1. Who we are and what this Privacy Policy covers

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") explains how Travill Partners LLC, doing business as The Burgundy Inn ("The Burgundy Inn," "we," "our," or "us"), collects, uses, discloses, and otherwise processes personal information when you: visit our website at theburgundyinn.com (the "Site"); request a reservation, stay at the property at 41121 Big Bear Blvd, Big Bear Lake, CA 92315 (the "Property"), or use any of its amenities; submit a contact, group, wedding, retreat, or newsletter form; opt into our SMS / text-messaging program; email, call, or otherwise communicate with us; or interact with our official social-media accounts. This Policy does not apply to information collected by third parties whose sites or services we link to or integrate with, including Cloudbeds, payment processors, OTA channels, and analytics vendors. By using the Site or transacting with us, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy.

2. Categories of information we collect

The categories below align with personal-information categories defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act ("CCPA / CPRA," Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.140).

  • Identifiers — name, postal address, email, phone, mobile phone, IP address, online identifiers, transaction ID.
  • Customer records (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.80(e)) — payment-card information (processed by Cloudbeds and our PCI-compliant card processor; we do not store full card numbers), driver's license / government-ID number (collected at check-in for identity verification only), signature on rental agreement.
  • Protected classification information — not deliberately collected; only as voluntarily disclosed for accommodation, dietary, or service-animal requests.
  • Commercial information — reservation history, booking dates, room type, group size, on-property purchases, preferences, feedback.
  • Internet or network activity — pages viewed, referring URL, search terms, session duration, click events, device fingerprint elements, approximate city-level geolocation from IP.
  • Geolocation data — approximate (city-level) only; precise GPS only if you affirmatively grant browser permission (the Site does not currently request this).
  • Audio, video, or visual — security-camera footage in public/common areas (entrances, parking, lobby, bar); voicemail recordings; photos/videos you submit; photos/videos we capture at events for marketing (subject to the photo release in our Terms).
  • Professional or employment information — collected only for corporate-retreat / group-event inquiries.
  • Education information — not collected.
  • Inferences — preferences, propensity to book, repeat-guest segments derived from the above.
  • Sensitive personal information (CPRA) — we collect only: (a) government-ID number for identity verification at check-in (held no longer than required and never used for marketing); (b) precise account/payment-card credentials, which are tokenized and held by our PCI-compliant payment processor, not by us; and (c) any health/accessibility information you voluntarily disclose in an accommodation request, used only to fulfill that request. We do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics, and you have the right to limit our use of it (see § 9).

We do not knowingly collect biometric identifiers, genetic data, union-membership information, or contents of mail, email, or text messages that are not directed to us.

3. How we collect information — sources

  • Directly from you — via forms, booking flow, email, phone, in-person check-in, on-property guest cards, event/retreat inquiries.
  • Automatically — via cookies, server logs, and analytics tags as you use the Site (see § 7).
  • From service providers acting on our behalf — Cloudbeds, our email service provider, our SMS / CRM platform (HighLevel / InnDojo Inc), our payment processor, and our hosting provider (Cloudflare).
  • From OTAs and third-party booking channels — Expedia, Booking.com, Airbnb forward reservation and contact information to Cloudbeds, who in turn shares it with us.
  • From advertising platforms — if you submit a lead form in an ad on Facebook or Instagram, Meta Platforms provides us the information you entered on that form.
  • From third-party data sources — business contact information (such as name, job title, organization, and work email address) for event planners and organizations that may be interested in group stays, used for our group-sales outreach.
  • From social-media platforms — only information you choose to share via public posts, tags, mentions, or direct messages.
  • From referrals or recommendations — if a third party books a room or event on your behalf.
  • From publicly available sources — business listings, news mentions, public property records.

4. How we use your information — purposes

We process personal information only for the purposes listed below. For GDPR, our lawful bases are: (a) performance of a contract; (b) compliance with a legal obligation; (c) our legitimate interests; or (d) your consent (withdrawable at any time).

  • To process and fulfill reservations — confirming bookings, charging your payment method, sending pre-arrival information, check-in/out, on-property requests. Basis: contract.
  • To respond to inquiries and provide customer service. Basis: contract / legitimate interest.
  • To send transactional and operational messages — booking confirmations, modifications, check-in reminders, security alerts, accessibility responses. Basis: contract.
  • To send marketing communications — newsletter, special offers, seasonal updates, event announcements — only to people who affirmatively opt in. Unsubscribe via link in any marketing email or by replying STOP to a marketing SMS. Basis: consent.
  • To measure our advertising and show remarketing ads — attributing inquiries and bookings to the ads that led to them, and showing our ads to people who have visited the Site. Basis: consent where required by law / legitimate interest.
  • To build advertising audiences: sharing hashed (one-way encrypted) contact information of past guests and contacts with our advertising partners to show ads to, or exclude, past guests and to find similar audiences. Basis: consent where required by law / legitimate interest.
  • To analyze data and draft communications with AI tools — using AI services to analyze reservation, lead, and marketing data for internal reporting and to help draft marketing content, which our team reviews before use. Basis: legitimate interest.
  • To operate, secure, and improve the Site — analytics, fraud detection, debugging, A/B testing, accessibility audits. Basis: legitimate interest.
  • To manage the Property safely — CCTV recording in public/common areas, incident investigation, evictions for violation of Terms, ADA accommodations. Basis: legitimate interest / legal obligation.
  • To comply with legal obligations — tax reporting, ADA compliance, A2P 10DLC carrier requirements, lawful requests from courts and regulators. Basis: legal obligation.
  • To defend or assert legal claims. Basis: legitimate interest.
  • For corporate transactions — merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, with personal information transferred subject to this Policy. Basis: legitimate interest.

We do not use personal information for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects, and we do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics.

5. How we share information — recipients

We do not sell or rent personal information for monetary consideration. We share information only with the following categories of recipients, each bound by contractual terms that limit use to the purposes for which we provided the information:

  • Service providers and processors — Cloudbeds (reservation management; privacy policy); Stripe (payment processing with PCI-DSS compliant tokenization; full card numbers are never stored by us; privacy policy); our email service provider; HighLevel / InnDojo Inc (SMS, CRM, and website inquiry forms); Cloudflare (hosting, security, Web Analytics; privacy policy); Google Analytics 4 (privacy policy) configured with IP anonymization; our accountants, attorneys, insurers.
  • Advertising and measurement partners: Meta Platforms (Facebook and Instagram; privacy policy), Google (Google Ads, Google Analytics, and Google Tag Manager; privacy policy), and Microsoft Advertising (Bing; privacy statement). We use these partners to measure which ads lead to inquiries and bookings, to show our ads to people who have visited the Site, and to reach past guests and similar audiences. For those purposes we may share hashed (one-way encrypted) contact information from our reservation and CRM records with them.
  • Email and marketing platforms — Brevo and Bookdrip (guest marketing and email campaigns about property news and local events we host or take part in, such as the Big Bear Crawl); Mailgun (newsletter email delivery); NeverBounce (email address verification before newsletters are sent); Resend (transactional email, such as form notifications and automated reports); Web3Forms (backup delivery of website form submissions); and Instantly (email outreach to group-sales prospects).
  • AI services — Anthropic (Claude), used to analyze reservation, lead, and marketing data for internal reporting and to draft marketing content.
  • Business productivity — Google Workspace (business email and documents, including our group-sales pipeline).
  • Hosting and infrastructure — Cloudflare (named above), Neon (database hosting), GitHub (website code hosting), and Dropbox (file storage).
  • Contractors — our web, marketing, and technology contractors who work on our behalf under contract.
  • OTAs and booking channels — Expedia, Booking.com, Airbnb — exchange of reservation information as required to fulfill bookings and for fraud/anti-piracy. Each operates under its own privacy policy.
  • Government, law enforcement, and other legal authorities — when required by valid legal process, when needed to protect the rights, property, or safety of The Burgundy Inn, our guests, employees, or the public, or to investigate suspected fraud or violations of our Terms.
  • Successors — a buyer, investor, or successor in a merger, acquisition, divestiture, financing, bankruptcy, restructuring, or similar corporate transaction.
  • With your direction or consent — for example, coordinating with a wedding planner, charter bus operator, or third-party vendor for your event.

SMS / text-message data. No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. Information sharing to subcontractors in support services, such as customer service, is permitted. All other use case categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

Sale, sharing, and targeted advertising. We do not sell or rent personal information for monetary consideration. We use advertising, analytics, remarketing, and attribution tools (described above and in § 7) that may involve disclosures of identifiers, internet activity information, or similar data to advertising and analytics partners. Depending on applicable law and the specific data flow, some of these disclosures may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising under California law. You may ask us to stop by emailing manager@theburgundyinn.com with the subject line "Privacy Request - Do Not Sell or Share." You can also opt out for your browser by turning on Global Privacy Control (GPC); when the Site receives a GPC signal it does not load our advertising and analytics tags (see § 8). The Site does not currently offer a separate cookie-preferences control. We do not have actual knowledge of selling or sharing personal information of consumers under 16 years of age.

6. SMS / text messaging program (A2P 10DLC)

If you opt in to receive SMS communications from The Burgundy Inn, the following apply. These clauses are also restated in Terms & Conditions § 13.

6.1 Program identity

The Burgundy Inn operates a text-messaging program to send (a) marketing messages about special offers, discounts, package deals, and service updates, and (b) non-marketing messages about appointment scheduling, appointment reminders, appointment confirmations, and account notifications, including booking confirmations, reservation reminders, modification notices, group-inquiry replies, accessibility responses, and operational updates such as power-outage notices. Consent for marketing and non-marketing messages is collected on separate, distinct, unchecked-by-default checkboxes; you may opt into one, both, or neither.

6.2 No information sharing

No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. Information sharing to subcontractors in support services, such as customer service, is permitted. All other use case categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

6.3 Granular, affirmative consent

Marketing and non-marketing SMS consent are presented as separate, unchecked-by-default boxes. Submitting a form (even one that includes your phone number) does not opt you in to messages; consent must be affirmatively checked. Consent to receive SMS is never required to use our services, complete a booking, or submit a form.

6.4 Opt out anytime

Reply STOP to any text from us to be removed from the program. We will confirm your opt-out via SMS and you will receive no further marketing or non-marketing messages from us until you re-opt in.

6.5 Help

Reply HELP to any text from us for assistance, or contact manager@theburgundyinn.com or +1 (858) 799-0213.

6.6 Carriers, rates, and frequency

Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. For questions about your text plan or data plan, contact your wireless provider.

6.7 Compliance

This SMS program is operated in accordance with the CTIA Short Code Monitoring Handbook, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), the CAN-SPAM Act, and applicable A2P 10DLC carrier requirements.

7. Cookies, analytics, and similar technologies

  • Strictly necessary — security. Cloudflare uses session cookies and a server-side fingerprint to detect malicious traffic, prevent DDoS, and route legitimate visitors.
  • Performance and analytics — aggregated. Cloudflare Web Analytics (cookieless, no IP retention) and Google Analytics 4 (configured with IP anonymization).
  • Functional. Local-storage flags that remember whether you have dismissed a notice on this device.
  • Advertising and measurement. The Site loads Google Tag Manager (container GTM-5XNR8BJF), which deploys our Google Analytics 4 tag and our Google Ads conversion-tracking and remarketing tags, and the Meta Pixel (ID 1354173059542728) for Facebook and Instagram advertising. These tools use cookies and similar identifiers to measure which ads lead to inquiries and bookings and to show our ads to people who have visited the Site. They are not loaded when your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal (see § 8).

You can disable cookies in your browser at any time. Disabling some cookies may degrade or disable Site features.

8. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Our Site does not respond to browser "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals because there is no industry consensus on what such signals mean. We honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. When your browser sends GPC, the Site does not load the Meta Pixel or Google Tag Manager (and therefore does not load our Google Analytics or Google Ads tags) in that browser, and we treat the signal as a request to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information and of targeted advertising for that browser or device under California, Colorado, Connecticut, and other applicable state privacy laws.

9. Your California rights (CCPA / CPRA)

If you are a California resident, the CCPA / CPRA gives you the following rights:

  • Right to know the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected, the sources, business or commercial purposes, and categories of third parties with whom we share it, in the preceding 12 months.
  • Right to delete, subject to legal-retention exceptions.
  • Right to correct inaccurate personal information.
  • Right to opt out of "sale" or "sharing" — email us as described below or turn on Global Privacy Control in your browser (see § 5 and § 8).
  • Right to limit use of sensitive personal information — direct us to use sensitive PI only to perform the services you requested.
  • Right to non-retaliation — no denial of service, different prices, or different quality for exercising privacy rights.

How to exercise your rights. Email manager@theburgundyinn.com with subject "Privacy Request" or call +1 (858) 799-0213. We verify identity using information already on file before fulfilling the request. We respond within 45 calendar days, with possible 45-day extension if reasonably necessary.

Authorized agents. You may designate an authorized agent via signed written authorization or power of attorney. We verify the agent's authority and may ask you to confirm directly.

Appeals. Reply to our denial within 60 days; we respond to appeals within 60 calendar days.

"Shine the Light" (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.83). The Burgundy Inn does not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

10. Your rights under other U.S. state privacy laws

Residents of Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Utah, Texas, Florida, Oregon, Montana, Iowa, Delaware, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Tennessee, Indiana, Kentucky, Minnesota, Maryland, Rhode Island, and other states with comprehensive consumer-privacy laws have rights that include some or all of: access, correction, deletion, portability, and the right to opt out of targeted advertising, sale, or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects. To exercise these rights, contact us using the methods in § 17. We honor verified requests within the statutory window applicable to your state of residence.

11. Your rights under the EU / UK GDPR

If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, GDPR (and equivalent UK and Swiss laws) gives you the following rights: access; rectification; erasure (subject to legal-retention exceptions); restriction; objection to processing based on legitimate interests and to direct-marketing processing; data portability for data processed on the basis of contract or consent; withdrawal of consent at any time; right not to be subject to automated decision-making with legal or similarly significant effects (we do not engage in such processing); and right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. Direct inquiries to manager@theburgundyinn.com.

12. Data retention

  • Reservation records — 7 years after the stay (IRS and California Department of Tax and Fee Administration requirements).
  • Payment-card data — not stored by us; held only by our PCI-compliant payment processor.
  • Government-ID copies or numbers — destroyed within 30 days of check-out unless required for an ongoing dispute, investigation, or legal hold.
  • Newsletter subscriptions — until you unsubscribe, plus a suppression record indefinitely to honor your opt-out.
  • SMS opt-in records — for as long as you are opted in plus 4 years after opt-out (TCPA defense).
  • Contact / inquiry submissions — 2 years from last contact, unless the inquiry led to a reservation.
  • Security camera footage — rolling 30 days, except segments retained for active investigation or legal hold.
  • Server, analytics, and audit logs — rolling 90 days raw, indefinitely aggregated/non-identifying.

13. Information security

We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These include: HTTPS/TLS encryption for all Site traffic; HTTP Strict Transport Security with preload; a strict Content Security Policy; X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy, and Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy security headers; access controls on backend systems; vendor due-diligence reviews; and PCI-DSS reliance on tokenization for payment data. Despite these measures, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure. If we become aware of a breach affecting your personal information, we will notify you and the appropriate authorities in accordance with applicable law.

14. International transfers

The Burgundy Inn operates from the United States. If you access the Site or transact with us from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to, processed in, and stored in the United States, where data-protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction. By using the Site or contacting us, you consent to such transfer. Where required, we rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (and the UK addendum) for transfers from the EU/UK to the United States.

15. Children's privacy

The Site is intended for adults aged 21 and older (in line with our reservation policy). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 as defined by COPPA, nor do we sell or share personal information of consumers under 16 as defined by CCPA. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

16. Changes to this policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Effective date" and "Version" at the top of this page. Material changes will be highlighted on the Site for at least 30 days before they take effect.
