Privacy Policy

Who we are

HotelsNearMe.com is a consumer travel program that connects verified humans with participating hotel offers. Identity verification may be performed by Verify.CyberInsurance.com or other approved providers under their own privacy notices.

Information we collect

• Information you provide — such as name, email, phone, and messages you send through our contact channels.
• Verification data — signals processed by verification partners (for example, government ID, selfie match, device integrity) to confirm you are a real traveler. Partners process this data under their policies; our marketing materials describe minimization and deletion practices for verification artifacts.
• Travel and transaction data — search parameters, stay preferences, confirmations, and support history when you book through linked properties or distribution partners.
• Technical data — IP address, browser type, pages viewed, referral URLs, and standard server or security logs used to operate and protect the service. This marketing site does not currently set non-essential cookies, use browser storage for tracking, or run third-party analytics. If that changes, we will update this policy before doing so.

How we use information

We use personal information to provide the program, authenticate eligibility, prevent fraud and abuse, personalize offers where permitted, process bookings, provide customer support, comply with law, and improve our services. We do not sell your personal information. If we introduce email marketing, we will describe opt-in and opt-out mechanisms here.

Legal bases (where applicable)

Depending on your location, we may rely on contract performance, legitimate interests (such as security and fraud prevention), consent (for marketing where required), and legal obligations. You may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR, UK GDPR, or U.S. state privacy laws.

Retention

We retain information for as long as needed to operate the program, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet legal, tax, and fraud-prevention requirements. Verification partners maintain their own retention schedules; confirm contractual commitments with each vendor.

Sharing with third parties

We may share information with verification providers, cloud infrastructure hosts, payment processors, and hotel or online-travel partners needed to fulfill a booking or rate you request. Partners are authorized to use data only for the services they provide to us or to you.

Security

We use administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; please use strong credentials and report suspected issues promptly.

Children

The program is intended for adults who can form a binding contract. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18.

Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, you may request access, correction, deletion, portability, or restriction of processing, and you may object to certain uses or lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise rights, contact us at support@hotelsnearme.com or via our contact page. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the revised version on this page with an updated “Last updated” date. Material changes may be communicated by email or site notice where required by law.
