PRIVACY STATEMENT FOR DATA SUBJECTS WHOSE PERSONAL INFORMATION MAY BE COLLECTED IN THE EUROPEAN UNION

EU GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION («GDPR»). LOCAL PHOTO-VIDEO is a global brand and thus many of our guests are from the European Economic Area («EEA»).

Additionally, information that we collect may be transferred outside of the EEA, including to countries, such as the United States, which have not been deemed as having «adequate» security measures by the European Commission. Therefore, we have executed Model Clauses between our European Hotels and our LOCAL PHOTO-VIDEO Hospitality, pursuant to European Commission Decision 2010/87/EC, to facilitate the legitimate, secure transfer of personal information outside the EEA as necessary.

LAWFUL GROUNDS TO PROCESS AND OBTAIN CONSENT
