INTERCONTINENTAL ASIANA SAIGON PRIVACY POLICY

Book Online or Call

This privacy policy covers the InterContinental Asiana Saigon Residences websites.


WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect personal information that you choose to provide voluntarily when using our web sites. This information includes your Priority Club® Rewards account. You can use our site without creating an account, but you will need to create an account if you want to take advantage of certain features, such as "Favorite Destinations," "Room/Rate Preferences" and other time saving features. We may also ask for personal information when you contact our Customer Service department. This will allow us to protect your confidentiality by verifying your identity.

Following a stay in one of our hotels, your hotel stay information is collected and stored by our hotels locally, and subsequently transferred to a centralized database. This facilitates aggregated trend analysis used for hotel management purposes such as planning new hotel locations, evaluating hotel amenities, guest preferences, and advertisement planning. In addition, your business with us is valued and we may use the record of your stay to send you via postal mail or email, communications such as guest surveys or promotional offers and benefits. You may “opt-out” or choose to be excluded from these communications by noting this on your guest registration during your hotel stay or by contacting Customer Service. For Customers who do not reside in the United States, and who have not chosen to enroll in the Priority Club® Rewards program, we may contact you regarding your satisfaction with your hotel stay but will not send you any sales promotional communications or special offers unless you have consented to receive such communications.

Our web sites do not intentionally solicit or collect personal information about children under the age of 13. If you are under 13 and would like to use our web site, please ask a parent or guardian for assistance.

Some of our promotional offers have a “Tell A Friend” feature that allows you to have the offer sent to a friend with your comment. If you choose to use this feature, we collect the email address of your friend(s) to facilitate the referral but do not store it for other uses.

WHERE DO WE COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

When you place a hotel reservation, we request your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, credit card number and expiration date. We use this information to process and fulfill your reservation.

When you register for a Priority Club® Rewards account, we ask for your name, mailing address, telephone number, email address and PIN. There is a membership fee for Ambassador that requires credit card information to process. Credit card information is optional for Priority Club® accounts and may be added after you have registered. Additional optional information in your profile is collected for specific services such as check-in conveniences, room preferences, or point transfers to airline or other partner programs. You may access and update your profile in Priority Club® Rewards or Ambassador online at any time, using your membership number and PIN. This data is stored in data bases protected from intrusion and unauthorized viewing by commercially available software products we purchase in good faith from third party suppliers, and you do not have to re-enter it with each visit to our web site. It is also used to recognize you as a repeat customer so we can personalize your shopping experience. Once you become a Priority Club® Rewards member, you will have access to our special features, including "Favorite Destinations", which conveniently stores your most frequented hotels and cities. Priority Club® and Ambassador members receive newsletters and promotional offers from both InterContinental Hotels Group and its program partners, and points statements. Priority Club® and Ambassador member information is shared with program partners, listed in the membership welcome package and newsletters, unless you decline by requesting an “opt-out” of that portion of the program by contacting Priority Club® Rewards or Ambassador service centers. Contact information can be found on our Customer Service page.

When you join the InterContinental Hotels Group Email List, we request your email address in order to send you email on the latest offers, advanced notice of events, and more.

To deliver this information to you, we use a third-party email marketing service that helps us conduct targeted permission-based email campaigns. When registering for our email program, this service company may collect and store personal information you provide on our behalf and have agreed with us it will not share, rent, sell, trade or provide any of this information to parties other than InterContinental Hotels Group. If you are no longer interested in receiving InterContinental Hotels Group Email communications, instructions for removal from the list are included in every email we send you.
