The information we need depends on how you interact with Kinzi. We aim to collect only what is reasonably necessary to provide our hospitality services, operate safely, and meet our legal obligations.
Scope of this policy
This policy applies to personal information handled by Kinzi Apartments Bar & Gardens through our website, reservation and enquiry channels, guest services, property operations, and Kinzi-branded applications or account services that link to this policy.
A third-party website or booking platform may apply its own privacy policy when you use its service. We encourage you to review that policy as well.
Information we collect
Depending on your interaction with us, we may collect:
- Identity and contact details, such as your name, email address, telephone number, address, and identification details where needed for check-in or legal compliance.
- Reservation and stay details, including arrival and departure dates, number of guests, room or event preferences, special requests, and service history.
- Transaction details, such as amounts, payment method, payment references, invoices, and refund records. Payment providers may process additional financial information under their own terms.
- Account details, including sign-in information, profile details, account role, and records of account activity where a Kinzi account is provided.
- Communications, including enquiries, feedback, complaints, reservation messages, and support correspondence.
- Technical and usage details, such as device type, browser, IP address, pages viewed, approximate location, and diagnostic information when you use our digital services.
- Property safety information, which may include access records, incident reports, and CCTV footage in clearly monitored areas where applicable.
If you provide information about another guest, you should have their permission to do so and ensure the information is accurate.
How we use information
We may use personal information to:
- respond to enquiries and create, confirm, manage, or cancel reservations;
- provide accommodation, restaurant, bar, garden, event, transport, and guest-support services;
- manage accounts, authenticate users, and keep our systems secure;
- process payments, issue receipts or invoices, and maintain financial records;
- personalise services and remember guest preferences;
- send service messages and, where allowed, relevant news or offers that you may opt out of;
- protect guests, staff, property, and digital services from misuse, fraud, or security threats;
- analyse and improve our services, website performance, and customer experience; and
- meet legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, safety, and dispute-resolution requirements.
We process information where it is needed to provide a requested service, comply with law, protect legitimate business and safety interests, or where you have given consent.
Retention and security
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described here, including service delivery, account management, safety, dispute handling, and legal or financial record-keeping. Retention periods vary by record type.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. No internet or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure, so please protect your password and notify us promptly if you suspect unauthorised account use.
Your choices and rights
Subject to applicable law and appropriate identity verification, you may ask us to access, correct, update, restrict, object to, or delete personal information we hold about you. You may also withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
Some information may need to be kept where the law requires it or where it is needed to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims. To request account deletion, use our account deletion page. For other privacy requests, contact us using the details below.
Children’s privacy
Our online account services are not directed to children acting independently. A parent, guardian, or responsible adult should make reservations and provide information for a child. If you believe a child has provided personal information without suitable authority, please contact us.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in our services, technology, or legal obligations. The date at the top shows when it was last revised. Material changes may also be highlighted through an appropriate service notice.
