Privacy Policy

Cricket Australia Travel Office - commitment to your privacy.

The Cricket Australia Travel Office is committed to protecting your privacy. We use the information we collect on our sites to make our services the best they can be and to enhance your overall experience. We do not sell, trade or rent your personal information to others, unless you consent or as expressly set out in this Privacy Policy. We will not send you e-mail that you have not consented to receive.

What information does the Cricket Australia Travel Office gather?

Unless you specifically tell us, the Cricket Australia Travel Office will never know who you are. You may, however, elect to tell us things that you want us to remember. We hope that, like many of our users and customers, you will want to provide information about yourself to the Cricket Australia Travel Office website(s) because it will help us to make our sites and services more valuable to you.

We collect your personal information at the time you facilitate an online purchase and only require information necessary to complete your booking, although you may choose to provide us with additional information so that the quality of service received is improved. Please note that any additional information you provide to us concerning special requirements for services to be provided is only collected and/or used as necessary in order to provide you with specific additional travel arrangements or information.

Your personal information will only be used or disclosed as is necessary for the following purposes:

  • to provide you with the goods and services available through the website,
  • for administrative purposes and to assist us to improve our websites and services,
  • to provide you with information and offers relevant to our services,
  • to Australian Cricket organisations as set out in this Privacy Policy.

If you are comfortable providing us with information about yourself, services such as travel information will become available to you, but in most cases it will not be possible for us to offer them to anonymous users. In some instances where we are selling products and services to you we require financial information as well as personal information. All the information we gather is stored by the Cricket Australia Travel Office on a secure site protected by state-of-the-art 'firewalls' and is never shared with anyone except as set out in this Privacy Policy.

We track traffic patterns throughout our sites. We use a feature of your browser called a "cookie" to assign a Session ID. The Session ID by itself cannot be used to find out your identity or the identities of any of our users: it only identifies your browser session to our servers when you visit our sites, and it only lasts until the end of your current browser session.

Why do we gather the information and how will we use it?

The Cricket Australia Travel Office aims to provide you with better services and more compelling reasons to come back and visit our sites.

In the future, we may use the information you provide us with to provide personalised portions of our sites to you that are intended to provide just the information you are interested in receiving.

We analyse what our users and customers like and don't like about the content, products and services on the Cricket Australia Travel Office sites so that we can constantly improve them for your use.

Occasionally, we will send you e-mail communications to provide information which we think you will find useful, including information about travel deals and services from the Cricket Australia Travel Office and/or its wholly owned associated companies. It is our policy only to send e-mail to customers who give us permission to do so. In every such e-mail, we will also have instructions on how you may unsubscribe from the email list so that you will not receive any future e-mails if you do not wish to - see the "Opt-out Policy " below.
