Privacy policy

Last updated: 23 August 2026

This privacy policy explains how Motus Mountain View Hotels (“Motus”, “we”, “us”) handles personal data when you use our website, create a guest account, book a stay, enquire with us, or reserve a table.

This page describes Motus Mountain View Hotels’ policies for guests using our website and guest portal. It is provided for transparency and is not a substitute for independent legal advice. We may update it from time to time; the “Last updated” date reflects the latest revision.

1. Data fiduciary and contact

Motus Mountain View Hotels is the data fiduciary for personal data processed in connection with this website and related guest services.

For privacy requests or grievances, write to us at the email above with the subject line “Privacy request” and enough detail for us to verify and respond.

2. What we collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may process:

  • Account data: name, email address, and a hashed password.
  • Booking data: stay dates, room category, occupancy (adult and child counts), special requests, booking reference, and payment status.
  • Payment metadata: amounts, currency, and provider references (for example Razorpay order, payment or invoice identifiers). Card or UPI credentials are collected by the payment provider, not stored in full by Motus.
  • Contact enquiries: name, phone number, optional email, and message content.
  • Dining reservations: name, phone number, date, time and guest count.
  • Technical data needed to run the service: for example authentication tokens stored in your browser’s local storage when you sign in.
  • Communications we send you about bookings, payment reminders or enquiry replies (for example via our email provider).

3. Why we use your data

We use personal data to:

  • Create and manage guest accounts and authenticate you securely.
  • Process bookings, payments, invoices and cancellations.
  • Respond to contact forms, WhatsApp/phone enquiries and dining reservation requests.
  • Operate, secure and improve the website and guest portal.
  • Comply with legal obligations applicable to hotels in India (including guest registration where required).

4. Cookies and local storage

We use the Meta (Facebook) Pixel on the public marketing and booking pages to measure ad performance and website activity. Meta may set cookies or similar identifiers for this purpose.

Essential browser storage is used for signed-in sessions (access token and basic user profile in local storage) so the guest portal can function. You can clear this data by signing out or clearing site data in your browser.

5. Sharing and processors

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with trusted processors only as needed to run the service, including:

  • Payment processing (Razorpay) for online payments and invoices.
  • Advertising measurement (Meta Pixel) on the public website for campaign attribution.
  • Email delivery providers for transactional messages.
  • Hosting and infrastructure providers that store and serve the website and database.
  • Professional advisers or authorities where disclosure is required by law or necessary to protect Motus, our guests or the public.

6. Retention

We keep booking, payment and account records for as long as needed to fulfil the stay, handle refunds or disputes, and meet accounting or legal retention requirements. Enquiry and dining reservation records are kept while useful for follow-up and operations, then deleted or archived when no longer required.

You may ask us to delete account data where we are not required to retain it; some booking history may need to be retained for legitimate business or legal reasons.

7. Your rights

Subject to applicable Indian law (including the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, as it applies), you may request access to, correction of, or erasure of your personal data, and you may raise a grievance with us using the contact details above.

We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. If you have an account, you can also update basic profile details by contacting us.

8. Children

Guest accounts are intended for adults making bookings. Bookings may include child occupancy counts for room planning; we do not knowingly create online accounts for children. Parents or guardians should supervise any use of our site by minors.

9. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including hashed passwords and HTTPS for the website. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; please use a strong unique password for your Motus account.

10. Updates

We may update this privacy policy to reflect changes in our practices or the law. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes notice of the revised policy for future interactions.
