1. APPLICATION. This subpage (“Subpage”) applies if you reside outside the United States and China and supplements our Privacy Policy. If you reside in the People’s Republic of China, which for purposes of this Subpage does not include Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan (“China”), visit our “Privacy Supplement for China Users” page instead for important information that applies to you.

Please read this Subpage carefully. If you have any questions, you can contact us at the details below. It contains important information we are required by the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) to disclose, including (i) the controller(s) of your personal information, (ii) legal bases, (iii) your legal rights, (iv) safeguards we rely on for transferring your personal information outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”), (v) your rights, and (vi) the contact details of the controller and Data Protection Officer.

1.1 Processing Based on a Legitimate Interest. If Airbnb Ireland or Airbnb Global Services Limited is the Controller or Airbnb Payments Luxembourg SA or Airbnb Payments UK is the Payments Controller or Airbnb Ireland Insurance Services Limited is the Reservation Insurance Controller for processing performed by Airbnb based on a legitimate interest, you can request that Airbnb does not process your personal information by providing reasons specific to your circumstances. If you object to such processing, Airbnb will review your objection and will no longer process your personal information for these purposes unless we have compelling legitimate grounds for such processing, or otherwise where such processing is required for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims. We will let you know the outcome of our review. You may exercise your rights to object to such processing by sending us an email.

7. YOUR RIGHTS. You benefit from rights pursuant to applicable law. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases. We may ask you to verify your identity and request before taking further action on your request. See here for information on data subject rights requests and how to submit a request.

7.1 Access and Portability. You have the right to request certain copies of your personal information held by us. In certain instances, you also have the right to request copies of personal information that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and/or request us to transmit this information to another service provider (where technically feasible).

7.3 Erasure. We generally retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for the performance of the contract between you and us, to comply with our legal obligations, and as permitted by applicable law. You have the right to ask us to delete your personal information, subject to certain limitations and restrictions. Please note that if you request the erasure of your personal information:

• 7.3.1 Legitimate Business Interests. We may retain personal information as necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as prevention of money laundering, fraud detection and prevention, and enhancing safety. For example, if we suspend an Airbnb account for fraud or safety reasons, we may retain information from that Airbnb account to prevent that Member from opening a new Airbnb account in the future.
• 7.3.2 Legal, Tax, Reporting, and Auditing Obligations. We may retain and use your personal information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal, tax, reporting, and auditing obligations.
• 7.3.3 Shared Information. Information you have shared with others, such as Reviews and forum postings, may continue to be publicly visible on Airbnb, even after your Airbnb account is cancelled.

7.4 Withdrawing Consent. If we are processing your personal information based on your consent you can withdraw your consent at any time by changing your account settings or by sending a communication to Airbnb specifying which consent you are withdrawing. Please note that the withdrawal of your consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing activities based on such consent before its withdrawal.

You have the right to limit the ways in which we use your personal information, in particular where (i) you contest the accuracy of your personal information, (ii) the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of your personal information, (iii) we no longer need your personal information for the purposes of the processing, but you require the personal information for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims, or (iv) you have objected to the processing pursuant to Section 5.6 (below) and pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of Airbnb override your own.

7.6 Objection to Processing. You have the right to object to the processing of your personal information based on grounds specific to your situation if such processing is for direct marketing or is for a purpose based on a legitimate interest or public interest. If you object to processing based on legitimate or public interests, we will no longer process your personal information for these purposes unless we have compelling legitimate grounds for such processing or where the processing is otherwise required for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.

8. RETENTION. We retain personal information for as long as needed or as permitted in light of the purpose(s) for which it was obtained and consistent with applicable law. The criteria used to determine our retention periods include:

• the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you, whether you are a Guest or a Host, and provide Airbnb to you (for example, for as long as you have an account with us or keep using Airbnb),
• whether there is a legal obligation to which we are subject (for example, certain laws, such as anti-money laundering requirements) require us to keep records of your transactions for a certain period of time before we can delete them); and/or
• whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position or to protect the safety of individuals (such as in regard to applicable statutes of limitations, litigation, or regulatory investigations).

9. OPERATING GLOBALLY. 

9.1 International Transfers. To facilitate our global operations, Airbnb and Airbnb Payments may transfer, store, and process your information within our family of companies, partners, and service providers based in Europe, Asia Pacific and North and South America. Laws in these countries may differ from the laws applicable to your country of residence. In certain circumstances, courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies, or security authorities in these other countries may be entitled to access your personal information. Some of these countries are subject to a European Commission adequacy decision, such as Japan, New Zealand, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Israel. For other countries, measures have been taken pursuant to applicable data protection law, such as standard contractual clauses within Airbnb or with the relevant third party to protect this personal data.

9.2 Other Means to Ensure an Adequate Level of Data Protection. If Airbnb Ireland is the Controller and your information is shared with corporate affiliates or third-party service providers outside the EEA, we have (prior to sharing your information with such corporate affiliates or third-party service providers) established the necessary means to ensure an adequate level of data protection. This may be an adequacy decision of the European Commission confirming an adequate level of data protection in the respective non-EEA country or an agreement on the basis of the EU Model Clauses (a set of clauses issued by the European Commission). We will provide further information on the means to ensure an adequate level of data protection, such as a copy of the EU Model Clauses, on request.
