MotelPlanet.com Privacy Program

In order to provide the best in customer service, we may ask you to share "personal information" -- information unique to you, such as your name, address, and phone number. First and foremost, we want you to understand our policy regarding the collection and use of your personal information.

• Personal Information
  We offer you the flexibility and freedom to complete a travel-related purchase on our Site at any time, and establishing a Personal Account with us is so easy to do. When you create your Personal Account, you will be asked to share with us certain basic personal information, such as your name, e-mail address, and password. Should you choose to do so, you can supplement the basics with your credit card number, travel preferences, and more. After creating your Personal Account, you can visit or update the personal information in your Account at any time. By completing and updating your personal information, you help us tailor our services to better meet your needs.
  
  
• Transaction Information
  In order to complete a travel-related purchase, you will be asked to share with us information required to complete the transaction successfully, such as billing address, credit card number and expiration date, etc.

• When you make travel arrangements, your personal information will be shared with all third-party vendors necessary to successfully complete the transaction -- including the vendors you have selected (for example, hotels) and others who facilitate the transaction (for example, credit card authorization companies).
  
  
• From time to time, you may receive communications from us, including: (i) specific information we want to communicate to you regarding your travel arrangements; (ii) notifications regarding updates or modifications to our Site; and (iii) details regarding any special promotions sponsored by us, such as any rebates, sweepstakes and gift promotions. These communications may be sent by us or by third parties performing services on our behalf.
  
  
• You may also choose to receive from us, or trustworthy third parties acting on our behalf, special promotions that we believe will be valuable to you, including e-mails promoting special travel deals, sponsored by us or third party vendors. To subscribe or unsubscribe to these types of communications, you may modify your Personal Account at any time.
  
  
• From time to time, in an effort to improve our service, we may ask third parties to conduct marketing-research analyses on our behalf and, as such, the information we provide to them is restricted to marketing-research analyses only. Any personal information we provide to such third parties is protected under confidentiality agreements.
  
  
• We may disclose your personal information (i) if you fail to pay amounts due for travel products or services; or (ii) if you violate our Terms of Use or any governmental, regulatory or other enforcement agency law, rule, or regulation. Unless otherwise prohibited by law or our contractual obligations, we may disclose personal information if required to do so by law, court order, or as requested by a governmental or law enforcement authority, or in the good faith believe that disclosure is otherwise necessary or advisable. Such situations may include: to perform, maintain or enforce contracts with our customers; to protect our rights or properties and those of our business affiliates, customers, employees or others; or when we have reason to believe that disclosing the information is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be causing, or who may be threatening to cause, interference with or damage to our rights or properties, whether intentionally or otherwise; or when anyone else could be harmed by such activities.
  
  
• In the event that our Company or this Site or certain of our assets are acquired, your personal information may be one of the transferred assets.

Use of your personal information by third parties distributing promotions on our behalf shall be subject to our Privacy Policy.
