Cheetah Safaris Privacy Policy

Kindly read below our Privacy Policy

At Cheetah Safaris, we are committed to protecting the privacy and security of our travelers. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal information when you book a safari or interact with our services in Nairobi and across Africa.

About our Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 22, 2025

Legal Company Name: Cheetah Revolution Safaris Limited (Trading as Cheetah Safaris)

At Cheetah Safaris, we believe in being clear and open about how we collect and use data related to you. In the spirit of transparency, this policy provides detailed information about how we manage and protect your data.

1. Information We Collect

To arrange your safari, we need to collect specific “Personal Data” and “Sensitive Personal Data,” including:

  • Identity Data: Full name, nationality, gender, date of birth, and passport copies (required for park permits and domestic flights).

  • Contact Data: Email address, phone number, and physical address.

  • Travel Data: Flight details, insurance information, and travel preferences.

  • Health & Dietary Data: Allergies, medical conditions, or mobility requirements (to ensure your safety and comfort).

  • Financial Data: Payment card details and billing information (processed securely via encrypted gateways).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information for the following purposes:

  • Booking and Logistics: To process reservations for lodges, domestic flights, park fees, and other travel-related services.
  • Communication: To send itineraries, invoices, and important updates regarding your trip.
  • Safety: To ensure our guides and partners are aware of medical conditions or dietary needs for your safety and comfort.
  • Marketing: To send newsletters or promotional offers (only if you have opted in to receive them).

3. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal data. However, we may share necessary information with trusted third parties to facilitate your trip and operate our business:

  • Service Providers: We share relevant details (e.g., names, passport numbers, dietary needs) with hotels, lodges, airlines, and ground transport operators in Africa to fulfill your booking.
  • Website Plugins and Analytics: Our website uses third-party plugins and tools (such as Google Analytics, booking engines, and chat widgets) to improve functionality and user experience. These parties may process data like your IP address and browsing behavior in accordance with their own privacy policies.
  • Legal Obligations: We may disclose information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., border control).

4. Data Security

We implement robust technical and organizational measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way. This includes:

  • Encryption of digital data.

  • Secure Access controls for our staff in the Nairobi office.

  • Data Minimization: We only collect what is strictly necessary for your trip.

5. International Data Transfers

Since Cheetah Safaris operates across borders (e.g., cross-border tours between Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Rwanda, Namibia, Madagascar, and Uganda), your data may be transferred to service providers in those countries. We ensure these partners adhere to data protection standards equivalent to those in Kenya.

6. Your Legal Rights

Under the Kenya Data Protection Act, you have the right to:

  • Access your data and request a copy.

  • Correct any inaccurate information we hold.

  • Delete your data (once the safari is completed and legal retention periods have expired).

  • Object to your data being used for marketing purposes.

7. Retention Period

We keep your personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements (typically 7 years for financial records).

8. Photography and Media Usage Policy

By traveling with Cheetah Safaris, you acknowledge that photos and videos may be taken during your trip by our guides or professional photographers.

  • Marketing Usage: We reserve the right to use images and videos featuring guests for promotional and marketing purposes. This includes, but is not limited to, our official website, social media channels (Instagram, Facebook, etc.), brochures, and advertising campaigns.
  • Your Right to Opt-Out/Removal: We respect your privacy. If you see an image of yourself on any of our platforms that you wish to have removed, please contact us immediately. We commit to removing the specific image from our website and social media platforms upon receiving your request.
  • Pre-Trip Opt-Out: If you prefer not to be photographed at all, please inform your guide or our administration team in writing prior to the start of your safari.

Pack For a Purpose

Cheetah Safaris is a serious advocate of sustainable safari practices in Africa. As part of our efforts and initiative, we engage and support schools and children who need knowledge to better their lives. The best gift a child can be given is education, skills, and creativity. 

In this case, we request our guests booking with us, to bring an extra back of supplies. This can be in terms of books, sports materials, and any other items that would change the lives of these kids.
