We collect personal information when you:

Book a travel experience through the Platform
Sign up to receive marketing communications
Participate in a survey

Apply for a job
Contact us

Join BYRDLI as a Creator:

To join BYRDLI as a creator, you will need to create an online account to access and use our travel platform (“Platform”) to share your travel experiences and content, manage your 'travel club,' and enable your community members to book experiences through your shop. We will collect your name, email address, social media handle, and bank (name, bsb, account number) & payment information (including billing address, credit card number, expiry date, and CVV/CVC code) to process commissions and administer your account. Your information will also be used to provide you with analytics and insights on your content performance.

Join a Club or Book an Experience through a Creator Club:

To join a club and book travel experiences through a creator club on our Platform, you will need to create an account. We will collect your name, email address, and password to create and manage your account. If you choose to book an experience through a creator club on BYRDLI, your payment and booking information (such as passport details or other travel documents) will be collected by a third-party service provider to process your booking.

Alternatively, travellers have the option to complete their booking without creating an account. In this case, we will only collect the information necessary to finalise your booking and process your payment. We do not store your payment information but may retain details necessary for verifying bookings or addressing queries.

Sign up for Marketing Communications:

If you sign up for email marketing communications, we will collect your email address to send you information about our products, offers, and events tailored to your interests. You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in our emails or by contacting us as indicated below. Please note that you may continue to receive transactional or account-related communications.

We may use third-party platforms (such as social media) to serve targeted ads based on your interests and may provide hashed versions of your information to these platforms. To opt out, contact us as set forth in the "Contact Us" section below.

Participate in a Survey or Event:

We may occasionally offer you the chance to participate in surveys or attend our events. Participation is optional, and any information collected will help us better understand your needs and improve our services. For event participation, we may collect additional information such as your name, email, location, and any other details necessary to communicate with you about the event.

Apply for Opportunities with BYRDLI:

When applying for jobs or other opportunities with BYRDLI, you may provide us with personal information such as that included in resumes or cover letters. This information will be used solely for assessing your application and communicating with you about current or future opportunities.

Contact Us:

If you contact us with a question, comment, or complaint, we may collect information to identify you (e.g., name, email address) and any additional details needed to address your inquiry. We may retain this information to assist you in the future and to enhance our customer service.

Non-Identifiable Information:

We may aggregate or anonymize your personal information to protect your privacy and for research or analytics purposes, helping us improve our services and develop new offerings. We may share non-identifiable information with third parties to assist in planning, analytics, or service development.

SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

We do not sell or disclose your personal information to third parties without your consent, except as outlined below or as required by law.

Service Providers:

We may share your personal information with third-party service providers to provide services on our behalf, including hosting, payment processing, analytics, marketing, and booking management. These providers have access to your information only to the extent necessary to perform their functions and are prohibited from using it for other purposes. Information may be processed outside your jurisdiction (e.g., in the U.S.) by these providers.

Legal and Compliance:

We and our third-party service providers may disclose your personal information to comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, or other legal processes. Personal information may also be disclosed to protect our legal rights, prevent fraud, or ensure the security of our users and our Platform.

Business Transfers:

If BYRDLI is acquired, merges, or undergoes reorganisation, your personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

INFORMATION ABOUT OUR WEBSITE

We collect the IP addresses of visitors and other details (e.g., browser type, time spent) to analyse Website activity and improve our services. We may use cookies to recognize your device and enhance your experience. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some features may not be available.

Analytics and Third-Party Links:

We may use third-party services like Google Analytics to understand website usage and improve the user experience. Our Website may contain links to third-party websites. We do not control these websites and encourage you to review their privacy policies.

INTEREST-BASED ADVERTISING

We may work with third-party ad networks to provide you with tailored advertisements based on your activity. To opt out of interest-based advertising, please refer to the Digital Advertising Alliance or contact us.

SAFEGUARDS AND RETENTION

We implement reasonable security measures to protect your personal information and retain it only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy or as required by law. All payment transactions made through our Platform are processed using secure encryption technology and comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS).

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND CONTENT USAGE

As a creator on BYRDLI, you retain ownership of any content you post, including images, videos, and descriptions. By uploading content to your creator club, you grant BYRDLI a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to use, display, and distribute your content solely for the purpose of promoting your creator club and the BYRDLI Platform.

We are committed to safeguarding your content and ensuring it is only used in ways that align with the spirit of your creative work and this Privacy Policy.

This licence helps us to promote your creator club and attract more members to your community, ultimately supporting your growth and success on our Platform.

If you have specific concerns about how your content might be used, please reach out to us, and we can work together to find a solution that meets your needs.
