The following privacy policy discloses Grant Morris Cruise and Travel Service Limited's practices and policies regarding the gathering and dissemination of personal information.
Personal Information We Collect
When you set up and account with us, or when you make a purchase, we collect certain personal information. That information includes:
1. your complete passport name, address, phone number and email address;
2. credit card information whenever a purchase is made;
3. account preferences, including whether or not you wish to receive our newsletter and website update
information by email;
4. names, titles, business contact information from our corporate and business customer contacts
This information is collected (TICO Regulation) and used for a number of purposes:
- To establish and maintain a commercial relationship with you and to provide you with products and services. Personal contact and credit card information is required to process your purchases. Account information is retained by us. This information is used only for these purposes and is only retained in transaction records required for internal management and auditing purposes, unless you are informed otherwise or you provide your consent.
- To understand your needs and preferences. We maintain a record of the products and services you receive from us, and we may ask you for additional information so that we can serve you better.
- To provide you with information you have requested, and to keep you informed with respect to ongoing changes to our website. Your email address will be used to send you our newsletters and mailings. You can withdraw your consent for such mailings at any time by contacting us as set our below.
- To manage and administer our business. The nature of the Internet is such that it passively and automatically collects certain information about a user's traffic patterns, which may be linked to their Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. These are unique Internet "addresses" assigned to all Web users by their Internet Service Providers (ISP). Server logs record statistical information, such as visitors' IP addresses, type of operating systems, time and duration of visit, web pages requested, and identify visitors by categories such as domains and browser types. These statistics are only used on an aggregate basis and will not contain an information that could identify you personally.
- To meet legal, regulatory, security and processing requirements and otherwise as permitted or required by law.
If we intend to use personal information for purposes not identified to you or as set out above, these other purposes will be described to you at the time of collection or before using the information. We will not use your information for any other purpose without your consent.
