-Privacy Policy-
Your right to privacy and security is very important. We recognize that when
you choose to provide us with information about yourself, you trust us to act
in a responsible manner. We believe this information should only be used to
help us provide you with better service. That's why we have put a policy in
place to protect your personal information. Below is a summary of our policy.
What personal information do we collect?
In general, when you visit our websites and access information you remain
anonymous. Before we ask you for information, we will explain how this
information will be used. We will not provide any of your personal information
to other companies or individuals without your permission. If you do not want
us to provide your personal information to other companies or individuals
please contact us at privacy@HiltonHeadRentals.com
Some of our sites require registration to access, although typically all that's
requested is an e-mail address and some basic information about you, such as
vacation preferences.
There are occasions where we will ask for additional information. We do this to
be able to better understand your needs, and provide you with services that we
believe may be valuable to you. Some examples of information our websites
collect are name, address and phone number. We give you the opportunity to
elect not to receive materials from us. If you sign up for a Hilton Head
Rentals electronic newsletter or e-mail list, each message will include
instructions on how to "unsubscribe" from that list.
If any of our websites are developed for children under the age of 13, we will
encourage them to get their parents' permission before they give us any
personal information. These websites will also encourage children to use
nicknames, instead of their given names when and if personal information is
collected.
Securing your privacy
We will protect the quality and integrity of your
personally identifiable information. We have implemented appropriate technical
and managerial procedures to maintain information that is accurate, current,
and complete. We will make a sincere effort to respond to your requests to
correct personal information inaccuracies in a timely manner.
We will take appropriate steps to protect your privacy. Whenever
you provide sensitive information (for example, a credit card number to make a
purchase), we will take reasonable steps to protect it, such as encrypting your
card number. We will also take reasonable security measures to protect
your personal information in storage. Credit card numbers are used only for
payment processing and are not retained for marketing purposes.
Your personal information will only be used by Hilton Head Rentals. However, we
may need to provide your name and delivery address to third parties that Hilton
Head Rentals uses for the purposes of delivering specific services to you
(e.g., customer support, or a shipping company if you have asked us to send
something to you.)
Our websites may provide links to third party sites. Since we do not control
those websites, we encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third
party sites.
We will also disclose personal information when required by law, in response to
any demand by law enforcement or other appropriate government authorities, or
if the personal information is pertinent in a legal proceeding or court action.

Data storage
Many of our websites that collect information will
store and process that information in databases in the United States. We will also
take reasonable security measures to protect all information stored in these
databases.
How can you update the personal information you have provided
to Hilton Head Rentals?

From time to time, we may need to change or update our privacy policy. If the
policy has changes, this page will be updated. You will not be provided with

been any changes.
Questions?
Hilton Head Rentals welcomes comments and questions on this policy. We are
dedicated to protecting your personal information, and will make every
