COOKIES AND USE OF THE SITE
When consulting our web pages, it is possible that personal information and data will be collected through the voluntary completion of forms that appear on the website; in this case, the party involved must first read the data processing disclosure associated with that processing and consent to management by our company in the manners indicated in said disclosure.
To provide additional information or facilitate browsing by users, our web pages may contain links to other sites we have not created (such as search engines, suppliers of related solutions, etc.). The data processing policies applicable to those sites are not under our control and the protections provided in this disclosure do not extend to them; our company assumes no liability for personal data that may be collected there.
It is also possible to access the Site without the user being requested to provide any personal data. Nevertheless, during normal operation, the IT systems and software responsible for Site functioning acquire certain personal data whose transmission is implicit in the use of internet communication protocols, through the action of files (known as cookies) stored temporarily or permanently on your hard disk and the use of other software components downloaded or activated during browsing.
This information is not collected in order to be associated with identified data subjects, but due to its very nature could, through processing or association, make it possible to identify the user.
This category includes the IP addresses of the computers used by people who connect to the Site, the URL of the resources requested, the time of the request, the size of the file obtained in response, etc. These data are used solely to obtain anonymous statistical information on Site use (such as, in particular, the number of accesses), to check proper Site functioning, and to speed up, improve, or personalize the level of service to users, and are deleted immediately after they are processed.
The provision of data is optional; any refusal to provide this data, or the blocking of cookies or other software components, could make it impossible for us to send the information requested and/or result in improper site functionality.
The data collected will be handled exclusively by the company staff responsible for such and will not be given or communicated to others.
The data could be utilized to ascertain liability in case of hypothetical cybercrimes against the Site or third parties: except for this eventuality, at this time data on web contacts are not stored permanently.
The data controller is LDC Hotels & Resorts. To exercise your above-listed rights, you may call +886-2-2998-6788 or send an email to ldc.service@ldchotels.com.
Detailed information on the use of cookies and consent to their use
Definitions
Cookies are short fragments of text (letters and/or numbers) that allow the web server (the browser) to store information on the customer that will be reused during the same site visit (session cookies) or thereafter, even days later (persistent cookies). Based on user preferences, the individual browser stores cookies on the specific device used (computer, tablet, smartphone). Similar technologies can be used to collect information on user behavior and use of services.
In this document we will use the term “cookies” to refer to cookies and all similar technologies.
Types of cookies
Based on the characteristics and use of cookies, we can distinguish different categories
▪Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies which are indispensable for proper functioning of our site and are used to manage logins and access to the site’s reserved functions, in general to speed up, improve, or personalize the level of service to users. The duration of cookies is either strictly limited to the work session (they are deleted when the browser is closed), or have a longer duration and are used to recognize the visitor’s computer. Their deactivation could compromise the utilization of services accessible through login, while the public portion of the site normally remains usable.
▪Analytical and performance cookies. These are cookies that can be used to anonymously collect and analyze traffic and utilization of the site. While these cookies do not identify the customer, they make it possible, for example, to determine whether said user returns and reconnects at other times. They also make it possible to monitor the system and improve its performance and usability. These cookies may be deactivated with no loss in functionality.
▪Profiling cookies. These are permanent cookies used to identify (both anonymously and not) the user’s preferences and improve his/her browsing experience, in order to send advertising that is in line with preferences expressed while browsing online.
Third party cookies
By visiting a website, cookies may be received from both the site visited (“proprietary”), and from sites managed by other organizations (“third parties”). One example is the presence of social plugins (such as Facebook, Twitter, Google+) whose purpose is to share contents on social networks. The presence of these plugins involves the transmission of cookies from and to all sites managed by third parties. Management of information collected by “third parties” is governed by the relative disclosures, to which reference should be made.
Management of cookies
By using their browser settings, users may decide whether or not to accept cookies.
Attention: total or partial disabling of technical cookies could compromise the utilization of site functionalities reserved to registered users. On the contrary, public contents can still be used even if cookies are completely disabled.
Disabling “third party” cookies has absolutely no negative effect on browsing. The setting can be adjusted specifically for different websites and web applications. In addition, the best browsers make it possible to use different settings for “proprietary” and “third party” cookies.
For example, on Google Chrome, click the English key at the top right corner and select “Settings.” Then select “Show advanced settings” (“Under the hood”) and change the Privacy settings.
