Information collection
When you browse our sites and have not registered

you browse anonymously. Personal information - such as your name,
address, phone number or E-mail address - is not collected as you
browse. American Express Business Travel nv/sa may, however, use
"cookies" to collect information about how our site is
used. Information, such as the server your computer is logged onto,
your browser type, and whether you responded to a American Express
Corporate Travel nv/sa banner ad or E-mail may be collected and
tracked in aggregate. This information is used for the purpose of
measuring response rates to banner ads and E-mail offers. [

Registration
for Online Products and Services.
In order to provide you with
a particular product or service online, we request that you voluntarily
supply us with personal information, including your E-mail address
and account number (if you are a American Express Business Travel
customer), for purposes such as correspondence, site registration,
making a purchase, or participating in online surveys and enabling
us to provide an online product or service to you in an efficient
manner.
If you are known to us as a registered user
of a American Express Business Travel online service, we may combine
information about your use of our websites and the online product
or service you utilize with certain other online and offline information
we have about you as a American Express Business Travel customer
and information you have provided to us as well as information available
from external sources, such as census bureau data, in order to customize
your online experience and present you with relevant online and
offline offers and updates. We may also use a "cookie"

Corporate Travel online service user when you re-enter the site.

Use
of Information
We may use information you have given us to,
for example, provide a service, ensure proper billing, measure consumer
interest in our various services and inform you about products and
services. If you provide us with your E-mail address, or have done
so in the past, or if we obtain you E-mail address from another
source, we may send you E-mail offers. These offers may be based
on information you provided in your initial transaction with us,
in surveys, from information that may indicate purchasing preferences
and lifestyle, as well as information available from external sources,
such as census bureau data. These E-mail offers come directly from
American Express Business Travel.
Please note that we do not provide your E-mail
address or any other personal and/or confidential data to our business
partners, suppliers, parent companies or affiliates. However, we
may send you offers on behalf of our business partners. Keep in
mind that if you take advantage of an offer from a American Express
Corporate Travel business partner and become their customer, they
may independently wish to send offers to you. In this case, you
will need to inform them separately if you wish to decline receiving
future offers from them.
Our goal is to deliver offers to people who
we believe will find them of value. Offers are developed and managed
under strict conditions designed to safeguard the security and privacy
of customer personal information. [ top ]
Declining
E-mail offers
American Express Business Travel provides customers
with an easy means to decline receiving E-mail offers. Although
some customers tell us they appreciate receiving notice of these
carefully designed opportunities, we recognize the importance of
providing you with choices. At any time, you may request to discontinue
receiving these offers from us by simply replying to the E-mail
and informing us of your preferences. All E-mail offers that you
receive from American Express Business Travel will inform you of
how to decline receiving further E-mail offers. [
