At Planticate Travels, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about how your data is used.

This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies on our website, what types of data they collect, and how you can control your cookie preferences. By continuing to browse our site, you agree to our use of cookies as described in this policy.

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small files that websites place on your device to store basic information about your visit. These files allow our site to remember who you are, structure your browsing experience, and improve how our platform functions.

Cookies do not contain personally identifiable information unless you’ve chosen to share it with us.

How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to make your interactions with our site more efficient, relevant, and secure. Here are the main categories of cookies we rely on:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are fundamental to the functioning of our website. They allow you to move around the site and use core features like secure login or form submissions. Disabling them may affect your ability to use certain parts of the site.

Customization Cookies

These store your preferences such as region, language, or layout settings, so we can personalize your experience when you return. It saves you the hassle of setting your preferences every time you visit.

Performance & Analytics Cookies

We use analytics tools like Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website—what pages they visit, how long they stay, and what content interests them most.

This data is used in aggregate and helps us improve the design, navigation, and performance of our website.

Advertising & Marketing Cookies

These cookies are set by advertising platforms such as Google AdSense and Google Ad Exchange (ADX).

They track your browsing habits and allow us to show you ads that are more relevant to your interests. They may also help us monitor the success of marketing campaigns.

Third-Party Services and Cookies

We partner with external platforms to serve personalized ads and gain insight into website usage:

  • Google AdSense: Helps deliver ads that align with your browsing behavior. It may use cross-site tracking to tailor advertising content.
  • Google Ad Exchange (ADX): Similar to AdSense, this platform supports real-time ad auctions and shows targeted ads based on user activity.

These services may set their own cookies on your device when you interact with ads or visit our pages that host ads.

You can manage or clear these cookies through your browser settings at any time.

If you’re visiting from the EU, UK, or other regions where cookie consent is required, you’ll see a banner on your first visit allowing you to accept or decline non-essential cookies.

Your consent will be stored and can be changed at any time through your browser or via our site’s cookie settings.
