Personal Identification Information

Personal Identification Information is any information that concerns you individually and would permit us to contact you. This includes your name, address, telephone, fax number, e-mail address or any information you submit to us.

Edelweiss Travel will not collect any Personal Identification Information about you unless you provide it to us. Therefore, if you do not wish that we obtain any Personal Identification Information about you, do not submit it us. We will not collect any Personal Information unless you provide this information voluntarily. When you provide us with Personal Information, you are authorizing us to use that information in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. Your Personal Information you voluntarily give and the information we gather about your visits to our Site are used solely by Edelweiss Travel / Elsener Enterprises. Mainly the information is used only for payment and shipping operations. We may also use this information to improve our products and Site, and to contact you regarding other products and services if you sign up for them. For instance the Perk Pool. We do not disclose this information to anyone.

Non-Personal Identification Information   

Non-Personal Identification Information is information concerning the manner by which you access the Edelweiss Travel website and what you do while you are here. This information includes the type of browser you use and the Internet Service Provider. Non-Personal Identification Information is automatically collected when you access this website, or any other website. For instances the pages on the website that you visit and the order that you visit them in. It is more so about collected information from the visit, rather than personal information about the visitor.

How and when information is collected

You may have heard of "cookies," which are files or pieces of information that may be stored in your computer's hard drive when you visit a web site. Elsener Enterprises may use cookies to collect other information during your visit to our Site, such as the particular site areas you visit or the amount of time you spend visiting our Site. We collect this information to better tailor our Site and our products to your interests and needs. Cookies may also be used to help speed up your future activities at our Site; the computer will remember that you have already provided Personal Information to us and not request that you provide any a second time. Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you'd prefer, you can set yours to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. (You can configure your web browser to either reject the installation of the files that allow collection of this information (" cookies ") or warn you before the installation of such files.)

Information about your computer, such as your IP address (a number assigned to your computer whenever you surf the Internet), the type of Internet browser you are using and the type of computer operating system you are using may also be collected, but this information is not linked to your Personal Information. That is, we cannot trace this type of information back to you personally, but we may collect the information about our users in the aggregate.

Why we collect information and what we do with it

Personal Information is necessary for payment and shipping. We also collect information from the visitors of the Edelweiss Travel in order to better know and understand them and respond to their needs and expectations.

We may use the information you submit to contact you. We will never share any information that you provide to us, or that we collect from you, with anyone else for any reason. We only use your information for matters pertaining to your business with us, which we consider private. We take every reasonable precaution to keep your personal information secure. Access to your Personal Information is permitted among our employees only on a need-to-know basis. Many companies share your information that you give to them, or that is collected from you. We feel that it is your prerogative whether to disclose this information, to whom and when. Finally, please note that we will release your Personal Information if required to do so by law, or by search warrant, subpoena or court order.

You may request that we delete any Personal Identification Information we have on you in our files. To do so, email us at info@edelweisstravel.com.

To whom this site is directed and intended

The Edelweiss Travel website is directed to everyone except the children under the age of thirteen years old. Elsener Enterprises / Edelweiss Travel does not intend to collect any Personal Identification Information from children under the age of thirteen years old. However, if children under the age of thirteen years old provide Personal Identification Information to us, their parents or legal guardian should request that we delete this information from our files by sending us an email at info@secondgroove.com. We will make all reasonable efforts to delete children's information from our files.

Our Stand on Children's Privacy

Elsener Enterprises encourages parents to go online with their children. Parents should understand the sites their kids are visiting and determine which sites are appropriate. There are parental control tools available such as browsers and filtering software that prevent children from accessing inappropriate sites. Children should never give out personal information on the Internet, such as name, address, phone number or name of school, unless supervised by a parent or responsible adult. Look for a privacy policy on a web site and find out how information collected from children is treated. Parents should teach their children to look for sites that display a privacy policy.

Please write to us at info@edelweisstravel.com if you have any comments or questions about this Privacy Policy, to report any violations of this Privacy Policy, have information deleted, to limit the use of, or correct your Personal Information. Generally we will respond to you within 24 to 48 hours.
