Mize (“Mize”, “we”, “us”, “our”) is committed to maintaining the privacy of its users. The following information describes how Hotelmize collects and processes information about its users (“you”, “user”) when interacting with our website (the “Website”).
Our Privacy Policy explains:
By using our Website, you agree to this Privacy Policy.
mize helps to generate higher profits for hotel distributors by utilizing automated price prediction and efficiency algorithms, combining big data and machine learning capabilities, to track and analyze reservations from the moment of booking until check-in. By having access to reservation details, our algorithms enable us to predict when room rates will reach their lowest point to achieve maximum savings on a single rebooking (“Services”).
For the avoidance of doubt, this Privacy Policy does not apply to the extent that mize processes Personal Information in the role of a processor on behalf of its customers.
