Personal user information is needed to make and confirm travel bookings and this data is stored in a user Profile in a database stored at one of our data centres. This information is either gathered from the end users, the Travel Management Company or via other departments such as the HR department of the end users company.
We communicate appropriate personal data to travel providers and booking hubs. Obviously for foreign travel some of this information must go abroad, some of it to outside the European Economic Area (EEA). In particular we are contracted with the Travel Management Companies to use Sabre’s Global Distribution System based in the United States.
As a Data Processor, Sabs Travel Technology does not decide the retention period for your data, this is determined by the end user company as the Data Controller. Please contact your employer for details of their retention policy.
Profile data is needed in order to book travel reservation within the host systems including, but not exclusively, GDS, Hotel Reservation Systems, Rail Reservation Systems, Taxi Reservation systems. The Travel Management Company must already have accounts setup with these suppliers in order for Personal Information to be supplied to them during the bookings process. We may collect and use booking information data for billing and internal reporting purposes, and to provide information to our clients to assist them in managing their travellers’ booking activities. Our legal justification for processing this data is “Performance of Contract”.
We agree in all of our customer contracts not to sell, share or otherwise disclose such data to third parties except as necessary to provide our services. We retain the option to disclose aggregate data regarding some or all of our customers, for example for marketing purposes, but will not use personal data or specific traveller or company information without prior agreement.

SABS Corporate has undergone and continues to undergo a number of security checks and processes which include a review of system architecture by external, independent experts and high-level penetration testing by said independent experts. The system is run from secure, approved data centres and is load balanced across multiple sites. In addition all staff with access to data have been security checked and vetted and cleared, using standard UK Security vetting services from the Disclosure and Barring Service
