This Privacy Policy informs you about our privacy policies and practices in relation to handling personal data, the type of personal data we collect on this website, the third parties with whom we might share such information, and how you can review or change the personal data you provide to us. We are dedicated to respecting your privacy and safeguarding your personally identifiable information (“personal data”).

Providing your personal data to us is voluntary, however if you do not provide this information we may not be able to provide you with the products, services or information you have requested.

When disclosing personal data to us, please ensure that the data you provide is complete and accurate. You will notify us immediately of any changes to relevant personal data so that we can update our records.  To the extent permitted by law, we may take any action with respect to your personal data that we deem necessary or appropriate if we believe that it may cause us, or any third party, to suffer any loss, liability or damage.

You agree that where you submit to us personal data relating to third parties, you will have their consent to submit and process such data for a specified purpose(s) and that you will be responsible for any claim they may have that their information has been misappropriated from them or provided to us without their consent. We may contact the third party to confirm their consent to the relevant purpose(s) for processing their personal data.

This Privacy Policy applies to our collection of personal data through various means such as via our website or by our documents and communications, to the fullest extent where applicable.  Additional information about the terms of use of our website and the use of materials you submit to us through our website is available in our Site Usage Agreement.

Minors and Children

Our websites and online services are not intended for use by minors and children and we request them not to provide personal data to us on any of our websites unless with the permission of their parent or guardian. 

C. PURPOSES AND LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING PERSONAL DATA

Making Reservations:

When you make a reservation or purchase hotel accommodation, your request will be passed to Hotel’s reservation website that will request your name and address along with other information which personally identifies you to assist with your reservation and stay such as credit card information including its number and related details, date of arrival/departure, membership number (if any), and room preferences.  We need to process your personal data in this way in order to perform our contractual obligations to you in relation to products and services you have requested, and to process your registration at one of our hotels.

We also collect personal data in relation to the following services.

Sweepstakes and Contests:

On occasion, we conduct sweepstakes and contests that offer the opportunity to win prizes. Each sweepstake has its own Terms and Conditions for your acceptance. Some sweepstakes require you to choose to enter and for others you will be entered automatically if certain conditions are met (e.g., making a reservation with a certain credit card). As part of entering a sweepstake, certain personal data such as name, credit card details and email address may be required. From time to time we may partner with other companies mentioned below to provide co-sponsored or co-branded promotions, products and services and may share your personal data with our co-sponsor. If you enter one of these sweepstakes or contests, you shall accept the Terms and Conditions and we may share your personal data with our co-sponsor or the third party sponsor. We need to process your personal data in this way in order to perform our contractual obligations to you in relation to a sweepstake or contest. If you do not accept the Terms and Conditions, we will not be able to offer these opportunities to you.

Contacting Us by E-mail with Questions or Comments:

When you send us an email or message us from one of our sites, we may retain information such as the content (including any follow up questions you may have), your email address, and our response. We may use this information, for example, to measure how effectively we address customer concerns online, to personalise your experience, and to continuously improve our service to you. It is in our legitimate interest to process your personal data in this way, as it allows us to deliver the type of content and product offerings in which you are most interested, to better understand and meet your needs, and to enhance our relationship with you. It also enables us to maintain high levels of customer service and responsiveness.

Direct Marketing:
We intend to use your contact information (such as name, email address and phone number) to send marketing materials or make appropriate promotional offers to you.  The marketing or promotional materials may cover the following: (i) hotel and hospitality; (ii) catering, food and beverage; (iii) leisure and entertainment; and (iv) any products, services or facilities which we think may be of interest to you.  We may share your contact information or enable our affiliated hotels brands, Partner Companies and/or marketing service providers to send direct marketing materials and make promotional offers to you if we feel these might be of interest to you, in relation to the same classes of marketing subjects.  

We will only use your contact information for direct marketing or promotional purposes if you have provided your consent (or your indication of no objection) for us to do so.  We will not send such messages to you if you have unsubscribed from receiving these messages (please see "Your Rights" below for further information).

Electronic Postcards and Forwarding to Friends:
From time to time, our websites may offer a feature that allows you to send an electronic postcard or otherwise share a message with a friend.  If you choose to do so, we will ask you for your name and e-mail address, and the recipient's name and e-mail address, along with the text of any message you choose to include.  It is in our legitimate interest to process personal data in this way in order to offer this type of interactive feature on our website, and thereby improve the overall appeal of our website to customers.

Online Surveys:
Occasionally, we may conduct online surveys to better understand the effectiveness of our websites and to improve our services performance. Your participation in these surveys is voluntary. Information collected by us when you participate in a survey may include name, street address and e-mail address. 

Employment:
If you choose to apply for employment online, you will be required to provide your name, street address, telephone number, email address, education background and employment history.  You will also be asked to provide other relevant information for such purpose, e.g. to attach your resume to our electronic form. You will be asked to provide your email address if you choose to be notified of any future openings.  It is in our legitimate interests to process personal data of online employment applications at the request of a data subject seeking to obtain employment (prior to the agreement of an employment contract) and to assess the suitability of the data subject for the opening.

User Account:
When making a reservation, we may offer you the option to register for an account with us. We will ask you to select a username and password, and provide your name and contact information. In addition, if you choose to, you can include credit card information, room preferences and select the email newsletters to which you would like to subscribe.  We will only process your personal data in this way if you have provided consent for this type of processing.

Aggregating Website Data:
We aggregate statistics, responses to any surveys and questionnaires, traffic patterns and related site information and disclose such aggregate data to third parties for marketing, advertising or other promotional purposes but such aggregate data will not include any personal data. To enable us to monitor and improve our websites, we gather and record on our servers certain aggregated information about you when you use it, including without limitation, details of your operating system, browser version, domain name and IP address, the URL you came from and go to and the parts of our websites you visit. Such information is primarily used to provide you with an enhanced online experience.  To the extent that such data is not fully anonymised and continues to constitute personal data, it is necessary for our legitimate interests to process this data in order to monitor and enhance our website offering, and ensure the website is functional and user-friendly.

Legal Grounds:
We will use and disclose your personal data when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is required by law, regulations, order or notice issued by a competent authority or is necessary or desirable to investigate or protect against harmful activities to guests, visitors, employees or others or to property (including these websites) or to protect or enforce our rights under the contract or otherwise with you.
