B. Information Collected Using Technology
We may also use technology to gather information and data that is used to improve our websites and to enhance the experiences, products, and services offered to customers, members, and other visitors to our websites.
(i) General. We may automatically track and collect data and information relating to your IP address, domain server, device identifiers, web browser, and computer operating system. We may also use cookies, tags, web beacons, geofencing, and other technologies to: facilitate effective site administration; keep track of your reservations and purchases; remember your account information; and track and understand the frequency and manner with which you visit and use our websites. The data and information we collect is used to: enrich your visits to our websites; evaluate and improve our products and services; provide advertisements and offers; analyze and enhance our marketing efforts; communicate with customers and members; administer your account information; and tailor your personal preferences. Cookies are pieces of data sent to your web browser and operating system. Temporary cookies are designed to stay on your computer only while you are visiting our websites, and non-expiring cookies are stored on your hard drive and allow us to collect information such as: date and time of visits to our websites; time spent on the websites; and pages viewed while on the website. We may place both temporary and non-expiring cookies on your computer. Cookies can also store personally identifiable information, including but not limited to your name, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses. Your Internet browsers may offer you the option to refuse cookies. However, doing so may affect your use of some portions of our web services. Our websites are also not, at this time, configured to read or respond to "do not track" settings or signals in your browser headings, which vary by browser provider. Please refer to your browser options or other browser instructional materials to learn more about cookie management.
(ii) Google Analytics and Other Google Technologies. In addition, we may utilize Google Analytics or other Google technologies as a means of collecting data and information relating to those accessing and using our websites.

Information about how Google Analytics and other Google technologies collect and process data and options you may have with regard to the collection of such data is available at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.
C. Information Collected from Third Parties
In some situations, we may also team up with third parties in order to provide, expand, or improve the products, services, and experiences offered to customers, members, and other visitors to our websites. For example, when you make a reservation through us or purchase products or services from us, we may need to interact with outside agencies in connection with processing payments, performing customer authentication, or obtaining credit information. We may also elicit information from our Affiliates or other outside companies to assist with marketing efforts, such as those that collect demographic, interest data, and other consumer information. And when you use social media credentials to login to or interact with one or our websites or respond to an offer or promotion, we may collect information about your social media profile, such as your interests, "likes" and friends list. We use this information, for example, to personalize your experiences and our marketing communications, to enhance our products and services, and to better serve you. You can control this data sharing via options in your social media accounts. We may also obtain contact information and other marketing lead information from our Affiliates, third parties, website "refer-a-friend" options, or social media platforms and may combine it with information we have to contact you for direct marketing offers. In addition, we may obtain information about individuals who are not yet our customers, members, or users of our websites. Information from third parties collected under this Privacy Policy will be treated the same as information that we collected ourselves, and, except as permitted by this Privacy Policy, we will not share such information with other third parties.
4. How Your Information Is Protected
We have technical, administrative and physical safeguards in place to help protect against unauthorized access to, use or disclosure of customer, member, and user information we collect or store. For example, we use secure web pages and encrypted data protocols to protect information transferred through our websites. We do not display or post any images or personal data of customers, members, guests, or users on any of our websites that would be visible to the public without first obtaining written permission and appropriate releases prior to such posting. We also use a third party payment gateway service that enables us to authorize and manage credit card and debit card charges safely via a secure Internet Protocol (IP) connection. Furthermore, employees are trained on the importance of protecting privacy and on the proper access to, and use and disclosure of, customer, member, and user information and data. Under our practices and policies, access to personally identifiable, credit card, and other sensitive information and data is authorized only for those who have a business need for such access. Personally identifiable and other sensitive records are retained only as long as required by law or as otherwise reasonably necessary for business, accounting, tax or legal purposes. Although we strive to protect personal information that we collect, no program is 100% secure, and consequently we cannot guarantee that our safeguards will prevent every unauthorized attempt to access, use or disclose personal information. It is also imperative that you keep your account passwords, membership numbers and any PIN numbers safe and secure. Don't share those with anyone! We maintain security and incident response plans to handle situations involving unauthorized access to private information obtained through our websites and other data collection methods. If you become aware of an issue with the security of information transmitted through any of our websites, please contact us immediately using the contact information provided above in Section 1 of this Privacy Policy, and we will work with you to address any problems.
5. How Your Information Is Used and Shared
A. Sharing Information Among Our Affiliates
Any information or data collected in connection with the access or use of any of our websites or the websites of our Affiliates may be shared among our Company and/or our Affiliates, for a variety of purposes, including but not limited to: communicating with you about your online account(s); communicating with you about matters relating to your memberships or to rental, purchase or other transactions you have made through such websites; providing additional or enhancing customer service; and sending you promotional materials about products and services offered by us or our Affiliates.
B. Sharing Information With Non-Affiliated Third-Parties
We may also share your information, in whole or in part, with the following third-parties: companies that provide advertising, marketing or sales services on our behalf; companies that process and service your accounts; non-financial organizations (such as direct marketing companies and consumer reporting agencies); financial service providers (such as companies engaged in banking, credit card/debit card issuance, administration or processing, consumer financing, or loan processing); companies involved in providing advertising, marketing, promotional, management, or administrative services to resorts, hotels, condominiums, timeshare clubs, vacation clubs, travel clubs, owner associations, or other properties, clubs or programs connected to the products or services offered by us or our Affiliates; companies that develop, host, maintain or administer websites; companies that help us protect and secure your information and the confidentiality of our records; and other vendors and business partners when it is necessary for them to perform work on our behalf. For example, we may provide your credit card information and billing address to our payment processing company solely for the purpose of processing payment for a transaction you have requested. We require that these third parties protect the customer information we provide to them and limit their use of such customer, member, and user data to the purposes for which it was provided. Occasionally, we may also partner with other companies in joint marketing arrangements or to provide co-sponsored or co-branded promotions, products and services and may share your information with such companies. For example, we may co-sponsor a sweepstakes or contest with other companies, or we may provide prizes for sweepstakes sponsored by other companies. If you enter one of these sweepstakes or contests, we may share your information with the co-sponsor or third-party sponsor. All of these third-parties with whom we share information have contractual obligations with us to maintain the confidentiality of your information and their use of your information is typically restricted to specific business purposes and in accordance with any applicable laws.
C. Other Circumstances When Information May Be Shared
We may share your information when you specifically request it or give us permission to do so.

Your information may also be shared in connection with any acquisition, sale, or merger involving our Company or any of our Affiliates or one or more of the business lines, units or functions of our Company or those of any of our Affiliates, regardless of the form of the transaction.
6. Requesting to Not Have Your Personal Information Shared with Non-Affiliated Third Parties
You may direct us to limit the disclosure of personal information about you that we share with non-affiliated third parties.
