Thanks for registering to use the Hip Hotels website. Here is some important information about how we use the information you give us.
Information Collection
Hip Hotels is the owner of all information collected on www.hiphotels.com.
We collect personal identifying information such as your name, email address,
postal address and phone number. The ways we use this information are outlined
below.
Registration
The Hip Hotels website requires registration after the first three free visits.
During registration you will be asked to provide contact information. This
information will not be shared with anyone else.
Profile
We store your registration information securely. If you need to update or amend
your details, just let us know.
Cookies
This section confirms that we use cookies on our sites, and makes it clear why
we do so.
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, the user would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If a user chooses to reject the cookie, they may still use our site. Cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site.
Log Files
Like most standard website servers, we also use log files. They include
internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider
(ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of
clicks. We use them to analyse trends, administer the site, track a user's
movement and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP
addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Email Communications
We send all newly registered users a welcome email to verify username and
password. If you forget your password, you can request a reminder email. We may
send marketing emails relating only to Hip Hotels’ products and services. If
you do not want to receive these, you may opt-out by sending an email to
info@hiphotels.com
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve users' privacy, we may need to disclose
personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief
that such action is necessary to comply with a current or pending judicial
proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our website.
Sharing Personal Information
We will only share your information with third parties when required by law as
set out in the Legal Disclaimer paragraph of this policy.
Business Transitions
In the event that Hip Hotels is subjected to a business transition, such as
a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of a portion of its assets,
users' personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets
transferred. Users will be notified via prominent notice on our website 30 days
prior to a change of ownership or control of their personal information. If, as
a result of the business transition, we have reason to believe that the users'
personal information is likely to be used in a manner different from that
stated at the time of collection they will be given choice consistent with our
Notification of Changes section below.
Links
This website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that Hip Hotels is
not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. This privacy
policy applies solely to information collected by this website.
Security
We use reasonable precautions to keep the personal information that you
disclose to us secure and to disclose such information only within the above
guidelines. Where information is shared, it is only to third parties we believe
to be responsible. However, we are not responsible for any breach of security
or for any actions of any third parties that receive the information. Our site
also links to other sites and we are not responsible for their privacy policies
or practices.
Correcting/Updating/Deleting/Deactivating Personal Information
If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as phone, email
or postal address), or if a user no longer desires our service, we provide a
way to correct, update or delete/deactivate users' personally identifiable
information. This can be done by emailing info@hiphotels.com
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we reserve the right to do so, and
will notify users that we have done so on the home page of the Hip Hotels
website.
If we need to use users' personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection, we will notify users via email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. If users have opted out of all communication with the site, or deleted/deactivated their account, then they will not be contacted, nor will their personal information be used in this new manner. In addition, if we make any material changes in our privacy practices that do not affect user information already stored in our database, we will post a prominent notice on our website notifying users of the change.
