Last updated: October 28, 2026

1 Who We Are

Argyll & Isles Travel ("we", "us", "our") operates the website www.argyll-isles-travel.com (the "Site"). Argyll & Isles Travel is a trading name of Pease & Partners LLC, a Florida limited liability company, and operates as part of Pease Premium Travel, a licensed Florida travel agency affiliated with Fora Travel, Inc.

We are responsible for the personal information collected through the Site. If you have any questions about this statement or how we handle your information, please contact us using the details in Section 13.

The Site is primarily a free regional guide to Argyll and the Scottish Isles. We do not take payments or process bookings directly on the Site.

2 Scope of This Statement

This statement explains what personal information we collect when you visit the Site, contact us, or engage with content posted by our affiliates and partners; how we use and share it; and the choices and rights available to you. It does not cover third-party websites you reach through links on the Site, which have their own privacy policies.

3 Information We Collect

Information you give us. When you send an enquiry, request a trip proposal, subscribe to updates, or use a chat or contact feature, we may collect:

  • Your name, email address, telephone number and country of residence
  • Travel interests and preferences, intended travel dates, group size and any other details you choose to share
  • The content of messages and correspondence you send us

Information collected automatically. When you browse the Site, we and our service providers may collect:

  • Device and browser information, such as browser type, operating system and screen size
  • IP address and approximate location (country or city level)
  • Pages viewed, time on page, links clicked, and the website, app or advertisement that referred you
  • Information collected through cookies and similar technologies (see Section 6)

Information from third parties. We may receive aggregated or de-identified reports from advertising and analytics platforms, such as Google, about how visitors found and used the Site.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive information such as health, financial account or government identification details through the Site. Please do not submit this type of information through Site forms. If a booking later requires it, we will collect it through a secure booking channel.

4 How We Use Your Information

We use personal information to:

  • Respond to your enquiries and provide travel planning advice and proposals
  • Arrange travel services you ask us to arrange, through our host agency and travel suppliers
  • Send updates or newsletters you have asked to receive (you can unsubscribe at any time)
  • Operate, maintain, secure and improve the Site and its content
  • Understand how visitors use the Site and measure the effectiveness of our advertising
  • Comply with legal, regulatory and record-keeping obligations, and protect our rights

Where UK or EU data protection law applies, we rely on the following legal bases: your consent (for example, for non-essential cookies and marketing emails); the steps needed to respond to your request or enter into a contract with you; our legitimate interests in operating and promoting the Site, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights; and compliance with legal obligations.

5 How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as described below:

  • Fora Travel, Inc. and travel suppliers. If you ask us to plan or book travel, we share the necessary details with our host agency, Fora Travel, and with the hotels, tour operators, transport providers and other suppliers who will deliver your trip.
  • Affiliates and partners. If your enquiry relates to an experience delivered by one of our partners (for example, a golf, whisky, castle or regional experience provider), we may share the details needed to respond to that enquiry with that partner. We require partners to use the information only for that purpose.
  • Service providers. We use trusted providers to host and build the Site (Landingsite.ai), measure traffic (Google Analytics and Google Search Console), run advertising (Google Ads, including YouTube), and provide email, chat or form services. These providers process information on our behalf under their own terms and privacy commitments.
  • Legal and safety reasons. We may disclose information where required by law, regulation or legal process, or to protect the rights, property or safety of our business, our visitors or others.
  • Business changes. If our business is reorganised, merged or sold, personal information may transfer to the new owner, subject to this statement.

6 Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Site uses cookies, pixels and similar technologies. These fall into the following categories:

  • Essential: needed for the Site to function and to remember your cookie choices.
  • Analytics: Google Analytics 4 helps us understand how visitors use the Site. Google provides an opt-out browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
  • Advertising: Google Ads and YouTube tags help us measure whether our advertising leads to visits and enquiries and may be used to show our ads to people who have visited the Site. You can manage Google ad personalisation at adssettings.google.com.
  • Affiliate tracking: Links to partner or affiliate websites may contain tracking parameters or set cookies so that a referral from the Site can be recognised. These cookies are controlled by the partner and governed by its privacy policy.

Visitors from the UK and European Economic Area will be asked for consent before non-essential cookies are set. All visitors can block or delete cookies through browser settings, although some Site features may not work as intended.

7 Affiliate and Partner Content

The Site may feature content, listings, offers and links provided by approved affiliates and partners. Please note:

  • Some links on the Site are affiliate links. If you follow one and make a purchase or booking, we or our partner may receive a commission. This does not change the price you pay.
  • When you leave the Site through a partner link, the partner's own privacy policy applies to any information you provide to them.
  • Affiliates and partners posting on the Site do not receive access to Site visitor data, analytics or enquiry records, except for enquiry details shared with them as described in Section 5.
  • Affiliates and partners must not use content they post on the Site to collect personal information from visitors (for example, through embedded forms, scripts or tracking code) without our prior written approval and a clear notice to visitors.
  • Affiliates and partners are responsible for their own compliance with applicable privacy, marketing and consumer protection laws, including any obligation to disclose commercial relationships.

8 International Transfers

We are based in the United States, and our service providers may process information in the United States and other countries. If you are located in the UK or EU, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your country. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as the UK International Data Transfer Addendum, EU Standard Contractual Clauses or a provider's certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and its UK Extension.

9 How Long We Keep Information

We keep enquiry and correspondence records for as long as needed to respond to you and to provide any travel services you request, and then for up to seven years for accounting, legal and dispute-resolution purposes. Newsletter subscription details are kept until you unsubscribe. Google Analytics is set to keep event-level data for 2 months and user-level data for 14 months. When information is no longer needed, we delete or anonymise it.

10 Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you and receive a copy
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete information
  • Ask us to delete your information
  • Object to or restrict certain processing, including direct marketing
  • Withdraw consent at any time, where we rely on consent
  • Receive your information in a portable format
  • Opt out of targeted advertising

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 13. We will respond within the time required by applicable law and may need to verify your identity first. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in each email.

If you are in the UK, you may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk). If you are in the EU, you may complain to your local data protection authority. We would appreciate the opportunity to address your concern first.

11 Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational measures to protect personal information, including secure (HTTPS) connections to the Site and access restrictions on our accounts. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

12 Children

The Site is intended for adults planning travel. It is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
