Privacy Policy

Internet Privacy Policy – Revised January 2025

We, the Independence Inn, (referred to as “Independence Inn,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) recognize the importance of protecting the privacy of certain information (“Information”) collected about our customers and prospective customers (referred to as “Customers,” “you” or “your”). This privacy statement discloses what information we gather, how we use it, and how to correct or change it. At Independence Inn, it is our intention to give you an understanding about how we collect your Information and the use we make of it in the course of our business.

Independence Inn gathers data that Customers provide through optional, voluntary registration on our site. Be assured that Independence Inn will not disclose personal Information to third parties without your consent, except as may be noted in this Privacy Policy or disclosed to you when the Information is submitted.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it…

1) Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. After approval of your comment, your profile picture, if any, is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

2) Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

3) Contact Forms

When you fill out one of our contact forms on this site, we receive your message and will get back to you as soon as possible.

4) Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

5) Analytics

We are always looking for ways to improve. We may collect data in regards to what pages people look at and how long they’re on each page of our website to be sure our site is giving guests the information they need.

Who we share your data with…

As a general rule, Independence Inn will not disclose any specific personal information that you submit to us about you (“Personal Information”) in a manner that connects you with the Personal Information, except when we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe in good faith that the law requires it.

Independence Inn may also disclose account Information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this Information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating Independence Inn terms of use or terms of service, or may be causing injury to or interference (either intentionally or unintentionally) with any of Independence Inn rights or property, other Independence Inn Customers, or anyone else. Independence Inn may disclose or access account Information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it and for administrative and other purposes that we deem necessary to maintain, service, and improve our products and services.

How long we retain your data…

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data…

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Is my information secure from others using the site?

The security of all information associated with our Customers is an important concern to us. We exercise care in providing secure transmission of your information from your computer to our servers. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your information, Independence Inn and its affiliates can’t ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, Independence Inn uses industry standard efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of your information, such as firewalls. However, “perfect security” does not exist on the Internet.

YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS

By using this site, you signify your agreement to the Independence Inn‘s and/or its affiliates’ sites following the posting changes to these terms will mean you accept those changes. This policy applies to nhindependenceinn.com and other Web sites owned by Independence Inn or its affiliates are specifically linked to this Privacy Policy.

Questions?

In case you change your mind or some Personal Information changes (such as your zip code or e-mail address), we will try to provide a way to correct, update or remove the Personal Information that you give us. We also give you the opportunity to control the communications we direct to you. We offer Customers the opportunity to “opt out” of having Personal Information shared with parties outside of Independence Inn and/or its affiliated companies. If a Customer wishes to update Personal Information or objects to any usage provided herein for any reason, he/she/they may e-mail the requested change to us using feedback or write to us at:
