WHERE EUROPEAN DATA-PROTECTION LAW APPLIES

Legal Bases for Processing

Where the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or similar European privacy law applies, personal data is processed on an appropriate legal basis.

Steps Requested Before a Contract

When you submit a tour request, ask about availability or provide information so that Fabrizio can prepare an itinerary or pricing, personal information may be processed because it is necessary to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.

Performance of a Contract

When you confirm an experience, information may be processed as reasonably necessary to administer and provide the services you requested.

Legitimate Interests

Information may be processed for legitimate business purposes such as responding to inquiries, operating and securing the website, preventing misuse, improving website performance and managing ordinary business communications, provided those interests do not override applicable privacy rights.

Legal Obligations

Information may be processed or retained when necessary to comply with applicable legal, tax, accounting, regulatory or governmental requirements.

Consent

Where consent is required, including for certain non-essential cookies, analytics technologies or marketing communications, information may be processed on the basis of your consent. Where applicable, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

Cookies & Similar Technologies

Ciao Fabry Tours uses cookies and similar technologies to operate and protect the website, remember certain preferences, understand website traffic and performance and support third-party features.

Essential Technologies

Some cookies and technologies may be necessary for basic website operation, security, fraud prevention, form protection or other functionality requested by the visitor.

Analytics & Non-Essential Technologies

Analytics and other non-essential technologies may be used to understand website traffic, visitor interactions and site performance.

Where applicable law requires consent before these technologies are activated, they should not be used until the required consent has been obtained.

You may be able to manage non-essential cookies through the cookie controls presented on the website. You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings.

Blocking certain cookies or technologies may affect the operation of some website features.

WEBSITE SERVICES & THIRD PARTIES

Ciao Fabry Tours uses third-party technologies and service providers to operate, secure, measure and support the website and guest experience.

Depending on your cookie choices and the website configuration, Google Analytics may receive information such as IP address, browser and device information, approximate location, pages visited, referral source and website interactions.

Google reCAPTCHA

Google reCAPTCHA may be used on website forms to help protect the website against spam, fraud and automated abuse. reCAPTCHA may process technical and behavioral information necessary to evaluate whether an interaction is likely to have been made by a person or an automated system.

When YouTube content is loaded or played, Google and YouTube may receive technical information about your device, browser and interaction with the embedded content. Depending on the configuration and applicable consent requirements, cookies or similar technologies may also be used.

Payments may be handled through independent third-party payment processors. When payment is made through a payment provider, that provider may collect and process payment-card, billing and transaction information according to its own privacy policy and security practices.

Ciao Fabry Tours does not need to receive or store complete payment-card information when payment information is submitted directly to a third-party payment processor.

Hosting, Security & Content Delivery

The website uses hosting, security and content-delivery services, including Hostinger where applicable, to maintain website availability, improve performance, create backups, protect against malicious activity and maintain technical records.

These providers may process technical information such as IP addresses, browser information, server logs, connection information and security events as necessary to provide their services.

The website may display reviews or other TripAdvisor content through a third-party review widget. When this content loads or you interact with it, TripAdvisor and/or the widget provider may receive technical information about your browser, device or interaction with the embedded content.

CIAO FABRY TOURS & MORO TUSCANY TOURS & TRAVELS

Authorized Affiliate Relationship

Ciao Fabry Tours is an Authorized Affiliate of Moro Tuscany Tours & Travels for its Tuscany tour activities.

This affiliate relationship does not, by itself, mean that website visitor or guest information is routinely shared with Moro Tuscany Tours & Travels.

If information must be shared with Moro Tuscany Tours & Travels for the administration, legal compliance or delivery of a requested Ciao Fabry Tours experience, only information reasonably necessary for that purpose will be provided.

Fabrizio and Ciao Fabry Tours remain your primary point of contact for website inquiries, tour planning and your Ciao Fabry experience unless you are informed otherwise.

INTERNATIONAL VISITORS

International Data Processing & Transfers

Ciao Fabry Tours serves travelers from many countries and uses internet-based services and technology providers that may operate in different jurisdictions.

Ciao Fabry Tours is registered in the United States, while its Tuscany experiences take place in Italy. Website technology and service providers may also process information in the United States, Europe or other countries.

As a result, personal information may be transferred to or processed in a country other than the country in which you live. Privacy and data-protection laws in those countries may differ from those in your home jurisdiction.

Where applicable law requires specific safeguards for an international transfer of personal data, appropriate legal safeguards should be used as required by law.

DATA RETENTION

How Long Information Is Kept

Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

This may include time necessary to:

  • Respond to inquiries
  • Plan and administer experiences
  • Maintain reservation and business records
  • Complete financial or accounting requirements
  • Resolve disputes
  • Enforce agreements
  • Comply with legal, tax or regulatory obligations

Different types of information may therefore be retained for different periods.

Information that is no longer reasonably necessary should be deleted, anonymized or otherwise securely disposed of where appropriate.

DATA SECURITY

How Information Is Protected

Reasonable administrative, technical and organizational safeguards are used to help protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

Website hosting, security tools, content-delivery technologies, backups and other protective measures may be used as part of these efforts.

No website, email transmission, messaging service or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. For that reason, absolute security cannot be promised.

YOUR INFORMATION, YOUR RIGHTS

These rights are not absolute and may be subject to exceptions provided by applicable law.

You may contact Ciao Fabry Tours using the information below to make a privacy-related request. We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.

Children’s Privacy

The Ciao Fabry Tours website and tour-planning services are intended for adults arranging travel.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children for the purpose of allowing them to independently request, purchase or arrange tours.

A parent, guardian or other adult traveler may provide information about children traveling with their group when reasonably necessary to plan an appropriate experience.

If you believe a child has provided personal information without appropriate parental or guardian involvement, please contact Ciao Fabry Tours.

Sensitive Information

Please avoid sending sensitive personal information unless it is reasonably necessary for your requested experience.

For example, you may choose to tell Fabrizio about a food allergy, dietary requirement, accessibility consideration or other relevant need so that an experience can be planned appropriately.

Information of this nature should be used only as reasonably necessary to address your request and may need to be shared with an appropriate local provider involved in the experience.

HOW YOU CONTACT US

Email, Phone & WhatsApp

If you communicate with Fabrizio by email, telephone or WhatsApp, information you provide through that service may also be processed through the systems of the relevant communications provider.

Those providers may maintain technical, account or communication information according to their own privacy policies.
