MERIDIAN & MUSE Website Privacy Policy

EFFECTIVE DATE: October 18, 2026

MERIDIAN & MUSE (“Meridian & Muse,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you visit themeridianandmuse.com or contact us through the website.

Meridian & Muse is operated by VIKAUL MERIDIAN LLC, an independent travel advisor affiliated with Fora Travel, Inc. This Policy applies to information collected through our website. It does not replace the privacy policies of Fora Travel or other third parties.

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide

When you submit a travel inquiry or otherwise contact us, you may provide:

• Your name and email address;
• Travel interests, preferred destinations, and approximate travel dates;
• Information about the occasion, itinerary, or travel arrangements you are considering;
• The number of travelers or other party details you choose to provide; and
• Any additional information you include in your message.

Please do not submit passport numbers, payment card details, health information, or other sensitive personal information through the website or ordinary email.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the website, we or our service providers may automatically collect technical and usage information, such as:

• Internet Protocol (IP) address and approximate location;
• Browser type, device information, and operating system;
• Pages viewed, referring pages, and interactions with the website; and
• Visit dates, times, and duration.

This information may be collected using cookies, analytics tools, server logs, pixels, or similar technologies.

2. How We Use Information

We may use personal information to:

• Respond to inquiries and communicate with you about potential travel planning;
• Understand your travel needs and, if you choose to proceed, assist with planning and booking;
• Operate, maintain, and improve the website and our services;
• Monitor website performance and protect against fraud, misuse, or security threats;
• Keep business records and comply with legal obligations; and
• Send marketing communications where permitted and, when required, with your consent.

3. Travel Inquiries and Fora Travel

Information submitted through a travel inquiry form may be transmitted to VIKAUL MERIDIAN LLC and processed through Fora Travel’s customer relationship management system or other tools used to respond to your inquiry and provide travel planning services.

Fora Travel may process personal information under its own privacy policy when you use a Fora Travel website, platform, or form. Please review Fora Travel’s Privacy Policy before submitting information through a Fora-operated service. This Policy does not govern information collected directly by Fora Travel under its own privacy policy.

Submitting an inquiry does not itself confirm a booking or require you to proceed with travel planning.

4. Cookies, Analytics, and Embedded Content

We and our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, understand traffic, improve functionality, and support security. You may be able to manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, the website’s cookie preferences. Blocking certain cookies may affect website functionality.

The website may also include embedded content or links to third-party services, including Instagram and Fora Travel. When you view or interact with embedded content, the third party may collect information about your visit, use cookies, or associate the interaction with an account you hold with that service. Those activities are governed by the third party’s policies and practices.

5. How We Disclose Information

We may disclose personal information, as reasonably necessary, to:

• Service providers that help operate our business or website, such as website hosting, analytics, email, communications, and technology providers;
• Fora Travel, including its CRM and booking-related systems, to help us respond to inquiries and provide travel planning services;
• Social media and embedded-content providers, such as Instagram, when you access their content or services;
• Professional advisers, regulators, law enforcement, or other parties when required by law, to protect rights or safety, or to address fraud or security issues; and
• A successor or acquiring entity in connection with a business transfer, where permitted by law.

Service providers may process information on our behalf or under their own privacy policies, depending on the service and circumstances.

6. Third-Party Websites and Travel Suppliers

Our website may link to Fora Travel, hotels, cruise lines, airlines, tour operators, social media platforms, and other third-party websites or services. These parties maintain their own privacy policies and terms. We do not control their privacy practices, and this Policy does not apply to information they collect directly. Please review their policies before providing personal information or using their services.

7. Email Communications

We may use your contact information to reply to your inquiry, provide service-related communications, or send marketing communications where permitted. You may opt out of marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link in the message or by contacting us at hello@themeridianandmuse.com. Even if you opt out of marketing, we may still send communications necessary to respond to your inquiry or provide requested services. We may also use the phone number you provide to contact you about your inquiry.

Email is not always secure. Please do not send sensitive personal or financial information by ordinary email.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to inquiries, provide requested services, maintain business records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect our legitimate business interests. Retention periods depend on the nature of the information, the purpose for which it was collected, and applicable legal requirements.

Information held by Fora Travel or other third parties may be retained under their own policies and practices.

9. Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect personal information within our control. No website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We cannot guarantee the security of information transmitted to or held by third parties.

10. Children’s Privacy

This website is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 through the website. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.

11. Your Privacy Choices

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you, or to opt out of marketing communications. We may need to verify your identity before responding and may retain information where permitted or required by law.

To make a request, contact us at hello@themeridianandmuse.com.

12. California Privacy Information

This section applies to California residents to the extent applicable under California privacy law.

We may collect identifiers, such as your name, email address, and IP address; commercial or travel-related information, such as travel interests and preferences; and internet or other electronic network activity, such as information about your use of the website. We collect this information from you, your browser or device, and service providers that support the website.

We use and disclose these categories for the purposes described in this Policy, including responding to inquiries, providing travel planning services, operating and improving the website, security, and legal compliance. We may disclose relevant information to the service-provider and other recipient categories described above.

We do not sell personal information for money, and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not knowingly use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes that require a right to limit its use under California law.

Subject to applicable law, California residents may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information, and to receive information about its collection, use, and disclosure. California residents may also have the right not to be discriminated against for exercising applicable privacy rights. To submit a request, contact hello@themeridianandmuse.com. We will verify and respond to requests as required by law.

13. Additional Information for Individuals in the EU/EEA

This section applies where the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) applies to our processing of your personal information.

Legal bases for processing

Depending on the circumstances, we process personal information on these legal bases:

• Steps at your request before entering into a contract: to respond to your inquiry and discuss or arrange requested travel planning services;

• Consent: where required, including for certain cookies or marketing communications; and
• Legal obligation: where processing is necessary to comply with applicable law.

Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing carried out before withdrawal.

International transfers

We and our service providers may process personal information in the United States and other countries that may have data-protection laws different from those in your country. Where required by applicable law, we will use an appropriate transfer mechanism or safeguard for international transfers. You may contact us for further information about applicable safeguards.
