Privacy Policy

Taste of Tahoe Tours Last updated: August 24, 2026

Taste of Tahoe Tours ("TOTT," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit our website or book a tour, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information We Collect

Information you give us directly

  • Name, email address, and phone number when you request info, book a tour, or contact us

  • Payment details when you book directly through our site (processed securely by Stripe — we don't store your card information)

  • Booking preferences, dietary restrictions/allergies, and group details you share with us

  • Messages you send through contact forms, email, or social media

Information collected automatically

  • Standard website analytics (pages visited, time on site, general location, device/browser type) via Squarespace's built-in analytics and/or Google Analytics

  • Cookies used to keep the site running smoothly and to understand how visitors use it

Information from third parties

  • If you book through Viator, GetYourGuide, Airbnb Experiences, or another booking platform, that platform collects and handles your information under its own privacy policy. We receive the booking details (name, party size, contact info) needed to run your tour.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Confirm and manage your tour booking

  • Communicate with you before, during, and after your tour (confirmations, reminders, logistics, follow-up)

  • Accommodate dietary needs and group preferences

  • Process payments for direct bookings

  • Improve our tours, website, and marketing

  • Respond to inquiries and provide customer support

  • Send occasional promotional emails, only if you've opted in (you can unsubscribe anytime)

We do not sell your personal information.

How We Share Information

We share information only as needed to run your tour and our business:

  • Restaurant and venue partners — first name and party size/dietary needs, so stops can prepare for your group

  • Service providers — Acuity Scheduling (booking system), Stripe (payment processing), Squarespace (website hosting), and similar tools that help us operate

  • Booking platforms — if you booked via an OTA, they already hold your info independently

  • Legal requirements — if required by law or to protect the safety of our guests and team

Cookies

Our website uses cookies to support basic functionality and analytics. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some site features may not work as well.

Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information, including relying on secure, PCI-compliant payment processing through Stripe. No online system is 100% secure, but we don't store full payment card details on our own systems.

Your Choices

You can:

  • Ask what information we have about you

  • Ask us to correct or delete your information (subject to what we need to retain for bookings already completed, taxes, or legal reasons)

  • Unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time via the link in any email, or by contacting us directly

California residents may have additional rights under state privacy law regarding access, deletion, and opt-out of sale (which does not apply here, as we don't sell personal information).

Children's Privacy

Our tours and site are intended for adults booking travel experiences. We don't knowingly collect information from children under 13.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent revision.
