Our Commitment to Protecting the Privacy of Personal Information

Technological growth has revolutionized the way businesses gather, use and disclose information. Emerging technologies require heightened vigilance in the collection, use and disclosure of personal information. We at Lako House are committed to protecting the confidentiality and privacy of personal information we hold about our customers and this Policy reflects that commitment.

What is Personal Information?

Personal information could be used to identify a specific individual. It may include but not be limited to information such as your name, home address, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, billing information (bank account and/or credit card information), IP address, web site URL, matches, absentee instructions and emergency contacts, etc.

How Do We Use Personal Information?

We require your personal information in order to establish your record (i.e. as a guest) and we collect the information from you.

We use your personal information for the purposes reasonably required in order for us to carry on business, including the following:

• identify you;
• ensure our records are correct;
• establish and administer your reservation with us;
• process billing of your reservation with us;
• deal with an emergency through alternate contacts;
• create and maintain an effective business relationship; and
• send information to you.

Disclosing Personal Information

Situations where we may be required to disclose personal information about our customers or other individuals with whom we do business are varied. Some examples are:

To Assist the owner: We disclose guest information to the owner when the guest has expressed interest in booking at Lako House

To Assist a Guest: We disclose owner information to a guest who has expressed interest in booking at Lako House.

To Assist a Customer’s Agent: We may disclose an individual’s personal information to a person whom we reasonably believe to be acting as the individual’s agent for the purpose of gathering that information. For example, we may disclose information to an individual’s legal counsel if we are satisfied that that person is seeking the information at the request of the individual.

To Facilitate Accounting Process: We may disclose information for the purpose of collecting on a debt obligation owing to us.

To Protect a Person or Persons from Imminent Danger: To a public authority, or its agent, if we reasonably believe that the disclosure is required to preserve life or property from imminent danger, and it appears that the danger could be minimized or avoided by disclosing the information.

Specific Confidential Situations: To third parties in connection with a proposed sale of part or all of our business. In such case, we will obtain the agreement of the third parties to protect the confidentiality of that information.

For Legal Compliance: For law enforcement purposes and to the extent required to comply with legal requirements or regulatory orders.
