INFORMATION COLLECTION When you browse
these sites and have not registered for
any online service from the company, you

as any information that identifies or can
be used to identify, contact, or locate
the person to whom such information pertains
including, but not limited to, a first and
last name, E-mail address, a home, postal

The company does, however, use "cookies,"
"client variables" and "session
variables" to collect information about
how the sites and servers are used and to
recognize you as an online service user
when you re-enter our sites. Information,
such as the server your computer is logged
onto, your browser type, and whether you
entered the sites via a Web site or E-mail
hyperlink, is collected and tracked in aggregate.
This information is used for the purpose
of measuring response rates to Web page
and E-mail hyperlinks as well as overall
Site activity and performance.
When you register for or request any
site service, you may be asked to provide
us with personal information which is used
to enhance your site experience, expedite
communications, allow you to receive electronic/postal
mailings from the company, or to be contacted
as requested. Additionally, we may request
your upcoming travel plans and the next
destination you plan to visit which allows
us to further personalize your site and
E-mail messages you may receive to meet
your specific needs, as well as make company
product improvements. We may also use this
personal information in aggregate to generate
market research reports.
IP ADDRESSES The Company collects the
IP addresses used to access our sites and
the dates and times of access. This information
is used to analyze trends, administer the
sites, track user's movement, and gather
broad demographic information for aggregate
use. IP addresses are not personally linked
to identifiable information.
REGISTRATION FOR ONLINE PRODUCTS &
SERVICES In order to provide you with a
particular site product or service, we may
request that you voluntarily supply us with
personal information for purposes such as
correspondence, site registration, submitting
an application or booking request, placing
an order, requesting product descriptions,
or participating in site surveys and/or
contests. If you are known to us as a registered
user of a Company Site, we may combine information
about your use of site products or services
with certain other online and offline information
we have about you as a Company customer
as well as information available from external
sources in order to customize your site
experience and present you with relevant
online and offline communications.
INFORMATION USE We may use personal information
you have given us with any of our group
of companies, including our parent companies
and any of our subsidiaries or commonly-owned
companies, to for example, provide a service,
ensure proper booking, measure consumer
interest in our various products and services
and inform you about products and services.
If you have provided your E-mail address
to us or to a company we have partnered
with to make their products and services
available to you, we may send you E-mail.
These E-mails may be based on personal information
you provided in your initial transaction
with us, in surveys both online and offline,
from information that may indicate purchasing
preferences and lifestyle, as well as available
from external sources. These E-mails come
directly from the Company. You can opt-out
from receiving E-mail from the Company as
described below in the section, "Declining
E-mail." When we send you E-mail, we
may use your E-mail address to identify
information about your receipt of the E-mail,
including whether the communication was
opened, how many times it was viewed and
whether you clicked on an embedded hyperlink
to reach a particular product or service.
This information is used to measure response
rates to E-mail communications as well as
enhance your site experience.
The Company does not provide your personal
information to our business partners. However,
we may send you offers, on behalf of our
business partners. If you take advantage
of an offer from a Company business partner
and become their customer, they may independently
wish to send E-Mails to you. In this case,
you will need to inform them separately
if you wish to decline receiving future
E-mails from them.
We may share personal information with
law enforcement agencies in the event of
a criminal investigation or suspected illegal
activity.
FORWARD/E-MAIL THIS PAGE Site users can
choose to request that a site web page be
sent electronically to another person. When
you elect to do this, you will be required
to enter your E-mail address and name, the
receiver's E-mail address and name, a subject
line, and a text message that will go to
the receiver. This will generate a preformatted
E-mail message that will go from you to
the receiver's mailbox with your message
embedded in the text of the E-mail.
Forward/E-Mail This Page is completely
voluntary and you will therefore have a
choice whether or not to disclose the required
information.
DECLINING E-MAIL The Company provides
customers with a means to decline receiving
E-mail. At any time, you may request to
discontinue receiving E-mail from the Company
by following the opt-out instructions included
within any Company E-mail and informing
us of your preference.
CHILDREN This Site is not used to knowingly
solicit personal information from or market
to children under the age of 13. This Site
is intended for use by persons who are over
18 years of age.
LINKED INTERNET SITES You should be aware
that other Internet sites to which you link
to from this site may contain privacy provisions
that differ from the provisions of our Privacy
Statement. The Company is not responsible
for the privacy practices or content of
other such sites. We encourage site users
to be aware when they leave the site and
to read the privacy statements of each and
every web site that collects personally
identifiable information. This Privacy Statement
applies solely to information collected
by this site.
SECURITY The Company uses Secure Socket
Layers (SSL), the industry standard in transferring
information to process your orders. The
SSL encrypts, or translates, your order
information into a highly indecipherable
code, which is processed immediately. When
you begin the transaction process, you will
move into the secure area of our site. A
warning window may pop up to notify you
that you are entering this "safe"
area. Once you've entered, the page address
(URL) will change from http to https, to
let you know you are in a secure area. You
will remain in this secure zone for the
entire transaction process.
