we need to tell Hilton they must change policy (none / 0) (#5)
by Anonymous User on Thu Jun 24, 2004 at 10:48:51 PM PDT

Here is the note I sent to Hilton Hotels about their totally absurd privacy policy. You may copy or modify and reuse it as you see fit. I have now carefully read the privacy notice provided on your site at this address:http://www.hilton.com/en/hi/info/privacy_security.jhtml. This policy clearly states that you have the right to resell my credit card and personal information to anyone you choose. This is unacceptable. I have directed my company travel agent to NEVER place me in another Hilton owned hotel until I receive written notice that you have changed your policy to protect my private information. I hope you understand that I, and my friends, family, and business associates all consider identity fraud a serioius problem, and we are intelligent to recognize that your privacy statement is contrary to our interests, contrary to good business principles, and totally unacceptable. I have enjoyed the Hiltons and Embassy suites I have stayed at. I am sad that I will stay there no more.
