Privacy Policy

Vacation Planners Franchise (“Vacation Planners,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use and share it, and the choices available to you.

This Policy applies to vacationplannersfranchise.com (the “Site”), to the lead forms we run on third-party platforms such as Facebook and Instagram, and to any related communications between you and Vacation Planners.

By using the Site or submitting information through any of our forms, you agree to the practices described in this Policy.

1. Information We Collect

Information You Provide to Us

We collect information you give us directly, including when you complete a form on our Site, submit a lead form on Facebook or Instagram, call us, email us, or speak with a member of our team. This may include:

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Phone number
  • City, state, or ZIP code
  • Information about your travel business, such as how long you have been booking travel, your current host agency or business structure, and your annual sales volume
  • Any other information you choose to provide in a message, form field, or conversation

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect:

  • IP address and approximate geographic location
  • Browser type, device type, and operating system
  • Pages viewed, links clicked, and time spent on the Site
  • The website or advertisement that referred you to us
  • Cookie identifiers and similar device identifiers

Information From Third Parties

We may receive information about you from advertising and analytics platforms, including Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and Google, and from our customer relationship management and email service providers.

2. Lead Forms on Facebook and Instagram

We advertise on Facebook and Instagram, including through instant lead forms hosted on those platforms.

If you submit one of these forms, Meta transmits the information you provided to Vacation Planners. Some fields may be pre-filled by Meta using information already associated with your account; you can review and edit any pre-filled information before you submit.

We use lead form information solely to contact you about the Vacation Planners franchise opportunity and to evaluate whether the franchise model is a fit for your business. We do not sell lead form information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Meta’s handling of your information on its own platforms is governed by Meta’s Privacy Policy, which is available at https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy. Submitting a lead form does not create any obligation on your part, and you may ask us to delete your information at any time using the contact details in Section 11.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to your inquiry and schedule a conversation about the franchise opportunity
  • Contact you by phone, email, or text message regarding your inquiry
  • Evaluate whether your business may be a fit for a Vacation Planners franchise
  • Send you information, updates, and marketing communications about our franchise opportunity, where permitted by law
  • Operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site
  • Measure and improve the performance of our advertising
  • Comply with applicable law and enforce our terms and agreements

Communications Consent

By providing your phone number, you agree that Vacation Planners and its representatives may contact you at that number by phone call and text message, including through automated dialing technology, regarding the franchise opportunity.
