Why is this data collected?

Your contact data is used by Hotel-Discount-Selection.com to make the reservation in the hotel. This data will be passed on to the hotel, directly or by our partners. The hotel uses your contact information to make the reservation, to identify you upon arrival and to contact you in case of changes to the reservation. This data can also be used by Hotel-Discount-Selection.com and/or our partners to communicate with you.
Your booking data tells Hotel-Discount-Selection.com what kind of room you have booked and will be sent to the hotel. Statistical booking data (for example the percentage of customers booking a two star hotel) is used to modify and enhance the product and services offered on the Hotel-Discount-Selection.com website.
Your preferences will be used by Hotel-Discount-Selection.com to provide you with tailor-made information and special offers. Hotel-Discount-Selection.com only asks you for your preferences if you choose to receive information and special offers. Hotel-Discount-Selection.com will only send you information and special offers if you want us to do so. When you register to receive personalised information and special offers you can, at all times, ask Hotel-Discount-Selection.com to stop sending you information and special offers. From that moment on, your preferences will be kept at Hotel-Discount-Selection.com anonymously without any connection to your personal data.
Your internet data will be used to make general statistics about the use of the internet, for example: what type of internet browser is most widely used. These statistics will be used to see if it is possible to make any improvements to the Hotel-Discount-Selection.com website. These statistics can never be traced back to you as an individual.

Credit Card Information.

The majority of hotels require your credit card details in order to guarantee your reservation. When you send your credit card information to Hotel-Discount-Selection.com, it will be passed on to the hotel in which you want to make a booking. When you make a booking at the Hotel-Discount-Selection.com website you automatically enter into an agreement with the hotel you have chosen. This agreement also implies that you adhere to the hotel's cancellation policy.
Please follow cancellation procedures stated in the confirmation e-mail. You may expect to be charged a cancellation fee set forth by the hotel individually. It is international standard hotel practice to charge the equivalent of one night's stay for late cancellations or no-shows.
Hotel-Discount-Selection.com never withdraws any money from your credit card.
The majority of hotels do not withdraw money from your credit card at the time of the reservation. You will pay your hotel bill at the hotel, either on arrival or after your stay. A small number of hotels charge one room night to your credit card right after you have made a reservation. If this is the case, this will be clearly stated on the hotel page.
Your credit card details will be kept at Hotel-Discount-Selection.com until your arrival date at the hotel. After this date the details will be destroyed. You have the option of communicating your credit card information directly to the hotel via phone or fax, and not via Hotel-Discount-Selection.com. You must do so within 24 hours after you have made your reservation. Hotel-Discount-Selection.com strongly urges you not to send your credit card information by e-mail, since this is the most unsafe way to send your credit card details over the internet.

Control over your data.

You have, at all times, the right to view the personal data that is stored about you. You can request your personal data by emailing Hotel-Discount-Selection.com at the following address: privacy@Hotel-Discount-Selection.com. Please state 'request personal data' in the subject line of your e-mail.
