Cookies and external content on visitmerano.com
This page explains which cookies and external services are used on visitmerano.com and on the German (visitmeran.it) and Italian (visitmerano.it) versions. How we handle your data in general is described in our privacy policy.

What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. The browser's local storage works in a similar way. Both can remember settings or help analyse how a website is used.

Necessary storage: your choice in the cookie notice
When you choose "Necessary only" or "Accept all" in the cookie notice, we save this choice in your browser's local storage (entry "vm-consent"), so the notice does not appear on every page. No data is sent to us or to third parties.

Statistics: Google Analytics 4
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how our pages are used, for example which pages are visited, how long visitors stay, where they come from and which device they use. This helps us improve the site.

  • Provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland
  • Cookies: "_ga" and "_ga_K5VZLRSNEL", stored for up to 2 years
  • According to Google, Google Analytics 4 does not store IP addresses.
  • Data may be transferred to Google LLC in the USA. Google is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
  • You can prevent the collection by blocking or deleting cookies in your browser or by installing Google's browser add-on.
  • Google privacy policy

Maps: OpenStreetMap
On many pages we show maps from OpenStreetMap. The map is loaded directly from the servers of the OpenStreetMap Foundation; your browser sends technically necessary data such as your IP address to these servers.

The "Open in Google Maps" link leads to Google Maps. Data only reaches Google if you click it.

Videos from Vimeo
Some pages contain videos from Vimeo. We only load them when you click the video or choose "Accept all" in the cookie notice. From then on, Vimeo may set cookies and transfer data, such as your IP address, also to the USA.

  • Provider: Vimeo.com, Inc., 330 West 34th Street, 5th Floor, New York, NY 10001, USA
  • Vimeo privacy policy

Our own videos are hosted on our server and do not set cookies.

Links to other websites
We link to hotels, event organisers and our profiles on Facebook and Instagram. These pages only load when you click a link; the privacy rules of the respective provider apply there.

Changing your choice
To change your choice in the cookie notice, delete the site data for visitmerano.com in your browser. The notice will appear again on your next visit. In your browser settings you can also view, delete or block cookies at any time.
