Information Collected :

As a result, you have choices about the data we collect. When you are asked to provide data, you may decline; but if you choose not to provide data that is necessary to provide a service or feature, you may not be able to use that service or feature. For example, you may choose to book a room when you reserve a room through our Services, which creates a smoother future booking process but requires submitting additional information. You may also choose to submit social media content through our Services, in which case we collect certain information associated with that social media account such as account name, the shared content, and any comments or interactions with the shared content.
