1. Who we are
All About Lanzarote is a travel guide website owned and operated by Proyecto Antal S.L., a company registered in Spain with tax ID B-XXXXXXXX. Our website address is https://allaboutlanzarote.com. For any privacy-related questions, contact us at neoproyectoantalsl@gmail.com.
2. What data we collect
We collect minimal data, and only when necessary:

- Cookies and usage data — anonymous browsing data via Google Analytics (if enabled) and affiliate cookies from our partners (Booking.com via Stay22, Civitatis, DiscoverCars, Travelpayouts, GetYourGuide).
- Server logs — standard web server logs including IP address, browser type, and pages visited. These are automatically collected by Hostinger and are not used for profiling.
We do NOT collect any sensitive personal data, payment information, or identification documents. We do not have user accounts or member areas.
3. How we use your data
- Newsletter: Your email is used exclusively to send you our newsletter (Lanzarote updates, new guides, travel tips). You can unsubscribe at any time with one click.
- Analytics: Anonymous usage data helps us understand which pages are most useful so we can improve the site.
- Affiliate cookies: When you click an affiliate link and make a booking, a cookie identifies that you came from our site so we may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you.
We never sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
