PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, uses, shares, and protects personal information for Castle Ivar and The Modern Vintage House. By using our site or services, you agree to these practices. Last updated: October 13, 2025.

This policy covers our public website, inquiry forms, and any direct booking or messaging channels we operate. When you book through Airbnb, Vrbo, or other platforms, their privacy policies also apply.

We collect information you provide such as contact details, booking data, payments handled by us or our providers, and messages or reviews, plus device data like IP, browser, pages viewed, and cookie data, and booking or payment confirmations from partners.

We use information to manage reservations and guest services, respond to inquiries, improve our site and services, perform analytics, send transactional messages, offer marketing with consent, comply with legal obligations, and prevent fraud or misuse.

Where required, we rely on performance of a contract for bookings, legitimate interests for service improvement and security, consent for optional cookies and marketing, and legal obligations for tax, safety, and compliance.

We use essential cookies for site operation and optional cookies for analytics and performance. You can manage preferences through our cookie banner or your browser, noting that disabling some cookies may limit functionality.

We share information with booking platforms, payment processors, hosting and analytics providers, customer support tools, professional advisors, and authorities when required, and with a successor in case of merger or reorganization; we do not sell personal information.

Your information may be processed in countries that have different data protection laws than your own. Where required, we use safeguards such as standard contractual clauses to help protect your data.

We keep personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described here, including typical retention for reservations and billing, customer service records, and marketing preferences, or longer where required by law or to resolve disputes.

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is fully secure, and we will notify you of certain data incidents as required by law.

Our site and services are intended for guests aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13; if you believe a child has provided information, contact us so we can delete it.

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email].

California residents may request access, deletion, correction, and details about how we collect and share personal information, and may opt out of certain sharing for cross context behavioral advertising; we do not sell personal information or knowingly sell or share data about minors.

EU and UK residents may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, and portability, and may withdraw consent at any time, and also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority; contact us to submit a request.

Our site may link to third party websites or booking platforms that operate under their own privacy policies, so review those policies before providing personal information on those services.

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails using the link in our messages or by contacting us, and you can manage cookie preferences through our banner or your browser; our site does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals.

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements, and we will post the updated version with a revised date and highlight significant changes where appropriate.
