This Statement is designed to provide you with appropriate

Who is JJW Hotels & Resorts Limited?
This Privacy Statement is issued by JJW Hotels & Resorts
Limited (collectively referred to as "JJW H&R", "we", "us" or
"our" in this Privacy Statement), which includes the direct and
indirect subsidiaries of JJW Hotels & Resorts Limited and
covers information collected and used by us in the course of our
business. When we mention "JJW H&R", "we", "us", or "our" we
are referring to the company that processes your personal
information.
Your information may also be collected and used by JJW H&R
branded hotels. In most cases, these hotels are independently owned
and their use of your information is only covered in this Privacy
Statement where specifically noted.
Information We Collect and How We Use and Share
It
We collect and use personal information if you make a booking
through our reservation system, stay at a JJW H&R branded hotel
or interact with us through our corporate site. We generally
collect this information directly from you, but in some cases we
may collect your information from other sources. For example, we
occasionally run offer campaigns on the hotel websites. In these
cases, we always ask if you are happy for JJW H&R to retain the
personal data of the respondents to the offer. We also collect
information through our third party service providers' use of
technologies such as pixels, web beacons, and similar
technologies.
You do not have to provide us with your information although in
some cases, if you do not, it may mean that you are unable to use
our services. For example, we may be unable to complete any booking
you may wish to make.
There are other times when we collect and use personal
information, for example if you choose to sign up to receive our
newsletters or other special offers and promotions or participate
in one of our other services. In these instances, we will collect
information from you for running and administering the respective
special offer, promotion or service that you have elected to
participate in. The information collected may include personal
details such as your name and address as well as certain
demographic information. In each case, we will collect, use and
secure your information in a manner consistent with the general
principles set out in this Privacy Statement unless we tell you
otherwise.
We also collect information from you when you browse our
website, or participate in certain services at a JJW H&R
branded hotel. In these instances, information such as your country
information, internet protocol ("IP") address, media access control
address and other characteristics about your system or device may
be automatically collected. This information is collected for
functional purposes as well as to improve your experience when
using these services. This information may also be used for
aggregated trend and statistical analysis, and for showing you more
relevant advertisements and messages.
The Legal Basis for Processing Your Personal
Data
We are committed to collecting and using your information in
accordance with applicable data protection laws.
We will only collect, use and share your information where we
are satisfied that we have an appropriate legal basis to do this.
This may be because:
- You have provided your consent to us using the personal
information;
- Our use of your information is necessary to perform our
contract with you, for example, making and managing your
booking;
- Our use of your information is necessary to meet
responsibilities we have to our regulators, tax officials, law
enforcement, or otherwise meet our legal responsibilities;
- Our use of your information is in our legitimate interest as a
commercial organisation, for example to operate and improve our
services and to keep our clients informed about our products and
services (including for targeted advertising) - in these cases, we
will look after your information at all times in a way that is
proportionate and respects your privacy rights and you do have a
right to object to processing.
If you have provided your consent to our processing of your
information you can withdraw this consent at any time by contacting
the Data Control Office on [email protected].
Data Transfer
As we operate via a network of corporate offices, reservation
and service centres, data centres and hotels, it may be necessary
to transfer your information to another EU country outside of the
country where it was originally collected or outside of your
country of residence or nationality. The information that you
provide us during the course of a reservation or through the
provision of any other services may be transferred to any of our
JJW H&R or affiliated entities and hotels for the purposes of
carrying out or facilitating these services. It will also be
necessary to transfer this information to third parties, including,
without limitation, third-party service providers.

requirements, we may use this and other information we collect,

What Rights do You Have Over Your Personal
Information?
Under GDPR, individuals have by far greater ownership of the way
in which they are able to manage their own personal information.
There are now eight areas in which you have rights to, known as the
Data Subject Rights and they are broken down as follows;
Right to Access/Subject Access Requests - The
Right to Access provides you with the opportunity to obtain all the
information JJW Hotels & Resorts Limited hold against you as an
individual (also known as Subject Access Requests). The GDPR allows
JJW Hotels & Resorts Limited one month to provide you with all
the information we hold against you and your address. This will
solely be in relation to the person making the request. We will
review all our manual and electronic data and provide you with
everything accordingly. If your request specifies what
documentation you require, this will assist us in responding to
your request quicker.
Right of Rectification - If you believe that
the information that JJW Hotels & Resorts Limited hold about
yourself is incorrect, inaccurate or incomplete, the right of
rectification ensures that you can contact us and we will update it
accordingly. We will provide you with confirmation once the update
has taken place.
Right to Erasure - Under GDPR, you have the
option for all records of your personal information held by JJW
Hotels & Resorts Limited to be erased. There are however a
number of exemptions to this right, given that we may have legal or
contractual rights to retain your person information. If, however
it is felt that JJW Hotels & Resorts Limited hold information
about you which is no longer necessary for the initial purpose it
was collected, your right to erasure will be granted.
Right to Data Portability - GDPR provides you
with the opportunity for your personal information to be provided
back to you in a portable format. This means that you can transfer
your data to a different provider without the need for you to
provide it again to them.
Right to Withdraw Consent - JJW Hotels &
Resorts Limited like to give you the opportunity to manage the way
in which we communicate with you. Under GDPR, this is known as the
Right to Withdraw Consent. If for any reason, you would no longer
wish for us to contact you, either entirely, or via certain
methods, this right can be used. This simply means that JJW Hotels
& Resorts Limited will update your contact preferences within
our systems, as well as advising third parties with whom we have
supplied your information, of your updated preferences also.
Right to be Informed - This right encompasses
the need for transparency over how we use your data and is the
intention for this entire document. It ensures that JJW Hotels
& Resorts Limited supply appropriate notification about our
processing activities and ensure that they are concise,
transparent, easily accessible, written in clear, plain language
and free of charge.
Right to Restrict Processing - This allows you
the opportunity to let you hold your data but not processes it for
marketing purposes. If you request this right to be actioned, JJW
Hotels & Resorts Limited will place you on a suppression list
where it is no longer processed.
Right to Object - Under GDPR you can object to
processing based on legitimate interest or a task classified as
being in public interest, direct marketing and processing for
purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics.
