What data this website collects
The website has no forms other than the contact form and the request form, uses no profiling cookies and does not load external services such as maps, videos or third-party fonts. Visit statistics start only with your consent (see Cookies and visit statistics).
The server that hosts the website (Aruba) records technical data about each visit, such as IP address, date and time and the page requested, for the operation and security of the service.
The contact and request forms
If you use the contact form (Contact page), the website collects the data you enter: name, email, phone (if you provide it) and message. The request form (Availability page) also collects arrival and departure dates and the number of guests.
The data controller uses this data only to reply to your message or availability request. It is processed because you are the one asking for a reply and because you give your consent by ticking the box on the form: without consent the form is not sent.
Messages and requests reach the data controller by email and are also stored on the website’s server, so that they are not lost. They are not passed on to anyone else or used for advertising.
The data is kept for 12 months, and then deleted.
Cookies and visit statistics

Google Analytics stores the cookies _ga and _ga_ followed by a code, which last 12 months. The data controller does not share this data with Google for other purposes and does not use it for advertising. Google may also process it outside the European Union; for transfers to the United States it takes part in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
Without your consent Google Analytics is not loaded. You can change your choice at any time:
Links to other services
The buttons and links to Booking.com, WhatsApp, Instagram and Google Maps open services run by other companies, which process data according to their own privacy policies.

You can ask for access to, correction or erasure of your data, and withdraw the consent given through the forms or the cookie banner, by contacting the data controller at the details given above. You can also lodge a complaint with the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali (the Italian Data Protection Authority).
