Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 17, 2026

Next Era Travel LLC ("Next Era Travel," "I," "me," or "my") is a luxury travel planning business based in Gainesville and Ocala, Florida, serving clients nationwide. This policy explains what information I collect when you visit this website or work with me, how I use it, and the choices you have.

Information I collect

I collect only what I need to plan your travel and respond to you.

• Information you give me: your name, email address, phone number, and details about the trip you are planning, such as dates, destinations, budget range, and preferences.
• Traveler details needed to book: once you decide to book, suppliers require information such as full legal names exactly as they appear on travel documents, dates of birth, passport details, and frequent traveler numbers. I ask for these only when they are needed.
• Payment information: payments are processed by secure third-party payment providers or directly by your chosen supplier. I do not store full card numbers on this website.
• Website information: basic technical data such as browser type, device, pages visited, and approximate location, collected through standard web server logs and, if enabled, analytics tools.
• Messages and forms: anything you send me by email, form, or message.

How I use your information

• To respond to your inquiries and schedule consultations
• To research, plan, book, and manage your travel
• To share confirmations, itineraries, and important updates about your trip
• To send newsletters, free guides, or offers you have asked for, which you can stop at any time
• To improve this website and my services
• To meet legal, tax, and accounting requirements

Who I share it with

I do not sell your personal information. I share it only as needed to deliver your trip and run my business:

• Travel suppliers such as resorts, hotels, airlines, cruise lines, tour operators, transfer companies, and insurance providers, so they can confirm and manage your reservations
• My host travel agency, which supports booking, accreditation, and supplier relationships
• Service providers who help me operate, such as website hosting, email, scheduling, video meetings, payment processing, and customer relationship tools
• Authorities or other parties when required by law or to protect rights and safety

Suppliers and service providers have their own privacy policies, and their handling of your information is governed by those policies. Travel to some destinations may also require sharing information with government agencies, for example for border or security screening.

Cookies and analytics

This website may use cookies or similar tools to keep the site working and to understand how visitors use it. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling them may affect some features.

Email and marketing

If you subscribe to my emails or download a free guide, I may send you related content. Every message includes a way to unsubscribe, and you can also ask me directly to remove you.

How long I keep information

I keep client records for as long as needed to provide services, resolve questions after your trip, and meet legal and accounting obligations. When information is no longer needed, I delete it or make it anonymous.

How I protect it

I use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect your information, including limiting access and using reputable service providers. No method of storing or transmitting information is completely secure, so I cannot guarantee absolute security. Please avoid sending full card numbers or passport scans by regular email. I will tell you the safest way to share what is needed.

Your choices

You may ask to see the personal information I hold about you, correct it, or request that I delete it, subject to records I am required to keep and information already shared with suppliers for active bookings. To make a request, use the contact page.

Children

This website is intended for adults. I do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this site. When a family trip requires details about a minor traveler, I collect them from the parent or guardian only as needed for booking.

Links to other websites

This site may link to supplier and partner websites, such as resort or booking pages. I am not responsible for their content or privacy practices.

Changes to this policy

I may update this policy from time to time. The effective date above shows when it was last changed.
