Cookie policy

Version 5 · published 8 November 2026

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device; similar technologies (such as the browser's local storage) work in a similar way. This page explains which ones are used by ciaobellasicily.com, operated by Dario Vancardo – sole proprietorship, Via Costantino 13/E – 90147 Palermo (PA), Italy, VAT no. IT07160450826.

Technical cookies we use

The website only uses cookies and technical tools that are necessary for it to work, for example to:
- remember your language;
- manage the booking process and your return from the payment page;
- keep staff signed in to the reserved area;
- keep the website secure.

These tools do not require your consent (art. 122 of the Italian Privacy Code, Legislative Decree 196/2003, and the Italian Data Protection Authority's cookie guidelines of 10 June 2021).

Third-party cookies

Payments: when you proceed to payment you are redirected to Stripe's secure page, which may use its own technical and anti-fraud cookies (https://stripe.com/cookies-policy/legal).

Embedded videos: some pages may show videos hosted on YouTube, in privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com), or on Vimeo. These providers may set their own cookies or similar tools when the video is played (https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://vimeo.com/cookie_policy).

WhatsApp: if you use the link to contact us on WhatsApp you are taken to Meta's service, which applies its own privacy policy.

Consent management

The website does not use profiling or marketing cookies or third-party analytics tools, so no consent banner is shown. If such tools are introduced in the future, your prior consent will be requested and this page will be updated.

How to disable cookies

You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking technical cookies may prevent booking or payment from working properly.
