Credit Cards

We accept MasterCard / Visa cards. In an effort to simplify the booking process for our guests and clients we have translated the local currency charges into a single currency namely United States Dollars. This facility is intended to facilitate ease of payment for guests,  yet the underlying liability and contractual commitment remains the original source currency, South African Rands (ZAR).
‍
Depending on the gateway used or available at the time of payment, credit cards payments may be processed in South African Rands (ZAR). Where the cards are charged in South African Rands (ZAR), the exchange takes place at a prevailing US$ - ZAR exchange rate as published by any of the major South African Banks at the time of generating the link to the payment gateway.
‍
Travel League Inbound CC/LLC, trading as Salute Africa and its sister company  Salute Safaris Limited has no control over the exchange rate used by the cardholders bank on settlement and any exchange rate differences which may occur shall be borne by the card holder and not Travel League Inbound CC/LLC, dba Salute Africa Salute Safaris Limited.
‍
In cases where the booking was discussed and confirmed through an agent facilitating the booking, the agent is deemed  to have acted on cardholder’s/travellers behalf with full authority and authorisation. It is further assumed that the card holder received all the terms of booking from the agent and has consented thereto prior to processing any payments.
‍
The cardholder is deemed to have made himself aware of the services included under the proposal referenced on the signed booking form. Should the card holder be unsure of the services included in the package, it is the sole responsibility of the cardholder to contact Salute Africa for clarification via Email: gk@saluteafrica.co.za.

The card holder is deemed to have made himself aware of any additions to the booked and confirmed package referred to on the signed booking form and is deemed to have agreed to them prior to payment being processed.
‍
Where total booking cost is paid in parts or by numerous card holders or payments or both, the terms and conditions and acceptance thereof are deemed to apply to all payments as one in the same and will be deemed to be treated as a settlement of debt incurred for tour package booked.

‍
The Merchant will never, and under no circumstances would ever request any card data, physically or electronically from the client and or his agent.

If a refund is due on a booking that refund will be calculated in the source currency and be paid in that source currency.

What kind of personal data does Salute Africa collect?

Depending on the law that applies to you, we might be required to provide some additional information. If you'd like to know more, please read on.
‍
Personal data you give to us.
Salute Africa collects and uses information you provide to us. When you make a Trip Reservation, you are (at a minimum) asked for your name and email address.
Depending on the Trip Reservation, we may also ask for your passport number, telephone number, payment information, date of birth, the names of the people travelling with you and any preferences you might have for your Trip (such as dietary or accessibility requirements).
‍
If you need to get in touch with our team, contact your Trip Provider through us, or reach out to us in a different way (such as social media) we’ll collect information from you there, too. This applies whether you are contacting us with feedback or asking for help using our services.
‍
You might also be invited to write reviews to help inform others about the experiences you had on your Trip. When you write a review on the Salute Africa platform, we’ll collect any information you’ve included, along with your display name and avatar (if you choose one).
‍
Personal data you give us about others.
Of course, you might not simply be making a Trip Reservation for yourself. You might be taking a Trip with other people or making a reservation on someone else’s behalf. In both those scenarios, you will provide their details as part of the Trip Reservation.
At this point, we have to make it clear that it’s your responsibility to ensure that the person or people you have provided personal data about are aware that you’ve done so, and that they have understood and accepted how Salute Africa uses their information (as described in this Privacy Statement).
‍
Personal data we collect automatically.
Whether or not you end up making a Trip Reservation, when you visit our website we automatically collect certain information. This includes your IP address, the date and time you accessed our services, and information about your computer’s hardware and software (such as the operating system, the internet browser used, software/application version data and your language settings). We also collect information about clicks and which pages have been shown to you.
‍
If you’re using a mobile device, we collect data that identifies the device, as well as data about your device-specific settings and characteristics, app crashes and other system activity.

Why does Salute Africa collect and use your personal data?

We use the information collected about you for a variety of purposes. Your personal data may be used in the following ways:

1. Trip Reservations: First and foremost, we use your personal data to complete and administer your Trip Reservation – which is essential for what we do. This includes sending you communications that relate to your Trip Reservation, such as confirmations, modifications and reminders.

2. Customer service: We provide international customer service from our local offices, and we’re here to help 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Sharing relevant details, such as reservation information with our staff allows us to respond when you need us. This includes helping you to contact the right Trip Provider and responding to any questions you might have about your Trip Reservation (or any other queries, for that matter).

3. Communicating with you: There might be other times when we get in touch, including by email, by post, by phone or by texting you. Which method we choose depends on the contact information you’ve previously shared.

4. Customer reviews and other destination-related information: During and after your Trip, we might invite you to submit a review. We can also make it possible for the people you’re travelling with or whom you’ve booked a reservation for to do this instead. This invite asks for information about the Trip Provider or the destination.
   By completing a review, you’re agreeing that it can be displayed on, for example, the relevant Trip Provider information page on our websites, on our social media accounts and social media apps, or on the online platform of the relevant Trip Provider or business partner’s website. This is to inform other travellers about the quality of the Trip Service you used, the destination you have chosen or any other experiences you choose to share.
   

5. Promotion of a safe and trustworthy service: To create a trustworthy environment for you, the people you bring with you on your Trip, Salute Africa’s business partners and our Trip Providers, we might use personal data to detect and prevent fraud and other illegal or unwanted activities.
   Similarly, we might use personal data for risk assessment and security purposes, including the authentication of users and reservations. When we do this we may have to stop or put certain Trip Reservations on hold until we’ve finished our assessment.

6. Legal purposes: Finally, in certain cases, we may need to use your information to handle and resolve legal disputes, for regulatory investigations and compliance, to enforce the Salute Africa reservation service terms of use or to comply with lawful requests from law enforcement.

Providing your personal data to Salute Africa is voluntary. However, we may only be able to provide you with certain services if we can collect some personal data. For instance, we can’t process your Trip Reservation if we don’t collect your name and contact details.
If we use automation to process personal data which produces legal effects or significantly affects you, we will always implement the measures required to safeguard your rights and freedoms. This includes the right to obtain human intervention.
‍
To process your personal data as described above, we rely on the following legal bases:
As applicable, Salute Africa relies on the legal basis that the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract, specifically to finalise and administer your Trip Reservation.

If the required personal data is not provided, Salute Africa cannot finalise the Trip Reservation, nor can we provide customer service.
‍
When using personal data to serve Salute Africa’s or a third party's legitimate interest, Salute Africa will always balance your rights and interests in the protection of your personal data against Salute Africa’s rights and interests or those of the third party. Salute Africa also relies, where applicable, on compliance with legal obligations (such as lawful law enforcement requests).
‍
Finally, where needed under applicable law, Salute Africa will obtain your consent prior to processing your personal data, including for email marketing purposes or as otherwise required by law.

How does Salute Africa share your data with third parties?

In certain circumstances, we’ll share your personal data with third parties. These third parties include:

1. The Trip Provider you booked: In order to complete your Trip Reservation, we transfer relevant reservation details to the Trip Provider you have booked. This is one of the most essential things we do for you.
   Depending on the Trip Reservation and the Trip Provider, the details we share can include your name and contact details, the names of the people accompanying you and any other information or preferences you specified when you made your Trip Reservation.
   In certain cases, we also provide some additional historical information about you to the Trip Provider. This includes whether you’ve already booked with them in the past, the number of completed bookings you’ve made with Salute Africa, a confirmation that no misconduct has been reported about you, the percentage of bookings you’ve cancelled in the past or whether you’ve given reviews about past bookings.
   If you have a query about your Trip, we may contact the Trip Provider to handle your request.
   In cases of Trip Reservation-related disputes, we may provide the Trip Provider with your contact details, including your email address and information about the Trip Reservation process needed to handle the dispute. This can include a copy of your reservation confirmation as proof that a Trip Reservation was actually made.
   Please note that, sometimes, at the direction of the Trip Provider, we will need to share your personal data with parties related to the Trip Provider in order to finalise and administer your reservation. These parties might include other entities of a hotel group or service providers who are handling the data on the Trip Provider’s behalf.
   

2. Third-party service providers: We use service providers from outside of the Salute Africa corporate group to support us in providing our services. These include:

   • Customer support

   • Market research

   • Fraud detection and prevention (including anti-fraud screening)

   • Payment

We use third parties to process payments, handle chargebacks or provide billing collection services. When a chargeback is requested for your Trip Reservation, either by you or by the holder of the credit card used to make your reservation, we need to share certain reservation details with the payment service provider and the relevant financial institution so they can handle the chargeback. This may also include a copy of your reservation confirmation or the IP address used to make your reservation.

‍
We may share information with relevant financial institutions, if we consider it strictly
necessary for fraud detection and prevention purposes.
‍
All service providers are required to continue to adequately safeguard your personal data.

Competent authorities: We disclose personal data to law enforcement to the extent that it is required by law or is strictly necessary for the prevention, detection or prosecution of criminal acts and fraud, or if we are otherwise legally obliged to do so. We may need to further disclose personal data to competent authorities to protect and defend our rights or properties, or the rights and properties of our business partners.
‍
The transmission of personal data, as described in this Privacy Statement, may include overseas transfers of personal data to countries whose data protection laws are not as comprehensive as those of countries within the European Union.

We’ll use this information to help provide you with the service you requested – for example, to forward a message you want to send to your contacts, or to create a personalised user experience in the app or on our websites. It means that if you want us to, we can tailor our services to suit your needs, connecting you and your friends with the best travel destinations and analysing and improving our travel-related services.

Your social media provider will be able to tell you more about how they use and process your data when you connect to Salute Africa through them.
