("Stravagando" or the "Platform"), controller of the digital platform Stravagando accessible at the main address stravagando.com and related subdomains, on the mobile app for iOS and Android (the "App"), as well as on transactional and marketing email channels using analogous technologies (jointly, the "Tracking Tools").

The analytical list of Third Parties used by Stravagando, with indication of the relevant role, purpose, legal basis and privacy policy, is reported in Art. 5 of this Notice and updated periodically within the Preferences Panel.
ART. 3 — CATEGORIES OF TRACKING TOOLS USED
Stravagando uses the Tracking Tools classified in the four categories described below, compliant with the classification of the Garante Provision of 10 June 2021 and the Cookie consent framework of the European Data Protection Board.
3.A — Strictly Necessary Tracking Tools
3.1 Definition. These are Tracking Tools whose installation does not require the User's prior consent insofar as they are strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the User, to enable the transmission of a communication, to ensure the security of the Platform or to comply with regulatory obligations.
3.2 Purposes.
(a) Operation of the website and the App: management of browsing sessions, recognition of the User within the same session, maintenance of authentication state (login), persistence of the booking cart, checkout management;
(b) Security and fraud prevention: identification of intrusion attempts, brute force, credential stuffing, automated bots, device fingerprinting for anti-fraud purposes integrated with Stripe Connect systems;
(c) Storage of accessibility settings chosen by the User (font size, contrast, interface language), where configurable without profiling;
(d) Load balancing and optimization of server performance (load balancing);
(e) Storage of the User's choices regarding consent to Cookies (so-called consent log), to fulfill the obligation to document the giving of consent pursuant to art. 7 GDPR and the Garante Provision of 10 June 2021;
(f) Performance of regulatory obligations, including the retention of transaction logs for tax and anti-money laundering purposes (italian Legislative Decree 231/2007) and DAC7 audit logs (italian Legislative Decree 32/2023).
3.3 Legal basis. The use of Strictly Necessary Tracking Tools is based on art. 122(1), first sentence, of the italian Privacy Code, on art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract to which the Data Subject is a party or performance of pre-contractual measures at the Data Subject's request), on art. 6(1)(c) GDPR (compliance with legal obligations) and on art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest of the Controller in security, fraud prevention and functionality of the Platform), depending on the specific purpose.
3.4 Consent. For Strictly Necessary Tracking Tools, the User's prior consent is not required. The deactivation of such Tools through the browser settings may result in the total or partial inability to use the Platform and to enjoy the services.
3.B — Functional Tracking Tools
3.5 Definition. These are Tracking Tools used to remember the User's choices and preferences in order to improve the browsing experience and provide advanced functionality that is not strictly indispensable.

(c) storage of the destination city or selected search filters to consistently populate subsequent visits;
(d) storage of wishlists and Experiences marked as favorites for unauthenticated Users;
(e) integration with video players (e.g. YouTube, Vimeo) and maps (e.g. Google Maps) embedded on Experience detail pages, where the Third Party requires Tracking Tools for the operation of the player/map;
(f) real-time chat with customer service (where activated by a third-party provider), for the maintenance of conversation history and the identification of the User within the chat session;
(g) single sign-on through Google, Apple, Facebook accounts, where the User chooses such authentication method.

3.C — Analytics Tracking Tools
3.8 Definition. These are Tracking Tools used to collect information on the number of visitors and the methods of using the Platform.
3.9 Distinction between aggregated and disaggregated analytics.
(a) Aggregated analytics assimilable to technical: Tracking Tools used exclusively to obtain aggregated statistical information, where the conditions of paragraph 4.2 of the Garante Provision of 10 June 2021 cumulatively apply: (i) anonymization of the IP address by masking of at least the fourth portion (e.g. 192.168.1.XXX); (ii) absence of cross-referencing of data with other First or Third Party sources; (iii) absence of transfer to Third Parties for autonomous purposes of the provider; (iv) configuration of the provider in mode that does not allow reconciliation with other identities (e.g. disabling signal sharing with advertising services of the same provider). For such analytics prior consent is not required, but the Notice remains published.
(b) Disaggregated or non-technical analytics: Tracking Tools that do not fully comply with the conditions of point (a) above (e.g. individual cross-page path tracking, session replay, identifying heatmaps, personalized funnel analysis). For such analytics prior consent is required.

3.D — Marketing and Profiling Tracking Tools
3.12 Definition. These are Tracking Tools used for profiling activities, targeted advertising and personalization of commercial content offered to the User on the Platform and on third-party sites, apps and social networks.
3.13 Purposes.
(a) Profiling of the User's browsing behavior in order to propose commercial content consistent with their interests (e.g. categories of Experiences viewed, destination cities, price ranges);
(b) Remarketing and retargeting towards Users who have visited the Platform without completing a booking, through advertising campaigns on third-party sites, apps and social networks (Google Display, Meta, TikTok, X);
(c) Lookalike audience: creation of audiences similar to those of Stravagando Users to extend the reach of advertising campaigns, by sending hashed or pseudonymized identifiers to Third Parties;
(d) Conversion measurement generated by advertising campaigns (conversion tracking) and attribution of incoming traffic;

The use of Marketing and Profiling Tracking Tools is based on art. 6(1)(a) GDPR — prior consent of the User given freely, specifically, in an informed manner and unambiguously through the Preferences Panel, on a granular basis by category and — where required — by individual Third Party.
3.15 Automated profiling. Save as specifically indicated for individual Third Parties, the use of Marketing and Profiling Tracking Tools does not entail fully automated decision-making processes that produce legal effects on the User or significantly affect them pursuant to art. 22 GDPR. Any relevant decisions — such as account suspension or the outcome of anti-fraud checks — are subject to human review under the terms described in the General Terms and Conditions and the applicable Host/Referrer Terms.
ART. 4 — GIVING, MODIFICATION AND WITHDRAWAL OF CONSENT
4.A — First-visit banner
4.1 Banner characteristics. Upon access to the Platform by a User who has not yet expressed their preferences, or pursuant to paragraph 4.4, a short information banner is displayed (the "Cookie Banner") which sets out:
(a) the indication of the presence of Tracking Tools and their purposes;
(b) the reference to this Cookie Policy;
(c) the three choice commands, equivalent in size, position, background color and contrast: "Accept all", "Reject all" and "Customize".
In compliance with the Garante Provision of 10 June 2021 and the EDPB Guidelines 03/2022 on dark patterns, the "Reject all" command has equal prominence and immediacy compared to the "Accept all" command. Closing the banner through the "X" close button alone does not constitute the giving of consent: in such case only Strictly Necessary Tracking Tools will be used and the banner will be re-presented on subsequent visits under paragraph 4.4 below.
4.2 Granularity. By clicking "Customize", the User accesses the Preferences Panel and may give consent on a granular basis for each of the categories referred to in Art. 3, and possibly by individual Third Party where the Platform offers such level of granularity.
4.B — Preferences Panel
4.3 Permanent access. The Preferences Panel is accessible at any time through:

(b) on the occasion of significant changes to the processing purposes, to the list of Third Parties or to the categories of Tracking Tools used;
(c) where the User accesses from a different device or browser or deletes the technical consent log Cookies;
(d) at the natural expiry of the technical consent log Cookie.
4.D — Withdrawal
4.5 Withdrawal as easy as giving. The User may withdraw the consent given at any time, easily and with the same ease with which they gave it, through the Preferences Panel. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of consent prior to withdrawal.
4.6 Effects of withdrawal. Following withdrawal, the Tracking Tools for which consent has been withdrawn will no longer be used for new processing operations. Data already collected remains subject to processing until the achievement of the purposes for which it was lawfully collected, according to the retention periods set out in Art. 7 below. The User may request the deletion of past data through the exercise of GDPR rights pursuant to Art. 8 of this Notice.
4.E — Cross-device and cross-platform
4.7 Synchronization of preferences. The preferences expressed by the registered User are — where technically possible and where the User accesses their account — synchronized across all devices and all platforms (website, iOS App, Android App, email) on which they use Stravagando services, by associating the preferences with their unique account identifier.
4.8 Unregistered Users. For unregistered Users, preferences are stored locally on the specific device/browser used and are not synchronized between different devices. The User who accesses from a different device will find the first-visit banner.

9.2 Limits of browser settings. Browser settings do not allow granular control by Cookie category equivalent to that available in the Platform's Preferences Panel. The total deactivation of Cookies via browser may result in the total or partial inability to use the Platform.
9.3 Mobile advertising identifiers. On mobile devices, the User may limit advertising tracking through the operating system settings:
(a) iOS: "Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking" and deactivation of consent to tracking for the Apps, with consequent transmission of an IDFA equal to a string of zeros by the Stravagando App;
(b) Android: "Settings > Privacy > Ads" and activation of "Delete advertising ID" or "Disable ad personalization".
9.4 Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control signals. Stravagando recognizes the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal as an automated expression of refusal to process personal data for marketing purposes for U.S. residents under CCPA/CPRA. The browser Do Not Track (DNT) signal is considered for EU Users as a further expression of preference, although its technical interpretation is not currently standardized.
ART. 10 — PROVISIONS FOR U.S. RESIDENTS
10.1 Regulatory framework. For residents in the United States of America, the following state laws apply on a supplementary basis, where applicable based on the User's State of residence: California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (CPRA), Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA), Colorado Privacy Act (CPA), Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA), Utah Consumer Privacy Act (UCPA), and subsequent state laws in force.
10.2 Rights of California residents. Residents in California are entitled, under CCPA/CPRA, to: right to know (to know the categories of data collected and shared), right to delete, right to correct, right to opt-out of sale and sharing, right to limit use of sensitive personal information, right to non-discrimination (non-discrimination in the exercise of rights), right to portability.
10.3 No sale/no share. Stravagando does not sell the Personal Information of U.S. residents to third parties for commercial purposes under CCPA/CPRA. The sharing of Personal Information with Third Parties for cross-context behavioral advertising purposes takes place exclusively on the basis of consent given by the User in the Preferences Panel and/or the GPC signal, and is subject to the opt-out right through the link "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" / "Your Privacy Choices" published on the Platform.
10.4 Exercise of rights. U.S. residents may exercise their rights through the "Your Privacy Choices" portal of the Platform or through email to support@stravagando.com, with response within 45 days extendable to 90 in cases of particular complexity. For U.S. residents, the supervisory authority of the italian Garante does not apply; the competent bodies are the Office of the Attorney General of the State of residence and — for California residents — the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA).
ART. 11 — MINORS
11.1 Minimum age. The Platform is intended for adults. Stravagando does not knowingly collect personal data of minors under the age of 14 in Italy (threshold under art. 2-quinquies of the italian Privacy Code for consent to data processing in the context of information society services) nor, for Users resident in other EU Member States, of an age lower than the threshold established by local legislation. For U.S. residents, Stravagando does not knowingly collect personal data of minors under the age of 13, in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA, 15 U.S.C. §§ 6501-6506).
11.2 Method of requesting deletion. Should a parent or legal guardian believe that their minor child has provided personal data to Stravagando in violation of age limitations, they may request its deletion through email to support@stravagando.com, with consequent prompt removal of data and deletion of any accounts.
