What we use
| What | Type | Why | Your choice |

| Your passport choice, checklist ticks and cookie choice | Browser storage on your device (not a cookie) | So the site remembers them | Always on; clear your browser data to remove |
| Google Analytics (cookies named _ga and _ga_…) | Analytics cookies, kept up to 2 years | To count visits so we know which guides help | Off unless you choose “Allow analytics” |
| Google Fonts | No cookies | Displays our typefaces; Google sees your IP address | Needed to show the site as designed |
| Booking partner sites | Their own cookies, set on their sites | To record that you came from us (affiliate tracking) | Set only if you click a booking link; see their policies |
Analytics is switched off on this site unless we turn it on, and even then it only runs after you say yes. We don’t use advertising cookies.
