:: Security ::

This web site takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When you submit sensitive information via the web site, your information is protected both online and off-line.

We have installed a number of security measures to protect the confidentiality of your personal information:

  • We have a firewall to prevent unauthorized access to our systems.
     
  • Your information lives on a separate database server that sits behind this firewall. We further safeguard your information with an encryption technology called Secure Socket Layer (SSL). SSL encryption protects any personal information you send over the Internet by making it impossible for that information to be deciphered by any systems other than the ones we use.
     
  • When our "Stay and Play" package booking form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as phone number, email address and/or credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just "surfing".
     
  • While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect access to user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information.

:: Opt-In Policy ::

During the booking process, our users are given the opportunity to "opt-in" to receive future communications from the Fairways of the Valley.  By allowing users to opt-in, we believe our customers have maximum control. You will always have the option to unsubscribe from receiving future information.  Details for unsubscribing will be included in every future communication.
