Privacy & Cookie Policy
Last Updated: August 2026
1. Statement of Commitment
At Findoramabeacon (Findoramabeacon.sbs), owned and operated by ("we", "our", "us"), we are committed to safeguarding the privacy of our visitors. This policy outlines how we collect, process, store, and protect user information when navigating our Barcelona culinary portal.
2. Data We Collect
We believe in strict data minimization. We only collect details that are voluntarily provided or technically required to ensure site reliability:
- Inquiry Submissions: Your name, email address, and message contents submitted through our Contact Us form.
- Technical & Analytical Logs: Anonymous browser user agent, IP address, device type, referring URLs, and page access timestamps.
3. Comprehensive Cookie Policy & Persistent Preferences
Cookies are small text files stored on your browser. Findoramabeacon uses privacy-focused local storage mechanisms (`localStorage`) to remember your cookie preferences across browsing sessions:
- Essential Functional Cookies: Required to remember your cookie consent choice so you are not prompted repeatedly on every page load.
- Performance & Analytics Cookies: Aggregated, non-identifiable data used to analyze traffic spikes and optimize server load.
Once you select "Accept All" or "Decline Non-Essential" on our consent banner, your choice is securely saved in your web browser's `localStorage` and will not reappear on subsequent page visits unless you clear your browser data.
4. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR & Global Frameworks)
We process personal data based on legitimate interest in providing reliable dining travel content, user consent provided via cookie preferences, and fulfillment of contract when responding to business inquiries.
5. Third-Party Sharing & Data Transfers
We do not sell, rent, trade, or monetize your personal information to third parties or marketing brokers under any circumstances. Technical server logs are processed on secure cloud infrastructure hosted in compliance with global standards.
6. Data Security & Retention
We maintain HTTPS encryption across all web pages. Inquiries submitted via our contact form are retained for up to 12 months for administrative follow-up before being securely deleted.
7. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (including EU/UK GDPR and California CCPA/CPRA rights), you have the right to request access, correction, or deletion of your personal data held by us. To exercise these rights, please contact our privacy compliance officer.
