Your privacy

Who we are

The data controller for this website is:

Data you send us

When you use the contact form or the table request form for the Meraki Restaurant, we receive what you type in: your name, email address, phone number, and your message or the details of your request (date, time, number of guests, notes).

We use this data only to answer you and to handle your request. The legal basis is your request itself, that is, steps taken at your request before a possible booking, and our legitimate interest in answering the people who write to us.

We keep your message for as long as we need to handle it and for as long as the law requires.

Booking a stay

Bookings are not made on this website. The “Book now” and “Check availability” buttons take you to our online booking engine at reserve-online.net, operated for us by a specialized provider. The data you enter there, including payment details, is processed on that system under its own privacy notice, which you can read before you book.

Who helps us

We work with a small number of service providers, who process data only on our instructions:

• Web Artworks, which built this website, hosts it and maintains it.
• Postmark, an email delivery service based in the United States, which delivers the emails sent by our forms. Transfers to the United States are covered by the safeguards the provider offers under EU law.
• Our booking engine provider, as described above.

We do not sell your data and we do not share it for advertising.

Cookies and similar technologies

This website itself does not set any cookies. It stores two small notes in your browser: your answer to the cookie notice, kept for six months, and, until you close the page, the fact that you closed an offer message. Neither is used to identify you.

We show a price comparison tool provided by RateParity, which compares our direct prices with those of other booking websites. It is loaded from RateParity’s servers and may store cookies or similar data on your device. It is loaded only if you choose “Allow” in the cookie notice. You can change your choice at any time with the button below.

The map on the Contact page is provided by Google. It is loaded only when you click “Show the map”. From that moment Google receives your IP address and may set cookies, under Google’s own privacy policy.

The car hire form on the Village Life page is provided by Eurohire, a car rental company. It is loaded only when you click “Find a car”. From that moment Eurohire, and Google, which delivers some of the form’s files, receive your IP address. What you enter in the form, and any booking you make, is handled by Eurohire under its own privacy policy.

Visitor statistics

To understand how the website is used, we count visits with Umami, an analytics tool that we host ourselves. It sets no cookies, does not follow you across websites and does not store data that identifies you. We only see totals, such as how many times a page was viewed.

Security

The website is served over an encrypted connection. To protect the forms from misuse, your IP address is processed for a short time when you send a form; it is not stored with your message.

Your rights

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) you have the right to:

• ask what personal data we hold about you and receive a copy,
• have incorrect data corrected,
• have your data deleted, where the law allows it,
• restrict or object to the processing of your data,
• receive the data you gave us in a portable format,
• withdraw a consent you have given, at any time.

To use any of these rights, write to us at the address above. If you believe your data has been handled unlawfully, you may lodge a complaint with the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (www.dpa.gr).

Changes to this policy

We may update this page when the website or the law changes. The date at the top shows the latest version.
