2. How Do We Use Your Information?

Mandarin Oriental collects your information to operate effectively and provide you with the best experiences with our services. Mandarin Oriental may collect, use, and disclose the information it collects for a variety of reasons, including for the following purposes:

• Fulfilment of Reservation and Other Purchases: We may process information relating to transactions that you enter into with us and/or through our website ("transaction data"). The transaction data may be processed for the purpose of completing your room reservation, facilitating bookings for Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes, supplying the purchased goods and services, customizing our services to your preferences, seeking your feedback on your stay at our properties, and keeping proper records of those transactions.
• Membership Programs: To administer and operate voluntary membership programs, including the Fans of M.O. program, loyalty programs and frequent flyer programs. The data may be processed for the purposes of recording stay and transactional data, earning and redeeming rewards, points, or credits in connection with the programs.
• Response to Inquiries: We may process information contained in or relating to any communication that you send to us ("correspondence data"). The correspondence data may include the communication content and metadata associated with the communication. The correspondence data may be processed for the purposes of communicating with you and record-keeping.
• Internal Business Purposes: For our internal business purposes, such as data analysis, audits, developing new products, enhancing the website, improving our services, identifying usage trends and visiting patterns, determining the effectiveness of our promotions, and meeting contractual obligations.
• Administrative and Other Communications: To send you important information regarding our website, changes to our terms, conditions, and policies, or other administrative information (e.g., information about your travel reservations, such as reservation confirmations).
• Marketing and Promotions: To communicate news and promotions to you relating to Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group-related products and services and other products and services we think may be of interest to you, and to operate sweepstakes, contests, or other marketing or promotional activities.
• Artificial Intelligence: To personalise customer experiences, analyse and summarise guest feedback, survey responses and research materials, detect fraudulent or suspicious activity, segment and analyse audiences and improve our products and services. These tools operate under human oversight and do not produce legally significant decisions without human review. Where feedback or research data is used for analytics or insight purposes, this is generally done in an aggregated or non attributable manner, unless you have agreed otherwise. You have the right to request information about this processing and, where applicable, to opt out.
• Safety and Security: To maintain your safety and security as well as that of other guests and personnel, while you visit our managed hotels and residences.
• Our Legal Duties: To comply with legal and regulatory requirements or demands in accordance with applicable law, a court order, subpoena, or other legal process.
• Additional Uses: We may also use your data in other ways as described to you when you provide such information to us.

The legal basis for processing your personal information is made up of one or more of the following reasons depending on the circumstances: (i) your consent, and/or (ii) providing the services you have requested, and/or (iii) legitimate interests, and/or (iv) compliance with applicable laws, regulations, court orders or other legal process.

4. Does Mandarin Oriental Share the Information it Receives?

As an international hotel and residences management company and with the global geographical diversity of our business, it is essential that we share information with other parties in order to provide you with and to maintain the best possible service. The specific kind of information we share will depend on the context of your interactions with Mandarin Oriental, and the services you use. Accordingly, your personal information may be shared with the following parties insofar as reasonably necessary for the purposes, and on the legal bases, set out in this policy:

• to any affiliates of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group and other organisations which own the hotels and residences managed by us; to the representative or travel advisor that has supplied us with your personal information (for example, your travel agent, personal assistant, employer or spouse who has provided us with your details). The name and contact details of such representative or travel advisor will differ on a case-by-case basis. Please contact your representative or travel advisor for any questions relating to the processing of your personal information by such representative or travel advisor;
• to the relevant third party property owner (and, where applicable, property manager or service provider), where you make a booking for Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes, in respect of which Mandarin Oriental acts as booking agent and does not own, operate or manage the homes;
• to third parties not affiliated with Mandarin Oriental when we have your consent to do so;
• to our trusted business partners to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures;
• to our marketing and advertisement partners to provide you with more-relevant ads on our site and to encourage you to return to our site;
• to third party service providers (such as Facebook or Google) to (i) provide us with analytics so we can evaluate and improve our products and services, (ii) to help us identify existing and potential guests and customers similar to our audience, and (iii) help us to segment and understand our audience by providing additional information so that we can send the most relevant and targeted communications possible.
• to organisations which own, manage or operate the spas, restaurants, health clubs, and other outlets at our properties so they can provide with their services;
• to third parties not affiliated with Mandarin Oriental if we have a good-faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (1) meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request; (2) enforce applicable terms of service, including investigation of potential violations; (3) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; and (4) protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Mandarin Oriental, our users or the public as required or permitted by law; and
• to any third parties to the extent necessary with respect to a sale of all or part of our business operations or assets.

5. Does Mandarin Oriental Transfer Information Overseas?

As an international hotel and residences management company and with the global geographical diversity of our business, it is essential that we share information across multiple jurisdictions in order to provide you with and to maintain the best possible services. By using and/or purchasing our goods and services, or where Mandarin Oriental facilitates a booking for Mandarin Oriental Exceptional Homes, we may transfer your personal information across multiple jurisdictions. Accordingly, insofar as reasonably necessary for the purposes, and on the legal bases, set out in this policy, we may transfer and store your personal information:

• in or to Hong Kong S.A.R., the United Kingdom and the United States of America, where our corporate offices are located;
• in those countries and territories in which we manage and operate hotels and residences and/or operate sales offices, including Austria, Chile, China, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong S.A.R., Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Macau S.A.R., Malaysia, Morocco, Oman, Qatar, Singapore, Spain, St Vincent & The Grenadines, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, The Netherlands, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom and United States; and

See section 4 for more information on the above transfers. Such transfers may be to a country or territory which may not provide the same level of privacy protection as that provided by the country or territory in which the information was collected but we will take reasonable steps (such as entering into data transfer agreements based on the European Commission model clauses or clauses approved by other major regulators) to ensure that while your personal information is within our control, we will handle your personal information using reasonable security and confidentiality procedures to keep your personal information secure and confidential.
