Privacy & Cookies

Updated: 30^th September 2021

This Privacy Statement explains how and why we collect and process your personal data. This relates to personal data you share directly with us – as our guests, our property owners, our suppliers and our booking partners. It also relates to personal data you share with third party introducers, booking sites and group travel partners who share your data to provide you with the services that you have requested. Where a third party has shared your data with us, we expect that they have informed you about the processing and sharing of your data.

For the purpose of the Data Protection Legislation and this notice, we are the ‘data controller’. This means that we are responsible for deciding how we collect and process personal data about you. Personal data is defined as any information that can identify an individual (‘data subject’), directly or indirectly, by reference to an identifier (e.g. name, identification number, location data, or online identifier) or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural, or social identity of that individual.

This privacy notice also provides information about your rights as a ‘data subject’.
