Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know such information. Our websites may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins and apps. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you. We do not control these third-party websites and apps and are not responsible for their privacy statements. When you leave our websites, we encourage you to read the privacy notice of every website and app you visit.

CCTV and photography

Please note that for your safety and security, CCTV is in operation at the Hotel (both inside and at the entrance(s) to and in any outdoor areas of the Hotel). Such CCTV footage is retained for up to 30 days following initial collection. We occasionally take videos and photos in the Hotel for use on our websites, publications and social media but, unless you have specifically consented, you will never be the sole focus of these images (unless you have specifically consented to this). If you do see an image of you which we have taken which you would like us to remove from the relevant media and stop using, please contact us to let us know using the details set out below.

How long will we keep your information for?

Generally, we will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements. Hotel reservation: where we are holding your personal data to enable us to fulfil a reservation, it will be held for 400 days following the date such reservation has been completed (i.e. the date on which you check out) unless you have chosen to join our mailing list (in which case please see below). Other bookings: where we are holding your personal data to enable us to carry out a booking for our event / conference / dining facilities, it will be held for up to six years following the date such booking has been completed (i.e. the date on which your booking takes place or ends), unless you have chosen to join our mailing list (in which case, please see below). Mailing lists: where we are holding your personal data on any of our mailing databases, we will keep this for such time as you wish to continue to be part of our mailing list (i.e. until you “opt-out”). We may, at our discretion, choose not to keep your personal data if you have not engaged with us (made an enquiry, reservation, opened an email, clicked-through from an email etc.) for a period of 3 years or more. Wi-fi access: where we are holding your personal data for the purpose of allowing you access to Wi-fi in one of our venues, we will hold this for one month following your most recent login unless you have chosen to join our mailing list (in which case please see above). Payment processing: where we are holding your personal data for payment processing reasons, such personal data will be retained for no more than 90 days. General enquiries: where we are holding your personal data to deal with an enquiry you have submitted (where you have not otherwise engaged with us in relation to our services), it will be held for such period as is necessary to ensure that your query has been dealt with fully and properly in accordance with our usual standards (this will normally be around 90 days following the date of collection).
