Automatic Decision-Making

AM Resorts Europe does not use automatic decision-making process. If in the future, we start using that technology to process your information we will notify you previously and inform you about your rights.

 

Disclosures of your personal data

We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out above.

  • Internal Third Parties: Other companies in the ALG Group.
  • External Third Parties:
    • Suppliers of accommodation and travel services based within or outside the EEA acting as processors or controllers who provide the services that make up any booking of travel services that you make with us;
    • Service providers acting as processors based within and outside the EEA who provide IT and system administration services;
    • Professional advisers acting as processors or joint controllers including lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers based within and outside the EEA who provide consultancy, banking, legal, insurance and accounting services;
    • Regulatory and governmental bodies and other authorities acting as processors or joint controllers based in within and outside the EEA who require reporting of processing activities in certain circumstances.
  • Specific third parties: Such as Elavon Financial Services DAC, based in UK, who provides a credit card merchant service, and Trisept Solutions LLC, the technology provider behind the Website’s booking platform, and based in the United States.
  • Third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or our assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, then the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this privacy notice.

We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

 

International Transfers of Information

Because of the international nature of our business, we may need to transfer your Personal Information within the ALG group of companies, and to third parties, in connection with the purposes set out in this Policy. For this reason, we may transfer your Personal Information to other countries that may have different laws and data protection compliance requirements to those that apply in the country in which you are located.

In accordance with the above, we may send your Personal Information to the following countries where Apple Leisure Group has operations and partnership with services providers:

  • United States of America
  • Mexico
  • Dominican Republic
  • Panama
  • Curacao
  • Jamaica
  • Costa Rica
  • Spain
  • St Martin
  • Netherlands
  • United Kingdom

We have implemented appropriate technical security measures in order to protect Personal Information during International transfers, in compliance with applicable laws.  

Where you have made a reservation for accommodation or travel arrangements which are located or otherwise due to be fulfilled outside the EEA, we will have to transfer your personal data to the suppliers fulfilling or providing those travel arrangements outside the EEA in order to make your booking and for those suppliers to be able to provide you with the travel arrangements you have booked. Where we are unable to rely on one of the safeguards outlined below when transferring data to those suppliers outside the EEA, we will rely on the derogation under Article 49 of the GDPR in order to transfer your personal data to countries outside the EEA (as the transfer relates to the performance of a contract for your benefit), and you hereby permit us to do so.  You also acknowledge that where your personal data is transferred outside the EEA, controls on data protection may not be as wide as the legal requirements within the EEA.

 

For all other transfers of data, whenever your personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

 

 

 

  • Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the Europe and the US. For further details, see European Commission: EU-US Privacy Shield.

 

Please contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA. Contact details can be found at the bottom of this Privacy Policy.

Data Security

  • We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your Personal Information against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, unauthorized access, and other unlawful or unauthorized forms of Processing, in accordance with applicable law. In certain instances, we may use Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.1 or higher to transfer certain Personal Information to provide protection. However, we are not responsible for any breach of security or for the actions of any third parties.
  • Because the internet is an open system, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will implement reasonable measures to protect your information, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to us using the internet. Any such transmission is at your own risk and you are responsible for ensuring that any Personal Information that you send to us is sent securely.

Data Accuracy

We take every reasonable step to ensure that your Personal Information that we Process is accurate and up to date. When you inform us that your Personal Information is inaccurate we will correct or erase it.

Know Your Rights

  • a copy of what information we collected from you
  • to update/rectify your personal information
  • deletion of your personal information
  • we stop certain types of processing with your information
  • an electronic copy of your data that will be provided in a format that a machine will be able to read

Keep in mind that your information is important to provide you with products and services. Deletion or restriction of certain data may prevent us from providing the services you requested. You also have the right to file a complaint with the EU Data Protection Authorities.

No fee usually required

You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

 

Time limit to respond

We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made several requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

 

Data Minimization

We take every reasonable step to ensure that your personal information collected and processed is limited to what we need to provide you services, or access to the services, described in this Privacy Policy.

Data Retention

We take every reasonable step to ensure that your Personal Information is only Processed and stored for the minimum period necessary for business and legal requirements. We will only use your data for the reasons you provided it to us, and for legal reporting purposes.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

 

By legal and tax purposes we must keep basic information about our customers (including Contact, Identity, Financial and Transaction Data) for six years after they cease being customers.

In some circumstances we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
