1. WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We collect information you provide to us, which includes data you give when placing an order, joining as a member or communicating with us in other ways. It can include:

• Your name
• Address
• Phone number
• Email address
• Dietary/ medical information (eg when staying at our properties)

If you choose not to disclose requested information, we may not be able to provide you with certain services.

If you work for us as a contractor or member of staff then we may collect additional information about you (eg emergency contact details, medical conditions). This information is retained for legal reasons, to protect us (including in the event of an insurance or legal claim) and for safeguarding purposes. We take extra care to ensure sensitive personal data (such as health information) is protected.

We sometimes receive personal data about individuals, such as guests, from third parties, for example when we partner with other organisations to host events.

You do not need to disclose any personal information to simply browse our site.

2. HOW YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION IS USED

We process personal information for certain legitimate business purposes, which include the following:

• Where the processing enables us to enhance, modify, personalise or otherwise improve our services and communications.
• To identify and prevent fraud
• To enhance the security of our network and information systems
• To better understand how people interact with our websites
• To provide postal communications to you which we think will be of interest to you
• To determine the effectiveness of our campaigns, advertising and other promotions.
• To provide a personalised service to you when you visit our website.

We also use personal data for administrative purposes including:

• The processing of accommodation and activity requests
• The fulfilment of orders for goods or services
• To respect your choices and preferences (eg if you ask not to receive marketing material, we will keep a record of this to ensure we respect your choice).

In some cases we may also process data to:

• Enter into, or perform, a contract with you
• Comply with a legal duty
• Protect your vital interests (ie to protect someone’s life)

We may carry out research and analysis on our supporters’ data to help us better understand them, improve the relevance and effectiveness of our marketing, and provide a better service to supporters. This may include using demographic or other information to identify common characteristics, interests and preferences.

We may also occasionally use publicly available information about individuals, such as media reports or information on Companies House about business interests, to inform our communication. However, we would much rather talk to you than Google you!

We may aggregate and anonymise personal data before we analyse it so that it can no longer be linked to an identifiable person.

3. MARKETING INFORMATION BY EMAIL

When providing us with email information via our website, you will be given the option to opt-in to receive marketing communications from us. Where you agree, we may send you our regular ‘The Wild Times’ e-newsletter and other occasional emails about Aldourie and our projects.

We will only disclose information when obliged to by law, for purposes of national security, taxation and criminal investigations and the following:

• When we use other companies to provide services on our behalf, e.g. mailing or delivering orders, when using auditors/ advisors or processing credit cards payments
• If we receive a complaint about any content you have posted or transmitted to or from our site, to enforce or apply our Terms and Conditions or if we believe that we need to do so to protect and defend the rights, property or personal safety of Aldourie Limited, our website or our visitors and for other lawful purposes
