Airbnb in China is officially separate from the rest of Airbnb. 。

The company is spinning off its Chinese business into a separate company. All Airbnb users who have listings in China will have their information transferred to the new entity. 。

The short-term home rental company sent updated terms of service to its users Monday night sharing the changes.。

Airbnb's new structure will take effect Dec. 7. The changes won't apply to listings in Hong Kong, Macau or Taiwan.  。

Users will be notified about further transfer of their personal information after Dec. 7.。

The change in structure relates to regulations surrounding foreign businesses in China. 。

"Like hotels and other businesses operating in China, Airbnb China has to comply with local laws and regulations, including privacy and information disclosure laws, and may be required by Chinese government agencies to disclose information held by it, such as host, guest, and listing information relating to stays in China," Airbnb wrote in its email to users.。
