HOTEL PRIVACY
POLICY

Last Updated: May 2026For Hotels OnlyData Controller GuideGlobal
Last Updated: May 2026  |  This policy is reviewed every 6 months and updated whenever we add new features, enter new markets, or when applicable laws change.

This Privacy Policy applies specifically to hotel operators, owners, managers, and staff who use the Travdigi Hotel Portal for guest check-in management, digital register compliance, and report generation.

This policy explains what data Travdigi collects about your hotel and staff, how guest data is processed on your behalf, your responsibilities as a hotel using our platform, and how we protect all data involved.

The Travdigi hotel portal is available globally — any hotel, hostel, resort, guesthouse, or Airbnb worldwide may register and use Travdigi. The traveler app is also available globally — guests from any country may use Travdigi to check in at your property.

Important legal note: Under applicable data protection laws worldwide — including the India DPDP Act 2023, EU GDPR, UK GDPR, US CCPA, Australia Privacy Act, Singapore PDPA, South Africa POPIA, Russia Federal Law 152-FZ, China PIPL, UAE PDPL, and all other applicable national and regional data protection frameworks — your hotel is the Data Controller for your guests' personal data. Travdigi is the Data Processor operating on your instructions. This means your hotel has legal responsibilities for how guest data is collected, used, and protected regardless of your jurisdiction.

All Travdigi legal documents are maintained in English only. English is the internationally recognized language for legal documents. For assistance please contact hello@Travdigi.com

Who This Policy Applies To

This policy applies to:

By registering your hotel on Travdigi and using our hotel portal, you agree to this policy and confirm that your hotel will use Travdigi in compliance with applicable laws in your jurisdiction.

Data Travdigi Collects About Your Hotel

When your hotel registers on Travdigi we collect:

Staff audit logging: Every action by every staff member in the Travdigi hotel portal is permanently logged. This includes QR scans, guest data views, and report generation. These logs are available to the hotel owner and to Travdigi for security and compliance purposes.
3

Your Responsibilities as Data Controller

Your hotel is the Data Controller for your guests' personal data. Travdigi processes this data on your behalf as Data Processor. This means:

Staff misuse warning: Hotel staff must not attempt to photograph, copy, screenshot, or share any guest data accessed through Travdigi. All access is logged and audited. Misuse of guest data is a violation of this agreement and may constitute a criminal offence under applicable data protection laws.
4

What Hotel Staff Can and Cannot See

Travdigi enforces strict role-based access control at both application and infrastructure level. This cannot be overridden.

Role What They Can See What They Cannot See
Hotel Staff / Employee Masked guest details only — first name, last initial, last 4 digits of document number, low-resolution watermarked face photo. Check-in and check-out status. Full documents, passport number, date of birth, full photo, verification video, guests of other hotels
Hotel Manager / Owner Full guest details for their hotel's guests only. Complete check-in history for their property. Compliance PDF generation. Guests of any other hotel. Traveler's history at other hotels. Verification video. Any Travdigi system data.
Data isolation: Your hotel can only see data for guests who checked in at your property. You cannot access guest records from any other hotel on Travdigi. A guest's full history across multiple hotels is visible only to the traveler themselves — not to any hotel, not to Travdigi administration.
5

Walk-In Guest Check-In

When checking in a guest without the Travdigi app, your staff collects the guest's name, mobile number, email address, and a photo of their government-issued ID.

Your hotel's responsibilities for walk-in check-ins:

Automatic guest notification: Travdigi automatically sends every walk-in guest a confirmation email with their check-in details and an unsubscribe option. If the guest unsubscribes, no further emails will be sent to them from Travdigi. The check-in record is maintained regardless — it fulfills a legal compliance obligation not dependent on the guest's consent or acknowledgment. This satisfies the notification requirement under applicable data protection laws. Your hotel does not need to send a separate notification.
6

Compliance Reports and PDF Generation

Hotel owners and managers can generate compliance PDF reports for submission to Authority, immigration, or other legal authorities when formally required.

Report usage restriction: Compliance reports may only be used for lawful compliance purposes — submission to Authority, immigration, or other legal authorities when formally requested. Reports must not be used for any commercial, marketing, or other non-compliance purpose. Misuse is a violation of this agreement and applicable law.
PDF security: All Travdigi reports carry a unique Travdigi watermark and generation timestamp on every page. Any tampering is immediately identifiable. Each report includes an audit reference number verifiable by authorities in Travdigi's system.
7

Authority Portal — What Hotels Should Know

Travdigi operates a separate dedicated portal for authorized law enforcement authorities. Hotels should be aware:

Replaces physical register: Using Travdigi fulfils your legal obligation to maintain a guest register accessible to authorities. You are not required to maintain a separate paper register for guests who check in through Travdigi. Travdigi digital records satisfy this legal requirement.
8

Hotel liability: Travdigi provides a secure and verified digital identity platform.
