Privacy Policy

Your trust matters to us

Last Updated: January 2024

Introduction

Look, we get it - privacy policies can be pretty boring. But here's the thing: your privacy actually matters to us. We're not just saying that because we have to. When you're up here at Mythos Quinta Vorn, nestled in these beautiful mountains, you deserve to know exactly what happens with your personal info.

This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data when you visit our resort, book a stay, or even just browse our website. We've tried to keep the legal jargon to a minimum, but there's some stuff we gotta cover to keep everything above board.

By using our services or website, you're agreeing to the terms laid out here. If something doesn't sit right with you, please reach out - we're happy to chat about it.

What Information We Collect

Alright, let's break down what we actually need from you:

Personal Details

When you book a room or sign up for our wellness programs, we'll ask for your name, email, phone number, and mailing address. Pretty standard stuff. For payment, we'll need credit card info, but that goes through secure channels (more on that later).

Booking Information

Your reservation details, room preferences, dietary restrictions, special requests - you know, like if you want that suite with the mountain view or if you're allergic to certain spa products. We keep track of your stays so we can make each visit better than the last.

Website Activity

When you're browsing our site, we collect some technical stuff - your IP address, browser type, pages you visit, how long you hang around. It's mostly so we can figure out what's working and what's not on the website.

Communication Records

If you call us, email us, or chat with our team, we might keep records of those conversations. It helps us remember what you asked about and ensures we're giving you consistent info.

Guest Preferences & Feedback

Reviews, survey responses, photos you share with us (yeah, we love seeing those mountain sunrise pics), and any preferences you mention during your stay.

How We Use Your Information

We're not in the business of collecting data just for kicks. Here's what we actually do with your info:

  • Making your reservations happen - Processing bookings, sending confirmations, managing your stay from check-in to check-out.
  • Personalizing your experience - Remembering you like that corner suite, or that you're vegetarian, or that you always book the sunrise yoga class.
  • Keeping you in the loop - Sending booking confirmations, updates about your reservation, and yeah, occasionally telling you about special offers (but you can opt out anytime).
  • Making things better - Analyzing how guests use our facilities so we can improve services, fix problems, and add stuff people actually want.
  • Staying legal - Meeting tax requirements, handling accounting, and complying with Canadian hospitality regulations.
  • Protecting everyone - Preventing fraud, ensuring resort security, and keeping both you and our property safe.

Who We Share Information With

We're not selling your data to random companies - that's not our style. But we do work with some trusted partners:

Service Providers: Companies that help us run the resort - payment processors, booking systems, email platforms, website hosting. They only get access to what they need to do their job, and they're contractually bound to keep your info secure.

Business Partners: Sometimes we partner with local tour operators, transportation services, or activity providers. If you book something through us that involves them, we'll share relevant details - but only what's necessary.

Legal Requirements: If the law requires it, we'll share information with government authorities, law enforcement, or legal processes. We're not happy about it, but we've gotta comply.

Business Transfers: If Mythos Quinta Vorn ever gets sold or merged (not planning on it, but you never know), your information would be part of that transfer. Any new owners would still be bound by this privacy policy.

We will never sell your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. Period.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies - not the delicious kind from our bakery, but small data files that help the site work better. Here's the scoop:

Essential Cookies: These keep the website functioning. They remember what's in your cart, keep you logged in, that sort of thing. You can't really turn these off without breaking the site.

Analytics Cookies: We use these to see how people use our site - which pages are popular, where people get stuck, how long they stay. It's aggregated data, so we're not tracking you specifically.

Marketing Cookies: These help us show you relevant ads if you've visited our site before. You can disable these in your browser settings if they bug you.

Most browsers let you control cookies through their settings. Just heads up - if you disable certain cookies, some parts of our website might not work properly.

How We Protect Your Data

Security's a big deal to us. We use industry-standard measures to keep your information safe:

  • SSL encryption for all data transmitted through our website
  • Secure, encrypted storage systems for your personal information
  • Limited access - only staff who need your info to do their jobs can see it
  • Regular security audits and updates to our systems
  • PCI-compliant payment processing (that's the credit card security standard)

That said, nothing's 100% foolproof on the internet. We do our best, but we can't guarantee absolute security. If there's ever a data breach that affects you, we'll let you know ASAP and tell you what steps to take.

Your Privacy Rights

Under Canadian privacy law (specifically PIPEDA - the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act), you've got some rights when it comes to your data:

You can ask us what personal information we have about you. We'll give you a copy, usually within 30 days. There might be a small fee if it's a really complex request, but we'll let you know upfront.

If we've got something wrong - misspelled your name, old email address, whatever - just let us know and we'll fix it.

Want us to delete your data? We can do that, with some exceptions - like if we need to keep it for legal or accounting reasons. We'll explain what we can and can't delete.

Don't want our promotional emails? No hard feelings. There's an unsubscribe link in every marketing email, or just tell us directly. You'll still get important stuff about your bookings, though.

For things where we asked for your permission, you can change your mind anytime. Just know that withdrawing consent might affect our ability to provide certain services.

To exercise any of these rights, shoot us an email at info@mythosquintavorn.info or call (604) 555-7890. We'll need to verify your identity first (for security reasons), but then we'll get it sorted.

Children's Privacy

Our resort welcomes families, but our website and services aren't designed for kids under 16 to use on their own. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children without parental consent.

If you're booking for your family, you're providing your kids' info as their parent or guardian. If we discover we've accidentally collected information from a child without proper consent, we'll delete it pronto.

Parents - if you think we might have information about your child that we shouldn't have, please contact us right away.

Changes to This Policy

Things change - technology evolves, laws get updated, we add new services. When that happens, we might need to update this privacy policy.

If we make major changes that affect how we use your personal information, we'll let you know - either by email, a notice on our website, or both. The "Last Updated" date at the top will always reflect when the most recent changes were made.

We recommend checking back here once in a while, especially if it's been a year or two since your last visit. Boring? Maybe. But it's good to stay informed.

Questions or Concerns?

Look, privacy policies can raise questions. If something here doesn't make sense, or if you're worried about how we're handling your information, we want to hear from you.
