Privacy Policy
We committed to protecting your privacy. This policy outlines our personal information handling practices. When you give us personal information, we will treat it according to this policy.
What is personal information?
Personal information is any information that can be used to identify an individual, and may include, but is not limited to, name, email address, postal or other physical address, title, occupation, and other information required to provide a service, deliver a product, or carry out a transaction you have requested. Some of the reasons we collect your personal information include:
- to provide a means of contact with you
- to provide availability and booking data for your property/services
- for registration and security of your information
- to enable us to recognise and be sure it is you when you contact us
- to provide a more personalised and meaningful service
How we use your personal information.
We will only use your personal information in the way we said we would when it was collected. We will not subsequently change the way your personal information is used without your consent. Some of the ways we may use your personal information include:
- to provide the ability to create customised profiles and displays and view protected content, such as your Administration Menu
- to provide the ability to contact you, and provide you with billing information and notifications
- to provide customer/guest feedback
- to provide you with a better Support Service
- to meet contractual and legal obligations
- we do NOT retain any details of your credit cards. This information is kept by our payment processor (WorldPay) to allow payment processing settlement and fraud checking. You can view their Privacy Policy on their web site
Accessing and updating your Personal Information
We need your help in keeping the personal information you have shared with us accurate and up to date. You can view and update your personal information online from you Administration Menu.
Security of your Personal Information
We are committed to protecting the personal information you give us. We use a combination of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorised access, use or disclosure. We do not keep a plain copy of your password, it is encrypted as soon as we receive it and we are unable to re-create it into plain text once stored on our servers.
When we transfer sensitive personal data (for example, credit card information) over the Internet, we protect it using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology. Our payment partner is WorldPay who have a comprehensive Privacy Policy of their own.
While we try to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure the security of the information you transmit. We recommend you to take every precaution in protecting your personal information when you are on the Internet. For example, change your passwords often, use a combination of letters and numbers when creating passwords, and make sure you use a secure browser.
