Last updated: 8 May 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Hayta Apps (Pest Repeller LLC) — operator of the Kuşadası Safari Center website and mobile applications ("Kuşadası Safari Customer", "Kuşadası Safari Driver", "Kuşadası Safari Admin") — collects, uses, and protects your personal data.

1. Data we collect

Identity & contact: name, e-mail address, phone number (WhatsApp), nationality. Provided by you when you book a tour or create a customer account.
Booking details: tour selection, travel date, number of participants, pickup address, hotel/cruise ship name, special notes.
Approximate location (optional, mobile only): when you enable location to find nearby pickup points or to let your driver locate you on the day of the tour. You can revoke this permission at any time from your device settings.
Payment data: when you pay online we use Stripe to process the transaction. We do not store your card number on our servers — we only retain a transaction reference and the receipt URL.
Device data (mobile): a push notification token issued by Apple Push Notification Service or Firebase Cloud Messaging, app version, OS version, and device model. Used to deliver booking-related notifications.
Authentication: a one-time password (OTP) sent to your email and a JWT session token after verification.
Usage logs: minimal server logs (date, route, response code) for security and debugging.

2. How we use your data

To create and manage your tour reservation.
To send booking confirmations, receipts, and pre-tour reminders by email and WhatsApp.
To match you with a driver and a pickup vehicle on the day of the tour.
To process online payments via Stripe and refunds when applicable.
To improve our service quality and prevent fraud.
To comply with Turkish tax law (Mali Müşavir / fatura saklama yükümlülüğü).

3. Sharing your data

We share your data only with:
