Privacy Policy
We collect only what we need to plan your journey and respond to you. Last updated July 2026.
This policy explains how Bhutan Aravia Peaks collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you use this website, submit an inquiry, or book a journey with us.
1. Information We Collect
When you submit an inquiry or contact form, we collect:
- Your full name, email address, and phone number
- Your country of residence
- Trip details you provide — package interest, travel dates, group size, and your message
We also use privacy-respecting analytics (Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights) to understand overall site traffic and performance. These do not identify you personally.
2. How We Use Your Information
- To respond to your inquiry and prepare a tailored travel proposal
- To send you a confirmation email and, where relevant, your booking reference number
- To arrange visas, permits, and bookings with hotels, guides, and other Providers on your behalf
- To improve our website and the services we offer
We do not sell your personal information to third parties, and we do not use it for advertising.
3. Where Your Information Is Stored
Submissions are stored securely in a MongoDB Atlas database that only authorized Bhutan Aravia Peaks staff can access. Emails are sent through Resend and, as a backup, Gmail — both reputable email providers with their own security practices.
4. Sharing With Third Parties
We share the minimum information necessary with the Royal Government of Bhutan and our trusted Providers (hotels, guides, drivers) solely to arrange your visa, permits, and bookings. We do not share your information with any other third party for marketing purposes.
5. Your Rights
You may ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you at any time by emailing info@bhutanaraviapeaks.com. We will respond within a reasonable time.
6. Cookies
This website uses only essential and analytics cookies needed for the site to function and for us to understand site usage. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices. Continued use of this website after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. See also our Terms & Conditions.
