Privacy Policy
GNG Vacation Rentals ("we," "our," "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes what personal information we collect, use, share, retain, or otherwise process in connection with our websites, mobile applications, and related services where this Policy is located or referenced (the "Platform").
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully before using the Platform or submitting personal information to us. By accessing or using our Platform, you acknowledge that you have reviewed and understood this Policy.
We collect personal information from and about you.
We collect information when you interact with our Platform — for example, when you visit our website or App, make a booking, contact us for support, or otherwise communicate with us.
- Personal Information: Name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and other contact details.
- Account Data: Login credentials and user profile information (e.g., property ownership, role type).
- Booking & Payment Information: Reservation dates, property preferences, and payment method details. Full card data is processed securely by third-party payment processors — we do not store complete card numbers.
- Preferences & Notes: Details related to your stay, maintenance requests, guest preferences, or operational notes.
- Communications: Content you share when contacting us via email, phone, chat, or the App. Where permitted by law, calls may be recorded for quality assurance.
- Device & Browser Data: Device model, operating system, browser type, unique device identifiers, and IP address.
- App Usage Data: Interactions within the App (pages viewed, session length, search and booking activity) via Firebase Analytics.
- Crash & Performance Data: Error reports and performance metrics via Firebase Crashlytics and Performance Monitoring.
- Cookies & Similar Technologies: Browser cookies, web beacons, and related tools. See Section 4 for details.
With your permission, our App may collect Precise Location data, used solely for property inspection tracking, attendance verification, or internal operational purposes.
We may receive limited personal information from trusted third parties, including payment processors, booking platforms (e.g., Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com), analytics and SMS providers, cloud infrastructure providers (e.g., MongoDB Atlas), and fraud detection or identity verification services.
How we use your personal information.
We use your personal information to operate and improve our services, communicate with you, and comply with legal obligations:
- Service Delivery: Process bookings, manage accounts, authenticate users, and fulfill our contractual obligations.
- Security & Fraud Prevention: Verify identity, detect unauthorized access, prevent fraud, and protect our platform.
- App Functionality: Enable property management tools, maintenance requests, booking notifications, and owner portal features.
- Performance & Improvement: Improve App stability and user experience based on analytics and crash data.
- Communications: Send transactional SMS or push notifications — booking confirmations, check-in instructions, reminders, and system alerts.
- Legal Compliance: Comply with applicable laws, regulations, court orders, and contractual obligations.
We may share personal information with third parties.
We share your personal information only as necessary to provide our services or as required by law:
- Service Providers: Vendors including Firebase, MongoDB Atlas, payment processors, SMS gateways, and analytics partners — all bound by confidentiality agreements.
- Booking Platforms: When your reservation originates from a third-party platform (e.g., Airbnb, Vrbo), relevant booking information may be shared to facilitate your stay.
- Property Owners & Local Teams: We may share your name, contact information, and stay details with property owners or local operations staff to coordinate services.
- Legal Compliance: We disclose information when required by law, subpoena, court order, or government authority.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, information may transfer to the successor entity under substantially equivalent privacy terms.

We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or destruction. These include encrypted data transmission (SSL/TLS), role-based access controls, third-party security monitoring via Firebase and MongoDB Atlas, and regular platform security reviews.
