PRIVACY POLICY

For Ruby's Cottage Resort Guests


Dear guests:

Your privacy is important to us. This policy tells you what information we gather about you, how we would use it, to whom we may disclose it, how you can opt out of the collection, use or disclosure of your personal information, and how to get access to the information we may have about you.

We collect information about guests such as name, address, automobile license number, make and year, credit card number and special needs, interests and preferences. We may collect the information from you directly, from a member of your family, or from a business associate making reservations for you. We may obtain it by telephone, in person, by mail, by fax or by email. We may keep the information in written form or electronically. By providing this information to us, you enable us to serve you better.

We use the information collected to make your stay with us more enjoyable, to assist in arranging payment of you accounts, and to provide further information to you about our facilities and programs.

We will retain your personal information only for as long as required by law or as necessary for the purposes for which it is collected. Your personal information will not be used for other purposes without your consent.

We will not disclose any personal information collected about you to anybody else, unless required to do so by law, except when we have provided the information to firms we retain to assist us in forwarding additional information to you, or in collecting funds owing by you. If our business is sold, we may provide this information to the purchaser of our business.

We will comply with all laws which require us to supply the information to government agencies and others. We will not otherwise sell, transfer or trade any mailing list which includes your information.

We will keep written information in a secure place in a locked cabinet. If the information is stored electronically, it will be password-protected and available only to members of our staff who require it.

If you wish to review the personal information we keep about you, please contact our Privacy Officer at the address set below. At your request, subject to applicable law, we will delete your personal information from our records.

By providing personal information to us, you are consenting to us using it for the purposes set out above and disclosing it to parties described above.
