PURPOSE FOR COLLECTION, PROCESSING, AND DISCLOSURE

Collection & Use
De Rhu Beach Resort is fully committed to providing you with information about the collection and use of personally identifiable information (PII) furnished by, or collected from, visitors while using our web sites, products and services. It is our practice not to ask you for information unless we need it or intend to use it. Some of the primary purposes for collecting your PII are as follows:

Providing services such as processing a transaction (e.g., making a reservation, fulfilling a request for information, or completing a product order) marketing and communications with you in relation to the products and services offered by De Rhu Beach Resort, our strategic marketing partners, and other trusted third parties performing market research via surveys to better serve your needs, improve the effectiveness of our web sites, your hotel experience, our various types of communications, advertising campaigns, and/or promotional activities.

You will always be offered the choice not to submit your PII or to decide what communications you want to receive from us. However, doing so may cause certain transactions to become affected. For example, not providing a name will prevent the processing of reservations.

Processing and Disclosure
In most cases, the information you provide is added to a local or global database. In the course of processing your information, it may be necessary to transfer your PII to De Rhu Beach Resort affiliates and/or third party service providers located in Malaysia and throughout the world for the purposes outlined within this Privacy Statement. As a general practice,  De Rhu Beach Resortdoes not sell, rent, or give physical possession of your PII to unaffiliated third parties. Situations in which De Rhu Beach Resort may disclose your information to others include: when we have received your consent to do so in situations where sharing or disclosing your information is required in order to offer you products or services you desire (e.g., a vacation package) when companies or services providers that perform business activities on behalf of De Rhu Beach Resort require such information (e.g., credit card processing, customer support services, market research administration or database management services) to comply with legal or regulatory requirements or obligations in accordance with applicable law or court order in case of emergency such as to safeguard the life, health, or property of an individual.

If information is shared as mentioned above, we seek to limit the scope of information that is furnished to the amount necessary for the performance of the specific function. Unless otherwise precluded by legal process, we require third parties to protect your PII and abide by applicable privacy laws and regulations.

CONSENT

As part of our commitment to keep you informed, we may mail, e-mail, telephone, or contact you by other means to notify you of new De Rhu products and services, or upcoming special offers, events, enhancements, or other relevant information that may be of interest to you. You may also receive mailings or other communications from carefully selected third parties. We always offer you the option to decline any or all of these communications by following the directions included in our e-mails or other communications, or by contacting us directly.

We would like to keep all of our guests and visitors informed and equally able to take advantage of the benefits offered by De Rhu Beach Resort and its strategic marketing partners. However, if you reside outside of Malaysia, certain data privacy regulations may require us to obtain your permission before we send you information that you have not requested from us.

In some cases your permission will be implied from the nature of the service requested or transaction undertaken. For example, De Rhu  may collect and use personally identifiable information that you volunteer, or behavioral data or information collected in the aggregate. In addition, your permission will be deemed given for communications from us that are necessary to fulfill transactions and services that you request.

In certain circumstances, we will seek your express permission when we collect information that is regarded under certain data privacy regulations to be sensitive in nature (e.g., information revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, or health conditions).

WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT US

  • Nice hotel on the beachfront, ample gardens and huge swimming pools, (one under maintenance during our stay, July 2016). Staff very friendly and welcoming. The hotel is set back from the main road and needs good signage to attract customers. It seems that some of the rooms (sea view) have been refurbished and are very large and comfortable, whilst others (mainland view) could do with an update as they are rather drab. Breakfast buffet was good but catered mainly for local tastes, however there was still ample for other tastes to get you off to a good start to the day. Tea, coffee, water, kettle, iron, tv, newspapers are available in each room as well as a good WiFi connection. Gardens are lovely but could do with a little TLC, loved the rabbit run and the pigeon loft which are situated behind the play park. All in all a great, reasonably priced place to stay whilst visiting Kuantan.

  • We held a big family and friends birthday party in the De Rhu Oriental Restaurant as a surprise for our mother's birthday. Both in the planning and on the day the restaurant manager and all his staff were tremendously helpful and welcoming. The food was just perfect for the occasion and we can recommend it without reservation. A perfect delight!.   We will sure return for another occasion.
