Quick Summary (The Important Stuff)
At ukholidaybreaks.co.uk, we take your privacy seriously. We are an information website and present informative articles about many different things but primarily about things to do, places to visit and accommodation that may be useful to you. Some of these pages may contain affiliate links. However, we do not collect, store, or process your personal data (like names, addresses, or credit card details) to book holidays or anything else. All bookings happen on third-party websites. However, we do use cookies to understand how people use our site and to make sure we get credited when you buy tickets, holidays or anything that is presented on this site through our links.

1. Who We Are
ukholidaybreaks.co.uk (“we”, “our”, or “us”) operates as an informational travel website. We are the “data controller” for any basic information collected directly on this website. If you have any questions, you can contact us at admin@ukholidaybreaks.co.uk.
2. What Information We Collect
We collect very limited information, which generally falls into two categories:
- Information you give us: If you contact us directly via email or a contact form, we will hold your name and email address to reply to you. If the enquiry is related to an advert then we need information to action your request, it will include: business name, contact name, email address, website address, advert area (where you want to place the advert on the site), short advert description, payment name. This information is not shared or sold to anyone. This information will only be used to process your request using software systems such as PayPal for payment processing, WordPress / WPForms hosting systems, Email provider, and Website hosting provider.
- Automated information (Cookies): We automatically collect anonymous analytic data about your device and how you use our website (e.g., your IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and the links you click) to help us improve our service.
3. How We Use Cookies, Affiliate Tracking, and Ad Networks
Cookies are small text files placed on your device. We use them for three main reasons:
- Affiliate Tracking: When you click a link to a provider, a cookie remembers you came from our site so we get credited.
- Paid Advertisements: Third-party advertisers and ad networks may use cookies to serve ads based on your visit to our website and other sites on the internet.
- Website Analytics: We use tools like Google Analytics to see how people use our site so we can improve it.
These cookies do not identify you personally. You can block or delete cookies at any time through your internet browser settings.
4. Third-Party Websites and Your Bookings
Our website contains links to external holiday providers, hotels, and travel agencies. Once you click these links and leave our site, we have no control over how those companies handle your data. We strongly recommend reading the privacy policy of the travel company you are booking with.
5. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties. We only share anonymised data with our affiliate networks and analytics providers to track sales and website performance. We will only disclose personal data if required to do so by UK law.
6. Data Security and Retention
We use secure hosting and standard encryption (HTTPS) to keep our website safe. We only keep your contact messages for as long as necessary to resolve your enquiry.
7. Your Legal Rights (UK GDPR)
Under UK data protection laws, you have rights regarding your data. You can ask us to:
- See what information we hold about you.
- Correct any incorrect information.
- Delete your information from our records.
To exercise these rights, please email us at admin@ukholidaybreaks.co.uk. If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK data protection authority.
