Personal information submitted to us via this website will be used for purposes specified in this privacy or in relevant parts of the website.

• Provide customer service and support, and deal with enquiries and complaints made by or about you relating to the website;

• Provide third parties such as Google Analytics with limited statistical information about our users (e.g. how many people visited a specific page). This information will be aggregated and anonymised, and will not be able to identify any individual user;

• Keep the website secure and prevent fraud

• Verify compliance with the Terms & Conditions governing the use of the website

We will not provide your personal information to any third parties for the purpose of direct marketing by those parties.

Our legal basis for processing your personal data for the aforementioned purposes will typically be one of the following:

• Contract

  It is necessary for us to process your personal data to perform a contract to which you are a party, or to take steps at your request prior to you entering into the contract

• Consent

  You have consented to us using your personal data for this purpose (e.g. when you create an account with us, agree to receive marketing emails from us). You can withdraw your consent at any time by unsubscribing from our emails or updating your marketing preferences.

• Legitimate Interests

  It is in our legitimate interest to use your personal data to operate, improve and promote our services (e.g using your data for analytics purposes) and to protect our business.

• Legal Obligations

  It is necessary for us to use your personal data for us and our subsidiaries to comply with a legal obligation.

Where you submit personal information with special category data (e.g. information about your health or any previous criminal convictions), we will seek your explicit consent to process this information.

We will keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes for which it is processed. These periods vary depending on the nature of the information and your interactions with us. You can delete your account or unsubscribe from our marketing emails. Do note that when you delete your account, we will store your data for a reasonable period of time to prevent fraud and just in case you change your mind.

Links may be present on our website which result in you leaving the crescentrating.com site and being taken to other third party web sites. You should note that any information that you provide to these third party web sites are not subject to the Crescentrating Pte Ltd Privacy Policy, and we strongly recommend that you be aware of their privacy and security policies.

Crescentrating Pte Ltd may also work with third parties that advertise on our website. Information that may be disclosed to such third parties will be anonymous.

We have implemented security policies, rules and technical measures to protect the personal data that we have under our control from:

• Unauthorised access

• Improper use or disclosure

• Unauthorised modification

• Unlawful destruction or accidental loss

Unfortunately, despite the aforementioned technology and security features, no data transmission over the Internet can ever be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, we are unable to provide any absolute assurances in this regard or guarantee that the information you provide to us will be secure at all times, and we cannot be responsible for any event arising from unauthorised access to your personal information. We will therefore not be held responsible for events arising from third parties gaining unauthorized access to your personal information.

Please note also that we may use overseas facilities to process or back up information. As a result, we may transfer to and store your personal information at our overseas facilities. However, this does not change any of our commitments to safeguard your privacy.

All our employees and data processors, who have access to, and are associated with the processing of personal data, are obliged to respect the confidentiality of our visitors' personal data.

We ensure that your personal data will not be disclosed to State institutions and authorities except if required by law or other regulation.

• Right to be informed about how your personal information is being used

• Right to request that we amend or update your personal data where it is inaccurate or incomplete

• Right to request that we delete your data, stop processing or collecting it

You have the right to ask us not to process any personal information for marketing purposes. You can withdraw your consent by updating your marketing preferences in your account or by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in any marketing email that we send you. Alternatively, you can also opt out by emailing us at [email protected].

The data protection law gives you the individual right to access your personal information, object to the use of your personal information for certain purposes, the right to amend, erase, restrict or receive a machine-readable copy of your personal information. If you are unable to fulfil your request through your account, please email [email protected] and we will handle your request in accordance with the law.

If you wish to access the personal data which you have provided to us and which we may hold in our database, you can ask us by sending us an email at [email protected].

• Erased

• Rectified or amended

• Completed

We reserve the right to refuse to provide our visitors with a copy of their personal data to the extent permitted by law.

We do, however, allow you to challenge our decision to refuse to provide you with a copy of your personal data.

You should also note that the processing of information on the crescentrating.com site and the transmission of transaction messages relating to your travel reservations or purchases, may involve transmissions over various networks (which may not be secure) and to various countries and be subject to further processing and storage of data in such countries.

CrescentRating Pte Ltd retains the exclusive right to amend this Policy from time to time. If we make any substantial changes in the way that we use your personal information, we will notify you by posting a prominent announcement on our web page or by way of an e-mail to you, and you will have a choice as to whether or not we may use the information in this different manner.
