Cookie Statement | Vandolira

This policy covers Vandolira's use of cookies and related technologies across our resort reviews, destination guides, and hospitality catalogue: what they are, the purposes they serve, and your rights over their use.

1. About cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on the device you browse with. They are used throughout the web to keep platforms running smoothly, hold navigational preferences, and generate analytics.

Cookies set by Vandolira are first-party cookies. Those set by anyone else are third-party cookies, and they support features such as embedded maps, web typography, and aggregated visitor measurement.

2. Our purposes

Strictly necessary cookies: Needed to deliver basic platform functions, protect forms, and move between pages.
Performance and analytics cookies: They collect aggregated information about how readers use our reviews, rankings, and guides, which helps us improve pacing and presentation.
Functionality cookies: Preferences like currency display, layout, and destination filters are stored so you do not reset them each visit.

4. How to manage your cookies

You have an absolute right to accept or reject cookies. Preferences can be set through your browser, and most browsers allow you to:

See which cookies are held on your device and delete them selectively.
Prevent third-party tracking cookies from being set at all.
Deny cookies from particular sites, or configure a warning before each new cookie.
Clear all stored cookies when the browser window closes.

Please note that rejecting or disabling essential cookies may limit or degrade access to interactive ranking tables and catalogue features.

Your opt-out options

Control over the collection and use of your personal information rests with you. Where local law provides for it, the following choices apply:

Sharing and sale of your data: You may opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information with third parties where laws such as the CCPA/CPRA in California, or comparable legislation elsewhere, provide for it. While we do not sell personal information in the conventional sense, some data may be shared with trusted partners in order to provide or improve the service.
Cookies and tracking: Use your browser's settings, or the consent tool on this site, to manage or reject cookies and other tracking technologies.
Marketing communications: Opt out of promotional messages and newsletters using the unsubscribe link in any communication, or by writing to us.
Withdrawing consent: Any consent you have given may be withdrawn at any point. Doing so does not render unlawful the processing that occurred before withdrawal.

Write to [email protected], or use the contact form on this site, to exercise any right or lodge an opt-out request.

5. Changes to this policy

Vandolira may revise this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect operational, technological, or legal change. We encourage readers to check this page periodically.
