Cookie Notice
What cookies this site sets, why they exist, and how to control them.
Last revised: 2 September 2026
This policy covers Tavurina'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. Cookies explained
Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Site operators use them widely to keep platforms working efficiently, to remember navigational preferences, and to compile analytical reporting.
Cookies we set ourselves are described as first-party. Third-party cookies come from other providers and enable things like interactive maps, font rendering, and aggregate visitor statistics.
2. What we use cookies for
- Essential cookies
- These support essential operation, security checks, and navigation through our editorial pages.
- Performance and analytics cookies
- They tell us in aggregate which reviews and guides are read and for how long, informing how we structure future coverage.
- Cookies that remember your settings
- These retain preferences such as regional display settings, layout choices, and saved filters between sessions.
3. Detailed classification
| Category | Primary purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Essential session | Keeps your place in the site and preserves page layout. | Session |
| Analytics | Tracks reading time and interaction patterns in aggregate. | 12 months |
| Reader preferences | Stores interface configuration and destination filter settings. | 6 months |
4. Controlling cookies
Whether to accept cookies is entirely your decision. Browser settings give you control, and most browsers let you:
- Inspect stored cookies and remove them one at a time or per website.
- Block third-party tracking cookies entirely.
- Restrict cookies from specific domains, or request a prompt before any cookie is placed.
- Delete all cookies each time you close the browser.
Be aware that turning off essential cookies will restrict some interactive ranking tables and catalogue functions.
Opt-out and your choices
You have the right to control how your personal information is collected and used. Depending on your location and applicable laws, you may exercise the following opt-out choices:
- 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.
- Cookie controls
- You can manage or refuse cookies and tracking technologies through your browser settings, or through the cookie consent tools provided on this site.
- Marketing communications
- You can stop receiving promotional email or newsletters at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any message, or by contacting us directly.
- Consent withdrawal
- Consent given earlier can be withdrawn whenever you choose, without affecting the lawfulness of any processing that took place while the consent was in force.
Requests to exercise these rights, or to opt out, can be sent to [email protected] or submitted through our contact form.
5. Updates
This policy may be updated periodically as our operations, technology, or legal obligations change. Please revisit this page from time to time.
