This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, why, and how it is handled. As this site is operated from France, it complies with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable French data protection law.

Data we collect

When you sign in using Google or email/password, we store your name, email address, and (if provided via Google) a profile picture. This is the minimum required to identify you as an invited user and is not shared with any third party.

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymised traffic data (page views, session counts, general geographic region). This data does not identify individual users and is used solely to understand how the site is being used.

No other personal data is collected, and we do not use your data for marketing, profiling, or any purpose beyond operating this site.

Legal basis for processing

Authentication data is processed on the basis of legitimate interest — to verify that you are an invited user. Anonymised analytics are processed on the same basis.

Access & invitations

This site is invite-only. User accounts are created only when explicitly invited by the site operator. Public sign-up is not available.

Data retention

Your account data is retained for as long as your account is active. Login activity is retained for a maximum of three months. You may request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time by contacting us.

Your rights

Under GDPR you have the right to: access the personal data we hold about you; request correction or deletion of that data; withdraw consent or object to processing; request data portability. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at legal@villapujols.com.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the French data protection authority, the CNIL.

Third-party services

Authentication is powered by Supabase and optionally by Google Sign-In. Traffic analytics are provided by Google Analytics. The holiday rental booking is handled by an external platform at booking.villapujols.com, which has its own privacy policy and terms.

By accessing Villa Pujols you agree to the following terms. We reserve the right to update these terms at any time; the date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.

Access

Most content on this site is restricted to invited users. Access is granted at the sole discretion of the site operator. We may revoke access at any time without notice.

All text, photographs, and other content published on this site are the property of Villa Pujols / Örn Kristinsson unless otherwise stated. You may not reproduce, distribute, or use any content without prior written permission.

External links

This site may link to external websites (including the booking platform). We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or terms of any external site.

Disclaimer

This site is provided on an "as is" basis. We make no warranties of any kind and accept no liability for any loss or damage arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content.

This site uses two types of cookies:

Session cookies — used exclusively to keep you signed in while you browse. These are strictly necessary for authentication and are deleted when your session ends or you sign out.

Analytics cookies — set by Google Analytics to collect anonymised usage data (pages visited, session duration, approximate location by country). No personally identifiable information is collected through analytics.

We do not use advertising, tracking, or profiling cookies of any kind.
