Cookie Policy

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that websites can store on a user’s device. Similar technologies may also store or access information in the browser. Some cookies are necessary for a website to work and to remember privacy choices. Other cookies, including analytics or advertising cookies, require the user’s prior consent where required by applicable law.

This policy explains the technologies used on amalficoast-villas.com, their purposes and the controls available to visitors.

2. Website operator

3. Cookies and technologies used

The exact cookies visible in a browser may vary according to the functions used, browser settings and future changes to third-party services. This policy is updated when the website’s technologies materially change.

4. Consent choices

On the first visit, non-essential categories are disabled by default. Visitors can accept all categories, reject all non-essential categories, or choose individual categories. Closing the banner keeps non-essential categories denied.

• Necessary: required for website operation, security and storage of privacy choices; always active.
• Analytics: enables Google Analytics only after consent.
• Marketing: reserved for advertising measurement or personalisation if such services are used; disabled unless accepted.
• External content: allows optional embedded third-party services when present; disabled unless accepted.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing already carried out before withdrawal.

5. Google Analytics and Google Consent Mode

The website uses a consent-management script and Google Consent Mode. The default signals for analytics_storage, ad_storage, ad_user_data and ad_personalization are set to “denied”. Google Analytics is loaded only when the visitor accepts the Analytics category.

The current Analytics configuration disables Google signals and advertising-personalisation signals. Analytics data is used to understand aggregate website usage and improve the service. Google may process information as an independent provider under its own terms and privacy information.

6. Browser controls

Visitors can also delete or block cookies through their browser settings. Blocking necessary cookies may prevent certain website or form functions from working correctly. Browser controls do not replace the preference panel above, which is the recommended way to manage choices for this website.

7. Privacy rights

Depending on the applicable law and the circumstances, users may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, portability, or withdrawal of consent concerning personal data. Requests can be sent to the contact address below. Users may also lodge a complaint with the competent data-protection supervisory authority.

8. Changes to this policy

This Cookie Policy may be updated following changes to the website, third-party services or applicable requirements. The update date shown at the top identifies the current version. Where a material change affects existing consent choices, the website may ask visitors to choose again.
