What information does Stay
Here Booking Service collect?
At different times, Stay
Here Booking Service may collect three types of
information about you.
First, we use a feature of your browser called
a "cookie" to assign identification to your computer. The
cookie automatically identifies your computer - but not you
- to our servers every time you visit our site. Cookies,
by themselves, cannot be used to find out the identity of
any user. Unless you specifically tell us, we will never
know who you are, even though we assign your computer a cookie.
You can turn the cookie's feature off by using your browser
preference options - although you may not be able to utilise
some services properly.
Second, we keep track of your IP address to
help diagnose problems with our server and to administer
our Web site. Your IP address is also used to gather broad
demographic information about you, such as your location
and your Internet Service Provider. We may also collect aggregate
information on how our users are utilising the site. This
might include information regarding traffic patterns through
the site and search queries.
Third, at specific times we may ask you to
provide us with personal information in order for you to
register for a service (e.g. Stay Here
Booking Service Email, Web Hosting) or to enter a
competition. You may choose not to provide us with this information;
however, this may limit our ability to provide you with a
specific service or offer you personalised content. For example,
our Registration Form requests that you provide contact information
(such as an email address) and demographic information (such
as post / zip code etc).
You may "opt-out" of receiving mailings from
us (see the delete/deactivate section below). Web Hosting
registrations require similar contact information, demographic
information and, if purchasing a service, credit card details.
All transactions are protected through encryption and are
never disclosed to a third party not directly involved in
the transaction. Users may "opt-out" of receiving future
mailings (see the delete/deactivate section below).
What organisation is collecting the information?
Stay Here Booking Service usually
collects the requested information, however, we have chosen
select partners in order to provide you with a full-service
web site. Stay Here Booking Service's
partners provide users with services such as secure payment
services. In order to use these services, it may be necessary
to enter information which then goes to our partner and is
not kept by Stay Here Booking Service.
Stay Here Booking Service attempts
to ensure that all of our partners adopt privacy policies
similar to ours. However, we suggest that, if you have questions
regarding where information is being sent or about the privacy
policy for a particular content provider, you please contact
us.
What does Stay Here Booking Service do with
the data it collects?
Whenever Stay Here Booking
Service collects data, it is intended to tailor
or improve the experience of visitors to our site. From
the data collected we can offer content based on the user's
preferences. We analyse what our users prefer in order
to improve. We may use a "cookie" so that the site rembers
your visit but not you personal details.
On occasion, we will send email communications
to provide you with information which we think you will find
useful, including information about new products and services
from Stay Here Booking Service.
We might also contact you to see if you are interested in
participating in market research regarding Stay
Here Booking Service. It is our policy to send email
only to customers who give us permission to do so. In every
such email, we will also have instructions on how to unsubscribe
and avoid receiving any future emails from us. Please see
our "Opt-Out Policy" section
below.
With whom does Stay Here Booking Service share
data?
Stay Here Booking Service will
not disclose any of your personal information to a third
party without your consent, unless we believe, in good faith,
that the law requires it or that the rights or property of Stay
Here Booking Service need to be protected/protection.
What
choices are available regarding collection, use and distribution
of the information (Opt-Out Policy)?
Our site provides you with the opportunity
to "opt-out" of receiving communications from us and our
partners at the time we ask you for this information. In
addition, whenever we contact you via email, we will also
have instructions on how to unsubscribe so that you will
not receive any future emails from us if you so choose.
As previously noted, you may choose to not
provide us with any of the information we request, however,
this may limit our ability to provide you with a specific
service or limit our ability provide you with accomodation
services.
Procedures designed to protect the loss, misuse
or alteration of information under Stay
Here Booking Service's control.
Stay Here Booking Service has
taken measures to ensure that information is accessible only
to the user who has initially entered the information. Only
select individuals at Stay Here Booking
Service have access to this information. In both situations,
the information is accessible only after a password has been
entered.
Links to other sites
Stay Here Booking Service contains
links to other sites not affiliated with Stay
Here Booking Service. These sites have their own policies
and practices with respect to online privacy, and Stay
Here Booking Service cannot be responsible for the
privacy practices or the content of these unaffiliated Web
sites.
