Privacy Policy

Who runs this website

This website is operated by Mustapha Benfaraji, an independent private tour guide based in Marrakech, Morocco. For any privacy question, contact m-benfaraji@gmx.de or via WhatsApp.

Information we collect

We only collect information you choose to share with us:

• Contact and booking details you enter in the form — name, email, WhatsApp number, hotel/riad, tour dates, group size and message.
• Messages you send directly on WhatsApp.
• Your preferred language (English, Français, Deutsch or العربية), saved locally in your browser so the site remembers it on your next visit.
• Standard technical data collected automatically by our hosting provider (Vercel), such as browser type and approximate location, used only to keep the site secure and running.

How we use your information

Booking details are used solely to reply to your tour request, confirm the date, meeting point and any special interests. We do not sell, rent or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

How the booking form works

This website has no server-side database. When you submit the booking form, your entries are formatted into a message and opened directly in WhatsApp for you to send to Mustapha — nothing is stored on this website. If you email us instead, your message is handled like any normal email.

Third-party services

A few outside services help run this site. Each handles data under its own privacy policy:

• WhatsApp (Meta) — carries messages you choose to send to Mustapha.
• Vercel — hosts this website and processes standard server logs.
• Google Fonts — loads the site's typefaces; your browser may contact Google's servers to fetch them.
• Unsplash — supplies the destination photography shown on the site.
• OpenStreetMap — powers the interactive meeting-point map on the Contact page.

Cookies and local storage

This site does not use advertising or analytics cookies. It uses your browser's local storage only to remember your chosen language between visits. You can clear this at any time through your browser settings.

Data retention and security

Because booking requests are sent through WhatsApp or email rather than stored on this website, your information lives in those services' own systems, protected by their own security measures. We keep booking conversations only as long as needed to plan and deliver your tour.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Ask what personal information we hold about you.
• Request that we correct or delete it.
• Withdraw consent to being contacted at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.

Children's privacy

This website is intended for adults planning travel and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

This policy may be updated occasionally to reflect changes to the website or the law. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
