B. Cookies policy
In compliance with EU Directive 2009/136/CE, we would like to inform you that our website accepts the use of “cookies”, to determine how users reach our website and to track general usage patterns once a user is on our website. Cookies are messages that web servers pass to your web browser when you visit internet sites. Your browser stores each message in a small file, which will give us information about your last visit to our website. This information is collected and analyzed in the aggregate in order to improve the function, content,, overall appearance, and capability of our website. Most internet browsers accept the use of cookies automatically, but you can always choose not to accept a cookie by changing your computer settings to refuse cookies or to prompt you to accept each cookie, but doing so will limit the range of features available to you on the website.

i) Specifically, we use the following cookies:
a) Analytics cookies: We’re constantly improving our website to simplify the search and booking process. The most helpful information we get for this is from analytics cookies that anonymously define how users interact with and navigate our page.
b) Social media cookies: We may embed content from social media sites to share social widgets or personalize your experience based on the information you’ve previously shared with your social accounts.
c) Technical & Functional Cookies: We use these cookies to ensure the most secure and effective website possible. These cookies are necessary to provide the services you are requesting.
d) Functionality cookies: These are strictly necessary to provide the services requested by users on this website.

Google Analytics uses “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and facilitate an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookies regarding your use of this website (including your IP address) is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Our website uses social plugins (“plugins”) from the social networking site facebook.com, operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). The plugins can be identified by one of Facebook’s logos (a white “f” on a blue tile or a “messenger” icon). In case you access a webpage of our website using such a plugin, your browser will contact the Facebook server and load the visual presentation of the plugin as well as present it to you. During this exercise, the Facebook server receives information concerning your visit of the website of our internet presence as well as further data like your IP address.

When the plugin is loaded, Facebook transmits the content of the then visible plugin directly to your browser and integrates it into the page on our website. We therefore have no influence on the amount of data that Facebook is able to collect using these plugins. Information concerning the subject matter is made available by Facebook‘s data protection policy. If you are logged in to Facebook at the time, it can associate your visit to the page to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the ‘Like’ button or by posting a comment, the information you give is then sent directly to Facebook and saved there. If you do not have a Facebook account, it is still possible for Facebook to identify and store your IP address after you have clicked the Facebook note. If you have a Facebook account and do not want Facebook to collect data about you from our website and connect it to your member data saved on Facebook, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website.It is also possible to block Facebook social plugins by using add-ons for your browser.
