Security

We use procedural and technical safeguards to protect your personal information against loss or theft as well as unauthorized access and disclosure to protect your privacy, including monitoring for intrusion attempts, encryption technology, “firewalls,” Secure Socket Layers (SSL), and security audits and inspections. We treat data as an asset that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. Your information is stored behind a secure server via multiple encryption methods as well as a Secure Socket Layer on the site. Information stored on the server is only available to a select number of people that have access to these records. The privacy of communication over the internet cannot be guaranteed because the internet is not a secure medium. One Hyde Park does not assume any responsibility for any harm, loss, or damage you may experience or incur by the sending of personal or confidential information over the internet by or to One Hyde Park. If you have any questions about the security of our website, you can send an e- mail to us; info@onehydepark.co.za

Information Collected

We collect two kinds of information from visitors to the Site, personal and non-personal information. Personal information includes, for example: name, email address, and physical address, including city and state. Non-personal information includes, for example: search preferences, product searches, merchant searches, and general demographics. Our primary purpose in collecting personal and non-personal information is to provide you with a safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. This allows us to provide services and features that most likely meet your needs, and to customize our service to make your experience safer and easier. We only collect information about you that we consider necessary for achieving this purpose.

In general, you can browse the Site without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. Once you give us your personal information, you are no longer anonymous to us. If you choose to use our services, we may require you to provide contact and identity information, billing information, and other personal information as indicated on the forms throughout the Site.

Where possible, we indicate which fields are required and which fields are optional. You always have the option to not provide information by choosing not to use a particular service or feature.

Technologies such as cookies, beacons, tags, and scripts are used by One Hyde Park and our affiliates, analytics providers, or our online customer support provider. These technologies are used in analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by these companies on an individual as well as aggregated basis.

We use cookies, including “necessary,” “preferences,” “analytics and performance,” and “advertising” cookies, some of which may be third-party cookies, for the reasons outlined in this Privacy Policy, including for keeping the Site functioning and for security, current and historical search information, authentication and affiliate source, analyzing aggregate user behavior, and sending personalized advertisements of interest to users. Users can control the use of cookies at the individual browser level. If you reject cookies, you may still use our site, but your ability to use some features or areas of our site may be limited or not available.

We partner with a third-party ad network to either display advertising on our Site or to manage our advertising on other sites.

Our ad network partner uses cookies and web beacons to collect non-personal information about your activities on this and other websites to provide you targeted advertising based upon your interests. If you wish to not have this information used for the purpose of serving you targeted ads, you may opt out by emailing us. Please note this does not opt you out of being served advertising. We also gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes the IP addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We may combine this automatically collected log information with other information we collect about you. We use this information to review trends, to administer our website, to track users’ movements around the Site and to gather demographic information about our customers.

If you have chosen to receive marketing messages from us about our products and services, we may use information from our log files, cookies, or pixel tags to help us make those communications more useful to you. We also get information from your transactions with us, our affiliates, or non-affiliated third parties, such as account activity and your purchase information. We also use information from third parties, including public information, such as verification services and consumer reporting agencies (to comply with regulatory requirements, ensure data accuracy, and prevent fraud, for example), or from other sources. We use this information to develop, offer, and deliver our products and services, to process transactions in your accounts, and to obey legal and regulatory requirements. We limit the collection and use of customer information to the minimum we require to deliver great service to our customers (including telling our customers about our property, deals, and other opportunities through email) and to run our business.

Retention of Information

We will retain your personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your personal information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

Use of Information

When you search for or book a reservation, your information is transferred to companies related to our platform, including the respective hotel where you book, as necessary and in order to provide and fulfill your booking requests. In other words, you are using the Site to transfer your information to and to interact with these third parties, and we use your personal information to facilitate the services you request. We do not transfer or disclose your personal information to third parties absent this use or direction by you. Your personal information is not sold. We use your personal information in the file we maintain about you, and other information we obtain from your current and past activities on the Site, to measure interest in the third-party products and services we offer; inform you via email about special offers, products, services, and updates; customize your experience; detect and protect us against error, fraud, and other criminal activity; and enforce our terms and conditions of the Site’s use. At times, we may look across multiple users to identify problems and in particular we may examine your personal information to identify users using multiple Customer IDs or aliases. We may compare and review your personal information for errors, omissions, and for accuracy.

By continuing to use the Site, you agree that we may use personal information about you to improve our marketing and promotional efforts, to analyze site usage, improve our content and product offerings, and customize the Site’s content, layout, and services.

If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional email communications, you may opt out of receiving them by following instructions in each email. Our legitimate interests in using and disclosing your information are the purposes listed above.

Disclosure of Your Information

If you do not want us to share your personal information with these companies, contact us through our contact page or at the contact information listed below. However, the following describes some of the ways that your personal information may be disclosed in the normal scope of business to provide you with the ability to order the third-party products and services offered through the Site.

Advertisers. We aggregate (gather up data across all user accounts) personal information and disclose such information in a non-personally identifiable manner to advertisers and other third parties for their marketing and promotional purposes. However, in these situations, we do not disclose to these entities any information that could be used to identify you personally. Certain information, such as your name, email address are not disclosed to these third parties in a personally identifiable manner without your explicit consent.

We collect booking information via our forms that include the collection of personal and financial information. Some of these transaction pages may not appear on onehydepark.co.za pages and we do not control the privacy of the information given on these pages. Once the user submits the info, payment is made and verified, the booking is confirmed and removed from our inventory and passed on to the third-party vendor booking the travel. The booking info then gets passed along to the third party for fulfillment.

We do collect payment and verify credit card info to complete the booking, but we act only as the booking agent. The third party will receive the confirmation request from the guest for the reservation and then their privacy policy would be in effect. We may share information with our service providers that is in aggregate form or as otherwise necessary to fulfill your requests. These companies that act as our service providers are authorized to use your personal information only as necessary to provide these services to us.

Legal Requests. One Hyde Park cooperates with law enforcement bodies, as well as other third parties, for law enforcement purposes, to protect intellectual property rights, and to help protect you and our other customers from bad actors. Therefore, in response to a verified request by law enforcement or other government officials relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity, we can (and you authorize us to) disclose your name, city, state, telephone number, email address, and booking ID history without a subpoena.

Without limiting the above, in an effort to respect your privacy and our ability to keep the community free from bad actors, we will not otherwise disclose your personal information to law enforcement or other government officials without a subpoena, court order, or substantially similar legal procedure, except when we believe in good faith that the disclosure of information is necessary to prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss or report suspected illegal activity. We may also disclose your personal information to any other third party with your prior consent.

Due to the existing regulatory environment, we cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personal information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. By way of example (without limiting the foregoing), we may be forced to disclose personal information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the Site. Therefore, although we use industry standard practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.

Since One Hyde Park does not control the privacy policies of third parties, you are subject to the privacy policies of that third party. We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.
