Canada’s Privacy Act requires all organizations that collect personal information about individuals to have in place a written policy that explains why and how personal information will be collected, stored, and used. Use of Web Site You can browse the Newboro House Bed and Breakfast Web site without disclosing any personal information. However, anonymous statistics about visits to the site are tracked for the purposes of better understanding our potential clientele and continually improving our service to them. Guest Bookings If you wish to reserve accommodation — including through any automated booking software that may eventually be added to our Web site — we will collect the personal information necessary to handle your booking. This information normally includes • Name • Mailing address • Telephone number(s) • E-mail address (for sending a confirmation) • Credit card number and expiry (to guarantee the room) • Information related to any need you may have for special services We use your individual information only to communicate with you about your reservation, to process your reservation deposit, and to make arrangements for your comfort and convenience while you are our guest. We also use guest information in aggregate to appropriately target our purchases of print and Web advertising. Unless compelled by law to do so, we will not disclose any of your personal information to others under any circumstances. Retention and Safety of Your Information Business records that contain your personal information (for example, room sales) are held for the period required by law. We keep names and e-mail addresses in a computer database. Postal addresses, telephone numbers, and credit card information are kept solely on paper. We take appropriate technical and physical measures to protect the personal data that we collect from unauthorized access or modification, improper use or disclosure, and loss or unlawful destruction. Requests to Us About Your Information To find out if we are keeping personal information about you or to obtain a copy of any data about you that we have on file, you can send an e-mail message to privacy@NewboroHouse.com. Our report will be provided to you free of charge, within seven days of our receiving your request; however, we will require proof of your identity before we release any of your information. At any time, you may request to have the data that we hold about you amended or erased (except for room sales data, which, for legal purposes, must be retained for a statutory period). If you have any questions or concerns about your privacy in connection with your use of our Web site, please let us know.
