If you are unable or unwilling to provide acceptable proof of a Qualifying Personal Event (as determined in our sole and absolute discretion) we reserve the right to deny your refund request. By providing any proof, you represent and warrant that you are fully authorized and empowered to provide such proof and hereby waive, release, and indemnify Vail Resorts for any claims of any kind relating to or arising out of your provision of such proof.

VAIL RESORTS PRIVACY NOTICE

Vail Resorts Inc., through its subsidiaries, provides a variety of resort services around the world (together, “Vail Resorts”). We value you as a guest and know that you care how information about you is collected and used. This Privacy Notice (the “Privacy Notice” or “Notice”) informs you about what information we collect and how we use it. This Notice is part of the Terms of Use published on our Sites. Click here to review the Terms of Use.

This Notice applies to the Personal Information we collect when you visit any Vail Resorts website or use an online or mobile application, such as EpicMix®, Emma™, the Perisher Dashboard, or other Vail Resorts application - where the Notice is referenced (our “Sites”). The Notice also applies to the Personal Information we collect when you visit any of our resorts, retail locations, rental locations, lodging, events sponsored in whole or in part by Vail Resorts, or other service providers worldwide (our “Locations”). By interacting with Vail Resorts through our Sites or providing specific information at any of our Locations, you consent to the use of Personal Information that is collected or submitted as described in this Privacy Notice.

Personal Information We Collect

When we use the term “Personal Information” we mean information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a natural person or household, such as a real name, postal address, e-mail address, telephone number, payment information, pass or lift ticket ID number or identities, profile photographs and location information. When other information (such as consumer preferences, demographic information, or opinions about an identified individual or reasonably identifiable individual) is directly associated with Personal Information, we treat this other information as Personal Information. Information that is de-identified, aggregated, or anonymized will not be considered Personal Information. Publicly available information (made available from federal, state, or local government records) may be considered Personal Information, and may only be processed for the purpose for which it was published.

When visiting our Sites, interacting with us (e.g., over the phone, by email) or providing information at any of our Locations, we collect the following types of Personal Information:

• identification data (e.g., first name, last name, postal address, phone number, email address);
• payment details or methods and transaction information (e.g., when you purchase lift tickets, event tickets, or goods, or book accommodations online);
• location data (e.g., the location where you stay or ski, the location of an event at one of our Locations that you attend, location data sent by your device, the runs that you ski or ride, the ski lifts that you ride, a top level domain name such as .com, .gov., .au, .ca);
• connection data (e.g., IP address, connection speed, type of browser used and information communicated by your browser, mobile network information, data automatically communicated by your device);
• device information (e.g., device type, screen size, operating system);
• data regarding your use of our Sites (e.g., date and time of visits, viewing information, pages viewed, keystroke activity, time spent on pages, scroll activity, click/touch information, content you provide, such as through email or messages, and mouse movements);
• information relating to your preferences and activities (e.g., vertical distance by day; calories burned; time spent skiing or riding; individuals with whom you form groups for skiing or riding, as reflected in your use of our applications; frequency with which you use or visit various facilities, services, programs, or Locations; events attended);
• details of ski-related accidents and other incidents;
• an assessment of your skiing/riding ability; and
• photographs and video of you at our Locations or that you otherwise submit; and
• demographic information (e.g., household information, number of children, age ranges, gender).

In addition to the above, we may combine information you have provided to us on our Sites with information you have provided to us offline, including information you have provided to us at one of our Locations, and we may store this information together in your customer profile. For example, we may combine data automatically collected when you use your season ski pass, attend an event, rent equipment at one of our Locations, or otherwise visit one of our Locations, or data you provide to us when you stay at one of our hotels or resorts, with your customer profile. In addition, we may use your devices’ connection to WiFi, Bluetooth, or GPS in order to provide services specific to your use of our Sites or other accounts as described in this Privacy Notice. This enables us to provide the best experience possible when you visit our Locations.

If you provide us with Personal Information of other persons, for example information about the receiver of a gift, gift card, gift certificate or a referral, please provide their Personal Information to us only if you are allowed to do so pursuant to applicable data protection laws and only if the other person would agree to you providing Personal Information to us for the purposes the information is collected and processed according to our Privacy Notice.

Some personal information included in this section is considered “Sensitive Personal Information” or “Sensitive Data” under certain data privacy regulations. Where required by law, your explicit consent to collection, processing, or transferring of such Sensitive Personal Information will be obtained. Appropriate security and protection measures will be deployed that will be congruent with the nature and risks associated with the data and processing activities.

Sources of Personal Information

When providing Personal Information as described in this Notice, that Personal Information is primarily collected directly from you (e.g., when you fill out a form at one of our Locations or on one of our Sites) and you will know the precise information being collected by us. In certain circumstances, however, the information may be collected indirectly or from other sources, for example:

• when a third party provides information about you (e.g., if someone orders a gift, gift card, or gift certificate online and wants to send it directly to you, he/she must provide us with your name and address; if third parties, including travel agents or business partners with whom we have joint marketing or service providing arrangements, provide information about you);
• when your electronic communications devices, such as smartphones, tablets, or computers, automatically submit information;
• when technology implemented at our Locations provides us with information (e.g., when your ski pass is scanned at a chairlift);
• when we are provided information from other business partners;
• when you are at one of our Locations, and we take photographs or video of you; and
• when such information is available from public sources.

In certain limited circumstances, third-party service providers may collect information on our behalf, though such collection will always be within the context of the service provided. We may also automatically collect certain information as described in our Cookie Notice, but this is limited to the degree to which that information is considered Personal Information. In particular, we may collect personal and non-personal information through the following additional channels:

• our own cookies on our Sites;
• 3rd party cookies on our Sites;
• social media networks; and
• 3rd party software applications.

Links to Third-Party Websites

Our Sites contain direct links to sites offered by third parties (e.g., our strategic alliance partners’ sites, co-branded event sites, or websites belonging to community partners). Those third-party sites are not covered by this Privacy Notice.

Some of the sites may give you the option of sharing your thoughts, Personal Information, or skiing and snowboarding experiences automatically on their platforms. If you choose to share information with a third-party site such as Twitter or Facebook, or a third-party service such as Apple Health, the information you choose to share is not subject to this Privacy Notice. You should review the privacy policies of those sites or services to make an informed decision about whether to share your information. Further, you should review your account settings on those sites to ensure that you are comfortable sharing your information with the audience chosen in that account.

Vail Resorts Accounts

In addition to other purposes outlined in this Notice, Vail Resorts will use information collected through your My Epic and/or other Vail Resorts accounts, such as the Perisher Dashboard, to establish, maintain and manage your account. Vail Resorts may combine this information with your location information collected via Bluetooth or GPS, in order to provide some of the services via our Sites. Depending on the notification options you choose, we may also send you emails, push notifications, or text messages related to your account, such as a summary of your day when you ski or snowboard, or awards or special offers when certain milestones have been achieved. You may unsubscribe from receiving such messages by managing your account settings.

Your Vail Resorts accounts allow you to share certain information within the application or on social media or other third-party sites. In particular you can view or share:

• your name (or display name if preferred);
• your statistics on certain applications;
• badges earned, date of becoming a Vail Resorts skier/rider, date last active at Vail Resorts, goals and progress towards goals;
• you position on leaderboards;
• the number of days, streak (number of days you have skied/ridden in a row), lift rides (which may include each scan of your ski pass: location, date and time), and vertical distance you have skied or ridden; and
• photos, social media accounts connected to the application.

You can manage the content and information you share when using your account through the privacy settings you select. The settings allow three basic types of information sharing:

• Private: Your information is not visible to other application members or to the public. You will not be visible on leaderboards and your name/email address will not be searchable on these applications.
• Share within application: Other application members who have been accepted as friends will be able to see the above details about you that you have chosen to share with them.
• Share Socially: The above details will be shared via any social media accounts connected to the application. If you choose to link your application account to third party sites, such as Facebook, you can manage what information you want to share with each of these sites automatically, or you can choose what content to share manually. As described in this Notice, if you choose to share information with a third-party site, the information you share on that site is not subject to this Privacy Notice. You should review the privacy policies of those sites to make an informed decision about whether to share your information.

Use of Bluetooth and GPS

To provide digital lift ticket service allowing utilization of your phone as a lift ticket or Epic Pass, and/or to allow use of maps in MyEpic, we use information from devices that broadcast Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Global Positioning System (“GPS”) signals broadcast from your mobile device. For example:

• if you use your phone as your lift ticket or Epic Pass, the application will use Bluetooth to enable such functionality;
• MyEpic Time uses Wi-Fi and Bluetooth signals anonymously to calculate the line times at participating chair lifts; or
• if you use the MyEpic Maps functionality, your phone's GPS signal will be used to display your location on a map in order to provide you with the customized map functionality.

Unless necessary as a part of the services (e.g., using your phone as your lift ticket) we do not connect information broadcast from your device to link to or collect Personal Information about you. If you do not wish for your information to be included in things like the wait time calculation, you can turn off your device’s Wi-Fi and Bluetooth services, though be aware that may reduce the availability of other services. With regard to GPS, your current location is only used to update your location on MyEpic Maps and is not stored by MyEpic. If you do not wish to see your personal location on the map, you can turn off GPS location services on your device at any time.

Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect Personal Information on our Sites from children under the age of 13 without the prior consent of the child’s parent or guardian.

Children and Vail Resorts Applications

Children under age 13 may only open a Vail Resorts application account (such as an MyEpic or Perisher Dashboard account) with parental consent. After parental approval is received and verified, the child’s account will be created. Parents who approve the creation of a child account understand that we will collect the following information about the child: an email account, name, date of birth, gender, state, zip or postal code, country. We will maintain that information in the application account and combine it with information collected offline, such as the child’s chair lift rides at our resorts, attendance at events sponsored in whole or in part by Vail Resorts, information about the child’s ski school experience, pictures taken by Vail Resorts photographers, and race times. We will only collect information about your child for the purpose of providing the account services you have enabled and for providing account features and notifying you and your child of information related to the account. We will not use the information to market other products or services to your child and will not sell or share the information with others for those purposes.

Application profiles created for children under 13 have restricted privacy features and are only viewable by you, your child, and other family members linked to your account. The child’s information is not visible to other application members or to the general public, and is not visible on leaderboards or searchable on Vail Resorts applications such as MyEpic. In addition, children under age 13 are not able to link to third party sites, such as Facebook.

If you believe that a child under age 13 (or other age applicable in a different jurisdiction) has provided Personal Information to us without the consent of a parent or guardian, has created an account of any kind without the consent of a parent or guardian, or if you wish to delete your child's Vail Resorts application account or revoke consent, please notify us at DataPrivacy@vailresorts.com (or in Australia, by emailing privacy@perisher.com.au or on the telephone at 1300 655 822) as soon as possible so their data may be deleted.

Your Choices and Rights

If you agreed to receive communications from us, our Sites give you the option of not receiving future communications by sending an email to DataPrivacy@vailresorts.com (or if you are in Australia, by sending an email to response@mail.perisher.com.au) or by clicking on the link enabling you to unsubscribe displayed at the bottom on each of our communications. You can also exercise the above-mentioned option by visiting our Consumer Communication Preference Center.

If you have a snow.com or epicpass.com account, you can manage your information and privacy preferences by logging into your account at www.snow.com or www.epicpass.com.

If you have an MyEpic account, you can manage your information and privacy preferences by logging into your account at www.MyEpic.com (or in Australia, by logging into your account at www.epicaustraliapass.com.au).

Your Privacy Rights and Additional Disclosures

Depending on the state in which you reside, you may have certain privacy rights regarding your personal data. If you are a California resident, please see our “Notice to California Residents” section below. For other state residents, your privacy rights may include (if applicable):

• the right to confirm whether or not we are processing your personal data and to access such personal data;
• the right to obtain a copy of your personal data that we collected from and/or about you in a portable and, to the extent technically feasible, readily usable format that allows you to transmit the information to another controller without hindrance, where the processing is carried out by automated means;
• the right to delete personal data that we collected from and/or about you, subject to certain exceptions;
• the right to correct inaccurate personal data that we maintain about you, subject to certain exceptions;
• the right, if applicable, to opt out of the processing of your personal data for purposes of (1) targeted advertising; (2) the “sale” of your personal data (as that term is defined by applicable law); and (3) profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning you;
• if we are required by applicable law to obtain your consent to process sensitive personal data, the right to withdraw your consent; and
• the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for the exercise of your privacy rights.

You can exercise the above-mentioned rights by visiting our Consumer Privacy Rights Request Form, emailing DataPrivacy@vailresorts.com calling us by telephone at 1-866-684-5604 (in Australia, by emailing privacy@perisher.com.au or by telephone at 1300 655 822). If you submit a request to delete online, you may be asked to confirm separately that you want your Personal Information deleted.

Depending on how the applicable privacy law defines a “sale,” we may sell personal data to third parties in certain, limited circumstances. For instance, if you are a resident of Colorado or Connecticut, our use of cookies and tracking technologies constitutes a sale of personal data to third-party advertisers. We also use cookies and other tracking technologies to display advertisements about our products to you on nonaffiliated websites, applications, and online services. This is “targeted advertising” under applicable privacy laws. We do not use personal data for profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning individuals. For more information about our use of cookies and similar technology, please review our Cookie Notice.

Notice to California Residents

The California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CCPA”), requires that we provide California residents with a privacy policy that contains a comprehensive description of our online and offline practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, sale, sharing, and retention of personal information and of the rights of California residents regarding their personal information.

If you are a California resident and a current or former employee, job applicant, or independent contractor of ours, please see the applicable privacy notice for more information on our collection and use of your Personal Information in that capacity.

• performing services, including maintaining or servicing accounts, providing customer service, processing or fulfilling orders and transactions, verifying customer information, processing payments, providing financing, providing analytic services, providing storage, or providing similar services;
• providing advertising and marketing services, except for targeted advertising, to you provided that, for the purpose of advertising and marketing, our service providers and/or contractors shall not combine the Personal Information of opted-out consumers that the service provider or contractor receives from us, or on our behalf with Personal Information that the service provider or contractor receives from, or on behalf of, another person or persons or collects from its own interaction with you;

Sale, Sharing, and Disclosure of Personal Information

The CCPA defines “sale” as the transfer of Personal Information for monetary or other valuable consideration. However, Vail Resorts does not knowingly sell and will not sell the Personal Information of any guest.

For more detailed information about this type of sharing please review the above sections “Third-Party Advertisers” for details about the specific entities that we may share your data with.

The following table identifies the categories of Personal Information that we disclosed for a business purpose in the 12 months preceding the last update of this Notice:

We disclosed Personal Information for the business or commercial purposes described in detail in the “Disclosure of Your Personal Information” section above.

Retention of Personal Information

We retain your Personal Information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collect it, such as to provide you with the service you have requested, and for the purpose of satisfying any legal, accounting, contractual, or reporting requirements that apply to us.

Your Rights

If you are a California resident, you have the following rights with respect to your Personal Information:

• the right to know what Personal Information we have collected about you, including the categories of Personal Information, the categories of sources from which we collected personal Information, the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling or sharing Personal Information (if applicable), the categories of third parties to whom we disclose Personal Information (if applicable), and the specific pieces of Personal Information we collected about you;
• the right to delete Personal Information that we collected from you, subject to certain exceptions;
• the right to correct inaccurate Personal Information that we maintain about you;
• if we sell or share Personal Information, the right to opt out of the sale or sharing;
• if we use or disclose sensitive Personal Information for purposes other than those allowed by the CCPA and its regulations, the right to limit our use or disclosure; and
• the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by us for the exercise of privacy rights the CCPA confers.

How to Submit a Request to Know, Delete, and/or Correct

You can exercise the above-mentioned rights by visiting our Employee/Applicant Privacy Rights Request Form, emailing DataPrivacy@vailresorts.com calling us by telephone at 1-866-684-5604 (in Australia, by emailing privacy@perisher.com.au or by telephone at 1300 655 822). If you submit a request to delete online, you may be asked to confirm separately that you want your Personal Information deleted.

If you are submitting a request on behalf of a California resident, please submit the request through one of the designated methods discussed above. After submitting the request, we will require additional information to verify your authority to act on behalf of the California resident.

Our Process for Verifying a Request to Know, Delete, and/or Correct

We will comply with your request upon verification of your identity and, to the extent applicable, the identity of the California resident on whose behalf you are making such request.

If you maintain a password-protected account, we may verify your identity through existing authentication practices available through your account. Prior to disclosing or deleting the Personal Information, we will ask you to re-authenticate yourself with respect to that account.

If you do not maintain a password-protected account, or if you are an account-holder but we suspect fraudulent or malicious activity with your account, we will verify your identity either to a “reasonable degree of certainty” or a “reasonably high degree of certainty” depending on the sensitivity of the Personal Information and the risk of harm to you by unauthorized disclosure, deletion, or correction as applicable. To do so, we will ask you to verify data points based on information we have in our records concerning you.

Right to Opt Out of Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

If you are a California resident, you have the right to direct us to stop selling or sharing your Personal Information. However, Vail Resorts does not and will not sell the Personal Information of any guest, but we may share your Personal information in accordance with this Notice. You may submit a request to opt out of sharing by visiting Your Privacy Choices and/or via the opt-out mechanisms, the degree to which such sharing is performed via cookies and similar technologies managed by that cookie opt-out.

Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information

California residents have the right to limit our use or disclosure of sensitive Personal Information if we use it for purposes other than those allowed by the CCPA and its regulations. You may submit a request to limit our use of your sensitive Personal Information through our interactive webform available by clicking on this link: “Limit the Use of My Sensitive Personal Information.”

Notice of Financial Incentive

From time to time, you may have the opportunity to provide Personal Information in exchange for discounts and price differences. For example, we may provide discounts and price differences in exchange for you subscribing to a mailing list.

Signing up for discounts and price differences is optional. By providing your Personal Information during the discount sign-up process, you affirmatively opt in to receiving the financial incentive and to have your personal information processed as described. You have the right to withdraw from the financial incentive at any time. If you opt out of receiving a financial incentive, we will not reduce the value of any financial incentives you previously received from us. If you wish to withdraw from receiving the financial incentive, you may submit such a request at any time by emailing us at dataprivacy@vailresorts.com.

Erasure Law

If you are a California resident under the age of 18 and a registered user of the services, California Business & Professions Code § 22581 permits you to request and obtain removal of content or information posted on the services by you. If you wish to make a request, please contact us at dataprivacy@vailresorts.com. Please be aware that removal does not ensure complete or comprehensive removal of the content or information posted on the services by you and there may be legal reasons for denying your request.

Browser Settings and Universal Opt-Out

At this time, Vail Resorts’ websites are not able to recognize and or respond to certain browser preference signals or opt-out settings such as Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) or Do Not Track. GPC and “Do Not Track” are browser settings that notify websites of an individual’s privacy preferences. For example, “Do Not Track” is a preference you can set in your web browser to inform websites you visit that you do not wish to be tracked via certain technology like cookies and pixels. Such browser settings must be supported by the website you are visiting to be effective. Vail Resorts is not currently able to support such browser codes, so Vail Resorts will not automatically acknowledge and or respond to your particular settings when you access our websites. However, you may make a request to opt-out of or limit any processing activities as described herein or through the links available on our websites.

International Data Transfers

Vail Resorts’ headquarters are located in the United States. Through our affiliates, we operate Locations in the U.S., Canada, Australia and Switzerland. Your Personal Information may be transferred, stored or processed by Vail Resorts entities or third parties located in the United States or other locations around the world, in particular where our partner resorts are located, i.e. additional countries in Europe as well as Japan, as described in this Notice. Data protection standards in those countries may differ from the country where you reside.

For individuals in Australia, please note that your Personal Information may be transferred to our affiliates in the United States or Canada for the purposes described in this Notice. Vail Resorts affiliates will handle your Personal Information in a manner consistent with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), and may also be subject to other countries’ privacy and data protection laws that impose requirements similar to the APPs.

Notice Regarding European Law

Under certain European law, companies are required to have a legal basis for processing personal data. We process personal data as necessary to perform our contracts with you, including based on our Terms of Use, and the disclosures above. We further process personal data based on our legitimate interests or the interests of a third party, for compliance with a legal obligation, and to protect your interests or those of another person. While we make efforts to respond to all privacy inquiries from individuals, Vail Resorts does not actively solicit business from the European Economic Area; therefore, you may not have opportunity avail yourself of the rights provided under the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) or the laws of your particular country of residence. By providing your information, you unambiguously consent to transfer of your Personal Information and other information to the US and elsewhere for the purposes and uses described in this Notice. Further, you acknowledge that Vail Resorts may not be subject to the GDPR, and, therefore, you may be unable to claim the privacy rights provided in those laws. We also process personal data based on your consent in certain instances. Where personal data is processed based on consent, you may have the right to withdraw such consent at any time. Exemplary instances are detailed further in the disclosures above, including the disclosures regarding “How We Use Your Personal Information.” For processing based on public interest, you have a right to object to such processing, which we will assess. For additional information or to make a request, please contact dataprivacy@vailresorts.com or call 1-866-684-5604.

Data Security and Retention

Vail Resorts has implemented physical, technological, and organizational safeguards and security measures designed to protect against the loss, misuse, or unauthorized access or disclosure of your Personal Information under our control. We also take measures to protect the Personal Information we disclose to third parties, for example by entering into contractual agreements stipulating the confidentiality of the information and the purposes for which it is to be used. Please be aware though that, despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. You can help us by protecting and keeping your passwords safe at all times, and not using the same password for different applications or sites. You also can protect yourself and help us reduce the risk of fraud by promptly notifying us if you suspect that your credit card, pass product with resort charge, other resort-specific payment product, user name, or password is lost, stolen or used without permission.

We will retain your Personal Information for the length of time needed to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Notice and for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, contractual, or reporting requirements that apply to us. Personal Information that is no longer required for those purposes will be destroyed or made irreversibly anonymous.

Changes to the Notice

We may change this Notice from time to time, and will post the revised Notice on our Sites. The changes will only apply to Personal Information we collect after we have posted the revised Notice. If we make material changes to the way we collect, use or disclose Personal Information, we will notify you by means that are appropriate, including potentially posting a clear and prominent announcement on our Sites or alerting you through a direct communication. To the extent allowed by applicable law, your continued access to or use of Vail Resorts Sites or Locations following notice of material changes to this Notice shall constitute consent to any amendments and/or modifications. Where required by law we will provide separate notice or seek separate consent for changes to our Privacy Notice or practices.
