Privacy Policy Statement We are committed to protecting your privacy within the governing laws of Australia (Privacy Act 1988). We do not sell, trade or rent any personal information to other companies, except to your selected accommodation/trip provider. In order to make a reservation through our website by credit card you will be required to provide your credit card details. All payments will be processed via our secure payment gateway provided directly by our bank. You will be provided with receipt/conformation of payment by email, immediately after payment has been processed. We feel that this is the most secure transaction process within the governing laws of Australia, rather than sending your personal details to all service providers who are in some cases located in very remote regions of Sri Lanka. No matter how secure technology may be it would be an impossible task to provide total security in regions where there is very little technology. That is why we prefer to process all payment transactions via our secure payment gateway within the governing laws of Australia and instruct our bank to forward your payment direct to your accommodation/trip supplier in Sri Lanka.
