Who is responsible
Lounge Wheel is published by Lounge Wheel Media, Wilmington, United States. Questions about personal information go to hello@loungewheel.com with the subject "privacy". The site serves visitors in Canada and follows the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act and, for Quebec residents, the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector, overseen by the Commission d'accès à l'information.
The room request
When you sign the guest book we receive: your name, email, phone if you give it, number of guests, dates, room preference, reason for the trip, your notes, your consent, and the page you sent it from. Our server also sees your IP address and browser type, as every web server does. We use this to answer your request and, if you confirm a stay, to account for the commission. To check availability we pass the details needed for that (dates, guests, room, name) to the hotel's reservations or a booking partner. We do not sell personal information, and we do not use it for unrelated marketing.
We keep requests only as long as needed to answer them and to account for any confirmed stay. You can ask to see, correct or delete yours at any time.
Cookies and Google Tag Manager
The site sets no cookies of its own. It does keep one small entry in your browser's local storage, named lwh_cookie_choice, to remember whether you accepted or declined cookies; it expires after six months.
The publisher advertises this site on Google Ads and uses Google Tag Manager (container GTM-MFLWHBND) to measure whether visits lead to room requests. We use Google's Consent Mode: before you choose, all Google storage is set to "denied" (ad storage, ad user data, ad personalisation and analytics storage), and Google tags are not allowed to write cookies. The tag manager script itself loads a few seconds after the page, or at your first interaction, so the page stays fast. If you press Accept, Google tags may set advertising and analytics cookies and Google receives information about your visit, including that a request was sent. If you press Decline, nothing changes about how the site works. You can change your choice at any time with Manage cookies in the footer.
The Google map
On the front page the map is a drawing until you press the button; only then does your browser load Google Maps, which receives your IP address and may set cookies. On the getting-there page a Google map is embedded and loads when that part of the page comes into view. The "Open in Google Maps" and route links take you to Google, under Google's own privacy terms.
Hosting and delivery
The site is hosted on DigitalOcean (Toronto, Canada) and delivered through Cloudflare, which processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver pages and protect the site. Form submissions are processed on that server and forwarded to our desk.
Links to other sites
Links to Loto-Québec, Amerispa, government bodies and other sources open their sites under their own privacy policies.
Your rights
You may ask what personal information we hold about you, have it corrected, withdraw consent and ask for deletion. Quebec residents may also file a complaint with the Commission d'accès à l'information; residents elsewhere in Canada with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (priv.gc.ca).
Children
The site is not meant for children, and the casino it describes is for adults 18 and over.
