2. Information we collect

• Inquiry details you send by email, phone, or the on-site contact form (name, email, phone, group size, preferred dates, message).
• Technical data such as browser type and pages visited, if your hosting provider or analytics tools create standard server logs.

5. Sharing

We may share information with service providers who host the website or process email, and with authorities if required by law. Trail partners or transport providers receive only what is needed for a confirmed outing.

Depending on your location, you may request access, correction, deletion, or restriction of your personal data, or object to certain processing. Contact hello@negevtrail.pro. You may also lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
