Legal information

Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Sailrout Einsider may use cookies and related technologies when you visit sailrouteinsider.com. We are an independent English-language New Zealand cruise guide and informational portal, not a cruise operator, booking agency, port authority, or official cruise-line service.

Effective date: Applies to website visits

How to use this policy

This policy is organised around cookie types, practical purposes, available controls, third parties, and updates. You can read it in order or use the contents below to move directly to the topic that matters to you.

What cookies and similar technologies are

Cookies in plain English

Cookies are small text files that a browser or device can store or read to help a website remember information about a visit. Some work only while a browser session is open, while others may remain for a defined period because of the task they support. A cookie does not automatically tell us your real-world identity; it is usually used to recognise a browser, a setting, or a technical state rather than to identify you by name.

Related technologies

Where used, similar tools may include local storage, pixels, tags, and comparable browser or device technologies. They can support functionality, help measure how pages are used, or remember choices. In this policy, we use the word “cookies” as a convenient umbrella term unless a distinction is important. These examples are intended to make the language practical, not to suggest that every listed technology is always active on the site.

Cookies we may use and why

Cookie categories can have different practical purposes. The descriptions below explain the kinds of technologies that may be used in a clear, non-technical way; they do not create a list of fixed vendors, cookie names, or retention periods.

Strictly necessary technologies

Essential operation

Some technologies may be needed to provide core website functions, help keep pages secure, preserve basic session state, or remember a privacy-related choice where applicable. They are generally not used for promotional profiling. If you limit or disable them, parts of the website may not function correctly or may need to re-check information during a visit.

Preference technologies

Settings where offered

Preference technologies may remember choices such as language, display, accessibility-related preferences, or similar site settings when those functions are offered. Their purpose is to reduce repeated selection on later visits. If you remove or block them, a saved choice may reset and you may need to make it again when you return.

Analytics and performance technologies

Optional where required

Analytics or performance technologies may help us understand aggregate page use, navigation patterns, technical performance, and whether guide content is useful. Depending on the service and configuration, this information may be aggregated or pseudonymous. Where consent is required for optional technologies, they should be used subject to applicable consent requirements. We do not identify a particular analytics provider, advertising pixel, heat-map service, or cross-site tracking programme in this policy.

Embedded and third-party content technologies

External context

Content or tools supplied by another provider may place or read technologies when you interact with them. Examples can include externally hosted media, maps, or links when such content is provided. An external link may also take you to another organisation’s environment. Those technologies and practices are governed by the relevant provider’s notices; see Third parties and external destinations for more detail.

Your choices and browser controls

Adjust browser or device settings

Most browsers and many devices provide settings that let you view, delete, block, or receive notice about cookies. Because instructions can change, consult the help material for the browser or device you use. Depending on the browser, controls may apply broadly to cookies or may be available for individual websites.

  1. Locate the privacy, security, or site-data settings in your browser or device.
  2. Review the cookies or site-data controls available to you.
  3. Select the setting that best reflects your preferred level of access, notice, deletion, or blocking.

Third parties and external destinations

Third-party services

A third party may operate its own technologies and process information under its own cookie notice or privacy policy when its service is embedded or used from this site. Sailrout Einsider does not control a third party’s independent policy or browser technologies. Before or when using a third-party service, it is sensible to review the information supplied by that provider.

  • Check the identity of the provider operating the service or destination.
  • Read its cookie information and privacy notice where available.
  • Review the controls or choices that provider makes available to you.

Policy updates

Sailrout Einsider may update this Cookie Policy when our practices, technologies, or legal obligations change. The current version will display its effective date at the top of this page, so you can see the document reference that applies when you read it. If you want to stay informed, please review this policy periodically rather than relying on an earlier copy.
