What Personal Information is collected?
Visitors to the website provide various kinds of information in several different ways. Some visitors choose to submit personal information through subscription, booking forms and requests for more information, either through e-mails, response devices or other methods. Depending on the service you are accessing, you could be asked at various times to provide information including but not limited to, details such as your name, e-mail address or information about what you like and do not like. When booking accommodation online or paying for other services, we may request your credit card number to complete the transaction or your mailing address to ensure delivery.
Latus will not collect sensitive information about you such as details of your race, political beliefs, religion or health. However this may be required where we are providing you with specialised services (such as access requirements for a disability).

Use of Personal Information

In some circumstances, personal information may also be disclosed outside of Latus. For example, we may disclose personal information to third parties to whom the Latus contracts out specialised services. In such cases we will require an undertaking from such persons to comply with the National Privacy Principles and Information Privacy Principles and do not use the personal information for any purposes beyond the scope of our contract with them.
Personal information may also be disclosed to third parties only for the purpose of completing your transaction with us (for example, your credit card provider).
