How we use cookies and similar technologies to improve your experience on DiscoverYourTour.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how you use the site.

We use cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage and pixels) to provide, secure, and improve our platform.

2. Cookies We Use

We use the following types of cookies:

  • Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function (e.g., authentication, security, load balancing). These cannot be disabled.
  • Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as language, currency, and recently viewed tours.
  • Analytics cookies: Help us understand how visitors use our site (pages viewed, booking funnel, etc.) to improve our services.
  • Marketing cookies: Used to deliver relevant ads and measure campaign effectiveness. These may be set by our advertising partners.

3. Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for core platform functionality:

  • Session management: Keep you logged in as you navigate
  • Security: Protect against cross-site request forgery and other attacks
  • Load balancing: Distribute traffic across servers for performance
  • Consent: Remember your cookie preferences

Without these cookies, certain features of the platform would not work.

  • Collapsed or expanded UI elements

You can disable these, but some features may not work as expected.

5. Analytics Cookies

We use analytics to understand how users interact with our platform. This helps us improve our design, fix issues, and optimize the booking experience.

Data collected may include pages visited, time on site, referral source, and device type. This data is aggregated and anonymized where possible.

6. Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to deliver relevant advertisements and measure their effectiveness. They may track your visits across websites to build a profile of your interests.

You can opt out of marketing cookies through our cookie preferences or your browser settings. Opting out may result in less relevant ads but will not affect core platform functionality.

7. Managing Your Preferences

You can control cookies in several ways:

  • Cookie banner: When you first visit, you can accept or customize which cookie categories to allow
  • Browser settings: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Note that blocking all cookies may affect platform functionality
  • Opt-out tools: Industry tools like the Digital Advertising Alliance allow you to opt out of interest-based advertising
