CUSTOMER PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION CHARTER

Last Updated:  April 08, 2025

1. THE ACCOR GROUP'S COMMITMENT TO PROTECTING PRIVACY

We consider you an important customer. Our first priority is to offer you exceptional stays and experiences throughout the world.
Your complete satisfaction and confidence in Accoris absolutely essential to us.
That's why, as part of our commitment to meeting your expectations, we have set up (and we had a privacy policy before the much anticipated GDPR - General Data Protection Regulation ;-)) a customer personal data protection charter. This charter formalizes our commitments to you and describes how the AccorGroup uses your personal data.

2. SCOPE OF APPLICATION

In this charter, “AccorGroup” means:
  • Accor SA, the AccorGroup parent company, with registered offices at 82 rue Henri Farman, 92130 Issy-les-Moulineaux, France;
  • Subsidiary or “family” companies of Accor SA involved in the hotel businesses of the AccorGroup; and
  • hotels operated under one of the AccorGroup brands throughout the world (Raffles, Sofitel Legend, Fairmont, SO/, Sofitel, onefinestay, Rixos, MGallery, Pullman, Swissôtel, 25hours Hotels, Novotel, Mercure, Mama Shelter, Adagio, JO&JOE, ibis, ibis Styles, ibis budget, Grand Mercure, The Sebel and hotelF1). This list of brands is regularly updated and can be viewed on accor.com.
Good to know!
You probably don't know this, but the hotel you are booked to stay in is probably not owned by Accor SA or one of its family of companies. Most Accorbranded hotels are operated under a franchise or management agreement between the hotel’s owner and Accor SA (or one of its subsidiaries across the world).
This is why, when staying in one of these hotels, your personal data will be dealt with by Accor SA and the hotel, both acting as Data Controllers for their own, separate, purposes. In summary:
  • Accor SA will process your data because it manages a central booking engine, which allows Accor SA to collect the data necessary to organise your stay in hotels under an Accorbrand and to communicate this data to the concerned hotels. Accor SA also manages a global database of clients who stay in hotels under an Accorbrand. With the help of its subsidiary PRO-FID SAS, Accor SA also manages the Le Club Accor loyalty programme;
  • Each hotel will process your data to manage its contractual relationship with you (invoicing, payment, booking management etc.), to perform marketing activities and to comply with its legal obligations.
Accor SA has communicated the principles set out in this charter to all of the Accorbranded hotels and their respective owners. We will do our upmost to ensure that all hotels comply with the applicable data protection laws and this charter in relation to the processing of your personal data.

3. ACCOR' TEN PRINCIPLES FOR PROTECTING YOUR PERSONAL DATA

In accordance with applicable regulations, in particular the European General Data Protection Regulation, we have instituted the following ten principles throughout the AccorGroup:
  1. Lawfulness: We use personal data only if:
    • we obtain the consent of the person, OR
    • it is necessary to do so for the performance of a contract to which the person is a party, OR
    • it is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation, OR
    • it is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the person, OR
    • we have a legitimate interest in using personal data and our usage does not adversely affect the persons’ rights
  2. Fairness: We can explain why we need the personal data we collect.
  3. Purpose limitation and data minimisation: We only use personal data that we really need. If the result can be achieved with less personal data, then we make sure we use the minimum data required.
  4. Transparency: We inform people about the way we use their personal data
  5. We facilitate the exercise of the people’s rights: access to their personal data, rectification and erasure of their personal data and the right to object to the use of their personal data
  6. Storage limitation: We retain personal data for a limited period
  7. We ensure the security of personal data, i.e. its integrity and confidentiality.
  8. If a third party uses personal data, we make sure it has the capacity to protect that personal data.
  9. If personal data is transferred outside Europe, we ensure this transfer is covered by specific legal tools.
  10. If personal data is compromised (lost, stolen, damaged, unavailable…), we notify such breaches to the respective country’s responsible authority and to the person concerned, if the breach is likely to cause a high-risk in respect of the rights and freedoms of this person.

AUTHORIZED AGENTS

The CCPA allows California residents to designate an authorized agent to exercise their rights. If you submit a request via an authorized agent acting on your behalf, we will require this authorized agent to provide proof that you gave the agent signed permission to submit the request.

“DO NOT SELL MY PERSONAL INFORMATION”: RIGHT TO OPT-OUT OF THE SALE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Under the CCPA, the disclosure of Personal Information to a third party for monetary or other consideration of value can be considered as a "sale", the term “sale” being broadly defined.

The CCPA defines a “sale” as selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a California resident’s Personal Information to another business or a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration.

The CCPA gives residents of California the right to opt out of the "sale" of their Personal Information.

We do not “sell” customers’ personal data in the strictest sense of the term. However, we offer Californian residents the opportunity to exercise this right, should one of our business practices be considered a “sale” within the meaning of the CCPA.

To opt-out of our use of third-party advertising cookies, see the “COOKIES” section below.

14.3.5 Protection of Your Personal Data During International Transfers

We use central information systems located overseas to process your reservation, accommodation, and membership information. The details are as follows:

Name of the overseas recipient: Accor S.A.

Contact details of the overseas recipient: data.privacy@accor.com or 82 rue Henri Farman, 92130 Issy-les-Moulineaux, France

Purpose of processing: As a global multinational company, Accor Group adopts globally integrated standards for its products, services, and management. The central information systems are used to manage customer reservations, accommodations, and memberships worldwide. Specifically: when you book our hotel, we need to collect your personal information to coordinate the hotel reservation management system globally (including but not limited to China) and integrate the group’s global resources. This information is used for hotel reservations and prepaid management. When you stay and consume services at our hotels, we need to collect your personal information to efficiently and consistently monitor your experience, address needs and issues during your stay, understand guest accommodations across different hotels, analyze hotel performance and service, and meet internal audit and management requirements. This is used for member points calculation, non-member communication channels, customer surveys and analysis, and hotel performance analysis. When you register as an Accor member or enjoy Accor membership services, we need to collect your personal information to ensure the effective operation of our global membership system (including point accumulation and redemption, global promotions, personalized services, etc.). This is used for membership registration, ALL Plus card management, preference management, loyalty points management, and fast payment management. Additionally, the overseas recipient may use the collected personal information for internal audit purposes.

Method of processing: Collection, transmission, storage, use, processing, provision, and deletion.

Types of personal information processed: When you book our hotel, the overseas recipient needs to process your name, email address, phone number, country or region, booking information, payment card details, transaction and consumption records, age of guests under 14 (optional), and Accor membership ID (optional). When you stay and consume services at our hotel, the overseas recipient processes your name, accommodation information, email address, country (optional), gender (optional), accommodation satisfaction feedback (optional), and contact address. When you register as an Accor member or use Accor membership services, the overseas recipient processes your name, title, country or region, email address, phone number, membership account password, date of birth (optional), contact address (optional), Accor membership ID, payment card details (optional), accommodation information, transaction and consumption records, and preferences.

To achieve the above processing purposes, your personal information may be provided to other overseas recipients, including:

  • Service providers of the overseas recipient
  • Accor Group subsidiaries
  • Franchised and managed hotels

You can exercise your rights as a data subject under the Personal Information Protection Law by emailing the designated email for Accor China (China.dataprivacy.team@accor.com) or the Accor Group email (Data.privacy@accor.com) (Please refer to Section “14.3.8 Your Rights”).

 

14.3.6 Data Security

We take appropriate technical and organizational measures, in accordance with applicable legal provisions, to protect your personal information against unlawful or accidental destruction, alteration, loss, misuse, access, modification or disclosure.

14.3.7 Protection of Personal Information of Children

We take the protection of minors' personal information very seriously and comply with the requirements of the PIPL to safeguard the personal information of minors (under the age of 14). 

Please note that our services are primarily intended for adults. If it is necessary to collect a minor's personal information (e.g., when booking a room, providing the age of a minor staying together), such information must be provided by an adult. We would be grateful if you could ensure that your children do not send us any personal information without your consent (particularly via the Internet). If such information is sent, you can contact us (see section 14.3.9 "Questions and Contacts" below) to arrange for this information to be deleted.

If you have any questions, requests, or concerns regarding the protection of children's personal information, please contact us as indicated in section 14.3.9 "Questions and Contacts".

For matters not specifically addressed in this Protection of Personal Information of Children section, the relevant provisions of the Customer Personal Data Protection Charter shall apply.

In addition to your rights under 11. YOUR RIGHTS in "Customer Personal Data Protection Charter", unless otherwise provided by law or administrative regulations of China, you also have the following rights:
