you may also receive newsletters from our sister companies
for cruise, air and resort specials.

About Cookies
Many Web sites, including euroHotelGuide.com, use cookie
technology to help users navigate efficiently. The cookie
is a small text file that resides on your hard drive.
From time to time, our site will request the cookie
from your browser so that we can retrieve the stored
information. This prevents you from making the same
selections over and over again. euroHotelGuide.com never
uses cookies to store personal information, such as
credit-card numbers, nor can the information we store
in the cookie ever be read by any Web site other than
ours.
An example of how cookies are used: When you conduct
a search for hotels in Orlando, a cookie will be set
recording the city of Orlando as the parameter of your
search. When you return to the search form to narrow
or change your search, Orlando will automatically be
entered into the city field in the search form.
Please note that with most browsers, a user can set
the preferences to show a warning each time a cookie
request is received. You can also usually set the browser
not to accept cookies at all. However, to make your
experience using euroHotelGuide.com as convenient as
possible, we suggest that you allow your browser to
accept cookies. If you choose to set your browser to
not accept cookies, you will not be able to access any
user account you have created or take advantage of some
of our shopping features. However, the use of cookies
is not required to make a reservation.
At times, advertisers on our site set cookies when you
view their ad banner. World Choice Travel does not receive
the data collected by those cookies. euro Hotel Guide
from time to time works with a third party that serves
ads to this site.
Confidentiality
World Choice Travel will not disclose or sell any of
your personal information, including your name, address,
shopping, or transaction history to any third party
without your permission.
Shopping at euroHotelGuide.com
is safe and secure
We employ security measures such as Secure Socket Layer
technology (SSL) to protect the loss, misuse and alteration
of your personal information. SSL, which is utilized
by most popular browsers, including Netscape and Microsoft
Explorer, provides the advanced encryption tools necessary
to protect information transmitted between your computer
and our server. Encryption simply means that your information
is converted into code before it is dispatched over
the Internet. Our secure server encrypts all personal
information, including your name, address, and credit
card information, so that it cannot be read as it is
transmitted over the Internet when you make a reservation.
Also, if you have a user account, you can choose to
employ our secure server when making changes to your
account.
When making a reservation online, we also employ Virtual
Private Network technology (VPN) to encrypt your personal
information when sharing it with the hotel.
In addition, only authorized World Choice Travel employees
are permitted to have access to your information and
that access is limited by need. All World Choice Travel
employees must abide by our Privacy policy.
Changes to our Privacy Policy
We will inform you that our privacy policy has changed
by prominently displaying a note to this effect on our
Web site home page.
How to contact us
If you have additional questions or concerns regarding
the World Choice Travel Guarantee, please email us at
