We only process sensitive personal information in such jurisdiction if and to the extent permitted or required by applicable law.

Except where required by local laws, we do not knowingly collect personal information from our websites from any children or minors. As a parent or legal guardian, please do not allow your children or minors to submit personal information without your permission.

 

We may also collect non-personally identifiable information about you, such as internet log information or visitor behavior patterns when you visit our websites on your use of our websites, communication preferences, travel habits, aggregated data relative to your stays, and responses to promotional offers and surveys. Please also refer to our Cookies policy.

 

  1. How we process and use your information

We may collect, process and/or use the personal information which we collect in order to:

  • deliver our products and services to you – such as completing your reservations, sending you reservation confirmations, supplying the purchased goods and services, registering you for program membership, fulfilling a request for information, customizing our services to your preferences, earning and redeeming rewards, keeping proper records of your transactions with us
  • communicate and provide marketing and promotion to you – such as sending you information and updates on our products and services and other products and services that we think may be of interests to you, including latest promotions, competitions, joint- and cross promotions with our business partners, response to enquiries, to send you important information regarding our website, changes to our terms, conditions and policies
  • develop and improve our services to you – such as performing market research, analytics and/or profiling, developing new products and services, improve the effectiveness of our website, your hotel experience, our various types of communications, advertising campaigns, and promotional activities
  • work and cooperate with third party parties to deliver our products and services to you – such as travel agents, group travel organization, or anyone involved in the process of making your travel arrangements, credit card companies, airline operators and third-party loyalty programs
  • maintain your safety and security as well as that of other guests and personnel – such as to make proper identification and verification in processing of transaction, implement security surveillance and access controls when you visit or stay at our hotels, and administer general record keeping
  • meet applicable legal and regulatory requirements
  • use it in other ways as required or permitted by law or with your consent 

 

We will only collect, process and/or use the personal information where we are satisfied that we have an appropriate legal basis to do so. This may be because (i) you have provided your consent, (ii) our use of information is necessary for providing the products and/or services you have requested, (iii) our use of your information is in our legitimate interest as a commercial organization, such as to operate and improve our services (including for profiling and targeted advertising) and in a way proportionate and respects your privacy rights, and/or (iv) necessary compliance with applicable laws, regulations, court orders or other legal process.

 

  1. Keeping and safeguarding of personal information

To the extent permissible by applicable law, we generally only keep your information for as long as is reasonably required for:

  • the purposes for which that personal information was provided
  • ongoing business need, including record keeping, fraud prevention, or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation
  • as necessary to meet legal, regulatory, tax or accounting needs

 

We take reasonable steps to safely and securely delete, dispose of, anonymize and/or block personal information when we no longer need it.

Information security: We endeavor to protect your personal information we maintain and have implemented reasonable technical, organizational and administrative measures to keep your personal information safe and secure and to protect it against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use. We will review, monitor and update these security measures to meet our business needs, changes in technology and regulatory requirements.

 

Information transfer overseas: We do business globally. In order for us to operate effectively and provide you with the best experiences with our services, we may centralize certain aspects of our information processing activities and may have databases in different countries (some of which are operated by our local group company and some of which are operated by third parties on our behalf). We may therefore have to share and transfer your personal information from one country to another, or even across multiple jurisdictions, such as:

  • in or to Hong Kong where our corporate office is located
  • in those countries in which we manage and operate hotels, residences, sales or representative offices
  • in those countries where our third-party suppliers and/or services providers, agents, advisors or consultants are located

 

Your personal information may therefore be subject to privacy laws that are different from those in the country where the personal information is collected or those in your country of residences. We will endeavor that the transfer of your personal information is carried out in accordance with applicable privacy laws and that appropriate technical, organization and administrative measures are in place for its safeguard.

 

Information sharing: Insofar as reasonably necessary for us in delivering our products and services to you and for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, we may share your personal information with the below parties. The specific kind of information we share will depend on your activities with us and only to the extent as required or permitted by law, and/or with your consent.

  • Our group entities, hotels and residences managed and operated by us
  • Our business partners and third parties involved in the delivery of our products and services to you – including those involved in a sale of all or part of our business operations or assets and those for business, operational and general administration
  • Our marketing and advertisement partners
  • Third party services providers which process data (including personal information) for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures
  • Our agents, advisors, consultants, other third-party suppliers and/or services providers to assist us to operate effectively and provide you with the best experiences with our services
  • Other third parties when we have your consent or are otherwise permitted by law to do so

 

Information processing by third parties: Like most international hotel brands, we may outsource the processing of certain functions and/or information to third parties, which may be located in countries other than the country where your information is collected or your country of residences. We may also engage market research firms to assist us in contacting our guests for the purpose of market research and quality assurance. When we do outsource the processing of your personal information to third parties or provide your personal information to third-party services providers, we oblige those third parties to protect your personal information with appropriate security measures.

 

  1. You control your personal information

You may always choose what personal information (if any) you wish to provide to us. Please note, however, some of our products and services to you may be affected if you choose not to provide certain details, for example, we cannot reply to you without a name or contact details.

If you provide us with your contact details (e.g. postal address, email address, telephone number or fax number), we may contact you to let you know about the products, services, promotions and events offered that we think you may be interested in. You can always choose whether or not to receive any or all of these communications by contacting us as described in Section 6 below.  In addition to you agreeing to this Privacy Policy, we may also ask you to give us a separate consent before we send you with this information or indicate how you would like to receive any communication (e.g. via email or regular mail). After you have indicated your preferences, you can always change them.
