    • Tax and customs authorities, public registry authorities, regulators and other authorities;

 

  •  
    • Our business partners, suppliers and sub-contractors for the performance of any contract we enter into with them or you; these include contractors who provide services to you in their own name such as the third-party provider offering services, as well as our other providers acting as processor on our behalf and as instructed by us;

6: PROTECTING PERSONAL INFORMATION

 

Ink will take reasonable measures to: (i) protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction, and (ii) keep personal information accurate and up-to-date as appropriate. Ink maintains a PCI compliance program and an IT compliance program. This compliance program generates audit reports concerning the adequacy and effectiveness of Ink

IT internal controls, including a PCI Attestation of Compliance report addressing the IT general controls over systems that support certain accounting and financial reporting. In the event of a security incident Ink will notify regulators and/or consumers as required by applicable laws or regulations.

We also seek to require our affiliates and service providers with whom we share personal information to exercise reasonable efforts to maintain the confidentiality of personal information about you. For online transactions, we use reasonable technological measures to protect the personal information that you transmit to us via our site. Unfortunately, however, no security system or system of transmitting data over the Internet can be guaranteed to be entirely secure.

For your own privacy protection, please do not send payment card numbers or any other confidential personal information to us via email.

We will not contact you by mobile/text messaging or email to ask for your confidential personal information or payment card details. We will only ask for payment card details by telephone when you are booking a reservation or promotional package. We will not contact you to ask for your Ink account log-in information. If you receive this type of request, you should not respond to it. We also ask that you please notify us at www.inkhotel.com
We have put in place procedures to deal with suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

 

7: INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

Though we do not seek actively to transfer personal data outside the EEA (The European Economic Area is the area in which the Agreement on the EEA provides for the free movement of persons, goods, services and capital within the European Single Market) or countries with an adequate data protection, some of the external third parties we deal with are based outside the EEA or process personal data outside the EEA, so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we look to ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

  • Transferring your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission (as set out above, this especially applies for Switzerland and Israel).

 

  • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe. We do this for example in connection with our providers for booking through travel agents in the US.

 

  • Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe and the US.

 

Please Contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.

 

8:  DATA RETENTION

HOW LONG WILL YOU USE MY PERSONAL DATA FOR?

We will only hold on to your personal identifiable information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any accounting, legal, or reporting requirements.

In some situations you can request to delete your data.
