What we collect, and why.
Lento is a small site run by one person. This page says plainly what data it touches. Last updated 11 September 2026.
What runs by default
The site itself sets no tracking cookies. Pages are served through Vercel, which keeps short-lived technical logs (IP address, user agent) to run and protect the service.
What runs only after you accept
If you accept in the banner, Google Analytics and Vercel Web Analytics count visits so we can see which stays people read, and Stay22 helps credit bookings made through our links. Choose “Essential only” and none of these tools loads. You can change your mind by clearing this site’s data in your browser; the banner will ask again.
Booking links
Links marked as booking links go through affiliate programs (Stay22, Booking.com, or a hotel’s own program). The partner sees that the visit came from Lento and may pay us a commission if you book. You pay no fee to Lento. Hotels cannot pay to be listed; commissions never decide what appears in the collection.
The letter
If you join the letter we store your email address, use it to send the letter, and nothing else. Every letter carries an unsubscribe link. Buttondown keeps the minimum suppression record needed to honor that choice; you can ask us to delete your subscriber data.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you can ask what data we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, and complain to your local data protection authority. For any of that, write to hello@thelento.com and we will answer within a month.
