1. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text records stored by a browser. Local storage is a similar browser feature. Embedded scripts, pixels, and software-development tools can also recognize a browser or device. IslandTravelAtlas separates these technologies into necessary, analytics, and partner/marketing categories.
2. Technologies used by IslandTravelAtlas
| Name/category | Purpose | Provider | Typical duration | Consent |
|---|---|---|---|---|
ita_privacy_consent and ita_privacy_consent_v1 | Remember consent choices, version, and date | IslandTravelAtlas | Up to 180 days | Strictly necessary |
| Server session/security records | Deliver pages, prevent abuse, diagnose faults | IslandTravelAtlas hosting | Normally up to 30 days in logs | Strictly necessary |
| Optional analytics | Measure page usefulness and interaction | Only an enabled analytics provider | Provider-dependent | Off until analytics consent |
| Embedded partner tools | Display optional flight search or similar partner functionality | Travelpayouts or another disclosed partner | Provider-dependent | Off until partner/marketing consent |
3. Affiliate links
Ordinary affiliate links do not need to set a cookie on IslandTravelAtlas merely to appear. When you choose to click one, you leave this site. The affiliate network or merchant may then use referral parameters, cookies, or similar technologies under its own policy so it can attribute a booking. Rejecting IslandTravelAtlas's optional technologies does not control cookies on a third-party site you intentionally visit.
4. Your choices
Optional categories are off until selected. Rejecting non-essential technologies is as easy as accepting them.
You may also use browser controls to delete or block cookies. Blocking all storage may cause the consent banner to reappear because the site cannot remember your selection.
5. Global Privacy Control
If the browser sends a supported Global Privacy Control signal, IslandTravelAtlas treats it as an opt-out of sale/sharing and keeps the partner/marketing category disabled. Analytics remains subject to the separate consent choice.
6. Changes
This table will be updated before materially different cookies or tracking technologies are introduced.
