Last Updated: August 10, 2026
At Twin Leaves Thessaloniki, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you visit our website, read our blog, or interact with our content.
1. Who We Are
This website is operated as an informational guide to Thessaloniki and a showcase for our holiday rental, Twin Leaves. All reservations and payments are processed externally via our official listing on Airbnb.
2. Data We Collect
Because we do not process direct bookings, payments, or account creations on this site, the personal data we collect is minimal:
- Inquiries & Contact: If you reach out to us using a contact form or via email, we collect your name, email address, and any information you voluntarily provide.
- Technical & Analytics Data: When you browse our blog, we may automatically collect non-identifiable technical data, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring URL, and pages visited.
- Data Sharing: We do not share your information with third parties for marketing purposes. If you proceed to book with us via Airbnb, your data is handled according to Airbnb’s Privacy Policy.
Note: We do not collect credit card details, government identification, or sensitive personal data on this website.
3. How We Use Your Data
We process your information strictly for the following purposes:
- To respond to your inquiries or questions about the apartment and Thessaloniki.
- To monitor and improve our website performance, user experience, and blog content.
- To ensure the security and proper functioning of our site.
4. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), our legal bases for processing your data are:
- Consent: When you voluntarily submit a contact form or accept non-essential cookies.
- Legitimate Interests: To analyze website performance, improve our local guides, and prevent fraudulent activity.
5. Third-Party Links & Airbnb
Our website contains links to external platforms, primarily our listing page on Airbnb, as well as embedded services like Google Maps.
Once you click a link to leave our site or proceed to Airbnb to make a booking, this Privacy Policy no longer applies. Any personal information (including payment details and passport information required for host reporting) provided during the booking process is governed exclusively by Airbnb’s Privacy Policy.
6. Data Sharing & Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may only share anonymized performance data with trusted service providers who assist us in operating our website (e.g., website hosting or analytics providers), provided they adhere to strict confidentiality standards.
7. Data Retention
- Contact Inquiries: We retain email correspondence only as long as necessary to fulfill your request, after which it is deleted.
- Analytics Data: Anonymized traffic data is retained in accordance with standard analytics practices (typically 14 months).
8. Your Rights Under GDPR
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the right to:
- Access: Request a copy of any personal data we hold about you.
- Rectification: Request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
