11. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
Summary:
Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer's satisfaction by calling our customer service department at 1-888-227-6482. In the unlikely event that Carnival's customer service department is unable to resolve a complaint You may have to Your satisfaction (or if Carnival has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with You after attempting to do so informally), we each agree to resolve those disputes through binding arbitration or small claims court instead of in courts of general jurisdiction. The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this License, and will be administered by the AAA in Miami, Florida. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Any arbitration under this License will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted.
12.MISCELLANEOUS. The following provisions survive termination of this License:
12.1 Governing Law, Limitation on Actions. This site is controlled and operated by Carnival from its offices within the State of Florida, United States of America. Carnival makes no representation that materials in the site are appropriate or available for use in other locations. These terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. You agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to these terms shall be filed only in the state or federal courts located in Miami-Dade County and You hereby consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of litigating any such action
12.2 Severability. If any provision of this License is held to be invalid or unenforceable with respect to a party, the remainder of this License, or the application of such provision to persons other than those to whom it is held invalid or unenforceable shall not be affected and each remaining provision of this License shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
12.3 Waiver. Except as provided herein, the failure to exercise a right or require performance of an obligation under this License shall not affect a party’s ability to exercise such right or require such performance at any time thereafter nor shall the waiver of a breach constitute waiver of any subsequent breach.
12.4 Modification or Amendment.

8. Security Procedures to Protect Information
Data storage and transfer: Your information collected through our App may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which Carnival or our affiliates or service providers maintain facilities. If you are located in the European Union or other regions with laws governing data collection and use that may differ from U.S. law, please note that we may transfer information, including personal information, to a country and jurisdiction that does not have the same data protection laws as your jurisdiction, and you consent to the transfer of information to the U.S. or any other country in which Carnival or our parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, or service providers maintain facilities and the use and disclosure of information about you as described in this Privacy Notice.
Keeping your information safe: 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 App. However, no security system is impenetrable and we cannot guarantee the security of our systems 100%. 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 folio number, username, or password with anyone. Carnival cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us or from our App, and therefore you use our App at your own risk.
9. Links to Third Party Services
This Application may contain links to other sites such as our affiliates and third parties. This Privacy Notice only addresses Carnival's use and disclosure of your information collected on this site, if any. While we try to link only to sites that share our standards and respect for privacy, we are not responsible for the privacy practices of our affiliates or any other third parties or the content of linked sites, although we do encourage you to read the applicable privacy policies and terms and conditions of such parties or web sites.

11. For Customers in the EU
If you reside in the EU, you are entitled to the following rights in respect of personal information that we hold:
- • Right of Access. The right to obtain access to your personal information.
- • Right to Rectification: The right to obtain rectification of your personal information without undue delay where that personal information is inaccurate or incomplete.
- • Right to Erasure. The right to obtain the erasure of your personal information without undue delay in certain circumstances, such as where the personal information is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or processed.
- • Right to Restriction. The right to obtain the restriction of the processing undertaken by us on your personal information in certain circumstances, such as where the accuracy of the personal information is contested by you, for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of that personal information.

Where this is the case, we will inform you of specific details in response to your request. For further information on how to exercise those rights, you may contact our Data Protection Officer by sending an email to dpo@carnival.com.

12. Changes to this Privacy Notice
We will occasionally amend this Privacy Notice to reflect company and customer feedback and we reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Notice at any time. Continuing to use our App after we publish changes to this Privacy Notice means that you are consenting to the changes. The provisions contained in this Privacy Notice supersede all previous notices or policies regarding our privacy practices with respect to this App. We encourage you to check this Application frequently to see the current Privacy Notice to be informed of how Carnival is committed to protecting your information and providing you with improved content in this Application in order to enhance your mobile cruise planning experience. If we make material changes to this Privacy Notice we will post the revised Privacy Notice and the revised effective date on this site.
13. Children's Policy
We recognize the need to provide further privacy protections with respect to personal information we may collect from children on our sites and applications. Children under 13 ("Child” or "Children") may download the Application but cannot provide information, make purchases, or engage the chat function without the explicit authorization of a parent or legal guardian. Consistent with the requirements of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"), when we determine that the user of an application is age 12 or under, we collect only as much personal information as necessary to be able to provide the informational functions of the application for the Child passenger and notify the parent or guardian associated with the Child on the ticket contract. We require a parent or guardian to verify consent by credit card charge or other payment method (with a nominal charge involved) to authorize the Child to chat with others through the Application, make purchases, or provide additional personal information. Please contact us at dpo@carnival.com if you believe we have inadvertently collected personal information from a Child under 13 without necessary parental consent so that we can delete this information as soon as possible.
When a parent or guardian provides consent for a Child under 13 to use the Application, the following policies and practices apply:
How a Child's Personal Information is Collected. During the registration process, we may ask the Child's month and day of birth and folio number. During the sailing, we may collect and use facial recognition data, which will be discarded within one month after the sailing or earlier upon request. We strongly advise children never to provide any personal information in their usernames. If a parent or guardian provides consent for the Child to use the chat and purchase functions, we will also collect the information the Child provides in chat content as well as a record of purchase transactions.
How a Child's Personal Information is Used. We use the personal information collected to provide the functions of the Application, so that the Child can view the shipboard schedule, select activities. With the parent's consent, the Child may also make on-board purchases, and use the Chat function to communicate with Family members who have been approved by the parent and identified in "Contacts."
How Parents May Access and Control a Child's Information. At any time, parents can refuse to permit Carnival to collect further personal information from their Child in association with a particular account, and can request that we delete from our records the personal information we have collected in connection with that account. Please keep in mind that a request to delete records may lead to a termination of an account or other service.
Where a Child has created an account, we use two methods to allow parents to access, change, or delete the personally identifiable information that we have collected from their Children.
(1) Parents can request access to and delete their Child's personal information by logging on to the Child's account through the Child's Device. Parents will need their Child's username and password.
(2) Parents can contact Guest Services to request access to, change, or delete their Child's personal information by visiting the Guest Services desk on board. If you believe your child is participating in an activity that collects personal information and you or another parent/guardian have NOT given consent for, please feel free to contact us Guest Services.
