Other Information We Collect
Some information is collected automatically every time you visit THELasVegas.com (e.g., cookies and computer information). In addition, information may be collected from other independent, third-party sources.

Cookies And Other Web Technologies
When you visit THELasVegas.com we may collect information about your computer and assign you a "cookie" (a small, unique identifier text file). You do not provide this information—it is collected automatically as a means of supporting your visit to our site. This cookie does not contain any Personal Information. You can always choose to not receive a cookie file by enabling your Web browser to refuse cookies or prompt you before accepting a cookie. Be advised that, by refusing to accept a cookie, you will not be able to access many travel services and planning tools offered by THELasVegas.com.

When you access the My Account areas of the THELasVegas.com Web site, reserve or purchase travel, or use selected travel planning tools, THELasVegas.com requires you to sign in as a member, using your Member ID and password. Once you sign in as an THElasvegas.com member, we record the Member ID and the name on the member account in the cookie file on your computer. We may also record your password in this cookie file if you checked the box entitled "Save this password for automatic sign-in." Your Member ID, password, and the name on your member account is stored in the cookie file as encrypted data, so no one can view the information it contains by obtaining unauthorized access to your computer. Permanent cookie files remain on your computer's hard drive until you manually delete the file.

A cookie file may also be placed on your hard drive by THELasVegas.com third-party advertising companies. These companies may use aggregated statistics about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements about travel-related goods and services that you may be interested in. The information they collect does not include your Personal Information.

The third-party advertising companies may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of ads. This is primarily accomplished through the use of a Web beacon (a single-pixel GIF), which is placed on our site to collect anonymous information. They may use this anonymous information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. No Personal Information is collected during this process. The information is anonymous and does not link online actions to an identifiable person

Computer Information
THElasvegas.com collects certain technical information from your computer each time you request a page during a visit to THELasVegas.com. This information is collected from your computer's Web browser to enhance your experience on our site and may include your IP address, operating system, Web browser software (e.g., Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer), screen resolution, and referrer Web site.

Other Sources
To improve services and enhance personalization, we may periodically obtain information about you from other independent third-party sources and add it to our account information. Additionally, authorized THELasVegas.com personnel may update your profile to accurately reflect any new profile information included in communications received from you.

Passport Sign-In
THELasVegas.com may allow customers to use the Microsoft® Passport service as an optional way to sign in to their accounts. When you sign in to THELasVegas.com using Passport, you will be asked to provide your e-mail address and password to sign you in. The Passport service then assigns you a personal identification number and sends it to your computer in the form of a small text file, called a "cookie." This cookie allows you to access many other Passport-participating Web sites without having to sign in to each Web site.

To learn more about the Passport service and how Passport uses and protects your personal information, please read the Passport privacy statement.

Service Providers
To provide and process the services you request, THELasVegas.com shares your Personal Information with our authorized service providers that perform certain services or functions on our behalf.

Like any other travel agent, this information must be shared with our travel suppliers to confirm your reservation and travel preferences. Although THELasVegas.com offers travel products from hotel, airline, cruise, rental car, and other travel suppliers that are reputable companies, we have not placed limitations on these suppliers from using or disclosing your information without your permission. Therefore, we encourage you to review the information privacy practices of any travel suppliers whose products you purchase on THELasVegas.com.
