Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

HotelCompare is designed to be used without creating an account. We do not collect, store, or share personally identifiable information unless you voluntarily provide it — for example, by contacting us via our Contact form or subscribing to our newsletter.

When you search for hotels on our site, we process your search parameters (destination, dates, number of guests) to query our booking partners and return relevant results. These queries are not tied to your identity.

We use standard web analytics (such as page views and referrer information) to understand how our site is used and improve it. This data is aggregated and anonymized.

How We Use Your Information

Any information you provide (name, email) is used solely to respond to your inquiry or deliver the newsletter you signed up for. We never sell, rent, or trade your data to third parties for marketing purposes.

When you click through to a partner booking site (Booking.com, Trip.com, or Agoda), that site handles your reservation and any personal or payment data you provide to them. Their privacy policies apply — we recommend reviewing them before booking.

Cookies

HotelCompare uses essential cookies to remember your preferences (such as recent searches) and to measure site performance. We do not use cookies for cross-site tracking or targeted advertising.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. Note that some features (like recent searches) may not work correctly without cookies enabled.

Third-Party Sites

HotelCompare links to third-party booking sites including Booking.com, Trip.com, and Agoda. When you click a booking link, you leave our site and are subject to the privacy practices of the destination site. We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of these partners.

We may receive a commission when you complete a booking through one of our partner links — this helps us keep HotelCompare free to use. The commission never affects the price you pay.

Your Rights

You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal information we hold about you. If you have submitted a contact form or newsletter signup and want that data removed, email us at support@hotelcompare.com and we will process your request within 30 days.

Residents of the EU, UK, and California have additional rights under GDPR and CCPA, including the right to data portability and the right to object to processing. Contact us to exercise these rights.
