This information (server log files) includes the type of web browser, the operating system used, the domain name of your Internet service provider, date and time of access, name and URL of the retrieved file, the end device used and similar. This is exclusively information which does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your person. Furthermore, the IP address of the requesting Internet-enabled device is collected.

This information is technically necessary in order to correctly deliver the content you have requested from websites and is mandatory when using the Internet. It is processed, in particular, for the following purposes:

  • ensuring trouble-free connection of the website,
  • ensuring trouble-free use of our website,
  • evaluating system security and stability.

The processing of your personal data is based on our legitimate interest from the aforementioned purposes for data collection. We do not use your data to draw conclusions about you personally. The recipients of the data are only the data controller and, if applicable, the order processor.

Anonymous information of this kind may be statistically evaluated by us in order to optimise our website and the technology upon which it is based.

The data is stored for a period of up to 7 days before being deleted automatically.

  1. Cookies

Like many other websites, we use so-called cookies. Cookies are small text files that are transferred from a website server to your hard drive. This automatically provides us with certain data, e.g. IP address, browser used, operating system and your connection to the Internet.

Cookies cannot be used to start programs or to transmit viruses to a computer. Based on the information contained in cookies, we can facilitate website navigation for you and ensure the correct display of our website.

We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some cookies remain on your end device until you delete them. They allow us to recognise your computer during your next visit.

Of course, you can also visit our website without cookies. Internet browsers are regularly set to accept cookies. In general, you can disable the use of cookies in the settings of your browser at any time. Please use the help functions of your Internet browser to find out how to change these settings. Please note that some features of our website may not work if you have disabled the use of cookies.

  1. Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (hereinafter referred to as: Google). Google Analytics uses cookies. Information created and collected by the cookie regarding your use of this website will generally be transmitted to and stored on a Google server in the USA. Please note that IP anonymisation is activated on this website resulting in your IP address being shortened by Google within the European Union or in other member states of the European Economic Area. In exceptional circumstances, the full IP address will be transmitted to and shortened on a Google server in the USA. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities and to provide the website operator with further services associated with the website and Internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser when using Google Analytics will not be combined with any other data from Google.

The purposes of data processing are to evaluate the use of the website and to compile reports on activities on the website. Other related services will then be provided based on the use of the website and the Internet. Processing is based on this legitimate interest of the website operator.

You can prevent the gathering of data (including your IP address) generated by the cookie and related use of this website being sent to and processed by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

  1. Use of Google AdWords

Our website uses Google Conversion Tracking. If you have clicked on an advert delivered by Google to access our website, a cookie is placed on your computer by Google AdWords. If a user clicks on an advert of Google, the cookie for Conversion Tracking will be placed. These cookies expire within 30 days and do not contain information that can identify the user personally. If this cookie has not yet expired when the user visits certain web pages of our website, Google and we will be able to tell that the user clicked on the advert and was transferred to this web page. Each Google AdWords customer has a different cookie. It is, therefore, impossible for Google AdWords customers to track cookies via the websites. We use the information collected by the conversion cookie to provide aggregate conversion statistics to AdWords customers who have opted-in to Conversion Tracking. Customers learn about the total number of users who have clicked on their advert and were forwarded to a conversion tracking tag page. However, the collected information does not enable us to identify a user personally.

You can permanently prevent the storage of the Google conversion cookie by setting your browser software accordingly. Google’s privacy policy on conversion tracking can be found here: https://services.google.com/sitestats/en.html.

  1. Use of Google Dynamic Remarketing

We use the features of Google Dynamic Remarketing with the cross-device features of Google AdWords.
This feature allows us to link the advertising audiences created with Google Dynamic Remarketing to the cross-device features of Google AdWords. In this way, interest-based, personalised advertising messages that have been customised for you based on your past usage and browsing behaviour on an end device may also be displayed on another end device you use.

If you have given the appropriate consent to Google, Google will link your web and app browsing history with your Google account for this purpose. This way, the same personalised advertising messages can appear on any end device you use to sign in to your Google account.

To support this feature, Google Analytics collects Google-authenticated IDs of users who are temporarily linked to our Google Analytics data to define and create audiences for cross-device advert promotion.

You can permanently opt out of cross-device remarketing by turning off personalised advertising in your Google account; to do so, follow this link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.
Further details and information can be found in the Google privacy policy at: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/.

We use Bing Universal Event Tracking (UET) from Microsoft Bing Ads. This is a service of Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052, USA ("Microsoft"). It allows us to track user activity on our website when users reach our website through adverts from Bing Ads. If you reach our website via a Bing Ads advert, a cookie will be placed. A Bing UET tag is integrated into our website. This is a code that is used to store certain data about the use of the website in connection with the cookie. Among others, this includes the time spent on the website, which areas of the website were accessed, and which adverts brought the user to the website. Information about your identity is not collected.

This information is transmitted to Microsoft servers in the USA and stored there for a maximum of 180 days.

Olivia-sea-cottage.eu does not provide, own or control any of the travel services and products that you can access through Olivia-sea-cottage.eu.com, such as flights, holiday homes, hotels or other types of accommodations, etc (the “Third Party Offers”). The Third Party Offers are owned, controlled or made available by third parties (the “Partners”) either directly (e.g. airline) or as an agent (e.g. online travel agency). The Partners are responsible for the Third Party Offers. The Partner’s terms and privacy policies apply to your booking so you must agree to, and understand those terms. Further, the terms of the actual Partner (vacation rental, hotel, airline, etc.) apply to your travel, so you must also agree to and understand those terms. Your interaction with any Partner accessed through Olivia-sea-cottage.euis at your own risk and Olivia-sea-cottage.eu does not have any responsibility should anything go wrong with your booking or during your travel.

The display on Olivia-sea-cottage.euof a Third Party Offer or Partner does not in any way imply, suggest, or constitute a recommendation by Olivia-sea-cottage.eu of that Third Party Offer or Partner, or any sponsorship or approval of Olivia-sea-cottage.eu by such Partner, or any affiliation between such Partner and Olivia-sea-cottage.eu.
Olivia-sea-cottage.eu hosts content, including prices, made available by or obtained from Partners. Olivia-sea-cottage.eu is in no way responsible for the accuracy, timeliness or completeness of such content. Since Olivia-sea-cottage.eu has no control over the Third Party Offers and does not verify the content uploaded by the Partners, it is not possible for us to guarantee the prices displayed on Olivia-sea-cottage.eu.com. Prices change constantly and additional charges (e.g. payment fees, services charges, checked-in luggage fees, local taxes and fees) may apply, so you should always check whether the price asked for a booking is the one you expected. Some Third Party Offers may also be sold in another currency than the one preset or chosen by you for the display of the search results. Our currency conversion is for information purposes only because actual rates may vary and your payment provider (e.g. your credit card company) may charge conversion fees and apply another date’s currency rate.

  1. Booking through Olivia-sea-cottage.eu

If you make a booking through Olivia-sea-cottage.eufor Third Party Offers, that booking is made with the Partner named on the booking page and Olivia-sea-cottage.euonly acts as a user interface. Accordingly Olivia-sea-cottage.eu has no responsibility for the booking or the Third Party Offer because Olivia-sea-cottage.eu has no involvement in creating the description of the Third Party Offer, in defining the price and any fees, and in providing the Third Party Offers that you book. If you have any issues or disputes around your booking and/or the Third Party Offer, you agree to address and resolve these with the Partner and not with us.
