1. Introduction
The purpose of this policy is to inform users of the website www.detoursmadagascar.com (hereinafter "the Site") about how their personal data is collected, used and protected by Nomadays, in accordance with:
- Regulation (EU) 2016/679 on the protection of personal data (GDPR),
- the amended French Data Protection Act (loi Informatique et Libertés),
- as well as the recommendations of the CNIL (the French data protection authority).
2. Data Controller
Personal data collected via the Site is processed by:
NOMADAYS SAS
10 Allée Jean Bringer, 34260 Le Bousquet d'Orb, France

Email: service.clientele@nomadays.com
Nomadays acts as the data controller for data relating to the use of the Site, the management of quote requests, customer relations, the booking and administrative follow-up of trips, as well as access to the customer area.
3. Local Partner Agency
As part of the organisation of the trips offered on the Site, Nomadays works with independent local partner agencies, in particular:
DETOURS MADAGASCAR, based in Madagascar.
In order to ensure the proper performance of the tourism services, certain personal data necessary for the organisation of the trip may be transmitted to this local agency as well as to the service providers involved in carrying out the trip.
Depending on the nature of the processing carried out, the local partner agency may act:
- either as a processor acting on behalf of Nomadays,
- or as a separate data controller for operations directly relating to the local execution of the trip.

We may collect the following categories of data:
Identification data
Surname, first name, email address, telephone number, postal address.
Travel-related data
Participants, dates of birth, travel preferences, information necessary for booking tourism services.
Customer account data
Login credentials, travel documents, history of exchanges and bookings.
Browsing data
IP address, device type, pages viewed, browsing statistics.
Payment data
Processed exclusively by our secure payment provider Stripe — Nomadays does not have access to card numbers.
Special data
Certain information relating to health or specific needs may be collected only where strictly necessary for the organisation of the trip, with your consent.
5. Purposes of the Processing
Personal data is used in order to:
- respond to quote requests;
- design and organise trips;
- manage bookings, contracts and invoicing;
- provide access to the customer area;
- provide traveller assistance before and during the trip;
- personalise our travel suggestions;
- comply with legal and accounting obligations;
- improve our services and the user experience;
- send commercial communications where you have consented to them.
6. Legal Basis for the Processing
The processing is based on:
- the performance of the travel contract;
- the user's consent;
- compliance with legal obligations;
- the legitimate interest of Nomadays in improving its services and the security of the Site.
7. Recipients of the Data
Personal data is only transmitted where necessary:
- to local partner agencies;
- to tourism service providers (accommodation, carriers, guides, activities);
- to technical service providers ensuring the operation of the Site;
- to administrative authorities where required by regulations.
Nomadays never sells personal data to third parties.
8. Hosting and Technical Subprocessors
To provide its services, Nomadays uses technical subprocessors, selected for their security guarantees and governed in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR:
- Data hosting: Supabase (infrastructure located in the European Union);
- Application hosting: Vercel and Railway;
- Secure payment: Stripe;
- Artificial intelligence assistance: Anthropic (see Article 9);

9. Use of Artificial Intelligence
Nomadays uses artificial intelligence tools (Anthropic Claude) to assist its advisors in processing requests (brief summaries, suggestions of tailored itineraries). The data transmitted to these tools is anonymised beforehand: name, email and telephone are systematically removed.
No automated decision producing legal effects is made by the artificial intelligence: a human advisor validates each proposal before any dispatch.
10. Transfers Outside the European Union
As part of the organisation of international trips, certain data may be transferred to partners located outside the European Union.
Nomadays ensures that such transfers are governed by appropriate safeguards in accordance with the requirements of the GDPR, in particular where the data is necessary for the performance of the travel contract.
