We request information from the user on our reservation form. Here a user must provide contact information (like name and address). This information is used for booking purposes. If we have trouble processing a booking, this contact information is used to get in touch with the customer.
Special Offers
Some sections of the site request an email address as a means of delivery or requested information. Such information might include regular subscriber newsletters, details of special offers and such. Communications of this type are opted into, and can be opted out of at any time.
Guestbook
The Hotel Guestbook requires a registration process be completed if you wish to post, or reply to, comments. The registration process does not require anything but very basic details, and is not used for other purpose whatsoever other than identifying customers within the guestbook area of the website. No information gathered within the guestbook, is disclosed to any third parties whatsoever, for any reason. However, should any information of a racially, sexually or other particularly inflammatory nature be posted the George IV Hotel reserves the right to pass such content to the relevant authorities should it deem the need to do so.

A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. No cookies are used in the main sections of the George IV Hotel website, however, the Guestbook (which itself requires registration) does place a cookie on your computer, only if requested to do so, to remember your user name and password when logging onto the guestbook.
Some of our business partners may also, from time to time, use cookies on our site (for example, advertisers). However, we have no access to or control over these cookies.
