Newboro House Privacy Policy

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.

  • As a potential or actual client of our business, you are entitled to know our policy.
     
  • Furthermore, if you choose to provide personal information to us by any means, you are also entitled to our assurance that your information will be protected under the Privacy Act and that it will be used only for the specific purposes for which it was provided.
     
  • You are also entitled to know how long your personal information will be kept, where it will be kept, and how to obtain access to your information so that you can request corrections or erasure.
This page explains our policy.

You can view and use the Newboro House Bed & Breakfast home page and browse our Web site without disclosing any personal information.

Once implemented, our quarterly e-mail newsletter will be sent only to subscribers who actively ask to receive it. We hate spam and will not sell, rent, loan, auction, trade, or do anything else with the e-mail address that you entrust to us. You may opt out of your subscription at any time by sending us an e-mail message, by telephoning us, or by writing to us at our postal address (found at the end of this page).

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
  • Credit card number and expiry (for a reservation deposit)
  • 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 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, addresses, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses in a computer database. Credit card information is 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 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. You can reach us by e-mail at
