Information collected about you
ThailandKohChang.net collects personally identifiable information ("PII") about you that you specifically and voluntarily provide. PII includes information that can identify you as a specific individual, such as your name, phone number, or e-mail address. Although you are required to register as a member of ThailandKohChang.net in order to use selected travel planning tools, and some PII is needed in order to process and fulfill travel requests, many areas of ThailandKohChang.net can be accessed without providing any PII.

On all ThailandKohChang.net pages that collect PII, we specifically describe what information is required in order to provide you with the product or service you have requested.

ThailandKohChang.net collects PII when you:

This information is stored in the My Profile area of a member's ThailandKohChang.net account.

When someone other than yourself is accompanying you on travel purchased through ThailandKohChang.net, we may collect PII and travel preferences about that individual. You should obtain the consent of other individuals prior to providing ThailandKohChang.net with their full names, contact numbers, e-mail addresses, and travel preferences, as they will be unable to directly access our systems to view or change any information you provide on their behalf.

Travel purchase information
ThailandKohChang.net collects the billing address of the credit card that is used to purchase travel. We will also collect credit card information, including card number, card type, cardholder name, and expiration date, in order to bill you for travel purchased through ThailandKohChang.net. Please view our Credit Card Guarantee for additional information on ThailandKohChang.net's commitment to protecting your credit card security.

Travel Arranger information
ThailandKohChang.net offers you the ability to authorize others to make and purchase travel arrangements on your behalf and allows you to become an authorized Travel Arranger for other ThailandKohChang.net members. If you elect to participate in this service, ThailandKohChang.net will collect the e-mail address of the person you are authorizing to make travel arrangements on your behalf or for whom you are requesting authorization to make travel arrangements.

All travel services throughout ThailandKohChang.net that are provided by a third-party partner are described as such.

Other information we collect
Some information is collected automatically every time you visit ThailandKohChang.net (e.g., cookies and computer information). In addition, information may be collected from other independent, third-party sources.

Cookies and other Web technologies
When you visit ThailandKohChang.net we collect information about your computer and assign you a "cookie" (a small, unique identifier text file). You do not provide this information—it is collected automatically as a means of supporting your visit to our site. This cookie does not contain any PII. You can always choose to not receive a cookie file by enabling your Web browser to refuse cookies or prompt you before accepting a cookie. Be advised that, by refusing to accept a cookie, you will not be able to access many travel services and planning tools offered by ThailandKohChang.net.

When you access the My Trips or My Profile areas of the ThailandKohChang.net Web site, reserve or purchase travel, or use selected travel planning tools, ThailandKohChang requires you to sign in as a member, using your Member ID and password. Once you sign in as an ThailandKohChang.net member, we record the Member ID and the name on the member account in the cookie file on your computer. We may also record your password in this cookie file if you checked the box entitled "Save this password for automatic sign-in." Your Member ID, password, and the name on your member account is stored in the cookie file as encrypted data, so no one can view the information it contains by obtaining unauthorized access to your computer. Permanent cookie files remain on your computer's hard drive until you manually delete the file.

A cookie file may also be placed on your hard drive by ThailandKohChang.net's third-party advertising companies. These companies may use aggregated statistics about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements about travel-related goods and services that you may be interested in. The information they collect does not include your PII.

The third-party advertising companies may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of ads. This is primarily accomplished through the use of a Web beacon (a single-pixel GIF), which is placed on our site to collect anonymous information. They may use this anonymous information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. No PII is collected during this process. The information is anonymous and does not link online actions to an identifiable person. If you would like more information and want to explore the option of not having this information collected by third-party advertisers, click here.

This only occurs if your computer supports such technology.

Improving the quality of your visit to our site

This data allows us to streamline your ability to navigate the site and develop featured programs and content that will be of interest to our members and site visitors. No PII is collected unless you explicitly provide it.

Service providers
To provide and process the services you request, ThailandKohChang.net shares your PII with our authorized service providers that perform certain services or functions on our behalf.

Our service providers need information about your traveler profile, as well as your credit card information, to process and confirm your travel reservation. These service providers will disclose information about your traveler profile to hotel, airline, cruise, rental car, and other travel suppliers whose products you have purchased. Like any other travel agent, this information must be shared with our travel suppliers to confirm your reservation and travel preferences. Although ThailandKohChang.net offers travel products from hotel, airline, cruise, rental car, and other travel suppliers that are reputable companies, we have not placed limitations on these suppliers from using or disclosing your information without your permission. Therefore, we encourage you to review the information privacy practices of any travel suppliers whose products you purchase on ThailandKohChang.net. In addition, these travel suppliers may also contact you as necessary to obtain additional information about your confirmed reservation.

In the event that you make a new, or update an existing, travel reservation by calling our toll-free number, your information may be accessed by a third-party service provider, as necessary, to respond to your request for customer service.

ThailandKohChang.net may contract a reputable third party to facilitate the distribution of survey, promotion, or sweepstakes programs. Upon completion of these projects, all information is returned to ThailandKohChang.net.

Trusted business partners
In addition, we have partnered with various third-party Web sites to offer ThailandKohChang.net travel services. These trusted third-party companies have added travel sections to their Web sites in order to offer ThailandKohChang.net provided travel services. We will not share any of your PII with these trusted third-party companies, even if you register on ThailandKohChang.net through their Web sites.

Our obligations
ThailandKohChang.net may be required by law to disclose information you have provided in obtaining our travel products or services. ThailandKohChang.net may also disclose information against someone who poses a threat to ThailandKohChang.net's interests (such as customer fraud) or whose activities could bring harm to others. In addition, it may be necessary for ThailandKohChang.net to provide customer information to third parties, such as credit card companies, for the purpose of resolving disputes that arise in the normal course of business.

There are several places throughout ThailandKohChang.net that may link you to other Web sites that do not operate under ThailandKohChang.net's information privacy practices.
