As required by law, information obtained from you will be stored in a secure location. Your personal data will NOT be disclosed to any person, company or entity except if required by law or as outlined in this privacy policy. Requests for verification of registration (past, present or future), information regarding your Prestige Club membership status or any other information that we have obtained from you is kept in strict confidence as described in this document.
PRESTIGE CLUB MEMBERSHIP ENROLLMENT
Only members of the Prestige Club can purchase goods and services at Prestige Club Destinations. When you enroll in the Prestige Club you will be required to sign an enrollment form (paper or electronic format) that outlines the rules and regulations of our private club. When enrolling in Prestige Club, we will obtain the following information:
Name, Address, Date of Birth, Gender, Driver’s License or Passport, Automobile Type, Automobile Color & License Plate. Prestige Club will also obtain personal information from you that may change to provide an elevated level of service. During the application process or renewal process Prestige will perform a research and review of public records. More information regarding our review and private records and how it is used in determining eligibility in the club can be found here.
VERIFICATION OF IDENTITY
To protect the identity of our members, all members are required to present photo identification upon arrival at a Prestige Club destination.

Because we are not able to positively identify a member over the phone, we will not verify Prestige Club Membership Rewards point balances over the phone. Membership rewards can be verified on our website by using a password created at the front desk of a Prestige Club destination. Membership reward points can also be verified in person at any Prestige Club destination after presenting a photo id.

information we cOLLECT
Prestige Club is a private club. Only Prestige Club members can purchase goods or services at Prestige Club Destinations. Once you have enrolled in Prestige Club, you will be assigned a Prestige Club Membership Number. The Prestige Club Membership Number ensures that your stay will be completely private and anonymous. When you utilize the Sites and/or Services of Prestige Club, we will record your Prestige Club Membership Number on documents at Prestige Club Destinations. By recording your Prestige Club Membership Number (your name, address, etc. is not recorded on documents at the front desk of the destination), we can ensure your complete anonymity. Please note that because your name is not recorded on documents at the front desk, we do not accept incoming telephone calls for guests. Additionally, to protect the identity of members, all members are required to present photo identification upon arrival at a Prestige Club destination.
In describing our collection, use, and sharing of information in this Policy, we refer to our collection and use of “Personal Information”. “Personal Information”, as used in this Policy, is personally identifiable information, which is information that directly identifies an individual, such as first and last name, mailing address, email address, date of birth, driver's license or State ID card number, biometrics, automobile type, automobile color, automobile license plate number, demographics or other online contact information, and/or cellular phone number and stay history. We collect Personal Information, as well as non-personally identifiable information on Prestige Club Sites and/or Services.
We collect Personal Information in two ways. First, we collect information you provide to us in optional, voluntary submissions, such as in membership enrollment forms, user profiles and promotional enrollments. Second, some Personal Information may be collected automatically. This is described below in “Passive Data Collection”.
Prestige Club never gives away information about our users. If you choose to provide Personal Information about yourself, Prestige Club will use this information only to communicate directly with you. Prestige Club will not sell, rent or otherwise disclose that information to third parties unless such disclosure is necessary for the purposes set forth in this Policy, by law or a policy or notice contained or associated with a specific Site(s) and/or Service(s).
