Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 11, 2026

Hunt Group Properties ("we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, and the rights you have under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

1. Data We Collect

  • Booking data: name, email, phone, number of guests, check-in/out dates, and any special requests you submit.
  • Identity verification: government ID details processed by our verification partner for check-in eligibility.
  • Payment data: billing details handled by Stripe. We never store full card numbers on our servers.
  • Communication data: messages you send through our contact form or guest chat widget.
  • Usage data: pages visited and approximate location derived from your IP address, collected via cookies.

2. How We Use Your Data

  • To process and confirm reservations and send you booking-related emails.
  • To verify guest identity before check-in.
  • To respond to inquiries submitted via our contact form or chat.
  • To comply with legal, tax, and platform (Airbnb/VRBO) obligations.
  • To improve our website and services (aggregated, de-identified analytics).

3. Legal Basis (GDPR)

We process your data under the following lawful bases:

  • Contract — to fulfill your booking agreement.
  • Consent — for marketing emails and non-essential cookies (you may withdraw at any time).
  • Legal obligation — tax and record-keeping requirements.
  • Legitimate interests — website security and service improvement.

4. Your Rights

Under GDPR/CCPA, you have the right to:

  • Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectify — correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Erase — request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").
  • Restrict or object — limit processing or object to certain uses.
  • Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
  • Opt out — of the sale or sharing of personal information (CCPA).
  • Withdraw consent — for any processing based on consent, at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at huntgroupproperties@gmail.com. We respond within 30 days. California residents may also submit CCPA requests to the same address.

5. Cookies & Tracking

We use essential cookies to keep you logged in and the site functioning. We only set non-essential analytics or marketing cookies after you consent via the banner shown on your first visit. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing your browser cookies or clicking "Cookie Settings" in the footer.

6. Data Sharing

We share data only with the processors needed to operate our service: Stripe (payments), our email provider (Resend), Airbnb/VRBO (imported bookings), and our identity-verification partner. These parties process data under contracts that require GDPR/CCPA-compliant safeguards. We never sell your personal data.

7. Data Retention

We retain booking records for as long as needed to provide our services and meet tax/legal obligations (typically up to 7 years). Chat and contact-form messages are kept for 24 months unless you request earlier deletion.

8. International Transfers

Some processors are located outside the EU/EEA. We rely on Standard Contractual Clauses and appropriate safeguards to ensure your data is protected to EU standards during such transfers.

9. Security

We use row-level access controls, encrypted connections (HTTPS), and role-based permissions to protect your data. Access to PII is limited to admins and the staff who need it to serve your booking.

10. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be highlighted on the home page.
