7. Cookies and similar technologies
The Site uses minimal cookies and local storage, strictly necessary for its operation (maintaining the selection cart, preferences). We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. You can configure your browser to block or delete cookies; some Site functions may be affected.
8. Information security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures pursuant to the Florida Information Protection Act (FIPA), § 501.171 Fla. Stat., including: end-to-end encrypted transmission, access controls, data segregation, internal audit records, and payment providers certified to industry standards. No system is absolutely foolproof, but we work to minimize risks and respond promptly to incidents.
9. Data retention
We retain data for the periods necessary for the stated purposes and to comply with legal obligations and defense against claims:
- Booking and consent data: minimum four (4) years, aligned with Florida's contractual statute of limitations (§ 95.11 Fla. Stat.).
- Payment records: in accordance with applicable tax obligations.
- Technical logs: according to minimum necessary retention, typically between 30 and 180 days.
After the periods expire, the data is deleted, anonymized, or aggregated statistically.

Subject to applicable law, you may request:
- Access to the personal information we hold about you.
- Rectification of inaccurate or outdated data.
- Deletion of your data when no longer necessary and no legal obligation requires retention.
