Strawberry consists of the chains Comfort, Quality, Clarion, plus a number of stand-alone hotels. Some of the stand-alone hotels use their own local systems for booking and invoicing. These hotels have their own personal data declarations and will be their own controllers for booking and hotel stays.

In connection with bookings made by you or by others on your behalf, we process the personal data we need to fulfil the agreement for booking and purchase of services. This is information which you have given us directly or via travel or other agents. For example, we process information about your identity, your contact details and your payment details. In certain cases, we store your passport number. We also process other information you may have given us which is relevant to your stay with us. This could be information about allergies or special requests for your stay. We record all purchases and orders you make with us, for example, spa services, restaurants, room service, etc. in order to provide such services and to enable you to pay for them.

We process this information for as long as necessary for fulfilling the booking agreement with you, and also as far as this is imposed on us by current legislation or official requirements.

Our hotels have camera surveillance that is in use around the clock and we store information from all key cards used in our hotels. The purpose of camera surveillance and access control is to prevent, uncover and document crime and other undesirable incidents. Recordings from camera surveillance are stored and automatically deleted according to the various rules that apply in each country. Access control logs are deleted automatically after 21 days. To access this information, you must contact Strawberry and substantiate your claim, which will be reviewed.

If you wish, you may create a user account (web profile) on our website. Here you can choose to register your name, address, interests and other information in order to simplify later ordering processes. This information is collected from you.

The information you give will be stored together with booking data and purchase history. We will use this information to adjust the website and app to match your needs and also to customise your hotel stay with us. The starting point of our use of the information is the fulfilment of contracts with you.

As far as possible, we will specifically inform you of this at the time you take part in competitions or other activities.

Apart from the processing described in our Data Protection Declaration or based on your consent, in certain cases we must or may process personal data when this is imposed on us or permitted by applicable legislation, including the Norwegian Personal Data Act and GDPR, or by applicable orders from the authorities or courts.

We process information about contact persons appointed by our suppliers, business customers, cooperation partners, participants in events aimed at the business world and other persons acting in a business role. We do this in order to work efficiently, to enter into and enforce contracts, recruit employees, manage our business and develop our business and professional network. Such information typically comprises name, contact information, position, business, skills, commercial interests and participation in our events for the business world or a previous interest in us and our employees.

We store such information for as long as we consider that the person is one of our business contacts.

The starting point for this is our legitimate interests.

We do not pass on your personal data to third parties unless you have consented to this or unless the applicable legislation, including the Norwegian Personal Data Act and GDPR, or a valid order from the authorities or the courts permit or force us to do so.

For clarity, we would point out that our use of data controllers to process information on our behalf does not constitute surrender of information.

In order to ensure that we have the correct information about you, we may cleanse your information against other sources, such as telephone directories, public registries and the like. In some cases, it may be relevant to credit-check our customers, which involves obtaining credit data from other sources.

We use several data processors to allow us to deliver our services to you. Our biggest data processor is our booking system Cenium AS.

Because we are part of Choice Hotels International, Inc. (CHI), we use the same booking system as CHI. This means that personal information about accommodation orders is processed in the USA, with CHI as our data processor. Surrender of information to the USA is based on the EU model agreement for transfer from us as data controller in Europe to a data processor in the USA.
