Data collection

3.1. Spa Group collects personal data mainly from its customers and additionally from cooperation partners-tour operators, for the provision of hotel services in Tallinn Viimsi SPA, Meresuu SPA, Grand Rose SPA Hotel and Ring Hostel. As a rule, the data is necessary for the provision of the hotel/hostel service chosen by the customer and can always be specified within the framework of a specific service (e.g., accommodation service, seminar service, spa service, catering service). Normally, only the first and last name, as well as contact information i.e., e-mail address, and telephone number, are required for the initial provision of hotel services and the formalization of the original reservation, to send the customer a confirmation of the reservation or, depending on the situation, to contact the customer. When making the initial reservation and determining the price range, it’s necessary to know the age of the accompanying minors. Minors’ names are not required.

3.1.1. Data processing

Spa Group processes the following personal data:

3.1.2. Processing of personal data during the provision and mediation of accommodation services

As per § 24 of the Tourism Act, when checking into the hotel, the customer must personally fill in the visitor card, with the following personal data being entered for the provision of accommodation services: first and last name, date of birth, citizenship, residential address, and e-mail address. The name, date of birth and citizenship of the spouse/partner and any minor residing with the customer are also entered on the visitor’s card. If the client is not a citizen of Estonia, a member state of the European Union, the European Economic Area or Switzerland, or is not a foreigner living in Estonia based on a residence permit or right of residence, then in addition to the above-mentioned data, the type, number and country of issue of the travel document need to be entered on the visitor card. The customer confirms the correctness of the provided data with their signature. Spa Group uses customers’ data to fulfil the requirements set for accommodation facilities and to provide a service. We do not sell or share personal data with third parties except required to share by law or to fulfil a service contract concluded between us. As per the requirements of the accommodation facility, Spa Group is obliged to keep a register of the persons accommodated, ensuring that the data required by law is entered and forwarded to law enforcement bodies upon request.

3.1.3. Special types of personal data
Depending on the content of the service, Spa Group may also need special types of personal data concerning the specifics of the accommodation service. E.g., the presence of mobility aids (wheelchairs) in the case of certain disabilities, food intolerance to certain substances or data on special diets (if a catering service has been ordered in addition to the accommodation). In any case, it’s a matter of diverse types of personal data, which the customer provides to us to receive the service. We only use the personal data provided by the travel agencies to Spa Group for the provision of services (accommodation, catering) and the data is processed, stored, and destroyed as per the rules provided.

3.1.4. Sending the best offers and reminders
Spa Group emails customers, only with their consent, the best offers and reminders (e.g., additional sales, seasonal exclusive offers, invitations to events, etc.) to a pre-confirmed e-mail address. The customer can withdraw this consent at any time by sending an e-mail to: gdpr@spatallinn.ee.

We also send hotel-related and informational e-mails necessary for customers if the customer has purchased/made a reservation from us for the first time or if the customer’s employer has approved them as an authorized person of the company. These letters are of a confirmation nature so that the customer is aware of joining us.

Regarding the provision of the service, we have the right to send you a feedback e-mail if you have purchased/made a reservation with us or requested a service. We only send feedback emails to clarify service bottlenecks and to provide the best service. If a special situation/accident occurs in the hotel, we can also contact the customer or send a notification letter.

3.2. Our internet environments (websites, various social media channels, e.g., Facebook, Instagram), as well as many other similar environments, collect certain information automatically and save it in log files. This information may include the IP address, region, or general location of the Internet connection of the customer’s computer or device, the type of browser used, the operating system and other information related to the use, including the history of visited pages. Hotels use this information to make the hotel’s internet environment better, simpler, and more user-friendly. We may also use your IP address to diagnose problems on our server and to administer the website, analyze trends, monitor the activity of visitors on the page, as well as to collect more extensive demographic information to better understand the preferences of visitors to our web environments. Internet environments also use a “cookies” system.

3.3. If the customer has consented to receive newsletters and advertising or has participated in raffles or other campaigns organized or mediated by Spa Group, we ask for the customer’s name and contact details. We use this data to send information about the services and goods offered by our company or about anything else that may be of interest to the customer.

Spa Group uses a shared newsletter through which information about services, special offers and campaigns is communicated.

The data controller responsible for the newsletter is SPA Tours OÜ.

By subscribing to the newsletter, the individual gives consent to receive communications about services offered by both SPA Tours OÜ and Metros OÜ.

It is possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by using the relevant link provided in the newsletter or by sending a corresponding request to the e-mail address gdpr@spatallinn.ee.

3.4. When a customer orders and submits a reservation through the booking environment on the website, we need their contact information: first and last name, e-mail address, phone number and, in some cases, their residential address. This information is only needed to contact the customer, if necessary, regarding information about the order and its fulfilment. During the preparation of the order, we also ask the customer for information regarding payment for the order, such as credit card numbers or bank payment details. We use a secure online connection to protect your data.

When and how SPA Tours OÜ stores data

In such cases, we confirm that we will take all necessary measures to ensure that the customer’s data is adequately protected.

5.6. When collecting the information necessary to participate in sweepstakes and other similar events, the obtained contact data is used to be able to contact the customer in the event of a win. As a rule, a prerequisite for participation in prize games is consent to the use of a person’s contact data for other purposes, so we ask customers to carefully familiarize themselves with the conditions of the prize game before participating in it.

Customer data security
