Current PVS Version
v0.1
draft
Guest expectations are evolving. Hotels that demonstrate transparency will build stronger guest confidence — and stronger businesses.
Travelers are asking sharper questions about what happens behind the check-in desk. The properties that answer with proof will win the next decade.
Independent verification stands out where stars and reviews no longer differentiate.
Transparency deepens loyalty and reduces friction across the guest journey.
Independent verification builds trust before guests even check in.
The values behind every verification — the ideas we’re refusing to compromise on.
Never funded, owned, or influenced by the properties we verify.
Methodology, criteria, and outcomes designed to be published openly.
One consistent framework across every category, region, and property.
Every criterion grounded in observable, verifiable practice — not claims.
The standard evolves as the industry, technology, and threats evolve.
We’re developing the first Privacy Verification Standard (PVS) for hospitality. Whether you’re a traveler, hotel owner, security professional, researcher, or hospitality expert — your perspective can help shape this framework.
