Privacy Policy

This page sets out, without legal padding, what happens to your information while you browse walks, food tours and day trips around Matera. The short version: almost nothing. There is no account to open, no form asking for your name, and no data sold to anybody. Details below.

What We Keep

Reading these guides costs you nothing personal. No sign-up, no login, no details handed over at any stage. The server keeps routine technical records, which pages were requested and when, only so the site keeps working. None of that feeds an advertising profile, and nothing is sold or passed to a third party. That holds whether you are weighing a two-hour walk through the Sassi or a full-day bus trip into the surrounding countryside.

Cookies And Outbound Links

Clicking any tour listed here sends you to a separate booking page run by the company behind the listing. Your card details, email and everything else you enter there are handled under that operator's terms, not ours, and none of it passes back to this site. Some of the links are affiliate links, so when a booking completes, the booking service may pay us a fee. The price you pay does not change either way, and no fee decides which Matera walks or food tours appear here or how each one is described.

Contacting Us

Questions about a Matera tour, a booking problem or anything else on the site can be sent by email, and the message stays with us. Your address is used purely to reply. Nothing is passed on to operators or booking services, and a reply never puts you on a mailing list.

Your Choices

How much this site tracks you is mostly your call. Block cookies in your browser and the pages still work. The analytics we run counts visits in aggregate, with no name or individual attached, so there is no personal record of you stored anywhere. Want to know what, if anything, we hold? One short email to our contact address brings a direct answer.
