Cookie Policy
Published on 31/01/2025
Dear user, this document describes the types, purposes and persistence times of cookies used and operating on the website https://www.hotelsteindl.it (hereinafter "Portal" or "Site"), as well as allow you to select your preferences regarding their use
Definition, characteristics and regulatory application
Cookies are small text files that websites visited by the user send and store on their computer or mobile device, to be then retransmitted to the same websites on subsequent visits. Precisely because of cookies, a website remembers the actions and preferences of the user (such as, for example, login data, the chosen language, font sizes, etc.) so that such parameters do not have to be set at each new visit. Cookies, therefore, are used to perform computer authentication, session monitoring and storage of information regarding the activities of users accessing a website and can also contain a unique identification code that allows you to keep track of the user's navigation within the site itself for statistical or advertising purposes.
Some operations or functionality of the Portal could not be performed or guaranteed without the use of cookies, which in some cases are therefore technically necessary for the functioning of the Website itself.
Depending on their characteristics and functions, cookies can remain saved on the user's computer for different periods of time: we therefore have so-called session cookies, which are automatically deleted when the browser is closed, and so-called persistent cookies, which remain on the user's device until a predetermined expiration date, or until possible manual deletion.
Based on applicable regulations, express user consent is not always required to use cookies. In particular, so-called "technical cookies" usually do not require such consent, that is, those used solely to ensure the correct functioning of the Website, or to provide a service explicitly requested by the User.
Conversely, in order to be able to use cookies that are not strictly necessary for the correct functioning of the Portal, but are instead functional to the collection of statistical data, or aimed at creating profiles relating to the visitor, in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the same in the course of browsing the Internet, user consent is usually required, according to applicable regulations.
Types of cookies
Below are listed for completeness the main types of cookies that exist:
- Technical cookies: strictly necessary for the operation of the site or to allow you to enjoy the requested content and services;
- Analytics cookies: are instead those intended to provide the site manager with purely statistical data such as, for example, the total number of visitors to the site and each of its pages for each particular time band. they can be assimilated to technical cookies if used for site optimization purposes directly by the site owner. If, instead, the processing of such statistical analyses is entrusted to third parties, user data must be previously minimized and cannot be combined with other processing nor transmitted to further third parties.
- Functionality cookies: those used to activate specific Site functions and a series of selected criteria (for example, the language) in order to improve the service provided;
- Profiling cookies: those used to profile the user based on their behavior on the site. They are generally leveraged in order to send the user advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed in the course of browsing the internet
- Social network cookies: these are cookies that allow the user to share the Site's content on social networks, or to activate the "Like" or "Follow" functions of social networks. These features allow Social Networks to identify their users and collect information even while browsing other sites.
Source of origin of cookies
Cookies can also be distinguished based on their source of origin. We will therefore have:
- First party (or proprietary) cookies: are created and used only by the web server of the Website and are not transferable to third parties. This type of cookie is generally used to personalize the browsing experience, automatically recognizing a User who has already visited the Website, not being readable on a domain different from the one in which they were created.
- Third party cookies: are cookies created by domains other than the one of the Website being visited by the User. Third-party cookies are readable both on the domain they were created on and on any other site able to read the code of the server that created them. Third parties that set cookies on the Site may act as autonomous data controllers, in pursuit of their own purposes, or may act as suppliers of the Website owner, as data processors.

Cookie settings
Selection and deselection: with the exception of cookies strictly necessary for the functioning of the Website and for the provision of requested services, the User will be able to prevent the installation of third-party cookies on the Website, blocking one or more suppliers operating on the Portal, through the cookie preference selection tool (accessible at the following link) Regarding third-party tracking tools operating as autonomous data controllers, users can manage preferences and revoke consent by visiting the related opt-out link (if available), using the tools described in the third party's privacy policy or contacting them directly. The choices made regarding the Portal's cookies will in turn be recorded in a specific cookie. This cookie could, however, in some circumstances not work correctly: in such cases, the Owner suggests deleting unwanted cookies and preventing their use through the functions of your browser.
Managing cookies through the browser: it is also possible to remove existing cookies and block the installation of new cookies through browser settings. If users wish to decide from time to time whether or not to accept cookies, they can also configure their browser to generate a warning every time a cookie is saved. The most widespread browsers offer the ability to block exclusively third-party cookies, accepting only those of the Site. For more information on how to set cookie preferences through your browser, you can consult the relevant instructions:
Finally, it should be remembered that by disabling or deleting technical and/or functional cookies the Portal may become inaccessible or some services or certain Portal functions may become unavailable or not work correctly and it may be necessary to modify or manually enter some information or preferences at each visit.
