is Vancouver Vacation’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect
while operating our websites.
Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Vancouver Vacation collects non-personally-identifying information of the
sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference,
referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Vancouver Vacation’s purpose in
collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand
how Vancouver Vacation’s visitors use its website. From time to
time, Vancouver Vacation may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by
publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Vancouver Vacation also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol
(IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on http://vancouver-vacation.com blogs/sites. Vancouver Vacation only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same
circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that
commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site
where the comment was left.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Vancouver Vacation’s websites choose to interact
with Vancouver Vacation in ways that require Vancouver Vacation to gather
personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Vancouver Vacation gathers
depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at http://vancouver-vacation.com to provide a
username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Vancouver Vacation are asked to
provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to
process those transactions. In each case, Vancouver Vacation collects such information only insofar as
is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with
Vancouver Vacation. Vancouver Vacation does not disclose personally-identifying information
other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with
the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Aggregated Statistics
Vancouver Vacation may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Vancouver Vacation discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information
