HOW WE DISCLOSE INFORMATION
SP Travel may will use your Personal Information to book products and services for you or on your behalf from our third-party suppliers and service providers, or other service providers or merchants for whom serve as independent contractors to SP. This collection of Personal Information can be for our internal purposes or on behalf of the third-party suppliers to provide the services or products you have requested. Please be aware that the consent you provide to the collection and use of Personal Information by SP, applies equally to the parties whose products and services we sell or book on your behalf. For example, if you purchase a trip through SP that includes a train ticket, you will be deemed to have consented to your Personal Information being provided to the train company to enable your ticket to be booked.
SP will share your information with third-party suppliers and service providers that perform services on our behalf, including but not limited to walking tour guides, travel companies, hotels, insurance companies, airlines, promotion or sweepstakes co-sponsors, and credit card agencies.

HOW YOU DISCLOSE INFORMATION
We may offer features that allow you to share your pictures and information related to your experiences with SP on various platforms and social media outlets such as Facebook, Instagram, or others. Your settings on those platforms will control how your information is shared within those platforms, which you may adjust accordingly.

You are responsible for the information you choose to share in this way.
