It sets out the terms under which the Company processes personal data on behalf of the Property in connection with the Service.
2. Roles of the Parties
The Property acts as the Data Controller in respect of guest personal data (name, contact details, ID proof, stay history, billing information) entered into the Service. The Company acts as the Data Processor, processing such data solely on the Property's documented instructions, as provided through the ordinary functionality of the Service.
3. Scope & Nature of Processing
- Nature of processing: Storage, retrieval, organization, and display of guest and operational data through the Service's front desk, billing, housekeeping, KOT, banquet, reporting, and related modules.
- Categories of data subjects: Hotel guests, and the Property's own staff/users.
- Categories of personal data: Name, contact number, email, ID proof details, address, stay and billing history, and staff login credentials.

4. Processor Obligations
- Process personal data only as necessary to provide the Service and in accordance with the Property's instructions, this DPA, and applicable law.
- Ensure personnel authorized to process data are subject to confidentiality obligations.
- Implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures, including role-based access control, row-level security, encryption in transit, audit logging, rate limiting, and two-factor authentication.
- Assist the Property, where reasonably possible, in responding to data subject requests (access, correction, deletion) received from guests.
- Notify the Property without undue delay upon becoming aware of a personal data breach affecting the Property's data.
- Not engage a new sub-processor materially affecting the processing without informing the Property, except for existing infrastructure/hosting sub-processors necessary to operate the Service.

The Company uses reputable third-party cloud infrastructure and database hosting providers (sub-processors) to operate the Service. These sub-processors are bound by confidentiality and data protection obligations no less protective than those in this DPA.
7. Data Transfers
Personal data is hosted on secure cloud infrastructure. Where data is processed or stored outside India by an infrastructure sub-processor, the Company will ensure such processing is subject to appropriate contractual and security safeguards.

In the event of a confirmed personal data breach affecting the Property's data, the Company will notify the Property promptly upon confirmation, describe the nature of the breach to the extent known, and take reasonable steps to contain and remediate the incident.
9. Deletion or Return of Data
Upon termination of the Property's subscription, the Company will, upon written request, make the Property's data available for export within a reasonable period, and thereafter delete or anonymize such data in accordance with the Privacy Policy's retention terms, save where retention is required by applicable law.
