What they are
Cookies are small text files that a website saves in your browser. Similar tools are the browser’s local storage (localStorage) and session storage (sessionStorage). The rules are those of Article 122 of the Codice privacy (the Italian Personal Data Protection Code) and of the Guidelines of 10 June 2021 issued by the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali (the Italian Data Protection Authority): technical tools do not require consent, all the others do.
Technical tools, always active
They are needed to make the site work or to provide a service you ask for, such as remembering the language you chose: that is why they do not require consent. They are first-party, meaning that only this site reads them, and they are not used to profile you.
| Name | Type | What it does | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
ha_consent | Technical cookie | Remembers your cookie choice: the date, version and services accepted. If your browser does not accept cookies, the choice is kept in its local storage. | 6 months |
ha-lang | Local storage (localStorage) | Remembers the language you chose, using the flags or the language suggestion, and uses it on your next visits. | Until you change language or clear the site’s data |
ha-langbar | Session storage (sessionStorage) | If you close the language suggestion, this stops it from being shown to you again during the same visit. | Until you close the tab |
ha-pianifica-v1 | Local storage (localStorage) | Keeps the answers and the itinerary you create with ‘Plan your holiday’ on your device, so you can find them again. | 120 days, or until you press ‘Start again’ |
ha-assistente-v1 | Session storage (sessionStorage) | Keeps your conversation with the assistant as you move from one page to another. | Until you close the tab |
ha-meteo-v1 | Session storage (sessionStorage) | Keeps the latest sea and weather data for 30 minutes, so that it does not have to be requested again on every page. | Until you close the tab |
Vercel security cookie | Technical cookie from the hosting provider | Only if our hosting provider’s anti-abuse system asks the browser for a check: it remembers that the check has been passed. | 1 hour |
Services that are only switched on with your consent
These are third-party services: they only load after you have accepted them, and their providers use them in accordance with their own privacy policies.
Maps
They show Google’s interactive map with the hotel’s location. If you switch them on, Google receives your IP address and may use its own cookies, including for its own purposes.
Without consent, you can still open the map once with the ‘Load the map’ button, or in Google Maps.
| Service | Provider | Purpose | Cookies | Privacy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Google Maps | Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland | Showing the interactive map on the Home, Contact and Caorle pages | Google cookies on the google.com domain (for example NID, AEC, SOCS), with durations set by Google | Privacy policy (opens in a new tab) |
How to choose and change your mind
On your first visit, a banner lets you accept, reject or choose individual services; if you close it with the X, only the technical tools stay active. We do not treat scrolling the page or continuing to browse as consent.
We remember your choice for 6 months, then ask you again; before then, only if the services used by the site change. You can change it at any time:
You can also delete cookies and site data in your browser settings: Chrome (opens in a new tab), Firefox (opens in a new tab), Safari (opens in a new tab), Edge (opens in a new tab).
Third-party sites
The online booking system (SGS Hospitality), WhatsApp, Facebook and Google Maps opened in a new tab are third-party sites: when you open them, they use their own cookies, in accordance with their own privacy policies.
