Cookie Policy

Cookies: Personalized surfing

To ensure that our service is as user-friendly as possible, we use so-called cookies and web beacons.

A “cookie” is a small text file that a web server (for example, the http://www.BalticTravelnews.com webserver) sends to your browser when you visit a website. So-called “session cookies” expire at the end of the browser session and capture your activities during the browser session. In contrast to these, there are “permanent cookies” saved on your terminal, and these can capture your settings or activities on multiple websites.

Web beacons are small graphic data (also known as ‘Pixel Tags’ or ‘Clear GIFs’), which can be included in our websites, apps, applications, and newsletters. They are usually used in combination with cookies to identify users and user behavior. The statements mentioned above about cookies apply accordingly for web beacons; web beacons will in particular not be used in case you objected to the use of the relevant cookie.

Cookies pose no risk to your computer, as they are simply text files and not executable programs.

The cookies on the BalticTravelnews.com website (http://www.BalticTravelnews.com) are used to ensure convenient browsing and for market research and advertising purposes and collect statistics on use. We also use cookies for web tracking, and they form the basis of your personalized content.

Besides so-called “session cookies,” which are deleted when you end your browser session, we place permanent cookies. Cookies are stored until deleted by the user. No personal data is stored in the cookies used by us.

It depends on your browser’s settings as to whether the cookie file is stored or deleted. If the file is stored, our webserver can recognize your terminal. Next time you visit the site or switch between functions requiring you to enter a password, the cookie can save you re-entering information. This is how cookies make it easier for you to use websites requiring user input. Additionally, cookies can help us offer you the most personalized, optimized surfing experience, as long as you permit us to do so.

That is unless you explicitly reject cookies and deactivate them as set out below:

You can set your browser to receive our cookies or use our website without cookie functionality. In the latter case, however, your text entries in our form fields cannot be saved for future searches, and you will have to input your data again when you next visit our website. In this case, we will also unfortunately not be able to present personally tailored content to you.

Your browser may already be set to display a warning whenever it receives a cookie. As the identification cookie must be resent every time an individual page on our website is opened, this warning can be very disruptive. We, therefore, recommend that you set your browser always to accept cookies from http://BalticTravelnews.com/. You can change this setting for individual websites.

Irrespective of saved cookies, for security reasons, you must still log in each time you access areas of our site that require registration.

BalticTravelnews.com also includes the data contents of third parties at BalticTravelnews.com. These third party providers can set cookies while you visit BalticTravelnews.com and, in doing so, can, for example, get the information that you called up on BalticTravelnews.com. Please see the websites of third-party providers to get further information on their use of cookies. Suppose you have decided fundamentally not to provide or revoke your consent (deactivation of cookies) to use cookies, which are subject to approval. In that case, you will only be able to use those features on our website that are guaranteed not to use cookies.
