Privacy & Cookie Policy

Ilha Grande Travel (ilhagrande.travel) is an independent travel guide. We respect your privacy and keep data collection to a minimum. This page explains what we collect, the third-party services we use, and your choices. Questions? Write to info@ilhagrande.travel.

Information we collect

• Contact you send us. If you email us or use a contact form, we receive the details you provide (such as your name, email and message) and use them only to reply to you.
• Server logs. Like most websites, our hosting keeps standard technical logs (for example your IP address, browser type and the pages requested) for security and troubleshooting.
• Cookies and similar technologies. The website itself does not use tracking cookies. However, some third-party services below may set their own cookies in your browser.

Cookies and third-party services

To keep the guide free, we use partners that may collect data or set cookies when you interact with their features:

• Stay22 — our accommodation map and automatic accommodation links are powered by Stay22. When you use the map or click a lodging link, Stay22 may set cookies and process data to show prices and to attribute bookings. We earn a commission on some bookings, at no extra cost to you.
• Affiliate links. Some outbound links to accommodation or services are affiliate links: if you book through them, we may earn a small commission. This never changes the price you pay.
• Advertising (Google AdSense). We may display ads through Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies to serve and measure ads, sometimes based on your prior visits to this or other sites. You can learn more and manage this at Google’s partner-sites page and in your Google Ad Settings.
• Analytics. We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which content is useful, in aggregate.

How we use information

We use the limited data above only to reply to your messages, keep the site secure and working, understand what content helps travellers, and fund the guide through advertising and affiliate commissions. We do not sell your personal data.

Your choices and rights

• Cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and opt out of personalised ads via Google Ad Settings.
• Your data. Depending on where you live (for example under the EU/EEA GDPR or Brazil’s LGPD), you may have the right to access, correct or delete the data we hold about you. To make a request, email info@ilhagrande.travel.

Data retention and security

We keep messages only as long as needed to answer you and for our records, and we take reasonable measures to protect the information we hold. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure.

Children

This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13.
