We endeavour to protect your information through the measures set out below. Unfortunately, we cannot always guarantee complete security. Unauthorised entry or use, hardware or software failures, events outside our control and other factors, may compromise the security of your information. Nevertheless, we will comply with our obligation to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security of personal data appropriate to safeguard against the risks of a personal data breach.

This section is for parents, guardians and children under the age of 16.

If you are under 16, please ask your parent or guardian before using any of our services including our website, apps and other services, as most of them are not directly intended for children.

We will ask parents and guardians for information about their children such as name, age, gender and preferred language, so that we can recognise all our customers. This information will also help us prepare for the arrival of children, for example, by providing toys, gadgets and games in your room. When children use our services such as WiFi, we will receive information about that for billing purposes. Children may also be captured on our security cameras. We have a legitimate interest to process this information as further explained in paragraph 3.

We may also ask parents and guardians about the interests of their children. With the consent of a parent or guardian we may send children information about fun activities and events taking place during their stay with us. If you are under 16, when you receive information from us please always ask your parent or guardian before making a decision.

We will keep information about children on file so that we can recognise them and know their preferences when we meet again in future. If you are under 16 and you are not sure about this, just ask your parent or guardian to let us know. We will delete information about you unless there is a legal reason to keep it. You can also tell our staff or email us at privacy@romantica.net

Right to data portability. In certain circumstances, data subjects may request the controller to provide a copy of their personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and have it transferred to another provider of the same or similar services. To the extent this applies to our services, we will comply with such transfer request. Please note that a transfer to another provider does not imply the erasure of personal data.
