In all public areas that are being video recorded you will find a visible sign board that states you agree to be video recorded if you use our facilities.

The purposes for which we may Process Personal Information, subject to applicable law, include:
When we process your Personal Information as one of our customers or someone else with whom we do business, we do so in the legitimate interests of the purposes listed above, because of the legal compliance we are subject to, or because the information is required to fulfil contractual obligations to you.
Disclosures of your personal data
We may have to share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out above.
International Transfers of Information
Because of the international nature of our business, we may need to transfer your Personal Information within the ALG group of companies, and to third parties, in connection with the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice. For this reason, we may transfer your Personal Information to other countries that may have different laws and data protection compliance requirements to those that apply in the country in which you are located.

Having a contractual relationship is a permissible reason for transferring Personal Information in all countries with privacy regulations.
In accordance with the above, we may send your Personal Information to the following countries where Apple Leisure Group has operations and partnership with services providers:

We have implemented appropriate technical security measures in order to protect Personal Information during international transfers, in compliance with applicable laws.
Where you have made a reservation for accommodation or travel arrangements which are located or otherwise due to be fulfilled outside your origin country, we will have to transfer your personal data to the suppliers fulfilling or providing those travel arrangements in order to make your booking and for those suppliers to be able to provide you with the travel arrangements you have booked
