Cookies

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer’s hard drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

We currently operate an ‘implied consent’ policy, i.e. we assume you are happy with our use of cookies. If you are not happy, then you should either not use this site, or you should delete our cookies once you have visited the site, or you should browse the site using your browser’s anonymous usage setting (called ‘Incognito’ in Chrome, ‘InPrivate’ for Internet Explorer, ‘Private Browsing’ in Firefox and Safari etc.)

We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse data about webpage traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system.

Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.

You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

If you don’t want to receive cookies, you can modify your browser so that it notifies you when cookies are sent to it or you can refuse cookies altogether. You can also delete cookies that have already been set.

If you wish to restrict or block web browser cookies which are set on your device then you can do this through your browser settings; the Help function within your browser should tell you how. Alternatively, you may wish to visit www.aboutcookies.org, which contains comprehensive information on how to do this on a wide variety of desktop browsers.

Other information we collect

Social buttons. Some pages of the WWW.1VILLASBLANCAS.COM site contain ‘social buttons’. These enable users to share or bookmark the web pages. There are buttons for: Facebook. In order to implement these buttons, and connect them to the relevant social networks and external sites, there are scripts from domains outside of WWW.1VILLASBLANCAS.COM. You should be aware that these sites are likely to be collecting information about what you are doing all around the internet, including on the WWW.1VILLASBLANCAS.COM site. So if you click on any of these buttons, these sites will be registering that action and may use that information. In some cases these sites will be registering the fact that you are visiting WWW.1VILLASBLANCAS.COM, and the specific pages you are on, even if you don’t click on the button if you are logged into their services (e.g. Facebook). You should check the respective policies of each of these sites to see how exactly they use your information and to find out how to opt out, or delete, such information.

External web services. We use a number of external web services on the WWW.1VILLASBLANCAS.COM site, mostly to display content within our web pages. For example, to display videos we use YouTube. We may also use other services to embed content. As with the social buttons we cannot prevent these sites, or external domains, from collecting information on your usage of this embedded content. If you are not logged in to these external services then they will not know who you are but are likely to gather anonymous usage information e.g. number of plays, loads, views etc.

Email tracking. Some of the marketing emails we send may include tracking so that we can tell how much traffic those emails send to our site and we can track whether the recipient has opened and clicked on the email. We use this information to understand open and click rates on our emails to try and improve them. Sometimes we do use the personal information e.g. to re-email people who didn’t click the first time. If you want to be sure that none of your email activity is tracked then you should unsubscribe from the WWW.1VILLASBLANCAS.COM newsletter.
