to protecting your privacy. The information we collect from you is
used solely
to process your reservation requests. Please read on for more details

Your consent.
What information do we collect and how do we use it?
When you reserve a room, we need to know your name, email address,
mailing address, credit card number, and credit card expiration date.
This allows us
to process your reservation request and send you your confirmation information.
When you sign up for services like Newsletters, we need only an email
address -- which we use to send the information you requested.
When you enter a contest or other promotional feature, we may ask
for your name, address, and email address so we can administer the
contest and notify winners. We may also host promotions and sweepstakes
that may be sponsored and administered by outside parties. When you
are entered in any sweepstakes or contest simply by making a purchase
from us, only your order number is given to the entity administering
the sweepstakes or contest. When the winning entries are chosen, only
the names and addresses of the winners are shared with the entity administering
the sweepstakes or contest, so that they can notify the winners. When
you enter a sweepstakes or contest through an email entry, your email
entry is sent to the supplier house that we use to help gather entries
for our sweepstakes and contests. When the winners have been selected,
the winners' email addresses may be shared with the entity administering
the sweepstakes, so that they can be notified that they have won. When
you enter a sweepstakes or contest through a mail-in entry, the information
you provide on your entry is sent directly to the entity administering
the sweepstakes or contest. Unless we explicitly notify you in the
terms of the sweepstakes or contest, no other information is shared
by us with third parties in connection with any sweepstakes or contest.
To the extent that any privacy information relating to a sweepstakes
or contest conflicts with the information provided here, the specific
privacy information regarding the sweepstakes or contest will be clearly
stated in an area that will be accessible to potential entrants and
will govern that particular sweepstakes or contest.
We may personalize your experience by using your past reservations
and site behavior to shape our recommendations about the cites, hotels,
and other informatoins that might be of interest to you. We also monitor
customer traffic patterns and site usage to help us develop the design
and layout of the site.
We may also use the information we collect to occasionally notify
you about important functionality changes to the web site, new services,
and special offers we think you'll find valuable. If you would rather
not receive this information, when you receive this email just reply
back and write in the subject UNSUBSCRIBE. We will then remove you
from our mailing list.

How do we protect customer information?
We use the latest encryption technology to keep your personal information
safe. All your ordering information -- including your name, address,
and credit card
number -- is encrypted using a secure server for maximum security. Your credit
card and billing information cannot be read as it travels to our ordering
system. To ensure that your information is even more secure, once we
receive your credit
card information, we store it on a server that isn't accessible from the
Internet. We're so certain that our online reservation systems are
secure that we back
it up with a guarantee. In the unlikely event that you are subject to fraudulent
charges, remember to first notify your credit card provider in accordance
with its reporting rules and procedures. If, for whatever reason, you
are held responsible
for any fraudulent charges made on our site, we will cover the entire liability
for you, up to $50, as long as the unauthorized use of your credit card resulted
through no fault of your own from a reservation made with us while using
our secure server.
Credit card transactions are handled by a third-party financial institution,
which receives the credit card number and other personal identifying
information only to verify the credit card numbers and process transactions.
