What cookies are

Cookies are small pieces of information that a website can store or read through a browser. Similar technologies can perform related functions, for example remembering preferences, supporting security, measuring site performance or enabling third-party features.

Types of cookies that may be used

Strictly necessary cookies

These support functions required for the website to operate securely or remember choices that are essential to a requested service. Where applicable law permits, they may be used without optional consent because the requested function cannot operate properly without them.

Preference or functional cookies

These can remember choices that improve convenience, such as interface preferences. Whether consent is required depends on the purpose and applicable law.

Analytics cookies

If analytics is enabled, these technologies may help understand aggregate use of the website, such as which pages are visited and whether technical problems occur. Where consent is required, analytics should remain disabled until the visitor has chosen to allow it.

Advertising, affiliate or third-party technologies

My Malta Trip contains affiliate links to external travel services. A normal outbound link does not by itself mean that the third party is allowed to place non-essential cookies on MyMaltaTrip.com. If embedded widgets, advertising technology or other third-party tools are later enabled, they may use their own technologies and should be reflected in the site’s consent interface and cookie inventory.

Session and persistent cookies

A session cookie normally expires when the browser session ends. A persistent cookie can remain for a defined period or until it is removed. The duration depends on the purpose and the provider setting the cookie.

First-party and third-party cookies

First-party cookies are associated with the domain being visited. Third-party cookies or technologies may be associated with another provider whose service is integrated into a page. Optional third-party technologies should be controlled according to the consent requirements that apply.

Your choices

Where the website uses technologies that require consent, visitors should be offered a consent mechanism that allows them to accept, reject or adjust non-essential categories. Consent choices should be changeable later. Browser settings can also be used to block or delete cookies, although blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect website functions.

Current cookie inventory

The exact list of active cookies depends on the services configured on the live website. The consent-management interface, once activated, should provide the most current category and provider information. This policy will be updated when analytics, advertising, embedded media, newsletter or other cookie-setting services are added or materially changed.
