Sensitive data: In some cases, in connection with your reservation we may need to collect personal data that is considered sensitive data by the law, such as information about your health (for example, allergies or other health conditions). On such occasions we will only use your personal data for the purposes which we will explain at that time and we will seek your explicit consent.

Some of the personal data we request is necessary for us to perform our contract with you and/or to comply with our legal obligations and if you do not wish to provide us with this personal data, it will affect our ability to provide the services you request to you. If the provision of your personal data is purely voluntary, we will inform you accordingly and, in this case, there will be no implications for you if you do not wish to provide us with it.
4. Where we obtain personal data from
We collect your personal data in the following ways:
When you make a reservation
We collect personal data that you provide to us directly when you make a booking through our websites, by email or phone, or communicate with us.

Property visits
We collect Personal Data when you visit our properties or use on-property services and facilities, such as restaurants, concierge services, spas.
Third parties
You may make a reservation for our services through third-party services such as online restaurant reservation (e.g. OpenTable) or travel-fare aggregator websites. When you use some of these, you provide the reservation details to such parties, who then forward your details to us to finalise and administer your reservation. When you make a reservation on a third-party website, please also take the time to read their privacy notice if you wish to understand how these parties may process your personal data.
You are under no legal obligation to furnish any personal data about you, and the furnishing thereof is at your discretion and at your own free will. However, if you do not furnish certain information about you, we may not be able to provide our services to you.

We use your personal data in the following ways:
• To complete and administer your reservation and stay, including processing your payment, ensuring that your room is available, and provide you with related customer service, including sending confirmations or pre-arrival messages, assist you with meetings, events or celebrations. Such use of your data is necessary to perform our contract with you or, before a reservation is completed, to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract.
• As necessary for our legitimate interests or those of a third party to which we are transferring personal data. Which include the following:

• We may anonymise, aggregate and de-identify the data that we collect and use such anonymised, aggregated and de-identified data for our own internal business purposes, for commercial, statistical, and market research purposes, including conducting research on demographics, interests and behaviour. We sometimes ask our customers to take part in market research. Please see the information provided when you are invited to participate to understand what personal data is collected and how your personal data is used further;

When we process your personal data for our legitimate interests, we make sure to consider and balance any potential impact on you, and your rights under data protection laws. Our legitimate interests do not automatically override your interests.

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data that is based on our legitimate interests, on grounds relating to your particular situation (for more information on your rights, please see ‘Your Data Protection Rights’ section below).
6. Disclosure of your information

In order to provide the services, you request from us, our affiliated businesses may access and process the information which we collect from you for the purposes described above, including offering products and services to you. Our affiliated businesses will only use your data for the purposes for which we originally collected it.
Business transfers
If we sell our business or our company assets are acquired by a third-party personal data held by us about our members, membership applicants or customers may be one of the transferred assets.
Administrative and legal reasons
If we need to disclose your personal data (i) to comply with a legal obligation and/or judicial or regulatory proceedings, a court order, or other legal process.

Any credit/debit card payments and other payments you make through our website will be processed by our third-party payment providers and the payment data you submit will be securely stored and encrypted by our payment service providers using up-to-date industry standards. Please note that we do not ourselves directly process or store the debit/credit card data that you submit.
We may arrange that card or payment data you submit in connection with your reservation is stored for the purpose of processing any future payments that you make. We will store this data in accordance with our legal obligations under applicable law and only for so long as legally permitted. You may choose to opt-out of us holding your card or payment data although this means that you will need to re-supply us with card/payment details for the purpose of making any future purchases or reservations.

Your personal data will be transferred to and stored in countries other than the country in which the information was originally collected, including the United States and other destinations outside of Israel or the European Economic Area (‘EEA’), to our service providers and affiliated businesses for the purposes described above. Please note that the countries concerned may not provide the same legal standards for the protection of your personal data that you have in the Israel, the United Kingdom or EEA. Where we transfer your personal data to countries outside of the EEA we will take all steps to ensure that your personal data will continue to be protected. We will implement appropriate safeguards for the transfer of personal data to our service providers in accordance with the applicable law, such as implementing standard contractual clauses for data transfers. We have implemented data transfer agreements pursuant to applicable data protection law in order to implement appropriate safeguards for the transfer of personal data to Red Earth Resorts and affiliated companies in countries outside of Israel and the EEA.

12. Personal data retention
We will keep your personal data only for as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, or for the duration required by any legal, regulatory, accounting or reporting requirements, whichever is the longer.

We retain information submitted through our website and the other websites we operate for two years following account closure or contact with you, as applicable. When you consent to receive marketing communications, we will keep your data until you unsubscribe.
To determine the appropriate retention period for your personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data, applicable legal requirements or operational retention needs, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means.
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, we will securely destroy your personal data in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. In some circumstances, we may anonymize your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case it is no longer personal data.
