4.2. Uses of information

Third-party plug-ins or add-ons may collect information about your use of the Chalet du Sire website. For example, when you load a page on the site that contains a social plug-in from a third-party site or service, such as a “Like” or “Share” button, you also load content from that third-party site. These interactions are subject to the third party’s privacy practices. In addition, certain cookies allow the third party to recognise your computer or mobile device each time you connect.

Please note that when you use third-party sites or services, the third party’s own terms and privacy practices apply to your use of those sites or services. We select and manage the third-party technologies made available through the Site. However, these remain third-party technologies and are subject to the relevant third party’s privacy policy. For more information, see section 7. If you provide your personal information to third parties, different privacy practices may apply to the use or disclosure of the information you provide to them. We are not responsible for the privacy or security practices of third-party sites or services. We encourage you to read their privacy notices and to ask questions before providing them with your personal information.

  • where we believe in good faith that such processing is reasonably necessary to comply with the law, to prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss, or to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities or suspected fraud.

In these cases, our use of your information may be necessary for our legitimate interests or those of a third party, to ensure the security of our site, prevent harm or wrongdoing, assert or defend legal rights, or prevent damage. Such use may also be necessary to comply with a legal obligation, a court order, or to exercise or defend legally-founded claims.

  1. ABOUT COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

Cookies and other similar technologies (collectively, “Cookie Technologies”) are used by us and our partners. Cookie Technologies serve a number of functions, including helping us understand how you use our website.

7.1. Types of Cookie Technologies

Cookies: These are small data files sent from a server to your browser. They are stored in your browser’s cache and allow a website or a third party to recognise your browser. There are three main types of cookies:

  • Session cookies are specific to a particular visit and carry information as you view different pages, so you don’t have to re-enter information every time you change pages or attempt to make a payment. Session cookies expire and delete themselves automatically after a short period of time — for example, after you leave the Site or close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies remember certain information about your preferences for viewing the Chalet du Sire site, and allow us to recognise you each time you return. Persistent cookies are stored in your browser’s cache or on your mobile device until you choose to delete them or they expire (once a month) and delete themselves.
  • Third-party cookies are placed by a third party and may gather browsing activity across multiple websites and sessions. These are generally a type of persistent cookie, stored until you delete them or they expire based on the period set for each cookie.

Social widgets: These are buttons or icons provided by third-party social media providers that let you interact with social media services when viewing a web page or mobile app screen. These widgets may collect browsing data, which may be received by the third party that provided the widget and is controlled by that third party.

7.2. Purposes of Cookie Technologies

We use Cookie Technologies to recognise you on the Site, to make the Site work well for you, and to personalise your experience. More specifically, we use Cookie Technologies to:

  • Performance and statistical analysis: Certain Cookie Technologies provide performance data on how the Chalet du Sire website operates, to help us improve it. We use these Cookie Technologies to collect information about your use of the Chalet du Sire website, such as pages visited or any errors you may encounter. These Cookie Technologies do not collect personal information, or aggregate information in a way that makes it anonymous. The Chalet du Sire website also uses Google Analytics to help us understand how the site is used. For more information about Google Analytics, see here.

These Cookie Technologies allow a partner to recognise your computer or mobile device each time you visit the Chalet du Sire website. These third parties are required to comply with applicable laws, self-regulatory programmes, and our data protection rules where applicable. However, we do not control these third parties, each of which has its own privacy practices.

7.3. Legal bases for processing

We use certain Cookie Technologies to ensure the proper functioning of the Chalet du Sire website. By using the website after being informed of our use of Cookie Technologies as described in this notice, and where applicable, after providing clear and unambiguous consent, you agree to such use.

7.4. Managing Cookie Technologies

You have the option to control the use of certain Cookie Technologies:

  • Browser settings: You can change your browser settings to reflect your preferences regarding Cookie Technologies. Every browser is different, but these settings are usually found under an “options” or “preferences” menu.
  • Third-party networks: If you do not want Cookie Technologies used to serve interest-based advertisements, you can opt out of interest-based ads via Your Online Choices. Please note that you will continue to receive generic advertisements.
  • Google Analytics: You can opt out of Google Analytics Advertising Features through Google Ads Settings. Google also provides a Google Analytics Browser Opt-out Add-on.
  • Third-party tools: Various third parties provide plug-ins and applications that can help provide you with information about, and limit or block, Cookie Technologies.


 

  1. RETENTION OF YOUR INFORMATION

We will retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to respond to you, or otherwise as needed for the purposes described in this policy. If you no longer want us to use your information, please refer to Section 11 to send us a deletion request.

 

  1. INFORMATION SECURITY

The security of your personal information is very important to us. We follow generally accepted standards to protect the information we collect and receive, both during transmission and once received. We maintain appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect your information against accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss, unauthorised alteration, unauthorised disclosure or access, misuse, and any other unlawful form of processing. This includes, for example, firewalls, encryption, password protection, and other access and authentication controls. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you believe the security of your personal information has been compromised, please contact us as set out in Section 11. If we become aware that your information has been compromised, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law.
