General
Resort Residences at GL Orlando, LLC and its and affiliates (“us” or “we” or “Developer”) respect your concerns about privacy and value our relationship with you. This Privacy Policy is intended to inform you of the types of information we collect, as well as our policies and practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of that information through the web pages, tracking devices, interactive features, mobile applications, blogs and their respective contents at our URLs, including www.ritzres.wpmudev.host as well as our Twitter, Facebook and other social networking sites and their respective contents (collectively, the “Sites”), whether accessed via computer, mobile device or other technology.
Please remember that this Privacy Policy only covers your activities while on the Sites; to the extent you visit third party websites, including the websites of our partners, the privacy policies of those websites will govern. Users who reside outside of the United States should note that their information will be held and processed in the United States. In certain circumstances, foreign courts, law enforcement agencies or regulatory agencies may be entitled to access your personal information without notice to you. By accepting this Privacy Policy, whether by establishing an Account (as defined below), signing-in to your Account, accessing the Sites as a guest, or otherwise using the Sites, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing.
Personal Information You Provide
When using the Sites, you will be required to provide information that could reasonably be used to contact you, or to identify you personally, or that otherwise relates to your person, such as your name, mailing or billing address, telephone number, or email address, email preferences, password for your Account and password hint question, and a complete set of credit card information that enables us to receive your payment (including your credit card authorization number) (collectively, “Personal Information”). For example, Developer may collect Personal Information when you register on the Sites, request information, submit comments or participate in some promotion, survey or other feature of the Sites, post or participate on our social media sites, or otherwise communicate or interact with us. The Sites may also ask you to provide other information about yourself, such as demographic information (gender, zip code, age, etc.) or certain information about your preferences, product use and interests.
Information Collected Automatically
Whenever you use the Sites, Developer, as well as any of our third-party advertisers and/or service providers, may use a variety of tools and technologies that automatically or passively collect information about how the Sites are accessed and used (“Usage Information”). Usage Information may include, among other things, browser type, operating system, the page served, the time, the type of content being transmitted (e.g., video content) or application being used, how many users visited the Sites, origin and destination information, subscriber status, telecommunications information and other information. This data helps us to manage our network and provides us with information about the use of the Sites, such as how many visitors visit a specific page on the Sites, how long they stay on that page, and which hyperlinks, if any, they “click” on. This information helps us to keep the Sites fresh and interesting to our visitors and to tailor content to a visitor’s interests. Usage Information is generally non-identifying, but if Developer associates it with you as a specific and identifiable person, Developer treats it as Personal Information.
Device Identifiers
In the course of collecting Usage Information, Developer also automatically collects your IP address, IMEI number, MAC Address or other unique identifier (“Device Identifier”) for the computer, mobile device, Wi-Fi card, technology or other device (collectively, “Device”) you use to access the Sites. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned to your Device when you access a website or its servers, and our computers identify your Device by its Device Identifier. When you visit the Sites, we may view your Device Identifier. We use this information to determine the physical location of your Device. We also may use this information to enhance the Sites and we may associate your Device Identifier with your Personal Information. The technologies used on the Sites to collect Usage Information, including Device Identifiers, may include, without limitation:
