  • 3. What personal information do we collect?

    Personal information has the meaning given under your local data protection law and, where the  GDPR applies, the meaning of personal data given under the GDPR. Personal information generally  means information which relates to a living individual who can be identified from that information,  or from that information and other information in a person’s possession, including any expression of  opinion, whether true or not, and whether recorded in material form or not, about an identified or  reasonably identifiable individual, and any indication of intention in respect of an individual.  

    Generally, the type of personal information we collect about you is the information that is needed to  facilitate your travel arrangements and bookings and to arrange travel related products and/or  services on your behalf.  

    We therefore typically process the following types of personal information about you: • Identifiers 

    • contact information (such as name, residential/mailing address, telephone number,  email address);  

    • date of birth; 

    • passport details, national identity card details, driver’s license details;  

    • online identifiers (such as IP address, device data, and network information);

    • loyalty program / frequent flyer details; 

    3.1. Commercial Information, including records of products or services purchased, obtained, or  considered, or other purchasing or consuming histories or tendencies; 


    3.2. Biometric information; 


    3.3. Internet or other electronic network activity (such as the device and network you are using  to connect with us), as further described in section 12;  


    3.4. Geolocation data;


    3.5. Audio (such voice recordings for quality control, service improvement, training and dispute  resolution), electronic and visual information (such as video surveillance footage) used for  security purposes,


    3.6. Professional or employment-related information;


    3.7. Payment account information (credit/debit card details, including card type, card number,  security number and expiry date and other financial details necessary to process various  transactions);


    3.8. Health information such as your dietary requirements and health issues (if any); and


    3.9. Other details relevant to your travel arrangements or required by the relevant travel service provider(s) (e.g., airlines and accommodation or tour providers).


    When you contact us for other purposes, we may also collect personal information about you in  relation to those purposes. For example, we may collect your personal information so we can contact you about a competition you have entered (e.g., if you win), or to respond to an enquiry or complaint  you have made, or feedback you have provided to us. We also collect information that is required  for use in the business activities of Cross hotels and resorts  and our related entities, including for example,  financial details necessary to process various transactions, and other relevant personal information  you may elect to provide to us.


    In some circumstances, we may collect personal information from you which may be regarded as  sensitive information under your local data protection laws. Sensitive information may include  (without limitation) your racial or ethnic origin, philosophical or religious beliefs or affiliations, sexual  orientation, membership of political, professional or trade associations (for use in booking special  rates), biometric and genetic information, passwords, financial information and health information.  Please note that, when necessary for travel arrangements, we may collect from a responsible adult  personal information relating to a child of any age, but we do not knowingly collect any such  information directly from children.

      

    We will only collect sensitive information in compliance with your local data protection laws, with  your explicit, voluntary consent and where it is reasonably necessary for, or directly related to, one  or more of our functions or activities (e.g., to provide travel-related products and services), unless  we are otherwise required or authorised to do so by law. To the extent permitted or required under  your local data protection laws, you voluntarily consent to us using and disclosing your sensitive  information for the purpose for which it was collected. For example, if you provide health information  to us in connection with a travel insurance application you would like to make, you voluntarily  consent to us using and disclosing that health information in connection with arranging that travel  insurance on your behalf. A further example is if you disclose your religious beliefs to us because  you are interested in, for example, certain holiday packages, in which case you voluntarily consent  to us using and disclosing that information in connection with facilitating your request. We will not  use or disclose sensitive information for purposes other than those for which it was collected, unless  we subsequently request and receive your voluntary consent to use it for another purpose.


  • 4. How do we collect personal information?

    We will only collect personal information in compliance with your local data protection laws. We usually collect your personal information directly from you during the course of your relationship with us. We will collect this information directly from you unless it is unreasonable or impracticable to do so.

     

    Generally, this collection will occur: 

    • when you deal with us either in person, by telephone, letter, email; 

    • when you visit any of our websites; 

    • when you use any of our apps; or  

    • when you connect with us via social media.  


    We may collect personal information about you: 

    • when you purchase or make enquiries about travel arrangements or other travel-related  products and services;

    • when you enter competitions or register for promotions;

    • when you subscribe to receive marketing from us (e.g., e-newsletters);

    • when you request brochures or other information from us; or

    • when you provide information, or use our services, on social media.


    Unless you choose to do so using a pseudonym or anonymously, we may also collect your personal  information (other than sensitive information) when you complete surveys or provide us with  feedback.


    In some circumstances, it may be necessary for us to collect personal information about you from a  third party. This includes where a person makes a travel booking on your behalf which includes  travel arrangements to be used by you (e.g., a family or group booking or a travel booking made  for you by your employer). Where this occurs, we will rely on the authority of the person making  the travel booking to act on behalf of any other traveller on the booking.


    Where you make a travel booking on behalf of another person(s) (e.g., a family or group booking or  a travel booking made for an employee), you agree to have obtained the voluntary and informed consent of the other person(s) for Cross hotels and resorts  to collect, use and disclose the other person's  personal information in accordance with this Notice and that you have otherwise made the other  person(s) aware of this Notice.


    You should let us know immediately if you become aware that your personal information has been  provided to us by another person without your voluntary consent or if you did not obtain voluntary  consent before providing another person's personal information to us.


    We make every effort to maintain the accuracy and completeness of your personal information which  we store and to ensure all your personal information is up to date. However, you can assist us with  this considerably by promptly contacting us if there are changes to your personal information or if  you become aware that we have inaccurate personal information relating to you (see section 15 below). We will not be responsible for any losses arising from any inaccurate, inauthentic, deficient  or incomplete personal information that you, or a person acting on your behalf, provide to us.


    Where the provision of services or other business processes is dependent upon you voluntarily  consenting to the collection and subsequent processing of your personal data, if you choose not to  provide your voluntary consent this may prevent us from providing specific services that rely upon  the collection of personal data, or otherwise impact the quality of the services, we can provide you.


    Similarly, if you request that we restrict or stop using personal information we hold on you or  withdraw a voluntary consent you have previously given to the processing of such personal  information, this may affect our ability to provide services to you or negatively impact the services  we can provide to you. For example, most travel bookings must be made under the traveller's full  name and must include contact details and appropriate identification (e.g., passport details). We  cannot make bookings for you without that information.


    Any voluntary consent you provide for the collection, use and disclosure of your personal data will  remain valid until such time as you withdraw your consent in writing. You may withdraw consent  and request us to stop collecting, using and/or disclosing your personal data by submitting your  request in writing using either the links provided in section 15, or by emailing/writing-to our Privacy  teams via the contact details provided in section 15. Please note that withdrawing consent does not  affect our right to continue to collect, use and disclose personal data where such collection, use and  disclosure without consent is permitted or required under applicable laws.


    For the retention of personal data, we may retain your personal data for as long as it is necessary  to fulfil the purposes for which they were collected, or as required or permitted by applicable laws.  We will cease to retain your personal data, or remove the means by which the data can be associated  with you, as soon as it is reasonable to assume that such retention no longer serves the purposes  for which the personal data were collected, and are no longer necessary for legal or business  purposes.


  • 5. How do we use your personal information?


  • 6. Is personal information disclosed to third parties?


  • 7. Is personal information transferred overseas?

    We may disclose your personal information to certain overseas recipients, as set out below. We will  ensure that any such international transfers are necessary for the performance of a contract between  you and the overseas recipient, and/or are made subject to appropriate or suitable safeguards as  required by your local data protection laws (e.g., GDPR, China cybersecurity law, etc.).


    Cross Hotels and Resorts, Corporate, Inc. (collectively) comply with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF) and the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF as established by the U.S. Department of Commerce.

    https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/ commerce.gov 


    The Cross Hotels and Resorts corporate brands shall remain liable under the DPF Principles if our agents process your personal information in a manner inconsistent with the DPF Principles, unless the Cross Hotels and Resorts USA corporate brands can demonstrate that they are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.


    It is possible that information will be transferred to an overseas recipient (other than any of our  overseas related entities) located in a jurisdiction where you will not be able to seek redress under  your local data protection laws and that does not have an equivalent level of data protection as in  your jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by your local data protection laws, we will not be liable for  how these overseas recipients handle, store, and otherwise process your personal information.


    We will ensure that any such international transfers are either necessary for the performance of a  contract between you and the overseas recipient or are made subject to appropriate or suitable  safeguards as required by your local laws.


    We use key service providers located in India, Indonesia, Philippines, Hong Kong, USA, United  Kingdom, and Australia. We also deal with many different service providers all over the world, so it  is not possible for us to set out in this Notice all of the different countries to which we may send  your personal information. However, if you have any specific questions about where or to whom  your personal information will be sent, please refer to the “Feedback / Complaints / Subject Access  Requests / Contacts” section below (section 15).

    (b) Travel service providers located overseas In providing our services to you, it may be necessary for us to disclose personal information to  relevant overseas travel service providers. We deal with many different travel service providers all  over the world, so the location of a travel service provider relevant to your personal information will  depend on the travel services being provided. The relevant travel service providers will in most cases  receive your personal information in the country in which they will provide the services to you or in  which their business or management is based.


    (c) Our third-party service providers located overseas We may also disclose your personal information to third-parties located overseas for the purpose of  performing services for us, including the storage and processing of such information.
