3. Payments and Authorized Third-Party Bookings

A. Payments to T3

When you purchase a Pre-Planned Itinerary, another Digital Product, or Bespoke Services, payment may be processed by a third-party payment processor used by T3.

The payment provider may collect information such as your name, billing address, payment-card details, transaction amount, device information, and fraud-prevention data. The payment provider processes that information under its own terms and privacy practices.

T3 may receive information such as:

Your billing name and address
The product or service purchased
The amount paid
Transaction date and status
Payment confirmation
Refund, reversal, dispute, or chargeback information
Limited payment-method information, such as the card brand and final digits, where provided by the processor

T3 does not ordinarily receive or store your complete payment-card number or security code when payment is processed through a third-party payment provider.

B. Authorized Third-Party Booking Assistance

Where limited on-the-ground booking assistance is expressly included in a Bespoke Travel Design Services agreement, you may authorize us to use information you provide to complete an inquiry, reservation, or booking directly with a third-party provider.

Depending on the request and booking method, this information may include:

Traveler names
Contact information
Trip dates and booking preferences
Accessibility, dietary, or other requirements you have authorized us to communicate
Billing or payment information
Other information reasonably necessary to complete the authorized request

We use such information only for the inquiry, reservation, or booking you have specifically authorized and disclose it only to the relevant provider or booking platform.

T3 does not hold client funds or act as the merchant of record for third-party travel services. You remain the contracting party with the third-party provider.

Whenever reasonably available, we may direct you to a secure payment link or ask you to provide payment information directly to the third-party provider. We do not intentionally retain complete payment-card details longer than reasonably necessary to complete an authorized transaction, subject to applicable legal, accounting, security, or dispute-related obligations.

You should not send complete payment-card information through ordinary, unsecured email.

4. Legal Bases for Processing for EEA and UK Users

Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. You may:
