PRIVACY POLICY
We value your interest in the Peabody Hotel Group and understand the importance of privacy to you.
So that you understand our policies and your options, we have prepared this Privacy Policy to explain
what information we gather about you when you visit our web site, how we use it, and the safeguards
we have in place to protect it. This policy may be updated from time to time, so please check
periodically for changes.
Information we collect and how we use it
Peabody Hotel Group gathers visitor information as needed to provide superior service,
communicate offers that we believe will be of interest to you, and to administer our business.
To better serve you, we may gather information from your visits to Peabody Hotel web sites
in certain instances.
Just Visiting. You do not need to provide personally identifiable information to visit the
Peabody Hotel Group web site. We may collect usage data, such as your browser type and the
pages you visited, but it is not personally identifiable if you do not register or otherwise
provide personally identifiable information to us. This data is collected automatically through
the use of computer "cookies" that monitor on-line behavior so that we can improve our web site
and your on-line experience. (Additional information about how computer cookies work and how to
disable them appears below.)
Registration and Web Forms. When you contact us by email from our web site or register to use
special features and services we offer on Peabody Hotel web sites, we may need to know your name,
e-mail address, mailing address, and details about the services or information you seek. For example,
if you wish to inquire about meeting or banquet accommodations, we need information about you,
your organization and your plans. We will use this information to respond to your RFP request. We
may also use this information to notify you of special events or promotions we think will interest
you. In each instance, this information allows us to process and fulfill your requests, notify you
of your status, and to administer any promotional offers. Members of the media, including
travel press, who wish to register for access to our online Press Room photo library must
contact MaureenBrigid Gonzalez, Director, Public Relations, The Peabody Orlando, at 407-345-4521.
Callers seeking Press Room photo library access will need to provide their name, email address,
mailing address, and information about their assignments and the publications with which they
are affiliated. Callers who qualify will be assigned a password to use along with their user
name for online entry. The information obtained from callers will be used to determine whether
access will be granted. It will also help us to respond to media requests for information and to
customize the site for our media members, while allowing us to protect our photo library. We may
also use the information to notify registrants of important changes to the web site, new Peabody
Hotel Group services and events, and special offers we think the media may find valuable.
Reservation Requests. When you inquire about reservations at one of The Peabody Hotels through a
Peabody Hotel Group web site, you will be transferred to the online reservations web page of
Preferred Hotels & Resorts World Wide, an organization to which we belong and which handles
on-line reservations for all our Peabody Hotels. In this situation, Peabody Hotel Group may
ollect or obtain from Preferred Hotels your name, email address, address and other information
about your reservations inquiry. We use this information in responding to your inquiry. We may
also use this information to notify you of important changes to the web site, new Peabody Hotel
Group services and events, and special offers we think you may find valuable. Please note that
in this instance, you will be providing your information to Preferred Hotels & Resorts World Wide.
As discussed below in "Links," please review Preferred Hotels' privacy policy to learn about
information that it may collect about visitors to its web site and how it uses that information.
Links
You may have reached this site via a link from an independent travel organization to which Peabody
Hotel Group belongs, such as Preferred Hotels. If so, that organization will be identified at the
top of the home page of this web site. In this instance, please be aware that Peabody Hotel Group
may share information collected from your visit with that organization. Further, that organization
may independently collect information from you while you are visiting this web site, so we suggest
that you review its privacy policy.
This web site also may include links (anchored hypertext references) to other web sites whose
privacy practices may differ from ours. Please check those sites' privacy policies, as Peabody
Hotel Group and its affiliates are not responsible for the privacy policies or the content of any
such web sites to which this site may refer you.
How we respect your privacy
If you register with Peabody Hotel Group through a linked site, such as Preferred Hotels,
we may share your information with that specific organization. Except as described in this
Privacy Policy or may be required by law, we do not sell, trade, rent or otherwise share
your personal information to/with others.
This Privacy Policy applies to our current practices. We may decide to change our policies
in the future if we believe that would help us to serve you better. If we decide to share
information with trusted third parties in the future, we will post the revised Privacy Policy
on our web site to explain about the information that will be gathered and the options you
will have regarding participation.
How we protect your information
Peabody Hotel Group maintains practices and procedures designed to ensure the security, integrity
and confidentiality of personal information collected through our web site. We have in place a
firewall to protect the e-mail server to which all personal information is delivered. Additionally,
Peabody uses industry-standard security measures called SSL (for "secure socket layer encryption")
for any credit card information that may be transmitted online. We limit access to the information
to those employees and contractors who need it to carry out their business functions. We educate our
employees about the importance of safeguarding personal information and preventing unauthorized access
, disclosure and use. Of course, Peabody Hotel Group will keep abreast of new technologies
for protecting the accuracy and security of customer information that emerge.
