Legal Basis for Processing
We require your consent for non-essential cookies. Essential cookies are processed under our legitimate interest to provide our services to you.
We use the following cookies:
Essential cookies
- Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of our website. These essential cookies are always enabled because our website won’t work properly without them. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our website. You can switch off these cookies in your browser settings but you may then not be able to access all or parts of our website.
- User authentication and session management. Facilitating secure user authentication, session persistence, and login functionality to ensure seamless access to personalized services and account features. This includes managing login types, session identifiers, and automatic login mechanisms to maintain user sessions securely and prevent unauthorized access.
- Website functionality and user experience. Enabling core website operations by storing user preferences such as language, locale, currency, and region settings to deliver a customized and consistent browsing experience. This includes managing site navigation, search parameters (e.g., for flights, hotels, or car rentals), and pop-up controls to enhance usability without compromising functionality.
- Fraud prevention and risk control. Supporting security measures by identifying devices, detecting fraudulent activities, and ensuring secure transaction processing. This includes tracking user identifiers and IP addresses for risk assessment, verifying user integrity, and preventing unauthorized modifications to equipment fingerprints or transaction data.
- Technical operations and troubleshooting. Ensuring proper website performance and technical integrity by managing configurations such as image format support (e.g., WebP), application metrics, and service worker operations. This includes facilitating A/B testing for functionality improvements, logging for multi-service correlation, and error detection to maintain operational stability.
- Consent management. Managing user consent settings for compliance with privacy regulations, ensuring that essential cookie operations are transparently communicated and controlled. This includes tracking consent status and display frequency of cookie banners to align with legal requirements.
Non-essential cookies
- Analytical or performance cookies. These allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.
- Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our website. This enables us to personalise our content for you and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
- Targeting cookies. These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. We will use this information to make our website and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests.
