USA CAMPING COMPANY PRIVACY POLICY / TERMS AND CONDITIONS
USA Camping Company including the properties & websites it manages as defined above, use your personal information in order to fulfill our commitment to providing an unparalleled guest service experience. As part of that undertaking, we are committed to safeguarding the privacy of the personal information that we gather.

As one of our guests, you understand and agree that we collect, use and disclose your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy for Guests (this “Policy”).

TYPES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
The term “personal information” in this Policy refers to information which does 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, home and work contact details, business title, date and place of birth, nationality;
  • guest stay information, including the properties where you have stayed, date of arrival and departure, goods and services purchased, special requests made, observations about your service preferences (including room and holiday preferences),
  • your credit card details;
  • any information necessary to fulfill special requests (e.g., health conditions that require specific accommodation, purchase of goods and services);
  • information you provide regarding your marketing preferences or in the course of participating in surveys, contests or promotional offers;
  • information collected through the use of closed circuit television systems, card key and other security systems; 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).

Most of the personal information we process is information that you or someone acting on your behalf knowingly provides to us. However, in some instances, we process personal information that we are able to infer about you based on other information you provide to us or on our interactions with you, or personal information about you that we receive from a third party.

HOW WE USE INFORMATION
Demographic and profile data is collected at our site, and we use this data in two main ways:

  • First, we analyze visitor information in aggregate, which means that we collect information about thousands of site visits and analyze it as a whole. This kind of study involves looking for trends among many visitors to our site, rather than analyzing information about any individual visitor. Examples include researching which parts of the site are accessed most frequently or determining which products are most attractive to our users.
  • Second, we may use specific information you provide to help us customize our communications with you and improve our service to you when you visit any USA Camping Company property, to conduct market research, customer satisfaction and quality assurance surveys and to direct marketing and sales promotions. For instance, if you inform us of a room or service preference, we will attempt to satisfy that request when you visit us in the future and may send you promotions relating to that preference.

We use third parties to build and manage these communication and preference systems, and our arrangements with these third parties prohibit them from disclosing your personal information.
Specifically, subject to applicable laws, we may collect, use and disclose relevant portions of your personal information in order to:

  • provide and charge for the accommodation and other goods and services you purchase;
  • provide you with a better, more personalized level of service;
  • administer a rewards program;
  • 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) and vendors (e.g., credit card companies, airline operators and other loyalty programs);
  • conduct market research, customer satisfaction and quality assurance surveys, direct marketing and sales promotions;
  • respond to requests for information and services;
  • provide for the safety and security of staff, guests and other visitors;
  • correspond with you about your stay with us
  • administer general record keeping; and
  • meet legal and regulatory requirements

SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We reveal Personally Identifiable Information about you to unaffiliated third parties if:

  • you request or authorize it through our marketing platforms, reservation systems, or verbally;
  • the information is provided to help complete a transaction for you;
  • the information is provided to comply with the law, applicable regulations, court orders or subpoenas, to enforce our Terms of Use or other agreements, or to protect our rights, property or safety or the rights, property or safety of our users or others (e.g., to a consumer reporting agency for fraud protection etc.);
  • the information is provided to our agents, outside vendors or service providers to perform functions on our behalf (e.g., analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing customer service, processing orders, etc.);or
  • to others as described in this Privacy Policy.

UNSUBSCRIBING
Every e-mail communication from USA Camping Company or its authorized agents, excepting reservation confirmations and the like, will contain clear and obvious instructions for how you can remove yourself from that mailing list (“Opt-out”).
We will try to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable. If you opt-out, we may still send you important administrative messages, from which you cannot opt-out.

CHOICE OF USE OF PERSONAL DATA
If you would like to review, correct, update, suppress or delete Personal Information that you have provided to us, contact us at team@usacampingcompany.com. In your request, please make clear what Personal Information you would like to have changed, whether you would like to have the Personal Information you have provided us suppressed from our database, or otherwise let us know what limitations you would like to put on our use of the Personal Information you have provided us. For your protection, we may only implement requests with respect to the Personal Information associated with the particular email address that you use to send us your request, and we may need to verify your identity before implementing your request. We will try to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable.

RETENTION PERIOD
We will retain your Personal Information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Please note that we may need to retain certain information for recordkeeping purposes and/or to complete any transactions that you began prior to requesting such change or deletion. There may also be residual information that will remain within our databases and other records and which will not be removed.

THIRD-PARTY INTERNET SITES
Third party Internet sites available through advertising and other links on our site have separate privacy and data collection practices. 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.

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.

We also use cookies to improve your experience and to deliver information and fresh content relevant to your interests. Cookies are also used to collect anonymous information on the pages you visit so we can improve our overall guest services. Some cookies will expire as soon as you leave our site, and others will remain on your browser so we can recognize you when you return to our site.
