Privacy policy

Commercial Activities

Commercial activities as part of a stay must be arranged directly with the hotel.

Your rights

You as a private person have more rights under the new personal information act.

You have the right to request access, rectification or erasure of any personal information we are processing about you. You also have the right to demand the restriction of processing, object to processing and claim the right to data portability.

To exercise your rights, please go to the following web page https://www.nordicchoicehotels.com/terms-and-conditions/terms-and-conditions/right-for-access/ . We will respond to your inquiry to us as soon as possible and no later than 30 days.

We will ask you to confirm your identity or ask you to provide further information before we allow you to exercise your rights in this manner. We must do this to ensure that we only provide access to your personal information to you – and not someone who is claiming to be you.

Processing of personal information in other cases

If you contact our customer service or otherwise address us with requests, we will process personal information you provide as far as is necessary to be able to answer and log your inquiry. The basis for this is legitimate interests or fulfilling agreements with you or answering your inquiries.

In addition to the treatment described in our privacy statement or based on your consent, we may or may not process personal data when the applicable law, including the Personal Information Act and the GDPR, valid government order or court requires us or allows us to do so.

Camera surveillance

We have camera surveillance in some areas where many people are staying. The purpose of the camera surveillance is to prevent and investigate crimes and limit the effects of possible accidents. The cameras are available to provide increased safety and security for our guests, staff and business and are used only for these purposes.

In a balancing of interest we have found that the interest in preventing and investigating criminal offenses is more important than the interest of individuals protection of personal integrity (Data Protection Regulation Article 6.1 f).

The material from the camera surveillance is subject to confidentiality and is provided only to the police for investigation of crimes. The camera equipment and materials are protected by strong physical and technical protection and only a few people have access to the material. According to the principle of storage minimization, the material is deleted after 30 days.

If you have questions regarding camera surveillance, please contact:

Hobo Hotel AB, Brunkebergstorg 4, 11151 Stockholm, telephone +46 (0) 8 578 827 00, email: stay@hobo.se

Processing of personal information related to booking and stay

In connection with any bookings made by you or by others on your behalf, we process the personal information we need to fulfil the agreement on booking and purchasing services. This is information you have provided us with directly or that you have given us through a travel agency or agent. We process information about things such as your identity, your contact information, and your payment information. In some cases, we will save your passport number. In addition, we handle other information you may have given us and which is relevant to your stay with us. This may be information about allergies or about special requests for your stay. We register all purchases and orders you make with us such as spa, restaurant, room service etc, to be able to provide such services and to pay for them.

We process this information as long as it is necessary for fulfilling the booking agreement with you, and as long as applicable laws or regulations require us to do so.

We log in using key cards in our hotel. We do this to counteract and solve a crime, and for security, including fire safety. We save the logs for 21 days.
