In-person check-in, now easier and faster

ℹ How data is collected under Royal Decree 933/2021

According to the AEPD, to comply with Royal Decree 933/2021 (Annex I, sections A.3, A.4, B.3 and B.4), accommodation providers may use a form that collects only the required data. This form can be completed online or in person.

  • In-person data collection: simply check visually that the details match the identity document presented.
  • Online data collection without in-person assistance: you can use digital certificates, verification using payment method details, or security codes sent to the guest’s phone or email.
  • The operator may use other valid procedures, provided they comply with the GDPR.
  • NEVER request or store a copy of the identity document.

🔒 Comply with the LOPD and GDPR: protect your guests' data

Paper gets lost, deteriorates and is more likely to fall into the wrong hands. With a digital workflow such as iButlers you reduce risks and comply with the regulations: you obtain informed consent, explain how the data is used and guarantee its security and confidentiality.

  • Purpose limitation: use the data only for check-in and to meet legal obligations.
  • Data minimisation: collect only what is strictly necessary.
  • Accuracy: correct, up-to-date information.
  • Limited retention: keep them only for the period required by law.

Tip: replace paper forms with verified digital records. They are more secure, traceable and compliant with current regulations.
