Cookie Policy

Information on cookies

Our website uses cookies to allow users better service and a better browsing experience.

What are cookies?

Cookies are little text files sent by the Site to the terminal of the interested party (usually to the browser), where they are memorised and then sent back to the Site at the next visit by the same user. A cookie cannot retrieve any other data from the user’s hard drive, nor can it transmit computer viruses or acquire email addresses. Every cookie is unique to the user’s web browser.

What cookies do we use?

Technical session cookies

The cookies used on the sites http://www.vestashotel.it/, http://www.hoteleos.com/, http://www.hoteleos.it/, http://www.risorgimentoresort.com/, http://www.hotelpresidentlecce.com/, http://www.hotelpresidentlecce.com/, and http://www.risorgimentoresort.it/ are used for performing computer authentications or monitoring sessions and memorising specific technical information regarding the users that access the servers of Blastness, manager of the site maintenance service and the hotel reservations services.
In accordance with article 122, paragraph 1, of the Privacy Code (in the formulation currently in force in the wake of the entry into force of Legislative Decree 69/2012), "technical" cookies may be used even without the consent of the interested party.

For maximum transparency, we list below a series of technical cookies and cases of specific operations on the Site:

• cookies implanted directly in the user’s/contractor’s terminal (which will not be used for further purposes) such as session cookies used for online reservations on the Site, authentication cookies, and personalisation cookie (for example, for selecting the browsing language); these cookies only remain active for the duration of the session.
• cookies used for statistically analysing accesses/visits to the site (so-called "analytics" cookies), which have purely statistical purposes (and not also of profiling or marketing) and gather information in aggregate form without the possibility of identifying the individual user. In these cases, given that the regulations in force require that, as regards analytics cookies, the user be provided with clear and adequate indication of the simple ways to oppose their implanting (including any anonymisation mechanisms of the cookies themselves), below we specify the methods for deactivating the cookies installed. The duration of analytics session cookies is 30 minutes.
