01Scope
Weekends Inc. ("Weekends", "WKNDS", "us", "we") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the privacy of visitors to and members of its websites that post or link to this Policy (the "Sites"). This Policy informs you of our practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personal and anonymous information submitted or otherwise collected through the Sites.
By using the Sites, you understand and agree to the terms of this Policy. The Sites are owned by Weekends and may be accessed in the United States and abroad. Information collected may be retained, stored, processed, accessed, and used in jurisdictions whose privacy laws may differ from your home jurisdiction. Please also review our Terms & Conditions, which govern use of the Sites.
02What we collect
We may collect the following Personal Information:
- Name and job title
- Contact information including email address
- Demographic information such as postcode, preferences and interests
- Other information relevant to customers
- When you register on the Sites, your e-mail address, a chosen username, and password — and, optionally, your website, phone, and any additional details you volunteer
We may also automatically collect non-personal or clickstream information ("Anonymous Information") including browser type, referring website, operating system, ISP domain, pages visited, and visit duration.
03How we use it
The Personal and Anonymous Information we gather (collectively, "Information") helps us learn about visitors, customers, and prospects, and is used to:
- Keep internal records.
- Improve our products and services, process transactions, provide customer service, perform research and analysis, and tailor content to your interests.
- Send promotional emails, newsletters, surveys, or other communications about products, services, and offers we think you may find interesting. You may opt out at any time using the unsubscribe instructions in any such email.
- Contact you for market-research purposes by email, phone, or mail.
- Customize the Sites according to your interests.
For registered users, Information is also used to set up secure access to your account.
04Cookies
A cookie is a small file that asks permission to be placed on your device. Once accepted, it helps analyze web traffic and lets the Sites recognize you on return. Cookies allow us to:
- Identify registered users so they can retrieve previous searches, lightboxes, carts, and invoices.
- Save you time by avoiding re-entry of the same information.
- Deliver personalized content, including search results and interest-based advertising.
- Help protect security by checking login details and reducing fraud.
- Remember your preferences.
Most browsers accept cookies automatically; you can change your browser settings to decline them. Declining cookies may prevent you from using some features of the Sites.
05Sharing
We may share your Information:
- With third-party partners for marketing or promotional purposes.
- With service providers performing services on our behalf — hosting, maintenance, database management, analytics, and Site improvement — under appropriate agreements.
- Within our corporate group, including subsidiaries and divisions, for the purposes disclosed here.
- As part of any merger, acquisition, sale, or insolvency event in which Information may be transferred as a business asset.
- Where required by law (including to meet national-security or law-enforcement requirements) or where we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to comply with legal process, respond to claims, or protect the rights, property, or safety of Weekends, our employees, customers, or the public.
Except as described in this Policy, we will not sell or share your Personal Information.
06Security
The security of your Personal Information is important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards and have put in place suitable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard the information we collect online. No method of transmission over the internet, or electronic storage, is 100% secure; while we strive to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee absolute security against accidental circumstances or unauthorized acts of others.
