If you upload images to our website (e.g., during booking or profile creation), please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS), as other visitors may download and extract location information from such images.

Cookies

When you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you don’t have to fill in your details again next time. These cookies last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie does not contain personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.

When you log in, we create cookies to save your login details and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, screen options cookies for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. When you log out, login cookies are deleted.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles or pages on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, maps, images, etc.). Embedded content behaves exactly as if you visited the original website.

These external sites may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with their content, especially if you are logged into those websites (like YouTube, Facebook, or Google Maps).

We may also share limited data with service providers (like payment gateways or travel partners) only as needed to complete your booking or inquiry.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment or booking request, the data and its metadata are kept indefinitely to help us recognize and respond to future inquiries automatically.

For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profiles. All users can view, edit, or delete their data anytime (except the username).
Website administrators can also view and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account or left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data, including any data you provided.
You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold, except data we must keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments or inquiries may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Some data (like analytics or bookings) may be processed through third-party tools (e.g., Google Analytics, WhatsApp API, or travel systems) to improve our services.
