary. For any questions about this policy or your personal data, contact us at hello@getbudapested.com.
2. What data we collect
We only collect data you provide directly by filling in the contact/interest form on this website. This may include:
- Your first and last name
- Your email address
- Your tour preference and group size
- Your preferred travel dates
- Any additional message you choose to share
We do not collect any data automatically. This website uses no cookies, no analytics scripts, and no third-party tracking tools.
3. How your data is collected
When you submit the contact form, your browser opens your personal email client with a pre-filled message addressed to hello@getbudapested.com. The data you entered travels via your own email client — it is not stored on any server operated by GetBudapested before you send the email.
Once you send the email, we receive it in our inbox. The data is then handled as ordinary email correspondence.
4. Why we process your data
The legal basis for processing your data is legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) — specifically to respond to your enquiry and, where relevant, to follow up about booking your tour. We do not use your data for marketing or share it with third parties.
5. How long we keep your data
We keep your email correspondence for as long as it is reasonably necessary to fulfil your enquiry or booking. If you ask us to delete your data at any time, we will do so promptly.
6. Who has access to your data
Your data is accessible only to the person operating GetBudapested. We do not share, sell, or disclose your personal data to any third parties, except where required by law.
Email is forwarded via ImprovMX, a third-party email forwarding service. ImprovMX acts as a data processor and handles data in accordance with their own privacy policy.
7. Your rights
Under GDPR, you have the right to:
- Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Rectification — ask us to correct any inaccurate data
- Erasure — ask us to delete your data ("right to be forgotten")
- Restriction — ask us to limit how we use your data
- Objection — object to our processing of your data
- Portability — request your data in a portable format
To exercise any of these rights, email us at hello@getbudapested.com. We will respond within 30 days. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Hungarian data protection authority (NAIH).
8. External links
This website links to our Instagram profile (@getbudapested). Once you leave this site, Instagram's own privacy policy applies. We are not responsible for the practices of external platforms.
9. Fonts
This website uses Playfair Display and Noto Sans, both served from our own server. No font files are loaded from Google or any other external CDN, meaning no data is transferred to third parties as a result of font loading.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page will always reflect when it was last revised. Continued use of the website after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
