Privacy and Cookies

This page explains how SeyBooking.com uses cookies and similar technologies, and gives a short summary of how we handle your privacy. For the full detail of what we collect and your rights, please read our Privacy Policy.

Privacy in brief

We collect the personal data we need to arrange and manage your booking, to support you, to keep our records, and, where you allow it, to improve our website and send you relevant travel news. We take payment by bank transfer, so we do not collect or store card details. We are an independent Seychelles company, we are not part of any wider corporate group, and we do not sell your data. You have the right to access, correct, delete and object to the use of your data. Full detail, including the legal bases we rely on and how to exercise your rights, is in our Privacy Policy.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small file placed in your browser or on your device. In this page “cookies” means cookies and similar technologies such as pixels and local storage. Cookies let a website recognise your browser, so it can remember your choices, keep you signed in, and understand how the site is used.

The types of cookie we use

• Strictly necessary cookies: needed for the website to work, to create your account, to sign you in and to manage your bookings. The site cannot function properly without them, so they do not require consent.
• Functional cookies: remember your preferences, such as your language and currency, your searches and the services you viewed, to make the site easier to use.
• Analytics cookies: help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. This includes which pages you view, how you arrived and left, your device type, and interaction details. We use these with your consent, and the insight we gain is aggregated and does not identify you.
• Marketing cookies: used to show you relevant SeyBooking.com offers on other websites, sometimes called retargeting, based on the services and destinations you looked at. We use these with your consent.

Third-party and analytics cookies

We use trusted analytics and advertising providers who may set their own cookies to deliver their services, including Google Analytics. In order to limit collection by Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. To opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies, visit youronlinechoices.com or networkadvertising.org. Cookies set by third parties are also subject to those parties’ own privacy policies.

Web beacons

We sometimes use web beacons, which are tiny image files, in web pages or emails, to understand whether a message was opened or an advertisement led to a booking, and to improve the services we offer. These work in a similar way to cookies.

How long cookies last

The cookies we use have different lifespans, up to a maximum of five years from your last visit for some of them. You can delete cookies from your browser at any time using your browser settings.

How to manage your cookies

You can accept or reject cookies through your browser settings in, for example, Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Edge. Where the settings are found depends on your browser, so use the browser’s help function to locate them. If you reject certain cookies, some features of our website may not work. Opting out of an advertising network does not stop all advertising, it means the ads you see are no longer tailored to your browsing.

Changes and contact

We may update this page from time to time. For any question about cookies or your privacy, or to make a data request, contact us at [email protected]. See our Privacy Policy for full detail on your rights.
