COVID-19 NOTICE
In response to the global coronavirus pandemic and to protect against the risks of other communicable illness, all guests may be required to undergo health screenings and we will collect additional information recommended by public health authorities or other government agencies or to otherwise demonstrate our guests’ ongoing health and fitness to travel, including:
We collect and use this information because:
Contact Tracing through OceanOrbit™ Contract Tracing System. To help mitigate and manage the potential spread of COVID-19 or other global pandemic illnesses, we use wearable device technology to identify individuals who may have been exposed to COVID-19 and to rapidly detect potential secondary cases that may arise after transmission from an infected individual. The OceanOrbit™ device is a wearable portable electronic device that collects data as guests and crew interact with one another in public and in private areas by broadcasting and recording the presence and proximity of other OceanOrbit™ devices. The OceanOrbit™ system collects time stamps, duration of contact and frequency of contacts. The raw data is associated with the device ID number but will be correlated with guest or crew personal information in the event that contract tracing is called for. On MedallionClass™ ships, we may use on board contact data collected in connection with the Medallion®, rather than the OceanOrbit™ system, which will be linked to your personal information in the same manner as all other OCEAN® data. As part of our contract tracing efforts, we take reasonable precautions to respect our Guests’ privacy and confidentiality by communicating contact exposure information in a manner that is not personally identifiable. However, information about you may be disclosed in a manner that could allow the recipient to determine your identity. For example, if we determine that it is necessary to disclose to a guest that she was in contact with an individual who tested positive for COVID-19 for a period of 1-2 hours on a particular date, that guest may be able to ascertain the likely identity of the unnamed individual based on her personal experience.
We may disclose your personal information, contacts and health information with third parties or individuals to attend to your medical and safety needs and those of our guests and crew; to comply with legal and regulatory requirements; to facilitate public health response initiaves; to conduct contract tracing of individuals who are exposed to or test positive for COVID-19 or other communicable illness while staying with us; or if we reasonably believe that such disclosure is necessary to inform your health care or to protect the personal safety or health of our guests, crew, or other individuals. For example, we may disclose personal identifiers and health or medical information to our personnel and contractors, port agents and authorities, government officials, health agencies or any other individual or institution as reasonably needed to support public health initiatives, comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, attend to your medical and safety needs, facilitate investigations and remedies, track and mitigate risks of communicable illness including COVID-19, and to protect the rights, health and safety of our guests, crew, and others.
CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

Minors. We do not sell or, for the purposes of targeted advertising, share the personal information of consumers we know to be less than 16 years of age. If we wish to do so in the future, we will first seek affirmative authorization from either the minor who is between 13 and 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a minor less than 13 years of age.
If you are under the age of 18 and you want to remove your name or comments from our website or publicly displayed content, please contact us directly at dpo@carnival.com. We may not be able to modify or delete your information in all circumstances.

For security purposes, we may need to verify your identity and confirm directly with you that you have provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request, and it may take additional time to fulfil agent-submitted requests.

The financial incentives we offer to consumers are reasonable related to the value of the consumer’s data to our business, based on our reasonable but sole determination. We estimate the value of consumers’ personal information by considering the expense incurred by the business related to the collection, storage and retention of consumers’ personal information in the context of the financial incentive program and the expenses related to the provision of the financial incentive.
The terms applicable to each program and other offering are provided at the time an eligible individual is offered an opportunity to participate.

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION
We care about the security of your information and employ physical, administrative, and technological safeguards designed to preserve the integrity and security of all information collected through our Service.

In the event that any information under our control is compromised as a result of a breach of security, we will take steps to investigate the situation and, where appropriate, notify those individuals whose information may have been compromised and take other steps in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
While we take steps to protect your personal information and keep it secure, you also play a role in protecting your information. You can help to maintain the security of your online and mobile transactions by not sharing your reservation number, username, or password with anyone.

We will only store your personal information for as long as necessary to achieve the purpose of collection as set out in this Privacy Notice in accordance with our data retention policies, unless a longer retention period is required by applicable law. If we are required by applicable law to store your personal information beyond this period (e.g., for tax and commercial law reasons), we will delete the personal information after the end of this storage period.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use and disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process the personal information, and the applicable legal requirements. After the expiry of the aforementioned retention periods, we will delete or anonymize your personal information.
