Cookie Policy

www.siracusatravel.com or the “Site” uses cookies to make its services simple and efficient for users who view the pages. This page is part of our Privacy Policy and describes the use of cookies on our website. Most of the sites visited use cookies in order to improve the user’s online experience by ensuring that the website “remembers” it, both for the duration of the visit (through a “session cookie”) and in the case of repeated visits (through a “permanent cookie”). This policy explains how this happens. Some websites also use cookies to create targeted advertising or marketing messages, based for example on the user’s location and / or browsing habits.

 What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files (usually numbers and letters) that a website can insert into the user’s computer or mobile device when they visit a site or page. Cookies will allow the website or another website to recognize the user’s device at the time of the next visit. The same applies to web beacons and other similar files. In this policy we will use the term “cookies” to refer to all files that collect information in this way. Cookies have many different functions, such as allowing efficient navigation between web pages, storing user preferences, improving the user’s overall online experience on a website. Cookies allow a simpler and faster interaction between the user and the website. If a website does not use cookies, it will consider the user a new visitor each time it moves to a new page on the site: for example, when the user enters login data and moves to another page, it will not be recognized and the site will not be able to keep the login active. Some cookies contain personal information. For example, if the user clicks “remember me” at the time of access, a cookie will store his username. Most cookies do not collect information that identifies the user, but stores more general information such as how users reach and use a website or a user’s general location.

How do we use cookies?
Cookies allow us to identify the user device or the moment it accessed. We use cookies that are strictly necessary to allow the user to move around the site or to provide some basic functions. We use cookies to increase the functionality of the website by storing, for example, user preferences. We also use cookies to improve the performance of our website, thus ensuring a better online experience for the user. To eliminate any doubt we do not use cookies to collect information that personally identifies the user. For more information regarding the cookies used on this website, please visit

It is also possible to delete cookies that have already been set. The user can also limit or block web browser cookies set on his device through the browser settings; the Help function inside the browser should indicate how to do it.
