Some Information you provide to the third parties may be retained by them for their own business purposes, and may not be shared with us.

USE OF INFORMATION

Rentalz or our affiliated companies may use and process Information collected on our Sites or received from third party sources for the following purposes:

If you book a vacation rental through our Sites, we use your Identity/Contact Data, Transaction Data, Financial Data, and other Information you provide in connection with a rental to facilitate a transaction between our users and property owners or managers, including processing payments, emails or phone calls relating to a transaction, and providing related services as needed.

We use your Identity/Contact details and other Information you provide in various communications with you, such as when responding to your inquiries, reminding you to complete a transaction you may have started, reminders about your property listings, and customer service related messages.

If you enter a promotion on our Sites, such as a sweepstakes, we will uses your Identity/Contact data to contact you in connection with that promotion and may send you additional information as described in the rules of that promotion. Some promotions and offers are operated/controlled by us, and others are operated/controlled by our third party partners. If you win a promotion, your acceptance of a prize may allow us to make certain Personal Information public, e.g. posting your name on a winner’s page. See the applicable program’s terms for details.

We use email addresses collected on our Sites for any of the above purposes to periodically send you emails regarding vacation destinations, rental properties, or other offers, products or services we believe may be of interest to you. Note, you may be enrolled in our email communications with your consent or, where allowed, in connection with account registration, participation in a promotion, or a purchase.

We may use Information regarding your preferences, contact information, transactions, and your use of our Sites to personalize our Sites (for example, to show you properties or locations we believe would be of interest to you), for troubleshooting, to improve the functionality and quality of our Sites, and to optimize our Sites to make them more useful to our visitors. This information also allows us to better tailor our content to your needs and to help our affiliated companies, advertisers and property owners to better understand our audience.

Information obtained from cookies and similar technologies may be combined with Personal Information and Other Information in order to create a profile about you. This allows our advertisers to advertise more effectively, and allows our users to receive advertisements that are pertinent to their needs. We may also use Other Information sent to us by your web browser or by cookies to perform statistical analyses of our server logs in order to study the use of various areas of our Sites. We review IP addresses to analyze where we are getting our audience. We may create aggregate reports on our users’ traffic patterns and other user data for current or future affiliated companies, advertisers, sponsors and partners.

TravelPoint Uses

When our Clients use our TravelPoint Services, they upload Personal Information about their own customers into our TravelPoint Service. We then allow our Clients to use that Personal Information to query the Preferences Data in our database, to determine which Preference Data a particular consumer in their database may possess (e.g. to determine the subset of their customer list who may have visited a particular ski resort destination in the past).

If we process Personal Information in connection with our Sites in a way not described in this Privacy Policy, this Privacy Policy will still apply generally, unless otherwise stated when you provide it.

SHARING OF INFORMATION

We may share Information collected through our Sites with various third parties as follows:

In order to facilitate your transaction, streamline our business operations, improve our services, and develop products and services that better meet your interests and needs, we may share all of your Information with our current or future affiliated entities, subsidiaries, and parent companies.

If you inquire or book a rental with us or our affiliated companies, we may share your Identity/Contact information, Transaction data and Financial data with owners or managers of rental properties about which you have inquired or booked on our Sites, or with service providers who process payments and transactions for us.

If you make a payment for a rental property on our Sites, if you pay to subscribe on our Sites, or if we need to pay you in connection with a rental of your property, we may share payment-related information and Identity/Contact data or Transaction data with payment providers and relevant financial institutions as needed to process your payment or in connection with a chargeback or for fraud detection and prevention purposes, and we may also share limited payment information (such as confirmation of a payment being processed, or sending a check for payment) with the property owner/manager or our affiliated entities.

We share relevant Information with companies and organizations that perform services on our behalf (as applicable depending on the services they provide). For example, Information may be accessed by or shared with companies that provide support services to us (such as data storage, web hosting, email services, marketing services, and other services).

We share certain Preference Data and Inference Data in an indirect manner with our Clients when they use our TravelPoint service. For example, if a Client runs a query on a list of their customers’ email addresses to determine which subset of that group has visited a resort destination during a major film festival, the matching data set will have shared our inference about certain people, based on the dates and location of prior travel bookings.

We may share your Personal Information for various marketing and advertising activities. For example, we may share Personal Information with business or marketing partners in connection with promotions, events, products, and services that are promoted, managed, supported, or otherwise undertaken with that third party. If appropriate, these parties may engage in direct marketing or behavioral advertising. We may allow our affiliates and other third parties (such as Facebook, ad exchanges, data management platforms, or ad servers) to operate on our Sites and process data for behavioral advertising (see additional information on Behavior Advertising below). We may also share Information (sometimes including email addresses, often in hashed format) with advertising partners, as part of the marketing of our properties and services on third party sites. You can read additional information about advertising and your rights and choices under “Cookies, Tracking Technologies and Advertising” and “Your Rights and Choices” below.

If you use any social media plugin, API, or other similar feature, use a hashtag or similar link, or otherwise interact with us or our Sites via social media, we may make your post available on our Sites or to the general public. We may share or redisplay Personal Information or other information in the post to the extent permitted by the relevant social media service.

If we determine in good faith, that disclosure is appropriate to comply with the law (or respond to any legal process such as a court order or subpoena, government requests in the U.S. or other countries, or a request related to national security in accordance with applicable laws) we will share Information to the extent we believe necessary.

We may share Information regarding transactions, payment information, contact information, and other details as may be necessary, with law enforcement, property owners, affiliated entities, or others in order to prevent or investigate a possible crime such as fraud or identity theft, or to protect and defend the rights, properties, or safety of property owners/managers, Rentalz, our affiliated companies or third parties, including to enforce the Terms of Use or other agreements that govern your use of our Sites or rental of properties you have identified through our Sites.

In the event of a natural disaster or other circumstances, we will share information as needed to protect the vital interests of guests, property managers, business partners, our employees, and others.

In connection with corporate transactions, any information collected on our Sites, including without limitation Personal Information, may be transferred to any entity related to Rentalz or any of its affiliated entities in the future, or to another company that has acquired the stock or assets of Rentalz or our affiliated companies, for example, as the result of a sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution or liquidation. If such a transfer occurs, the acquiring company’s use of your Personal Information will still be subject to this Privacy Policy, and the privacy preferences you have expressed to us.
