This Cookie Policy explains the cookies and similar techniques (such as browser storage) used on the Beachvilla Rivièra website, why we use them, and the choices you have. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. We also use comparable browser storage (localStorage) to remember a few preferences. Some are necessary for the site to work; others, such as analytics, are only used with your consent.
Your choice
When you first visit the site, a banner asks whether you accept analytics cookies. Necessary and functional storage is always active because the site cannot work properly without it; analytics is placed only if you choose “Accept analytics”. You can change your choice at any time using the Cookie settings link in the footer.
The cookies and storage we use
Strictly necessary
Needed for the site to function and to remember your cookie choice. These do not track you and are always active.
Functional
Remember preferences such as your language and the number of guests you entered, so the site is easier to use. These are first-party only and do not track you across other websites.
Analytics (Google Analytics 4)
Help us understand how the site is used – which pages are visited and how visitors find us – so we can improve it. These are placed only after you accept analytics. Until then, Google Consent Mode keeps analytics storage denied and no analytics cookie is set.

More about Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (property [[GA4_MEASUREMENT_ID]]) to measure website use. It is loaded through Google Consent Mode: analytics storage is denied by default and only enabled after you accept, with IP addresses anonymised. Data may be processed by Google outside the European Economic Area under appropriate safeguards. For details, see Google’s own privacy and cookie information.
Managing and withdrawing consent
You can withdraw or change your consent at any time via the Cookie settings link in the footer. You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that withdrawing consent stops new analytics cookies from being set, but cannot delete analytics cookies already stored – you can remove those by clearing your browser cookies.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when our use of cookies changes. The current version is always available on this page.
