Information We Collect and How We Use It
GENERAL
We only collect personally identifiable information on a voluntary basis. We do not require that you provide this information to access our sites, and we do not require you to disclose more information than is reasonably needed to participate in an activity on our sites. We collect personally identifiable information primarily to send email updates and news, enter promotions and notify subsequent winners, send brochures, etc., via regular mail to subscribers, and respond to your questions or suggestions.
Personal Information means any information that may be used to identify an
individual, including, but not limited to, a first and last name, a home or
other physical address, phone numbers and an email address or other contact information, whether
at work or at home.
We do not sell any information we gather on our Websites to anyone outside of The Pier Hotel, and its affiliates, without prior consent, except (1) in cases where we believe in good faith that we have a legal obligation to disclose such information, and (2) to certain suppliers that assist The Pier Hotel, and its affiliates, in maintaining and managing the activities on its Website. Please be assured that these suppliers are legally obligated to maintain the confidentiality of this information and do not acquire the rights to use your information for their own benefit.
We may share non-identifiable aggregate information about our users (for example, the % of male and female visitors to our sites) with advertisers, business partners, sponsors, and other third parties in an effort to customize or enhance the content and advertising on our sites for our users.
We do reserve the right, in connection with the potential sale or transfer of the interests of The Pier Hotel, and its subsidiaries and affiliates, to sell or transfer your information (including but not limited to your address, name, age, gender, zip code, state, and country of residency and other information that you provide through other communications) to a third party entity that (1) concentrates its business in a similar practice or service, (2) agrees to be The Pier Hotel successor in interest with regard to the maintenance and protection of the information collected, and (3) agrees to the obligations of this privacy policy.
COOKIES
The Pier Hotel may use "cookies" to enhance your experience on our sites. The cookies used by The Pier Hotel do not contain any personally identifiable information and cannot profile your system or collect information from your hard drive. You are not identified by name or email address, but rather by a string of numbers that we assign the first time you visit our site.
To protect your privacy, we have adopted the following principles:
* NOTICE
* CHOICE
* SECURITY
* ACCESS/ACCURACY
NOTICE
Where ThePierHotel.com collects Personal Information on the web, we
intend to post a purpose statement that explains why Personal Information will
be collected and whether we plan to share such Personal Information outside
of The Pier Hotel or those working on our behalf. We do not intend to transfer Personal Information without
your consent to third parties who are not bound to act on our
behalf unless such transfer is legally required.
CHOICE
You may choose whether or not to provide Personal Information to ThePierHotel.com.
The notice we intend to provide where we collect
Personal Information on the Web should help you to make this choice. If you
choose not to provide the Personal Information we request, you can still visit
most of our Web site, but you may be unable to access
certain options, offers, and services that involve our interaction with you.
If you chose to have a relationship with us, such as a
contractual or other business relationship or partnership, we will naturally
continue to contact you in connection with that business relationship.
SECURITY
Wherever your Personal Information may be held within The Pier Hotel
or on its behalf, we intend to take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect
the Personal Information that you share with us from unauthorized access or
disclosure. We employ appropriate security measures to protect the loss, misuse
and alteration of information under our control. However, as no online data transmission
can be guaranteed totally secure, we (like all Websites) cannot warrant 100% security
of any information you transmit to us on our Websites.
ACCESS/ACCURACY
To the extent that you do provide us with Personal Information, we
wish to maintain accurate Personal Information. Where we collect
Personal Information from you on the Web, our goal is to provide a means of
contacting us should you need to update or correct that
Information. If for any reason those means are unavailable or inaccessible,
you may send updates and corrections about your Personal Information to info@thepierhotel.com
and we will make reasonable efforts to incorporate the
changes in your Personal Information that we hold as soon as practicable.
THIRD PARTY SERVICES
Third parties may provide certain services available on ThePierHotel.com on
our behalf. We may provide information,
including Personal Information, that we collect on the
Web to third-party service providers to help us deliver programs, products,
information, and services. Service providers are also an important means by
which we maintain our Web site and mailing lists. We
will take reasonable steps to ensure that these third-party
service providers are obligated to protect Personal Information on our behalf.
We do not intend to transfer Personal Information without
your consent to third parties who are not bound to act on our
behalf unless such transfer is legally required. Similarly, it is against
our policy to sell Personal Information collected online
without consent.
LINKS TO OTHER SITES
Neither The Pier Hotel, nor any of its affiliates, shall have any responsibility of nature whatsoever for other Websites linked to this site, or any information contained thereon, none of which has been verified or endorsed by either The Pier Hotel or any of its affiliates.
CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
We are not structured to attract children. Accordingly,
we do not intend to collect Personal Information from anyone we know to be under
13 years of age.
COMMITMENT
While we cannot guarantee privacy perfection, we will address any issue to the best of our abilities as soon as possible.
YOUR CONSENT
By using this Web site, you consent to the terms of our Online Privacy Policy
and to The Pier Hotel's processing of Personal Information for the
purposes given above as well as those explained where we
collect Personal Information on the Web. Should the Online Privacy Policy change,
we intend to take every reasonable step to ensure that these changes are brought
to your attention by posting all changes prominently on our web site for a reasonable
period of time.
