Privacy Policy
The Asian American Hotel Owners Association, Inc. (AAHOA) has created
this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our commitment to
privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and
dissemination practices for this website and our organization.
Collection and Use of Information.
AAHOA may provide on its website or in publications certain membership
application forms, registration forms, order forms, and other requests
for information. Such requests may require you to give us contact
information (like your name and email address), financial information
(like your credit card numbers), and demographic information (like your
address, zip code or regional preferences). We use contact information
from such forms to send you information about our organization, or other
member organizations, and may allow other member organizations to do the
same. We use the contact information to deliver products and
services. Financial information that is collected is used to bill the
user for products and services ordered. Membership information is
used in accordance with our membership agreements and bylaws.
Member's contact information is also used to contact the individual when
necessary. A member's name and address is made available to other
members in a contact list. Select members may have access to
additional contact information such as telephone numbers, facsimile
numbers and e-mail addresses. From time to time, AAHOA may make
contact information available to third parties to allow such third
parties to send communications that may be of interest to you.
Members control whether or not their name is included on our contact
list made available to members or other third parties. Users may opt-out
of receiving future communications; see the choice/opt-out section
below.
IP Address, Cookies and Other Technology.
We use your Internet Protocol (IP) address to help diagnose problems
with our server and to administer our website. Your IP address is used

our service and to offer a more personalized service.
