Some of the information we collect may be classed as personal data, that is, it is information about an individual who can be identified from it. It may be collected any time you submit it to us, whatever the reason may be.

In doing business with you, typically we will collect:

  • Full or partial contact details including names and addresses (including business details if you are making a corporate booking), telephone and email details.

If you provide us with any personal data relating to any third party (e.g. information about your spouse, children, employees or colleagues) for particular purposes, by submitting such information to us, you warrant and represent to us that you have obtained the consent of such third party to provide us with their personal data for the respective purposes.

HOW WILL WE USE THE INFORMATION ABOUT YOU?

We use the information we collect about you to process your bookings and answer your

We may use your information to meet and comply with any applicable rules, laws, regulations, codes of practice or guidelines issued by any legal or regulatory body which are binding on us; and for purposes which are reasonably related to the aforesaid. We sometimes engage the services of trusted third parties to process the information collected by generating anonymised statistics to assist us with our marketing campaigns and business analysis. We do not disclose this anonymised data outside of our business group. It is not possible for the business to identify an individual from such anonymised data presented in our internal reports.

We may share your personal data with them for the purposes of prevention and detection of crime and in legal compliance with data protection laws and the General Data Protection Regulations. Information is not shared with them outside of this purpose.
