The following Additional Notice applies only to residents of the European Union, the European Economic Area and Switzerland who visit the Site.
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) you have a number of important rights free of charge. GDPR gives people under its protection certain rights with respect to their personal information collected by us via our Services. Accordingly, HOSTFULLY INC recognizes and will comply with GDPR and those rights, except as limited by applicable law. In summary, the rights under GDPR include:
Right of Access. This includes your right to access the personal information we gather about you, and your right to obtain information about the sharing, storage, security and processing of that information. Right to Correction. This is your right to request correction of your personal information.
Right to Erasure. This is your right to request, subject to certain limitations under applicable law, that your personal information be erased from our possession (also known as the “Right to be forgotten”). However, if applicable law requires us to comply with your request to delete your information, fulfillment of your request may prevent you from using our services and may result in closing your account.
Right to Restrict Processing. This is your right to request restriction of how and why your personal information is used or processed.
Right to Object. This is your right, in certain situations, to object to how or why your personal information is processed.
Right to Portability. This is your right to receive the personal information we have about you and the right to transmit it to another party.
Right to not be subject to Automated Decision-Making. This is your right to object and prevent any decision that could have a legal, or similarly significant, effect on you from being made solely based on automated processes. This right is limited, however, if the decision is necessary for performance of any contract between you and us, is allowed by applicable European law, or is based on your explicit consent.
Right to Lodge a Complaint With a DPA. You have the right to make a complaint regarding our handling of your personal information with your local supervisory data protection authority (“DPA”).
To exercise any of the above-listed rights (with the exception of the right to lodge a complaint with a DPA, which you may do directly to a DPA), please contact us at support@hostfully.com.

Renters may send inquiries to members via clickable links on the listings on a site. Further, renters and members may communicate with each other via tools on a site.
If you choose to send an inquiry through these links, your personal information, including your email address and any other information you supply (unless the site specifies otherwise),will be visible to the member in question so that they might reply directly to you.
Your details may also be sent to us and we have access to those communications even if you contact the member directly. If members and renters further engage in communications through a site, we also have access to those communications, which we monitor for trust and security purposes.
Additionally those inquiries and messages may be hosted on, be processed by or transmit through our servers.

We, or third parties we do business with, may use cookies to help us analyze our web page flow, customize our services, content and advertising, measure promotional effectiveness and promote trust and safety. Cookies are commonly used at most major transactional websites in much the same way we use them here at our site.
If you receive an unsolicited email that appears to be from us or one of our members that requests personal information (such as your credit card, login, or password), or that asks you to verify or confirm your account or other personal information by clicking on a link, that email was likely to have been sent by someone trying to unlawfully obtain your information, sometimes referred to as a “phisher” or “spoofer.” We do not ask for this type of information in an email.
