This Cookie Policy explains how Waypoint Adventures uses cookies and similar technologies on this website. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work — or work more efficiently — and to give the site owner information about how the site is being used.
2. Types of cookies we use
Strictly necessary
These are essential to run the site. They enable core functions like logging in, keeping items in your basket, and remembering your language preference. Without them the site cannot function as intended. You cannot opt out of strictly necessary cookies.
- Session cookies for authentication and cart state.
- Firebase Authentication tokens (only set if you sign in with Google).
- Language preference (
waypoint_lang).
Functional
These improve your experience by remembering choices you make — for example a preferred trip filter or your last-viewed destinations.
Analytics
These help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. Where used, analytics cookies aggregate data (page views, bounce rate, average session length) and do not identify you personally.
Third-party cookies
Some pages embed content from third parties (YouTube videos, Facebook feeds, maps). Those third parties may set their own cookies when their content loads. We do not control those cookies — check the relevant third party's own privacy and cookie policy for details.
3. Managing cookies
Most browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will break login, checkout, and other core features of the site.
4. Changes
We may update this policy as we add or remove third-party tools from the site. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last changed.
