Privacy Policy

TPG Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (together with its affiliates, “TPG”, “we” “our” or “us”) is widely recognized as one of the nation’s premier hotel management companies.

We are committed to protecting your privacy, and this Privacy Policy (“Policy”) will help you understand how we collect and process personal information from those who use of any our websites, mobile apps or related online and offline services that reference these Terms (collectively, the “Services”). This policy also describes what we will and will not do with the information we collect, and your choices about the collection and use of your information. If you have a business relationship with us, the contractual terms of that relationship will control in the event of any conflict. Many hotels we operate will reference a particular hotel brand’s terms and privacy policy (collectively, “Brand Terms”) instead of this Policy, and in that event those Brand Terms will apply.

By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract with us, and agree to be bound and abide by our Terms.

PLEASE SEE SECTIONS 11-13 OF OUR TERMS REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS IN ANY DISPUTE INVOLVING OUR SERVICES, INCLUDING MANDATORY ARBITRATION, A WAIVER TO A JURY TRIAL OR CLASS ACTION.

Cookies are a commonly-used web technology that allow websites to store and retrieve certain information on a user’s system, and track users’ online activities.

You can opt back in to targeting cookies there as well, and opt back in to data extracts by contacting us as directed below. Our Services also endeavor to process “Global Privacy Control” (GPC) signals from web browsers by automatically opting-out website visitors from third party targeting cookies on the visited website, although GPC technology is not fully developed and it is not yet supported by all browsers.

Otherwise, please contact us as provided below to exercise any of these requests. You may authorize another person (your “agent”) to submit a request on your behalf the same way.

We will aim to complete your requests as soon as reasonably practicable and consistent with any applicable laws.

You also have the right at any time to opt out of (i) selling or sharing of your personal information to third parties, and (ii) targeted advertising through third parties. We do not transfer your personal information

to third parties in exchange for money but information may be shared with certain third party advertising partners for our targeted advertising purposes through targeting cookies on our Services. Please visit “Your Privacy Choices” to opt-out of third party targeting cookies. As noted above, we also endeavor to process GPC signals from web browsers by automatically opting-out such visitors from third party targeting cookies.

Privacy laws may provide you with other opt-out rights which are inapplicable to us. In particular, we do not engage in impactful profiling activities with respect to customers, and we do not collect, use or disclose sensitive personal information (such as government identification number, precise geolocation, financial account credentials, etc.) except for the specific purpose(s) that you provide it.

We may not, and will not, discriminate against any individual for exercising their privacy rights, including those provided by the applicable privacy laws. Please note that we may otherwise continue to share your personal information with our affiliates and service providers, and as otherwise directed by you, for the purposes described in this Policy.

7.2 Residents of California Only

This Section is provided specifically for California residents.

• Categories of information. In at least the past 12 months, we have collected the categories of personal information described above in this Policy, including: identifiers (such as name, email address, IP address); commercial information (such as guest transactions); internet activity (such as pages visited, product searches); geolocation data (if your browser shares such information); and sensitive personal information (such as account credentials).
• Financial Incentives. We may offer discounts or other benefits to customers enrolled in certain subscription or loyalty programs: Individuals can opt-in to such programs where offered—please refer to such offers for details about each programs’ benefits, terms and conditions, and please note that they are subject to change from time to time. Customers can always opt-out of these programs. We do not generally assign monetary value to customers’ personal information, and promotions activity associated with any subscription or loyalty programs change continually. To the extent California law requires that a value be assigned to such programs, or to the price or service differences they involve, we value the information collected and used under each program as being equal to the value of the discounts or other financial incentives provided in each such program, based upon a practical and good-faith effort to assess, on an aggregate basis for all collected information: (i) the type of information collected in each program (e.g., email address), (ii) the use of such information by us in connection with its marketing activities, (iii) the range of discounts provided (which can depend on each customer’s use of such offers), (iv) the number of total individuals enrolled in the programs, and (v) the products for which the benefits (such as a discount) can apply. These variable factors continue to change over time. This description is without waiver of any proprietary or business confidential information, including trade secrets, and it does not constitute any representation with regard to generally accepted accounting principles or financial accounting standards.
• Privacy rights requests for non-customers. California privacy rights apply to all individuals (not just customers of our Services), including job applicants, current and former employees, contractors and business partners. Job applicants may provide contact information and resume-related information (e.g., past education and experience) as well as complete relevant background checks. Employees receive internal privacy disclosure relevant to them. Contractors and business partners provide business contact information and payment-related information as necessary to facilitate a prospective or actual business relation. Due to the nature of these relationships, the precise collection and use of personal information can vary. All such individuals who are California residents can request additional information about our privacy practices with respect to their information, as well as make the access, deletion, correction and opt-out requests described above, by contacting us as directed below. Please provide sufficient information that we can identify you, and be aware that we may employ a more extensive authentication process to verify your identity before responding to your request.
• Do Not Track. Do Not Track (DNT) is a privacy preference you can set in most browsers but there is no standard interpretation or practice for responding to DNT signals (see https://allaboutdnt.com/ for more information), and we therefore handle all user information consistent with this Notice. We do endeavor to support browser GPC signals as discussed above.
• Direct Marketing. We do not share personal information such as your contact information with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

7.3 Nevada residents

We do not sell personal information as defined by Nevada law (Nevada Revised Statutes, Chapter 603A, Section 1.6). You can submit a request to us regarding the sale of such information via the contact information below (Section X).

8. International Notices

Our Services are controlled and operated by us from the United States and are not generally intended to subject us to the laws or jurisdiction of any state, country, or territory other than those of the United States. Any information that you provide through use of the Services may be stored and processed, transferred between, and accessed from, the United States and other countries which may not guarantee the same level of protection of personal information as the one in which you reside. However, to the extent we are subject to the privacy laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, personal information will be handled in accordance with such jurisdiction’s privacy laws, as applicable.

This section is therefore intended specifically for individuals residing outside of the United States (“US”). This includes residents of the European Economic Area ("EEA") including the European Union ("EU"), the United Kingdom ("UK"), Switzerland and other relevant jurisdictions with respect to privacy and data protection laws to the extent they are applicable to us.

• Legitimate Bases for Processing: Where required by law, all processing of personal information is justified by a legally-recognized basis for processing. In the majority of cases, processing will be justified on one or more of the following bases for processing: (i) The processing is necessary to perform a contract with you (such as if you make a hotel reservation or subscribe to our email marketing); (ii) The processing is necessary for us to comply with a relevant legal obligation, such as keeping accounting records; (iii) The processing is in our legitimate interests, which are not overridden by your interests and fundamental rights. Our legitimate interests are to use guest data and other information we collect to reasonably and responsibly conduct and develop our business activities without abusing any privacy interests or rights of such individuals; and (iv) In some instances, we rely on your consent to our processing (at times as a secondary basis for processing in an abundance of caution).
• Transfer of Personal Information: If you are in the EEA/EU, the UK, Switzerland or another jurisdiction that has imposed similar legal requirements regarding the lawful transfer of personal information from that jurisdiction to another country (e.g., the US), to the extent that we engage in such a transfer of your personal information (a “Cross-Border Transfer”) we will take steps to ensure that such Cross-Border Transfer satisfies known legal requirements. In particular, if we transfer personal information across jurisdictions we will rely on available adequacy decisions, derogations and/or data transfer agreements with standard contractual clauses approved by relevant regulatory authorities to facilitate any transfers with applicable business partners, affiliates and service providers. Some of our hotels have distinct owners or operators, and they may receive data from us as an independent data controller for the purposes described here.
• Exercising You Privacy Rights: Residents of certain jurisdictions are entitled to exercise certain rights under privacy laws applicable to their personal information. The rights described below are, for example, applicable to residents of the EEA/EU, Switzerland and UK. This includes the right to

(a) request access to your personal information; (b) request that we correct inaccurate personal information we hold about you; (c) request that we delete any personal information we hold about you; (d) restrict or object (i.e., withdraw consent) to the processing of personal information we hold about you in some circumstances; and/or (e) receive any personal information we hold about you in a structured and commonly used format. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority if the processing of your personal information infringes applicable law. Please contact us as provided below if you wish to exercise any of your rights, or if you have any inquiries or complaints regarding the processing of your personal information.

9. Online Advertising

10. Links to Other Websites and Third Party Content

Our Services may contain links to other websites or apps. This can include social media integrations. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such other websites or apps, and we encourage you to be aware when you leave our Services and to read the privacy statements of any other website or app that collects personal information.

11. Security and Data Retention

We maintain reasonable security safeguards designed to protect information about our website visitors in our possession and control, and to protect such information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, we cannot ensure the security of any information that you transmit to us, or guarantee that this information will not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed. We will make any legally required disclosures in the event of any compromise of personal information. To the extent the law allows us to provide such notification via email or conspicuous posting on the Services, you agree to accept notice in that form.

We apply a general rule of keeping personal information only for as long as required to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected including (i) to provide you with our Services, such as to maintain account profiles while active and after termination for the purposes described above, and (ii) as reasonably as necessary for legal, tax and accounting requirements, or if required to do so by a legal process, legal authority, or other governmental entity having authority to make the request, for so long as required.

12. Information Related to Minors

Our website and other online Services are not intended for minors under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from minors under 13. We will endeavor to promptly delete any information identified as having been provided by such persons as required by applicable law.

13. Changes to Our Notice

We may change this Policy from time to time. When we do, we will let you know by posting the changed Policy on this page with a new “last updated” date. In some cases, we may also tell you about changes by additional means, such as by posting a notice through the Services or sending an e-mail to you. Changes will become effective when posted. We encourage you to periodically check our Privacy Policy to see if there have been any changes of interest to you. Your continued use of the Services after an update to our Privacy Policy constitutes agreement to the policy as revised.
