Newsletter through Google

The Google Reader Revenue Manager signup form loads only when you select “Load the Google form”. Loading connects your browser to Google, which receives technical request data and may use cookies. Reading guides does not require loading the form. Google features are also subject to https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://news.google.com/swg/legaldocs/tos/swgtos.html.

Loading the form does not subscribe you: signup requires newsletter consent and sharing your email through Google or entering it manually. We do not request your name. Google collects and provides signup addresses and information to the publisher; these data are not automatically synchronized with listmonk. Withdraw consent or request deletion at info@esperienzeguidate.it. Received data are used for the newsletter and to document your choice.

Sharing a guide

Share buttons are simple links and do not automatically load social network widgets or scripts. If you choose an external service, clicking opens that service and may pass it the guide’s URL and title, along with technical data needed for the connection. The chosen service’s terms and privacy policy then apply; if you are signed in, it may associate the activity with your account. Opening the link does not automatically publish the guide: you confirm sharing within the service.

Meta marketing: a separate choice

Only if you enable marketing in cookie preferences do we use Meta Pixel in your browser and Conversions API from our server to measure campaigns and improve ad relevance on Facebook and Instagram. This is optional and separate from Google Analytics statistics. Before marketing consent, we do not load the Pixel or send events to Meta through these tools.

Events cover page and guide views, searches, opening Viator booking links, contact buttons and directions to places. A click to Viator indicates booking interest, not a confirmed purchase. Data includes the event type, date and time, source page, event identifier, browser information, IP address and, where available, _fbp and _fbc identifiers. URLs sent by our server exclude query parameters and fragments. For search events, we add the category and result count without including search terms in custom parameters.

Email buttons open your email service: they do not let the website learn or send your sender address to Meta. We do not reuse newsletter email addresses for Meta, and a free newsletter signup is not recorded as a paid subscription. Any email supplied in a conversion flow that involves this processing requires the relevant consent and is normalised and hashed with SHA-256 before transmission; hashing does not make the data anonymous.

We save your choice in your browser for 180 days, including a cookie that lets the server check marketing consent. With consent, _fbp and _fbc cookies can last up to 90 days. You can change your choices through “Cookie preferences” at the bottom of any page. Withdrawal stops subsequent transmissions and removes Meta cookies accessible to the website. Meta may match events to your account and process them under its own privacy policy; processing may involve infrastructure outside the European Economic Area.

Newsletter: only if you choose it

You can subscribe to receive Esperienze Guidate guides, news and suggestions by email, including affiliate links. Jack Taffarello, reachable at info@esperienzeguidate.it, processes your email address, chosen language and list, subscription and confirmation status, and information needed to document your consent. Subscribing is optional and is not required to read the guides; sending a report or a suggestion does not subscribe you to the newsletter.

The legal basis for sending newsletters is your consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)). The form’s checkbox is not preselected. After your request, you receive a confirmation email: newsletters are sent only after you confirm your subscription through the link provided.

We manage subscriptions using a dedicated, self-hosted listmonk installation and use the website’s email infrastructure for messages. Data is processed to manage subscriptions, confirmations, deliveries and unsubscribing. Individual tracking of newsletter opens and clicks is disabled.

You can withdraw your consent free of charge at any time through the unsubscribe link in the newsletters or by writing to info@esperienzeguidate.it. Withdrawal stops subsequent newsletters and does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

We retain data needed to manage the newsletter while your subscription is active. After you unsubscribe, we retain only the minimum information needed to document consent and withdrawal, respect your choice not to receive further newsletters, and meet any legal obligations or protect legal rights, for as long as these purposes require. You can exercise your data rights by writing to info@esperienzeguidate.it.

Browsing Esperienze Guidate

You can read the guides without an account. Experience searches run in your browser; search terms are not sent to an external search engine. The server processes technical data needed to deliver and protect the service, such as IP address, request date and browser information.

Analytics: your choice

Google Analytics 4 starts only if you enable statistics in cookie preferences, separately from Meta marketing. It helps us understand which pages are read, which channels bring visitors and which experience links are opened. Without consent we do not load the Analytics tag or send this data to Google. We do not use these statistics for personalised advertising.

Your choice is stored in your browser for 180 days. Change it through “Cookie preferences” at the bottom of any page. If you agree, Analytics uses cookies whose names start with _ga, configured to last 180 days, and processes technical and browsing information. Google provides the service; processing may involve infrastructure outside the European Economic Area. Withdrawing consent stops subsequent measurements and removes Analytics cookies accessible to this site.

Viator links and suggestions

Booking links lead to Viator, where the external service’s privacy policy and terms apply. Link parameters identify our affiliate partnership and the referring guide.

Embedded Viator suggestions load only when you press their button. Loading sends technical request data to Viator and may activate cookies managed by that service. You can read guides and use the booking link without loading these suggestions.

Emails, reports and suggestions

If you email info@esperienzeguidate.it, Jack Taffarello processes your email address, name and the information you choose to send to assess and reply to your request. Providing information is optional; a valid contact address is needed to receive a reply. Do not send unnecessary personal data. Contacting us does not subscribe you to promotional messages.

Reports are handled on the basis of our legitimate interest in maintaining accurate content and managing enquiries, while respecting your rights (GDPR Article 6(1)(f)). For collaboration requests, where applicable, processing needed to explore an agreement is based on steps taken at your request before entering a contract (Article 6(1)(b)). We keep messages for as long as needed to handle the request; any further retention is limited to what is necessary to meet legal obligations or establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

Contact buttons open your chosen email app or service and pass it the recipient and an editable draft. The website does not send the message automatically: you complete and send it through your email service, whose privacy policy applies. To exercise rights over data processed by us, write to info@esperienzeguidate.it.

Your rights

Where applicable, you can exercise your rights to access, correct, erase, restrict, object to processing or receive a portable copy of your personal data. You may also lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing carried out before withdrawal.
