Privacy policy

Last updated: May 2026

1. What we collect

When you forward a booking confirmation email to booking@hotelrefund.net, we extract the following information: hotel name, check-in and check-out dates, room type, number of guests, breakfast inclusion, cancellation policy, total price, and currency. We also retain your email address to communicate results back to you.

2. What we do not collect

We do not collect, store, or access any payment information such as credit card numbers, bank account details, or billing addresses. We do not access your email account — we only process emails that you voluntarily forward to us.

3. How we use your data

Your booking information is used solely to compare prices across hotel booking platforms and, if a lower price is found, to prepare a Best Price Guarantee claim on your behalf. Your email address is used to send you status updates and results.

4. Data storage and retention

Booking data is stored locally on our secure servers and is automatically deleted 30 days after your check-out date. We do not sell, share, or transfer your data to any third parties, except as necessary to process your claim (e.g., submitting evidence to the booking platform).

5. Third-party services

We use the following third-party services: Paddle (payment processing), Gmail (email routing), and Cloudflare (website hosting and DNS). Each of these services has its own privacy policy. Payment processing is handled entirely by Paddle — we never see or store your payment details.

6. Cookies

Our website uses Google Analytics to understand visitor traffic. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymous usage data. No personally identifiable information is collected through cookies.

7. Your rights

You can request deletion of all your data at any time by emailing booking@hotelrefund.net with the subject "Delete my data." We will process your request within 7 business days.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
