Privacy Policy

PRIVACY POLICY FOR GUESTS EU

 

1. Introduction

We use your personal information in order to fulfill our commitment to providing an unparalleled guest experience in connection with all of your interactions with TSELIKAS S.A.(the “Purpose”). As part of that undertaking, we are committed to safeguarding the privacy of the personal information that we gather.

As one of our guests or someone else with whom we do business, we collect, use and disclose your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy for Guests EU (this “Policy”).

 

2. The Application of this Policy

This Policy applies to personal information regarding guests and the other individuals from the European Union, United Kingdom and Switzerland with whom we do business or who visit us  and to the use of that personal information in any form, whether oral, electronic and/or written.

This Policy gives effect to our commitment to protect your personal information and has been adopted by all of the separate and distinct legal entities that manage, operate, franchise, license, own and/or provide services operating under or in connection with TSELIKAS S.A . References to “TSELIKAS S.A.”, “we” and “our” throughout this Policy, depending upon the context, collectively refer to those separate and distinct legal entities.

While this Policy is intended to describe the broadest range of our personal information processing activities globally, those processing activities may be more limited in some jurisdictions based on the restrictions of their laws. For example, the laws of a particular country/region may limit the types of personal information we can collect or the manner in which we process that personal information. In those instances, we adjust our internal policies and/or practices to reflect the requirements of local law.

 

3. Types of Personal Information We Collect

The term “personal information” in this Policy refers to information that identifies or is capable of identifying you as an individual. The types of personal information that we process (which may vary by jurisdiction based on applicable law) include:

 

  • your name, gender, personal and work contact details, business title, date and place of birth, nationality, and passport and visa information;
  • guest stay information, including, dates of arrival and departure, goods and services utilised, special requests made, observations about your service preferences (including room and vacation preferences), telephone numbers dialed and faxes, texts and telephone messages received;
  • your credit card details, payment method details and your account details and credentials
  • any information necessary to fulfill special requests (e.g., health conditions that require specific accommodation or services);
  • information collected whilst at a Tselikas Hotel through the use of closed circuit television systems, internet systems (including wired or wireless networks that collect data about your computer, smart or mobile device, or your location), card key and other security and technology systems;
  • information collected whilst you access Tselikas Hotel; and
  • contact and other relevant details concerning the employees of corporate accounts and vendors and other individuals with whom we do business (e.g., travel agents or meeting and event planners);

 

Much of the personal information we process is information that you or someone acting on your behalf knowingly provides to us. However, in other instances, we process personal information that we are able to infer about you based on other information you provide to us or during our interactions with you, or personal information about you that we receive from a third party (such as your travel agent, airline, employer (where your employer books travel for you), or your third party card or loyalty scheme provider). This Policy also applies to the personal information about you that we receive from a third party, unless specifically covered by such third party’s privacy policy.

There may be instances in which the personal information that you provide to us or that we collect is considered Sensitive Personal Information under the privacy laws of some countries or regions. Those laws define “Sensitive Personal Information” to mean personal information from which we can determine or infer an individual’s racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs or other beliefs of a similar nature, membership in a trade union or professional association, physical or mental health or condition, medical treatment, genetic data, biometric information, and information about an individual’s sexual life or sexual orientation. In some very rare instances, financial records may constitute Sensitive Personal Information where you are located. If we rely on consent to process your Sensitive Personal Information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. We only process Sensitive Personal Information in your jurisdiction if and to the extent permitted or required by applicable law.

Save to the extent required by law, you are not obliged to provide us with any of your Sensitive Personal Information, and should you choose not to, this will not prevent you from purchasing any products or services from Tselikas S.A.

 

4.How We Use Personal Information

Subject to applicable laws, we may collect, use and disclose portions of your personal information in order to:

 

  • provide and charge for hotel accommodation and other goods and services;
  • facilitate services on your behalf, including restaurant and transportation transactions;
  • fulfill contractual obligations to you, anyone involved in the process of making your travel arrangements (e.g., travel agents, group travel organizers or your employer)
  • provide for the safety and security of staff, guests and other visitors;
  • administer general record keeping; and
  • meet legal and regulatory requirements;

 

When we process your personal information as one of our guests or someone else with whom we do business, we do so in our legitimate interests (as detailed above), because of legal obligations we are subject to or because the information is required to fulfill contractual obligations to you, anyone involved in making your travel arrangements (e.g., travel agents, group travel organizers or your employer) and vendors (e.g., credit card companiesandairline operators).

Tselikas S.A. uses and retains your personal information for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it is being processed, and in line with our legal and regulatory obligations and risk management guidelines. For example, reservation records are retained for a period of five (5) years following the year in which the reservation was made, and sales contracts are retained for a period of Statute of Limitations plus ten (10) years. Personal information in records may be maintained for longer periods if subject to a legal hold or specific country/region requirement.

 

5.Disclosures of your Personal Information

Circumstances where we might make such disclosure (in addition to those described in Section 4 above) include:

 

5.Legal Requirements

We reserve the right to disclose any personal information we have concerning you if we are compelled to do so by a court of law or lawfully requested to do so by a governmental entity or if we determine it is necessary or desirable to comply with the law or to protect or defend our rights or property in accordance with applicable laws. We also reserve the right to retain personal information collected and to process such personal information to comply with accounting and tax rules and regulations and any specific record retention laws.

When you visit our websites, we collect information about how you use those websites. Examples of such information include the Internet Protocol address automatically assigned to your computer each time you browse the Internet, the date and time of your visit, the pages you access and the amount of time you spend on each page, the type of Internet browser you use, your device’s operating system and the URL of any websites that you visited before and after visiting our website. That information is not linked to you as an individual, but we may keep records of the type of device being used.

 

6.3 Social Media

Our websites may also contain plug-ins and other features that integrate third party social media platforms into our websites. You will be able to activate them manually. If you do so, the third parties who operate these platforms may be able to identify you, they may be able to determine how you use this website and they may link and store this information with your social media profile.

If you activate these plug-ins and other features, you will be doing so at your own risk.

If you visit our website and decide, for example, to purchase a gift certificate, make an airline reservation, rent a car, submit award request forms or apply for a job online, you may be seamlessly linked to websites maintained by third parties with whom we have contracted to provide those services. If you click on a link found on our websites or on any other website, you should always look at the location bar within your browser to determine whether you have been linked to a different website.

You may always choose what personal information (if any) you wish to provide to us. However, if you choose not to provide certain details, some of your experiences with us may be affected (for example, we cannot take a reservation without a name).

If you provide us with your contact details (e.g., postal address, email address, telephone number or fax number), we may contact you to let you know about the products, services, promotions and events offered that we think you may be interested in.

In some jurisdictions, in addition to you agreeing to this Policy, data privacy laws may require us to obtain a separate consent before we send you information that you have not specifically requested. In certain circumstances, your consent may be implied (e.g., where communications are required in order to fulfill your requests and/or where you have volunteered information for use by us). In other cases, we may seek your consent expressly in accordance with applicable laws (e.g., where the information collected is regarded to be Sensitive Personal Information under local regulations).

 

8.Updating or Accessing Your Personal Information

Under data protection law in Europe, you have various rights in relation to the personal information about you that we process.

With some limited exceptions, you have rights to access and update personal information held about you. If you want to inquire about any personal information we may have about you, you can do so by sending us a written request by letter or email to the addresses set out in Section 10 below. Please be sure to include your full name, address and telephone number and a copy of a document evidencing your identity (such as an ID card or passport) so we can ascertain your identity and whether we have any personal information regarding you, or in case we need to contact you to obtain any additional information we may require to make that determination. Where you make more than one request in quick succession, we may respond to your subsequent request by referring to our earlier response and only identifying any items that have changed materially.

You may request that we correct, delete, and/or stop or restrict processing or using personal information that we hold about you by sending a letter or email to the addresses set out in Section 10 below. If we agree that the personal information is incorrect, or that the processing should be stopped, we will delete or correct the personal information. If we do not agree that the personal information is incorrect we will tell you that we do not agree, explain our refusal to you and record the fact that you consider that personal information to be incorrect in the relevant file(s).

You may also seek to exercise your right to data portability by sending a letter or email to the addresses set out in Section 10 below.

Finally, you may in some circumstances have the ability to object to the processing of your personal information on the grounds of your particular situation. You may do so by sending us a written request by letter or email to the addresses set out at Section 10 below. If we agree that you are entitled to so object, we will cease to process your personal information.

If you are unhappy with the way we have handled your request, you can escalate your concern to the Chief Privacy Officer by sending an email to privacy@tselikas.gr.

 

9.Changes to this Policy

Just as our business changes constantly, this Policy may also change. Where the Policy changes, we will take appropriate steps to bring the amendment to your attention. To assist you, this Policy has an effective date set out at the end of this document.

 

10.Request for Access to Personal Information/Questions or Complaints

If you have any questions about this Policy, about the processing of your data described, or any concerns or complaints with regard to the administration of the Policy, or if you would like to submit a request to exercise your rights in relation to the personal information that we maintain about you, please contact us by any of the following means:

 

  • by calling one of the reservation numbers located at the web page on www.tselikas.gr;
  • by mail at 5th km Kozanis-Larisas, 50100, Kozani, Greece

 

If you are not satisfied with the response that you receive, you can escalate your concern to the Chief Privacy Officer by sending an email to privacy@tselikas.gr.

While this Policy alone does not create contractual rights, Tselikas S.A. has ensured compliance with some of its legal obligations in some countries in relation to personal information by creating a set of binding standards and policies (known in some countries as binding corporate rules), approved by a number of national privacy regulators. As a result, depending on your circumstances and location, you may be able to enforce your privacy rights using those standards or policies through that regulator or a court. If you would like to know more about these standards and policies, please contact Tselikas S.A.at the address above or the Chief Privacy Officer at the email address above.

All requests for access to your personal information must be submitted in writing by letter or email. We may respond to your request by letter, email, telephone or any other suitable method.
