The Unbound processes different types of personal data for different purposes. We explain below which personal data we process, and for which purposes.

Guest data
For (the booking of) overnight stays or for renting one of our event spaces, the hotel typically requires your name, address, place of residence, telephone number, date of arrival and departure and your payment details. We can receive these data from third parties with whom you have completed the booking process. We may request additional personal data from you such as your nationality or guest preferences, to enable us to supply you with our products and/or services. We only process health-related data subject to your consent, to enable us to improve our service to you, for example by offering disabled access or complying with dietary restrictions. In addition, we are required by law to check your identity. We will not make a full copy of identity documents. This data will only be used internally and will not be shared with other organisations, for commercial purposes.

Customer service
If you wish to contact us because you have a question, complaint or comment with regard to our hotels, restaurants, services, website(s) or app(s), your contact details will be required, which allows us to contact you or improve our services. If you place an online review or complaint on social media or on a website of a booking partner, we will receive this through the used website and we will use this information to contact you about your complaint or comments or to improve our services.

CCTV monitoring
At the premises of The Unbound there is some CCTV monitoring present for security reasons, this is always kept to a minimum and restricted as much as practically possible in scope and storage.

Licence plates
We may process number plates of vehicles for registration and payment of parking fees. If you use these parking amenities, your license plate number will be registered in order to implement the parking services.

Marketing
To enable us to provide you with offers that interest you, we may collect commercially relevant information about people, such as demographic data. We can collect information about you from third parties including information from our partners and social media sites, according to your data sharing settings on those websites and platforms.

Social media
The Unbound has a presence on various social media e.g. Instagram, Facebook. We may use your personal data when you use functions on these websites and/or apps, such as when you ‘like’ something on Facebook. We can obtain your personal data via our social media in question whenever you use a function of this kind.

Newsletters
When using our services it is possible to sign up for our newsletters. By means of personalized e-mail messages our newsletters will inform you about exclusive deals and you will be sent service messages. Signing up for our newsletter constitutes consent for collecting your email address and send you the newsletter. An unsubscription option is present within each received email.

Application procedure
The Unbound processes data about applicants by means of personal contacts, by post, by email and/or telephone calls. We collect data such as an applicant’s name, gender, contact details, application letters, education level, and employment history. These data are relevant for completing the application procedure and will be deleted by no later than 4 weeks after that procedure is completed. If you give your consent, we may keep your personal data in its records for longer, so that we may once again contact you, in the future.

Employees
By necessity we process personal data of employees, both within the framework of the contract of employment and on the basis of statutory obligations. For information about the processing of personal data of employees refer to your internal contact.

External processing
We provide personal data to our partners so they can process these data for us based on our instructions and in accordance with our privacy policy and other applicable confidentiality and security measures. These partners include IT suppliers for, amongst others, our booking system (MEWS) and restaurant reservations (Formitable).

Obligations
We share personal data if we believe we are required to disclose that data to comply with applicable laws and regulations, legal proceedings, or requests from government agencies. We will provide your personal data if we are required to do so by law. That might be the case, for example, if the police request data from us in the context of a fraud investigation. Another example might involve a request from a Tax Inspector, who is entitled to demand all information that could be relevant to the imposition of taxation. Finally, the municipal authorities can also ask us to provide data to check the tourist tax return. The Unbound enters into agreements with the recipients of your personal data to
ensure that the personal data are handled confidentially, and adequately secured.

Retention period
We do not keep your personal data any longer than necessary, unless the law requires us to keep your personal data for a longer period of time. Our basic principle is that we keep personal data only as long as necessary to enable us to supply you with our products and/or services. After this goal is achieved, we will delete your personal data to the extent possible.

Non-EU processing
The Unbound is authorised to transfer your personal data to foreign countries. Countries within the European Economic Area (EEA) have the same level of personal data protection. Taking account of the general requirements laid down in legislation and regulations governing privacy, we can transfer your personal details to countries within the EEA.

We will only transfer your personal data outside the EEA if the country in question offers a suitable level of protection.

Security
We maintain a high level of security with regard to guest data. Guest data is stored incrypted. Access to data by The Unbound employees is based on necessity, given the position of the respective employees (need to know principle). Periodically security of its data processing and underlying IT systems is evaluated. If we outsource data handling processes to third parties, we make agreements with these parties on adequate security of personal data. The measures taken are in line with applicable privacy laws and regulations. However, absolute (100%) protection of personal data cannot be guaranteed. If – despite the security measure taken – a security incident takes place, we will take measures to minimize the consequences regarding your privacy.
