PRIVACY POLICY
This Hub Motel Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) discloses the privacy practices for us at TheHubMotel.com (“TheHubMotel.com”) and how we treat the information that we collect and receive on and through TheHubMotel.com. Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we want to help you understand the terms and conditions surrounding the collection and use of that information. This Privacy Policy discloses the types of information we gather, how we use it, and how to correct or change it. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of companies that TheHubMotel.com does not own or control or to people that TheHubMotel.com does not employ or manage. By visiting this website, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree please do not use or access our website.
1. Information Collected
TheHubMotel.com collects information from users at different points on its website. Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you with the best and most useful content and services. Information we collect includes:
(a) Personally Identifiable Information. This includes information that can directly identify an individual such as an individual's name, mailing address, phone number or email address. In order to contact us about TheHubMotel.com, we may have a link on our website to a submission form that you may fill out to send us an e-mail. Please note that this is not associated with any link to a third party submission form that may relate to any advertisement, reservation or service inquiry you have about TheHubMotel.com (e.g. the online reservation booking system). The TheHubMotel.com submission form, if any, may ask for Personally Identifiable Information so that we can communicate with you about your inquiry.
(b) IP addresses. We may use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the website, track users' movements, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to Personally Identifiable Information.
(c) Cookies and Web Beacons. Internet browsers have a feature called cookies, which stores small amounts of data on a user’s computer hard drive that contains information about that user. Web beacons, also called “web bugs,” “pixel tags” or “clear GIFs” are used in combination with cookies. A Web beacon is typically a small graphic image on a website that is also used to collect information about a user (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number). If a user rejects the cookie and/or modifies their browser settings to prevent / turn off cookies (which should also prevent web beacons from tracking a user’s activities on the website), the user may still use our website. The only drawback to this is that the user may be limited in some areas of our website. Cookies and web beacons can also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our website. Some of our business partners use cookies and/or web beacons on our website (for example, advertisers); however, we have no access to or control over these cookies and web beacons.
(d) Third Party Advertisers. We use third-party companies to serve advertisements when you visit our website or use our services. Third-party companies may also separately place or recognize a cookie file on your browser, use web beacons or utilize similar technologies to collect information in the course of ads being served on TheHubMotel.com. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.
(e) Information from Third Parties. In certain circumstances, in order for our website to properly fulfill its obligation to our users, it is necessary for us to supplement the information we receive with information from third party sources.
2. How Information Collected Is Used
We will not knowingly use information collected on this website in ways different from what is disclosed in the Privacy Policy that is in effect.
(a) Demographic Information. We will share aggregated demographic information with our partners and advertisers. The aggregated demographic information is not linked to any Personally Identifiable Information that can identify any individual person.
(b) Communicating with Our Users. We use Personally Identifiable Information (such as the user’s name, telephone number or email address) to communicate with that specific user when they have questions, concerns or comments about TheHubMotel.com. If a user contacts us, we may or may not delete the user’s emails or voicemails to us.
(c) Information Shared With Third Parties. We share information with third parties in order to give our customers access to a great variety of services. Specifically, we may do the following:
(i) Partner with third parties who provide services (e.g. online reservations) to our users. When the user signs up for or agrees to receive a specific service provided by the third party, we share the information that is needed for the third party to provide the services.
(ii) Share your Personally Identifiable Information with other entities that are owned by TheHubMotel.com, that own TheHubMotel.com, or have some sort of corporate ownership relationship with TheHubMotel.com.
(d) Addressing Legal Issues. Further, we provide Personally Identifiable Information to respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims. We believe it is necessary to share Personally Identifiable Information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of TheHubMotel.com's policies, or as otherwise required by law.
(e)
3. Usage by Children Under Age 18

We do not knowingly contact, market to, solicit, collect or use Personally Identifiable Information from or about any individual under the age of 18. It is possible that by fraud or deception we may receive information pertaining to children under the age of 18. If we are notified that we have personal information regarding a person under the age of 18, as soon as we reasonably verify the information, we will either obtain parental consent or otherwise delete the information from the account and/or service. However, the information may remain on a log in our servers.
