We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy.
This Privacy Policy describes how Getaways and Beyond collects, uses, and safeguards your personal information when you use our website and services.
Our electronic purchase service requires that cardholders provide contact information (including without limitation: name, address, city, state or province, postal code, country, telephone and email), and financial information (including without limitation: name on credit card, credit card number and expiry date, bank account number), and ordering information. This information is collected and used to process the transaction, for internal accounting and fraud control.
Our Web site keeps track of usage data, such as the source address that a page request is coming from, your IP address or domain name, the date and time of the page request, the referring Web site (if any) and other parameters in the URL. The IP addresses we collect on our electronic purchase service are linked to personally identifiable information. This is collected in order to combat fraud during the purchase process. We also use this data to better understand Web site usage in the aggregate so that we know what areas of our Web site users prefer. Automatically collected information is also used for the same purposes as purchaser supplied and merchant supplied information.
Certain information submitted through the electronic purchase service is shared with the merchant from whom the purchaser is purchasing the products / services solely to allow the merchant to fulfill the order. Financial information is also shared with other parties that is necessary to complete transactions, including, without limitation, companies related to Getaways and Beyond, credit card companies, credit card clearing houses and processors, and financial institutions. Getaways and Beyond is acting as an intermediary between the merchant and a purchaser's credit card company or financial institution.
The parties mentioned in the above paragraph, and not Getaways and Beyond, are responsible for their own privacy policies and for maintaining the privacy and confidentiality of all information Getaways and Beyond provides them. If a purchaser or merchant has any questions or concerns about the privacy policies of those parties, it must contact such parties. Except for the above parties, and for use by consultants and professional advisers on Getaways and Beyond's behalf for the uses disclosed herein, Getaways and Beyond does not share personally identifiable information with any other third parties. Getaways and Beyond may, however, provide to third parties aggregate or statistical information that does not disclose personally identifiable information.
No information sent to Getaways and Beyond via email or the website inquiry form is used for any other reason than to respond to and maintain a record of the inquiry. This information is not sent to third parties or retained for mailing list purposes. We will respond to all inquiries within 48 hours.
Getaways and Beyond takes measures to protect and keep information secure. Our Merchants' area, application form and electronic purchase service are secured with SSL encryption. All information collected by Getaways and Beyond is held offline, secured via SSL encryption, and protected by a firewall. Whenever sensitive information is transmitted to Getaways and Beyond through our Web site, such as a credit card number, our server provides 128-bit encryption of the information as it travels across the Internet. Getaways and Beyond restricts internal access to personal information to selected members of our staff.
Getaways and Beyond gives Purchasers the option to remove their information from our database to cancel future communications, to no longer receive our service, or to change their information on our database.
