1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Elarvo (“we,” “us,” “our,” or “the Site”), accessible at https://elarvo.blog, uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our travel blog and affiliate website. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains more generally how we use your personal information.

By continuing to browse or use our Site, you agree to our use of cookies as described in this policy, unless you have adjusted your browser or cookie consent settings to disable them.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, improve user experience, and provide information to the site owners.

Cookies may be “persistent” (remaining on your device until they expire or are deleted) or “session” cookies (deleted automatically once you close your browser).

3. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

3.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the Site to function properly. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, security, and access to certain areas of the Site. The Site cannot function properly without these cookies.

3.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Site by collecting information such as pages visited, time spent on the Site, and any errors encountered. We use tools such as Google Analytics to gather this data in order to improve our content and site performance.

3.3 Functionality Cookies

These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make (such as language preference or region) to provide a more personalized experience.

3.4 Affiliate and Advertising/Tracking Cookies

As a travel affiliate website, we use tracking cookies placed by our affiliate partners (including but not limited to Klook, Tiqets, Aviasales, GetRentACar, WeGoTrip, and similar providers) when you click on an affiliate link. These cookies allow our partners to recognize that a booking or purchase originated from our Site, so that we may earn a commission. These cookies typically:

  • Track click-throughs from our Site to the partner’s website
  • Record the referral source and timestamp of your visit
  • May remain active for a set “cookie window” (commonly ranging from 24 hours to 30 days, depending on the partner’s program)

We do not control these third-party cookies directly, and their use is governed by the respective partner’s own privacy and cookie policies.

3.5 Third-Party Embedded Content Cookies

If our Site embeds content from third parties (such as maps, videos, or social media widgets), those providers may set their own cookies. We do not control the placement or use of these cookies.

5. Your Cookie Choices

5.1 Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:

  • Delete existing cookies
  • Block cookies from being set in the future
  • Set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being placed

Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of our Site and limit your ability to use certain features.

5.2 Cookie Consent Banner

If our Site displays a cookie consent banner, you may adjust your preferences at any time by clicking on the relevant cookie settings link, typically located in the footer of the Site.

5.3 Opting Out of Analytics

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

5.4 Managing Affiliate Tracking Cookies

Since affiliate tracking cookies are typically set by the third-party partner’s domain once you click through from our Site, managing these cookies generally requires adjusting settings directly through your browser or the partner’s own opt-out mechanisms, where available.

6. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) feature. Currently, there is no industry-standard approach to responding to DNT signals, and our Site does not currently respond to DNT browser signals.

7. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our data practices. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
