Survey participants are anonymous unless otherwise stated in the survey.

Samaara frequently sponsors promotions and sweepstakes to give Samaara members the opportunity to win great travel and travel-related prizes.

We use contact information to notify contest winners and survey information to develop promotions and product improvements to the Samaara site.
