What data we collect

When you book a ticket, we collect: your full name, email address, optional phone number, the cave and time slot selected, ticket quantities, and a booking reference. We do not collect payment card data directly — payments are processed by Stripe.

How we use your data

Your data is used solely to: confirm your booking, send your e-ticket and QR code, send a visit reminder email approximately 2 hours before your appointment, and handle any customer service requests.

Cookies

We use strictly necessary session cookies to operate the booking system. We do not use advertising, tracking, or third-party analytics cookies. You may decline optional cookies without affecting your ability to book.

Data retention

Booking records are retained for 2 years for tax and operational purposes. After 2 years, personal identifiers (name, email, phone) are automatically anonymized. Anonymized statistical data may be retained indefinitely.
