We are committed
to respecting your privacy. We have
designed our websites and booking
engines so that you may visit them
without identifying yourself or
revealing any personal information,
unless you opt to do so. Once you
opt to provide personally
identifiable information (any
information by which you can be
identified such as name, address,
telephone number, e-mail address and
credit card number), it will only be
used to support your customer
relationship with us and for our own
internal purposes, including
marketing and research,
customization of our websites and
improving the content of our
websites.
This Online Privacy Statement
regarding the privacy of the
information you provide online
covers the following main areas:
Awareness, What we Collect,
Information Sharing, Choice, Access
& Accuracy, Security, Oversight, and
Right to Change.
Awareness
We provide this
Online Privacy Statement to inform
you about our privacy policy and the
practices and choices you can make
about the way your information is
collected and used. This notice may
be accessed from any area of
eBookings's websites
and our online proprietary booking
engines.
What we collect
When making a reservation:
When you make a reservation online
or by phone through our customer
support center, you will be asked
for your name, address, phone
number, e-mail address and credit
card information. This information
is used to contact you for customer
service, to guaranty your
reservation with our travel
suppliers and/or to bill you for
your travel purchase. We may also
ask you for other personal
information, such as your frequent
traveler numbers. During the booking
process you can choose not to
receive our newsletter or travel
reminders by unchecking the
appropriate boxes on the online
form. Thereafter, if you would
rather not receive them, please
click on the "unsubscribe" link or
follow the instructions in each
e-mail message.
Third-party vendors:
Some of ours
online booking engines are powered
by third-party vendors. You should
note that these vendors may have
privacy policies and practices that
differ from those of
our own. We
strongly encourage you to read the
privacy policies of these vendors
when using their websites.
E-Postcards:
We provide
electronic postcards cards via our
websites and our affiliate websites
for you to send to a friend. We
store the e-mail address of all
recipients, the message you want to
send and the URL for locating the
greeting card. We do not sell,
distribute, or license in anyway the
use of recipient e-mail addresses.
We use them solely for the purposes
of notifying recipients on your
behalf that a card is waiting for
them at the designated URL. After 30
days, all information pertaining to
your postcard is deleted.
About Cookies
Many websites, including those owned
by our company, use
cookie technology to help users
navigate efficiently. The cookie is
a small text file that resides on
your hard drive. From time to time,
our site(s) will request the cookie
from your browser so that we can
retrieve the stored information.
This allows you to avoid making the
same selections over and over again.
We do not use
cookies to store personal
information, such as credit-card
numbers.
An example of how cookies are used
is as follows: When you conduct a
search using our booking engine for
hotels in Orlando, a cookie will be
set recording the city of Orlando as
the parameter of your search. When
you return to the search form to
narrow or change your search,
Orlando will automatically be
entered into the city field in the
search form.
Please note that with most browsers,
a user can set the preferences to
show a warning each time a cookie
request is received. You can also
usually set the browser not to
accept cookies at all. However, to
make your experience using our
booking engines as convenient as
possible, we suggest that you allow
your browser to accept cookies.
Information Sharing
We will not
sell, rent, or lease your personally
identifiable information to third
parties. Unless we have your
permission or are required by law,
we will only share the personal data
you provide online with other
third-party vendors that are acting
to complete reservation services. We
do not knowingly permit the site to
be used by any person under the age
of eighteen and we do not knowingly
collect any personal information
from children (meaning those younger
than thirteen years of age). We will
cooperate with law enforcement
authorities.
Choice
We will not use
or share the personally identifiable
information provided to us online in
ways unrelated to the purposes
described above without letting you
know and offering you a choice.
Please be aware that our website and
those of our affiliates may contain
links to other websites, and that
the privacy practices of these other
websites may differ from those of
our own. This Online
Privacy Policy does not apply to
other websites. We encourage you to
read the privacy policies of all
other websites you visit.
Access & Accuracy
We strive to
keep your personally identifiable
information accurate. We make every
effort to provide you with online
access to your registration data so
that you may update or correct your
information. To protect your privacy
and security, we will also take
reasonable steps to verify your
identity before granting you access
or enabling you to make corrections
to your user account.
Security
We are committed to protecting the
security of your information. To
prevent unauthorized access,
maintain data accuracy, and ensure
the appropriate use of information,
we have put in place physical,
electronic, and managerial
procedures to safeguard and secure
the information we collect online.
We use encryption when collecting or
transferring sensitive data such as
credit card information.
Your use of our website is subject
to our User Agreement.
Right to Change
We review our Privacy Policy from
time to time, and may make changes
to the policy pursuant to such
review. Please periodically review
this page to make sure you have the
current version. Regardless of
changes, we will abide by the
privacy practices described to you
in this Privacy Policy at the time
you provided us with your personal
information. |
