1. About This Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Webtheworld uses cookies, browser storage, pixels and similar technologies on webtheworld.com and its related pages.
In this policy, “Webtheworld”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the operator of the Site:
Webtheworld
312 W. 2nd St #3658
Casper, WY 82601
United States
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy , which explains how we collect, use and disclose personal information more generally.
Webtheworld is an advertising-supported travel discovery and comparison website. Some content and links may relate to commercial partners or third-party travel providers.
2. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
Cookies are small text files that may be placed on your computer, tablet or mobile device when you visit a website. They can be used to operate website functions, remember preferences, protect forms, measure website activity and support advertising attribution.
We may also use technologies that perform similar functions, including:
- local storage;
- session storage;
- server-side sessions;
- pixels and web beacons;
- advertising and referral identifiers;
- scripts and tags.
Local storage is not technically a cookie, but it can be used to remember information in your browser in a similar way. For transparency, this policy describes both cookies and comparable browser-storage technologies.
3. Technologies Used on the Site
The following table describes the main technologies that may be used on webtheworld.com.
| Technology | Provider | Category | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| cookie_consent | Webtheworld | Strictly necessary | Remembers your cookie choice so the Site can respect your preference and avoid repeatedly displaying the cookie notice. This preference may be stored in browser local storage rather than in a traditional cookie. | Up to 1 year |
| Server session data | Webtheworld | Strictly necessary | Supports temporary website sessions, form processing, confirmation pages, spam prevention and website security where these functions are used. | Browser session |
| Form and security data | Webtheworld or hosting provider | Strictly necessary | Helps detect automated submissions, repeated requests, technical errors, fraud and misuse of forms or website resources. | Session or short-term |
| Taboola / Realize advertising identifiers, where enabled | Taboola | Advertising and measurement | Measures visits and conversion events associated with applicable advertising campaigns and helps attribute actions to a campaign, advertisement or referral source. | Depends on the identifier and campaign configuration |
| Affiliate referral parameters | Webtheworld or featured provider | Affiliate attribution | Identifies that a visitor reached a third-party provider through a Webtheworld link. A provider may place its own cookies after you leave our Site. | Determined by the relevant provider |
A technology described as “where enabled” applies only when that service has actually been activated on the Site. Exact cookie names and durations may change when a provider updates its technology or campaign configuration.
4. Strictly Necessary Technologies
Strictly necessary technologies support functions required to operate and protect the Site. They may be used to:
- remember your cookie preference;
- maintain a temporary website session;
- process a form that you choose to submit;
- display a confirmation page;
- prevent spam, abuse and duplicate submissions;
- protect the Site and hosting infrastructure;
- diagnose errors and maintain reliable page delivery.
These technologies are not used to create advertising profiles. Because they support requested functionality, security or preference storage, they may continue to operate when non-essential cookies are rejected.
5. Advertising and Campaign Measurement
Visitors may reach Webtheworld through advertising campaigns, including campaigns delivered through Taboola or another advertising platform.
Where a campaign-measurement pixel is enabled and the required cookie choice has been recorded, the advertising provider may process information such as:
- the advertisement or campaign that referred you;
- the landing page visited;
- the date and time of the visit or conversion event;
- browser and device information;
- IP address or approximate location information;
- pseudonymous click, campaign or advertising identifiers;
- general interaction or conversion events.
We do not intend to send the contents of contact forms, full names, email addresses, telephone numbers, payment details or passport information to advertising pixels.
Non-essential advertising and measurement tags should not be loaded before the relevant consent or preference has been obtained where required.
6. Affiliate Links and External Websites
Some links on Webtheworld may contain affiliate or referral parameters. These parameters help a provider determine that a visitor followed a link from our Site and may allow Webtheworld to receive compensation for an eligible referral or booking.
Clicking an external link may take you to a website operated by a tour operator, booking service or another third party. That third party may set its own cookies or similar technologies after you leave webtheworld.com.
External websites are governed by their own privacy and cookie policies. Webtheworld does not control cookies placed directly by an unrelated third-party website.
7. Analytics and Performance Technologies
Webtheworld may use analytics or performance technologies to understand general website usage, identify errors and improve page performance.
Where a third-party analytics service uses non-essential cookies or comparable identifiers, it should only be activated after the applicable cookie preference has been recorded.
If a new analytics provider is introduced, this policy and the cookie table should be updated to identify the provider, purpose and applicable duration.
8. Server Logs
Our hosting provider may automatically generate server and security logs when a page or website resource is requested.
Logs may include:
- IP address;
- browser and device information;
- requested page or resource;
- referring address;
- request date and time;
- HTTP status and technical errors;
- security and abuse-detection information.
Server logs are not necessarily cookies, but they may contain technical information associated with a visit. They may be used for security, troubleshooting, service administration and fraud prevention.
9. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Where non-essential technologies are available, the cookie notice should allow you to accept or reject them.
Rejecting non-essential cookies should not prevent you from viewing the principal travel content available on the Site.
You may also delete or block cookies and browser storage through your browser settings. Common browser controls can generally be found at:
- Google Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies.
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
- Safari: Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data.
- Microsoft Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies and site data.
Deleting the stored cookie preference may cause the cookie notice to appear again during a later visit.
Blocking all browser storage may affect form sessions, preference storage or security functions.
10. Canadian Privacy Choices
Where Canadian privacy law applies, we seek to provide meaningful information about the purposes for which cookies and similar technologies are used.
Strictly necessary technologies are used to operate, protect and deliver functions requested through the Site. Where consent is required for non-essential analytics, advertising or behavioural tracking, those technologies should not operate before the relevant choice has been obtained.
Additional interest-based advertising choices may be available through:
- AdChoices Canada
- the privacy and advertising controls provided by the relevant advertising platform;
- your browser’s tracking-protection and cookie settings.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when website functionality, advertising arrangements, service providers or applicable requirements change.
The revised date will be displayed at the top of this page. The cookie table should be reviewed and updated before a new non-essential technology is activated.
