COOKIE POLICY

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites can store on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit them.

Cookies can help websites:

• function correctly;
• remember preferences;
• maintain security;
• understand how visitors use the website;
• measure website performance;
• support booking and payment functionality; and
• where permitted, measure advertising or marketing performance.

Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser, while others remain on your device for a specified period.

2. Who Uses Cookies on This Website?

This website is operated by:

The Tenerife Boat Party
Trading as The Tenerife Boat Party
Email: hello@thetenerifeboatparty.com
Website: https://thetenerifeboatparty.com

Cookies may be set directly by us or by third-party services used on the website.

3. Types of Cookies We May Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required for the website or a service requested by you to operate correctly.

They may be used for purposes such as:

• website security;
• maintaining booking sessions;
• processing checkout steps;
• remembering cookie preferences;
• fraud prevention;
• load balancing; and
• other functionality necessary to provide the website or services you request.

These cookies may be used without consent where permitted by law because they are necessary to provide the service.

Blocking these cookies may cause parts of the website to stop working correctly.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices or provide enhanced functionality.

These may include:

• remembering preferences;
• retaining selected booking information;
• remembering interface settings; or
• enabling optional website features.

Where consent is legally required for functional cookies, they will not be activated unless you choose to accept them.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website.

They may collect information such as:

• pages visited;
• time spent on pages;
• traffic sources;
• device type;
• browser type;
• website interactions;
• approximate location;
• errors or performance problems; and
• how visitors move through the booking journey.

We may use this information to:

• improve the website;
• identify technical problems;
• understand which pages are useful;
• improve the booking experience; and
• measure website performance.

Where these cookies require consent, they will remain disabled until you accept them.

Marketing and Advertising Cookies

Where used, marketing cookies may help us understand whether advertising campaigns lead to website visits or bookings.

They may also be used to:

• measure advertising performance;
• attribute bookings to advertising campaigns;
• limit repeated advertising;
• create advertising audiences; or
• provide more relevant advertising on third-party platforms.

Marketing cookies will only be used where permitted by law and where any required consent has been obtained.

4. First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

First-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set by The Tenerife Boat Party website.

They may be used for functions such as:

• booking sessions;
• security;
• preference storage; and
• remembering your cookie choices.

Third-Party Cookies

Some features of the website may involve third-party services.

Depending on the services enabled on the website, third parties may include providers of:

• payment processing;
• analytics;
• maps;
• reviews;
• social media;
• messaging;
• advertising;
• website infrastructure; or
• embedded content.

These providers may set or access cookies in accordance with their own policies.

We recommend reviewing the privacy and cookie information provided by any third-party service you choose to interact with.

5. Booking and Payment Services

Cookies or similar technologies may be required during the booking process to:

• remember the tickets you selected;
• maintain your booking session;
• support secure checkout;
• prevent fraud;
• confirm transactions; and
• return you to the correct booking page after payment.

Some payment-related technology may be provided by an independent payment processor.

Where cookies are strictly necessary to complete a transaction requested by you, consent may not be required.

6. Maps and Location Services

The website may provide maps, directions or links to mapping services to help guests locate the meeting point.

If an interactive third-party map is embedded directly on the website, the map provider may use cookies or similar technologies.

Where consent is required, the embedded service should remain inactive until the relevant consent has been provided.

Opening an external mapping website may result in that provider processing information in accordance with its own privacy and cookie policies.

7. WhatsApp and Social Media

Our website may contain links to WhatsApp and social media platforms.

Simply displaying an ordinary external link does not necessarily mean that the third-party platform sets a cookie through our website.

However, embedded social media content, tracking technology or interactive widgets may involve third-party cookies.

When you leave our website and use a third-party platform, that platform's own privacy and cookie policies apply.

8. Cookie Consent

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie banner or consent tool.

Where consent is required, you should be able to:

• accept non-essential cookies;
• reject non-essential cookies; and
• manage your preferences.

Non-essential cookies should not be activated before the necessary consent has been provided.

Consent must involve a genuine choice rather than being assumed from merely browsing or scrolling through the site. European data-protection guidance treats consent as requiring an affirmative action.

9. Changing or Withdrawing Your Consent

You can change or withdraw your cookie choices at any time using the Cookie Settings control available on the website.

Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place lawfully before consent was withdrawn.

You may also delete cookies using your browser settings.

10. Browser Cookie Controls

Most browsers allow you to:

• view cookies;
• delete cookies;
• block all cookies;
• block third-party cookies; or
• configure how individual websites use cookies.

The exact method depends on your browser.

Blocking all cookies may prevent some website functionality from working correctly, particularly booking, payment or preference features.

11. Cookie Duration

Cookies may be either:

• Session cookies — deleted when your browser session ends.
• Persistent cookies — remain on your device until they expire or are deleted.

The exact lifespan depends on the purpose of the cookie and the service responsible for it.

Where we ask for consent, we may store your cookie preference so that we do not repeatedly ask you to make the same selection.

The AEPD has previously recommended that cookie consent choices should generally not be treated as indefinitely valid and identifies up to 24 months as good practice for refreshing consent, depending on the circumstances.

12. Cookies Currently Used

At the time of writing, The Tenerife Boat Party does not use any analytics or marketing cookies. The table below reflects exactly what is currently stored on your device, and will be updated if that changes.

Both items above are technically stored using your browser's local storage rather than a traditional cookie, but are included here in line with Section 13 below, since they function the same way and store information on your device. Neither is set for visitors browsing the public site — the Supabase entry only applies if you are logged in as an administrator.

13. Similar Technologies

We may also use technologies that function similarly to cookies, including:

• local storage;
• session storage;
• pixels;
• tags; and
• similar browser technologies.

Where these technologies store or access information on a user's device, we treat them consistently with applicable cookie requirements.

14. Personal Data and Cookies

Some cookies and similar technologies may involve the processing of personal information, such as:

• IP address;
• device identifiers;
• browser information;
• website usage information; or
• advertising identifiers.

Further information about how we process personal data, our lawful bases, retention and your rights is available in our Privacy Policy.

15. International Transfers

Some third-party providers may process information in countries outside Spain or the European Economic Area.

Where personal data is transferred internationally, appropriate safeguards will be used where required by applicable data-protection law.

More information can be found in our Privacy Policy and, where applicable, the privacy policies of the relevant third-party providers.

16. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect:

• changes to the website;
• new technologies or services;
• changes to the cookies used; or
• legal or regulatory requirements.

The latest version will always be published on this page.

The date at the top will be updated when material changes are made.
