This notice explains how Malinche, in Reserva Conchal, handles personal data, in line with Costa Rica's Law No. 8968 on the Protection of the Person regarding the Processing of Personal Data. It applies to this site and to bookings made with us by email or WhatsApp.
Who is responsible
The data controller is the business operated by Jair Villarreal, CR Dream Properties, which manages Malinche for its owner. You can reach us at [email protected] or on WhatsApp at +506 7009 9447.
What we collect and why
When you use the booking calendar, write to us or message us on WhatsApp, we receive your name, email, travel dates, number of guests and any message you send. A phone number is optional. For the Reserva Conchal gate we also need the names of the people in your group. If you pay online, the payment is handled by the payment provider, and we never see your card number.
We use this data to quote, confirm and manage your booking, to arrange your arrival and stay, to handle payments and refunds, and to answer your questions. We rely on your consent, which you give when you send us the data, and on what is needed to carry out the booking you asked for.
How long we keep it
We keep booking data for as long as needed to run your booking and handle any later question or claim about it. Payment records are kept for as long as tax law requires. After that we delete or anonymize the data.
Your rights
Under Law No. 8968 you have the right to access your data, to have it rectified, to ask for it to be deleted and to withdraw your consent. To use any of these rights, write to [email protected] from the email you booked with and say what you need. We reply within the time the law sets. If you feel your rights were not respected, you can file a complaint with PRODHAB, the Costa Rican data protection agency (Agencia de Protección de Datos de los Habitantes).
Cookies and analytics
This site does not use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. It only remembers your language choice (English or Spanish) in your browser's local storage, and that stays on your device. The booking calendar loads from HostFlowLab, which receives the dates you look up.
Minors
This site is not directed at people under 18, and whoever books must be 18 or older. We don't knowingly collect data from minors, other than the names of the children in a travelling group that the person booking gives us.
Changes
If we change this notice we will update the date at the top. Our booking terms explain the rest of how a booking works. Costa Rican law applies.
