Privacy
Registration data and certain other information about you are subject to our Privacy Policy

We at Royal Holiday (collectively referred to as "We","Us" or "Our") recognize the importance of protecting the privacy of certain information or data collected from Our users, prospective users or other customers (collectively referred to as "Users", "You" or "Your"). This Privacy Policy discloses what information We gather, how We use it, and how to correct or change it. At Royal Holiday it is Our intention to give You an understanding about how We collect Your information and the use We make of it in the course of Our business.

Royal Holiday gathers two (2) types of information about its Users: 1) data that users provide through optional, voluntary registration on Our Web Sites; 2) and data Royal Holiday gathers through added tracking, mainly by tallying Web page views throughout Our Web Sites. Such information enables Us to tailor Our content to better-fit Our Users' needs and to help Our advertisers understand Our audience. However, be assured that Royal Holiday will not disclose information gathered by RCI from Your use of Our Web Sites to third parties without Your consent, except as may be noted in this Privacy Policy or disclosed to You when the information is submitted.

Royal Holiday also collects general business information relating to employees, contractors, shareholders, resort managers and other individuals. However, this privacy policy does not outline in detail the use of contractor and employee information.

• Optional registration
  We collect information by specifically requesting it from You. Generally this occurs when You register at one of Our Web Sites or request information or a service. Usually, the Royal Holiday Web Sites and service partners use Your information to operate the Web Sites and to deliver services. Royal Holiday Web Sites also use Your information to inform You about other products or services available from Royal Holiday and its affiliates.
• Usage tracking
  Use of Internet Protocol ("IP") Addresses:
  An IP address is a unique number that is automatically assigned to Your computer whenever you are surfing the Internet so that Your computer can be identified by the main computers, known as "Web servers," that "serve up" Web pages.
  Royal Holiday and/or its affiliates collect IP addresses for the purposes of system administration, to report aggregated information to Our advertisers, and to audit the use of Our Web Site. When users request pages from Royal Holiday's and/or its affiliates' Web Sites, Our servers log the users IP addresses. We do not normally link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means that a users session will be logged, but the User will remain anonymous to Us. We will use IP addresses to identify a User when We feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with Our site terms of use or terms of service or to protect Our service, site, other members or others.

  By showing how and when users use a site, cookies help Us see which areas are popular and which are not. Many improvements and updates to the site are based on such data as total number of visitors and pages viewed. This information is most easily tracked with cookies. We use the information from cookies to provide services better tailored to Our Users' needs.
  
  Most cookies expire after a defined period of time, or You can delete Your cookie file at any time. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset Your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, note that some parts of Royal Holiday and/or its affiliates' services will not function properly or may be considerably slower if You refuse cookies. For example, without cookies, You will not be able to set personalized preferences.
  
  Royal Holiday and/or its affiliates have two (2) primary uses for its cookies. First, We use them to specify a user's preferences. For example, users can specify keywords across several categories or markets so You don't have to tell Us repeatedly about Your travel preferences. Second, We use cookies to track users Web site usage trends and patterns. This helps Us understand Our users needs better and improve areas of Royal Holiday's and/or its affiliates' services that Our Users find valuable. While both of these activities depends on the use of cookies. You have the option of disabling the cookies via Your browser preferences.
  
  You may occasionally get cookies from Our advertisers. Royal Holiday and/or its affiliates do not control these cookies. The use of advertising cookies sent by third-party servers is standard in the Internet industry.

"Personal Information" means information about an identifiable individual, and includes names, telephone numbers, addresses, e-mail address, credit card numbers and related transactional information and other personal information You may provide to us by any means, including but not limited to through Our Web-sites and through third parties, by e-mail, telephone, fax or mail. Personal Information does not include the name, title or business address or telephone number of an employee of an organization, or the name, address or telephone number of a person that is available in a public telephone directory. As a general rule, Royal Holiday does not, and will not, do the following with Your Personal Information: (1) sell Your Personal Information to anyone; (2) use the Personal Information We collect and store to make decisions about granting or extending consumer credit unless You submit a separate credit application and authorize Us to use or disclose this information; or (3) act as a consumer reporting agency, or furnish information about any User's credit worthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, general reputation, personal characteristics or mode of living to any consumer reporting agency. We will only use and disclose Your Personal Information that You submit to Us with others as stated in this Royal Holiday Privacy Policy. Royal Holiday collects Personal Information in many parts of its business. These include:

• Royal Holiday: Royal Holiday collects Personal Information about members at the time when a person first joins a program and while a person is a member. The main categories of information we collect relate to a person's general contact information, personal details such as age range and gender, use of the program, payment details, responses to surveys and other details, which are usually collected directly from the member.
• Royal Holiday Resort Management: In its role of managing resorts, Royal Holiday collects Personal Information related to bookings and as necessary for other purposes related to the management of the resort facility. Further Personal Information may be collected in specific instances such as in the event of an incident occurring at the resort being managed for legal and insurance reasons.
• Royal Holiday Travel: Royal Holiday collects Personal Information on individuals when they book their travel arrangements, in order to process the transaction and to fulfill booking requests with travel and tourism operators.

Our purpose in collecting information about You is to provide You with membership services, such as those provided in the Operating Rules. Royal Holiday uses Personal Information in several different ways in operating Our membership programs and operating Our business, and most of these uses are clear from the circumstances. We also use Your Personal Information for internal quality assurance purposes.

In case You change Your mind or some Personal Information is out of date, is inaccurate, or otherwise changes (such as Your zip code or e-mail address), We will try to provide a way to correct, update, or remove such Personal Information that You give Us. We also give You the opportunity to control the communications We direct to You. We offer Users the opportunity to "opt out" of having Personal Information shared with parties outside Royal Holiday and/or its affiliated companies. You should be aware that when You are on Royal Holiday's Web Sites You could hyperlink or be directed to other Web sites that are beyond Our control and/or outside Our service. These other Web sites may include Web sites of advertisers, timeshare developers, resort operators, sponsors and partners that may use Royal Holiday's and/or its affiliates' logo as part of a co-branding agreement. These other Web sites may send their own cookies to users and members, collect data, or solicit personal information.

Royal Holiday does not control such Web sites, and, therefore, is not responsible for their contents or the hyperlinks or advertising they choose to place on such Web sites. Royal Holiday and/or its affiliates' inclusion of hyperlinks to these Web sites do not imply any endorsement of the material on such Web sites or any association with their owners or operators. Royal Holiday's policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the Internet, which is beyond Royal Holiday’s and its affiliates' control.

Please keep in mind that whenever You give out information online (for example, via message boards or chat) that information can be collected and used by people You don't know. While Royal Holiday strives to protect their Users' Personal Information and privacy, We cannot guarantee the security of any information You disclose online, and You disclose such information at Your own risk.

The security of all information associated with Our Users is an important concern to Us. We exercise care in providing secure transmission of Your information from Your computer to Our servers. 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, Royal Holiday cannot ensure or warrant the security of any Personal 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, Royal Holiday uses industry standard efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of Your Personal Information, such as firewalls and Secure Socket Layers. However, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet.
