Privacy policy

Who we are

Ericeira Travel (ericeiratravel.com) is an independent, multilingual travel guide to Ericeira, Portugal. It is an informational website: there are no user accounts, no newsletters and no forms that collect personal data.

For any privacy question or request, write to info@ericeiratravel.com.

What data we process

We do not ask you for personal information to use this site. The only data processed comes from two third-party services: Google Analytics, which helps us understand how the site is used, and Google AdSense, which serves the advertising that funds the guide.

If you email us, we will use your address only to reply and will not add it to any list.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to measure aggregate traffic: which pages are read, in which language, from which country, on which type of device. This helps us decide what to improve and what to write next.

Analytics cookies are only set after you give consent through the cookie message. Without consent, measurement is limited and cookieless. You can learn how Google processes this data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Advertising

This site shows ads served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads and, if you consent, to personalise them based on your visits to this and other websites.

If you do not consent to personalised advertising, non-personalised ads may still be shown, based on the content of the page rather than on you.

You can control ad personalisation in your Google account at adssettings.google.com, and opt out of many third-party ad cookies at aboutads.info or youronlinechoices.eu.

Cookies and consent

If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a consent message asks you whether you accept cookies for advertising and analytics before any are set for those purposes.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by reopening the privacy settings via the consent message, or by clearing this site’s cookies in your browser.

Your rights

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) you have the right to access, rectify and erase personal data concerning you, to object to or restrict its processing, and to data portability.

Because this site does not itself store personal data about you, most requests will concern data held by Google; the links above explain how to exercise your choices there. You can also contact us at info@ericeiratravel.com, and you have the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority. In Portugal this is the CNPD, Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (cnpd.pt).

External links

The guide links to external websites, such as transport operators, weather services and official tourism pages. We are not responsible for their content or their privacy practices; check their own policies.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site or the law changes. The date at the top of the page shows the latest revision. Significant changes will be reflected here before they take effect.
