Privacy
Policy
This privacy statement is applicable to Hotel-Marketers.com
and any other site that the Hotel Marketers own and operate.
Children
Under 18 Hotel Marketers does not intend to collect any personal information
from anyone under 18 years of age. If you are under 18, you should not enter information
on any Hotel Marketers website and should ask a parent to do so for you. If you
are under 18, Hotel Marketers must have express written permission from a parent
before you may use any Hotel Marketers site. The authorizing parent must email
us at Just@Hotel-Marketers.com, certifying
the parent's age and authority, and giving us express permission to acquire and
retain any such personal information from you as we may normally obtain from users
of any of our sites.
Information
Collection Hotel Marketers does not collect personally identifiable information
about you in any of its domains except when you specifically provide this information
on a voluntary basis. For example, we might ask for such information when we run
a contest or when you register for subscription services. Hotel Marketers will
make every effort to ensure that whatever information you provide will be maintained
in a secure environment. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet
can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your
personal information, Hotel Marketers can't ensure or warrant the security of
any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and
you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best
effort to ensure its security on our systems.
Information
Sharing Hotel Marketers will not sell or trade your personally identifiable
information to unaffiliated third parties.
However, we reserve the right
to contact you regarding your account status, changes to the subscriber agreement,
and any other matter that might affect your records.
Hotel Marketers may
disclose user information in special cases when we have reason to believe that
disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action
against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally
or unintentionally) Hotel Marketers' rights or property, other Hotel Marketers
users, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. Hotel Marketers
may disclose user information when we believe in good faith that the law requires
it.
Information Use You
should be aware that Hotel Marketers may sometimes permit third parties to offer
services through a Hotel Marketers site. Hotel Marketers is not responsible for
any actions or policies of such third parties, and you should check the applicable
privacy policy of any third party when providing personally identifiable information.
Hotel Marketers collects IP addresses for system administration, record
keeping, and advertising reporting. Your IP address is automatically assigned
to your computer when you use the World Wide Web. Hotel Marketers' servers record
incoming IP addresses. The IP addresses are analyzed only in aggregate; no connection
is made between you and your computer's IP address. By tracking IP addresses,
we can determine which sites refer the most people to Hotel Marketers. (Think
of an IP address like your zip code; it tells us in general terms where you're
from.)
You should be very cautious when you voluntarily disclose personal
information (for example, name or e-mail address) on bulletin boards, in chat
areas, or the upload areas of any Hotel Marketers site. That information, along
with any other information you may disclose in your posting, can be collected,
correlated, and used by third parties, and may result in unsolicited messages
from other posters or third parties. Such activities are beyond the control of
Hotel Marketers.
Cookies
You should be aware that non-personal information and data may be automatically
collected through the standard operation of Hotel Marketers Internet servers or
through the use of cookies. Cookies are small text files a website can use to
recognize repeat users. Hotel Marketers uses cookies to recognize visitors and
more quickly provide personalized content or grant you unimpeded access to registered
areas of our websites. With cookies enabled, you will not need to fill in password
or contact information, should areas of our sites ask for this information.
Information
gathered through cookies also helps us measure use of our sites. Cookie data allow
us to track usage behavior and compile data that we can use to improve the site
and target advertising. This data will be used in aggregate form; no specific
users will be tracked.
Generally, cookies work by assigning a unique number
to the user that has no meaning outside of the website that he or she is visiting.
Sometimes, advertisers or third parties hosting data for Hotel Marketers will
issue cookies. Hotel Marketers cannot control the use of these cookies or the
information that they gather.
You can easily turn off cookies. Most browsers
have a feature that allows the user to refuse cookies or issues a warning when
cookies are being sent. Remember, though, cookies may be necessary to provide
you with certain features available on Hotel Marketers' sites. Some areas of our
sites may not function properly without cookies. Enabling cookies ensures a smooth,
efficient visit to our sites.
Links

within the Hotel Marketers domain. Hotel Marketers has no control over these external
sites or their content, and cannot be held responsible for any actions they may
take or any information they might collect. You may arrive at one of these sites
through clicking on a banner advertisement, as part of a co-branding arrangement,
or simply by selecting a link on a Hotel Marketers web page. These sites might
issue their own cookies or collect data or personal information. Use caution when
visiting an external site.
