1. Scope
This Policy applies to salvadorinsider.com and to services operated directly by Salvador Insider. External websites, booking platforms, social networks and other third-party services have their own privacy practices.
2. Information processed automatically
When you use the website, technical and usage information may be processed, such as pages viewed, approximate visit duration, traffic source, browser and device characteristics, approximate location and interactions with site elements.
This information is used to operate the website, understand usage, identify technical problems, improve content and measure performance.
3. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand, in aggregate, how visitors use Salvador Insider. Google Analytics may use cookies or similar identifiers and may process page views, session information, traffic source, device information, approximate location and interaction events.
We do not intentionally send Google Analytics directly identifying information such as a visitor's name, email address or telephone number.
4. Advertising
Salvador Insider uses Google AdSense. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver, measure and, where legally permitted, personalise advertising.
Where applicable law requires consent, non-essential advertising technologies must respect the visitor's privacy choices.
5. Consent and cookie preferences
Where required, Salvador Insider uses a consent-management mechanism for optional analytics and advertising technologies. Visitors can use the choices presented by that mechanism and may also manage or delete cookies through their browser settings.
Rejecting optional cookies does not block access to the site's main editorial content.
6. Affiliate links and third-party services
Salvador Insider may use affiliate links or tools supplied by third parties. If a visitor follows one of those links, the external provider may process technical identifiers or other information under its own privacy policy and terms.
Any active commercial relationship that is relevant to editorial content should be disclosed clearly. We do not currently describe any discontinued affiliate platform as an active provider.
7. Information provided directly by visitors
The website currently does not require a user account and does not operate a public newsletter signup or general-purpose contact form.
A dedicated public contact channel for privacy and editorial requests is still being configured. Until that channel is published, Salvador Insider does not ask visitors to submit personal data directly through the website.
8. Legal bases and purposes
Depending on the applicable law and the purpose, processing may rely on consent, legitimate interests, the need to operate and secure the website, compliance with legal obligations or the exercise and defence of rights.
- operate and secure the website;
- measure audience and content performance;
- improve navigation, accessibility and reliability;
- manage consent choices;
- deliver and measure advertising;
- comply with legal obligations and protect rights.
9. Service providers and international processing
Some service providers used by Salvador Insider, including Google, operate internationally. Information may therefore be processed in countries other than the visitor's country, subject to the provider's infrastructure, settings and applicable safeguards.
10. Retention and security
Personal data should be kept only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose, legal obligations, security or the exercise of rights. Retention periods used by third-party services may be governed by their own policies and settings.
We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards, but no internet-connected service can guarantee absolute security.
11. Your rights
Depending on the law that applies to you, you may have rights such as access, correction, deletion, objection, restriction, portability, withdrawal of consent or complaint to a competent data-protection authority.
Brazilian visitors may have rights under the LGPD. Visitors in the European Economic Area and other jurisdictions may have additional rights under their applicable privacy laws.
12. Children
Salvador Insider is a general travel guide and is not designed as a service directed specifically at children. We do not intentionally request children's personal data for profiling or targeted advertising.
13. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy when our tools, providers, features or legal obligations change. The version published on the website is the current version.
Our privacy commitment
We aim to collect and process no more information than is reasonably necessary to operate, measure, protect and finance Salvador Insider.
When a new feature or provider materially changes that picture, this Policy should change with it.
