about you to process the transaction and fulfil your order. This information includes,
but is not limited to, details such as your name, your contact details (email, phone,
fax) and your credit card details. When you submit a request via our email support
forms, we also collect your name and email so that we may respond to your request
or query as quickly as possible.How we use the information
When you become a member of TTHHotels or submit a booking request, we use the collected
information in several ways:
- Personal identification and verification
- To complete your hotel reservation
- To allow us to contact you for customer service, if required
- To make improvements to the TTHHotels web site
We disclose your information to third parties (such as our hotels) only for the
purpose of completing your transaction with us, providing the above services to
you and for the purposes of associated administration. We do not sell, rent or trade
your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
Unless otherwise prohibited by law or our contractual obligations, we may disclose
personal information if required to do so by law, court order, or as requested by
a governmental or law enforcement authority, or in the good faith belief that disclosure
is otherwise necessary or advisable. Such situations may include: to perform, maintain
or enforce contracts with our customers; to protect the rights or properties of
Istanbul Travel, our business affiliates, our customers, or others; or when we have
reason to believe that disclosing the information is necessary to identify, contact,
or bring legal action against someone who may be causing, or who may be threatening
to cause, interference with or damage to our rights or properties, whether intentionally
or otherwise; or when anyone else could be harmed by such activities.
