or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore
has a choice whether or not to disclose this information.
The requested information typically includes contact information

Security
Londontravelhotel.com takes every precaution to protect
our user's information. When users submit sensitive information
via the website, their information is protected both online
and off-line.
When our reservation order form asks users to enter sensitive
information (such as credit card number), that information
is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption
software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page,
such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of
web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft
Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked,
or open, when users are just surfing.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information
online, we also do everything in our power to protect
user-information off-line. All of our user's information,
not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is
restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the
information to perform a specific job (for example, our
billing clerk or a customer service representative) are
granted access to personally identifiable information.
Furthermore, all employees are kept up-to-date on our
security and privacy practices. Every time new policies
are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded
about the importance we place on privacy, and what they
can do to ensure our user's information is protected.
Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable
information are in a secure environment, in a locked facility.
If users have any questions about the security at our
website, users can send an email to Customer care .
Supplementation of Information
In order for this Web site to properly fulfill its obligation
to users it is necessary for us to supplement the information
we receive with information from third party sources.

Correcting/Updating/Deleting/Deactivating Personal Information
If a user's personally identifiable information (such
as zip code, phone, email or postal address) changes or
if a user no longer desires our service, we provide a
way to correct, update or delete/deactivate user's personally
identifiable information. Members can change their personal
information on the member profile page of our website.
Members and users can all email our Customer Support at
Customer care or contact us by telephone or postal mail
at the contact information listed below.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post
those changes to this privacy statement, the homepage,
and other places we deem appropriate so our users are
always aware of what information we collect, how we use
it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose
it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy
policy under which the information was collected.
If, however, we are going to use user's personally identifiable
information in a manner different from that stated at
the time of collection we will notify users via email.
Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their
information in this different manner. However, if users
have opted out of all communication with the site, or
deleted/deactivated their account, then they will not
be contacted, nor will their personal information be used
in this new manner. In addition, if we make any material
changes in our privacy practices that do not affect user
information already stored in our database, we will post
a prominent notice on our Web site notifying users of
the change. In some cases where we post a notice we will
also email users, who have opted to receive communications
from us, notifying them of the changes in our privacy
practices.
