Your privacy matters to us. Red Chamber Suites ("we," "us," or "our") operates redchambersuites.com and provides adults-only couples retreat accommodations at locations in Killeen, Texas and Tucson, Arizona. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have — in plain language, without legal jargon.
01

- IP address — collected automatically when you access our website
- Cookies and tracking technologies — see Section 5 for full details on how we use cookies and Google Analytics
We do not collect or store your payment information. All credit card and payment processing is handled exclusively by Stripe, Inc. When you complete a booking, your payment data is transmitted directly to Stripe's secure servers and is never stored on our systems.
