Your privacy is important to us.

The official Daallo Airlines Privacy Policy: how we collect, use, store and share your personal data.

Introduction

Welcome to Daallo Airlines' Privacy Policy. Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to protecting your personal data. This policy details how we collect, use, store, and share your information in accordance with applicable data protection laws. We may collect and process your personal data when you engage with us directly or through third parties such as travel agencies, airport authorities, or partner airlines.

1. Scope of this Privacy Policy

By accessing our platforms or using our products or services, you agree to the collection and use of your personal data as described in this Privacy Policy. In jurisdictions requiring explicit consent, we will only process your personal data once you have provided such consent (e.g., via acceptance of this policy or by selecting a tick box as mandated by local laws). Providing your personal information is optional; however, if you choose not to, we may be unable to offer certain services. Mandatory travel information must be supplied when required, or we may be unable to provide transportation services. This policy applies even when bookings are made via third parties, as it forms part of your Conditions of Carriage and contract with Daallo Airlines.

2. Personal Data We Collect

"Personal data" refers to any information that identifies you directly or indirectly. This may include your name, contact information, travel itinerary details, website usage, and interactions with our services. Data may be collected automatically through our website and apps (e.g., browser type, IP address via cookies or analytics tools) or directly from you through various communication channels. We may also receive data from partners such as travel agents, feedback providers, or airlines acting on your behalf. If you book on behalf of another individual, you must ensure you have their consent. We combine data collected through various methods for better service delivery. See "Sharing Your Information" for details on information sharing.

  • Religious affiliation inferred from meal preferences is used solely to fulfil such requests.

By providing this data, you confirm consent for processing and global transfer of such data as required. Refusal to consent may limit service availability and does not entitle you to refunds.

  • Preference Settings: Seat, meal, and travel preferences for your Air Rewards profile.

6. Providing Information About Others

When you provide personal data on behalf of others (e.g., family members or friends), you must have their consent. This includes health or sensitive data. If local law requires, retain records of this consent and share this Privacy Policy with them. You may also refer others to our services, but only if they would welcome the referral.
