Protecting Your Personal Data

Protecting your Personal Data is a top priority at Conserve2Preserve and our network site(s).

Use of Your Personal Data

We use Personal Data to provide you with services, to build features that will make the services easier to use, and to contact you. This includes a faster website experience, better customer support, timely notice of new services and special offers, and more relevant content.

Our legal basis to use your data, where one is required to be provided by applicable law, is as follows:

(a) as necessary to perform a transaction; (b) as necessary to comply with a legal obligation (such as record keeping to substantiate our compliance with law); (c) where you have provided consent as appropriate under applicable law; and (d) necessary for legitimate interests such as marketing that you have not previously objected to receiving.

Not providing Personal Data may prevent us from providing you with requested information and carrying out transactions. However, you can always exercise control over our use of Personal Data for direct marketing and you can control the use of cookies on our site(s).

We also use your Personal Data as described in the “Disclosing Your Personal Data” section below.

    • To enable “single sign-on,” i.e., allowing you to log into a shared account for multiple network brands using a single set of log-in credentials, which allows us to, for example, show your reservations and bookings made through the websites, applications, and services of our group companies on your account page, and allow our group companies to show information in your respective account(s) with them.
    • To provide customer support services.
    • To detect, prevent, and investigate fraud and misuse of our services, other illegal activities, and data breaches.

  • Business Partners: In order to provide you with certain services, we may disclose your Personal Data with our business partners, or require that you transact directly with a business partner, such as a service provider. When you provide Personal Data in connection with these types of services, you are providing such Personal Data to those business partners, which hold such Personal Data on their or our behalf. Our contracts with our business partners offering these services require them to maintain such Personal Data in accordance with their published Privacy & Cookies Policy. Please refer to the websites of business partners for their Privacy Policies and other information. If you have any questions regarding details on this, please contact us via email.
  • Conserve2Preserve & its Network’s Agents and Vendors: Many of the operations we perform require us to hire other companies to help us. Examples of such operations include sending and delivering postal mail and email, analyzing data we collect, marketing our services, handling credit card transactions, and providing customer service. While the companies we engage have access to Personal Data to perform their functions, they may not use it for other purposes. Conserve2Preserve & its network site(s) require these vendors to enter into confidentiality agreements and to agree to act in a manner consistent with the relevant principles articulated in this Privacy & Cookies Policy. Exceptions to this would be clear in our correspondence or on this page, or both. In some instances, we utilize service provider platforms to help us provide certain services. Whenever possible, this Privacy & Cookies Policy governs the collection and use of your Personal Data even though you are on a third-party website. In any instance, we want you to always know whose Privacy & Cookies Policy governs the collection and use of your Personal Data. In most cases, you can click on the Privacy & Cookies Policy link provided on the 3rd party site(s) you are using. If there are questions, concerns, comments, or lack of clarity, please contact us via email for help.
  • Future Business Transfers: Our business is constantly changing. As part of that process, Conserve2Preserve or its network organization may sell or buy other companies, and Personal Data may be transferred as part of these transactions. It is also possible that Conserve2Preserve or its network organization, or substantially all of its assets, may be acquired by another company, whether by merger, sale of assets, or otherwise, and Personal Data may be transferred as part of such a transaction. In such cases, the acquiring company would be required to honor the privacy promises in this Privacy & Cookies Policy or obtain your consent to any material changes to how your Personal Data will be handled by announcing an update to this Privacy & Cookies Policy.
  • Compliance with Law and Other Disclosures: Conserve2Preserve & its network organizations reserve the right to release Personal Data in order to comply with applicable law or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on us: We may also release Personal Data to enforce or apply Terms and Conditions applicable to the services, to protect us or others against fraudulent or inappropriate activities, or to otherwise protect the rights, property, or safety of Conserve2Preserve & our network organizations, our affiliated companies, our customers, or others.
  • Disclosure of your Personal Data for other purposes: As described below in the section on Our Policy on Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies, we may disclose internet or other electronic network activity information about you, as well as general geolocation data based on IP address, with third-party cookie providers we use on our site(s) which may use this data for purposes other than strictly operational purposes. In certain jurisdictions, such sharing may be considered a “sale” of your Personal Data and you may have the right under applicable law to opt-out of or object to such sharing.

Your Choices Regarding Our Collection and Use of Your Data for Marketing and Other Purposes

As explained above, you may choose not to provide us with Personal Data; however, doing so may prevent us from providing you with requested information and carrying out transactions.

If you have created a profile on any of the services available on the site(s), your email address and password are required in order to access your profile information.

Depending on the jurisdiction where you reside, you may have specific rights under local legislation to: (i) request access to your Personal Data; (ii) request rectification of your Personal Data; (iii) request erasure of your Personal Data; (iv) request restriction of processing of your Personal Data; (v) request data portability; and (vi) object to the processing of your Personal Data, including opting out of certain targeted advertising, profiling, and certain sharing of your Personal Data or processing of your Personal Data for marketing purposes; (vii) opt-out of the sale or share of your Personal Data; (viii) appeal our decision to decline a request. You may also have the right to request from us the Personal Data from or about you that we have “sold” (as such term is defined under applicable law), shared, or disclosed for a business purpose within the past 12 months. Please email us if you need help to exercise such rights. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Please note that, in order to provide appropriate security to your information, we may require additional data points or information from you in order to verify your identity prior to completing certain requests related to your Personal Data (e.g., requiring the matching of two or three data points provided by you with information maintained by Conserve2Preserve & its network organizations).

Please look for a reply within 72 hours to ensure receipt of your request.

Cross-Border Data Transfer

Our site(s) are primarily operated in the United States. If you are located in Europe, please note that there is different privacy legislation in various parts of the world including Europe. Conserve2Preserve & its network organizations respect and comply with all applicable laws and guidelines to the best of our ability. We do not, however, have the ability to maintain knowledge of the policies that may affect people accessing our site(s) from various parts of the globe. In such cases where there may be a question as to jurisdiction, it is best to presume the jurisdiction of Delaware, USA, or California, USA. We adhere to the US Department of Commerce with respect to European Customer Data, including its Principles of Notice, Choice, Accountability for Onward Transfer, Security, Data Integrity and Purpose Limitation, Access, and Recourse, Enforcement and Liability.

With respect to cross-border data transfers from jurisdictions outside the US and Europe (i.e., the EU, EEA, Switzerland, and the UK), your Personal Data will likely be transferred to the US, a jurisdiction that may not provide an equivalent level of protection as your home jurisdiction. In such cases, the cross-border transfer to the US is necessary for the conclusion or performance of your transaction, for the establishment, exercise, and defense of legal claims, and for other purposes to the extent permitted by applicable law. To the extent the provision of your Personal Data is not necessary for those purposes, or as otherwise permitted by local law, your use of the site(s) or provision of any Personal Data constitutes your consent to the cross-border transfer of Personal Data and the other activities identified in this Privacy & Cookies Policy.

Children

You must be 18 years or older to use the site(s). Our Services are not directed at or intended for use by children. We do not knowingly collect Personal Data from children under 18 years of age. The limited circumstances we might need to collect the Personal Data of children under 16 years old include: as part of a reservation, the purchase of other related services, or in other exceptional circumstances (such as features addressed to families). Again, this will only be used and collected as provided by a parent or guardian and with their consent. If you become aware that your child or any child under your care has provided us with information without your consent, please contact us using the contact details listed in the How to Contact Us section below.

Links to Other Websites and Third-Party Services

Our site(s) contain links to other websites or services that are not owned or controlled by us, including links to websites of suppliers and our advertisers, sponsors, and partners. This Privacy & Cookies Policy only applies to information collected by and held within our site(s). We have no control over these third-party websites, and your use of third-party websites and features is subject to privacy policies posted on those websites. We are not responsible or liable for the privacy or business practices of any third-party websites linked to our site(s) or third-party social media features or functionality offered on our site(s), such as Facebook, Google Plus, Twitter, and YouTube. Your use of third parties’ websites linked to our site(s) is at your own risk, so we encourage you to read the privacy policies of any linked third-party websites when you leave one of our site(s), link into our site(s) from another website or through a sign-in feature (for example, Facebook Connect or an Open ID provider), or utilize a third-party social media feature or functionality available on our site(s).
