USE OF INFORMATION
General
Information supplied in this site may be shared with other group companies. When you register with our site, we ask you whether you would like to receive our email newsletters detailing changes to the site, offers and services from third party companies via email and/or via post that we feel may be of interest to you. You have the ability to opt-out of receiving all or any of these offers during registration.
From time to time, we may ask our market research partners to contact you by email as part of a survey of our services. You will be able to choose at the time whether or not you want to take part in that survey.
We have taken measures to ensure that information supplied to us is held securely. As a consequence - we may occasionally request proof of identity before allowing access to your personal information.
You have the right to access all personal information supplied to justbackpackers and rectify any inaccuracies on the information held. Further enquiries should be made to enquiries@justbackpackers.com.
Amendments and Updates to this policy may be made from time to time. Any revisions will be posted on this page so you will always be aware of what information we collect.
Online Advertisements
Telephone numbers and email addresses supplied as part of an advertisement will be published within the relevant advertisement for the duration of the booking, to enable a potential buyer to contact the seller. The postcode is collected in order to provide a positioning on each advert within our database, thereby enabling potential buyers to locate adverts for sale within a set radius of their chosen location.
Searches
Information is collected in order to provide a relevant match of adverts against a specified search. The inclusion of the postcode enables us to provide the potential buyer with a range of adverts within a chosen locality, rather than adverts randomly spread throughout the country.
Registration
Email addresses are collected in order to send registrants a password, providing them with online access to their registration details (available within the Members section on the website). The user can access this information at any time in order to update their details or change the option on whether they would like to receive communication from justbackpackers or selected third parties.
Other registration information is collected in order:
- To generate an overall audience profile of visitors using the justbackpackers web site. This information is then used to assist in developing relevant content features on the site as well as ensuring other trade advertisers, looking to reach specific audience groups, are encouraged to place their stock or promotions on the site.
- To provide our web site visitors with the option to receive the justbackpackers monthly email bulletin, as well as the option to receive email and postal offers from selected third party companies that justbackpackers believes may be of interest to them.
- To support our Clipboard functionality whereby visitors to our site can store settings on advert searches and/or set up alerts to be notified (by email or sms) when a specified advert appears for sale on the justbackpackers web site. Unless a visitor supplies their mobile number or email address, we are unable to send such alerts.

Why we use cookies
justbackpackers uses cookies for 4 purposes:
- To enable the delivery of functionality that improves the ease and speed of using the justbackpackers web site (see above)
- To frequency cap display advertisements, particularly pop-up boxes. By limiting advertisement exposure we provide a more compelling user experience for site visitors and also ensure that advertisements on justbackpackers are more evenly spread across our user base.
- To enable us to track the relative demand for different types of adverts on the site. Such information enables us to better target advertising at users searching for specific adverts.
- To enable us to track the relative popularity of disparate parts of our site. This in turn enables us to concentrate our efforts on developing those parts of the site that are generating the greatest consumer demand.
