Cookie Policy
Last updated: May 2026. This Cookie Policy explains how Raltuv Exotic Island Travel Ltd. (“Raltuv,” “we,” “us”), located at 39 Chestnut St, Ottawa, uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember preferences, keep sessions secure, and understand how pages are used. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags that may record how you interact with emails or pages. This policy uses “cookies” to refer to cookies and comparable tools unless we specify otherwise.
2. Why we use cookies
We use cookies to enable core site functions, remember choices you make during a session, measure aggregated traffic patterns, and improve content relevance for island travel clients. We do not use cookies to sell personal information. We do not deploy cookies for cryptocurrency tracking, gambling advertising, adult content networks, or unlicensed financial product remarketing. Our forms do not require cookies to submit, though disabling certain cookies may limit optional conveniences such as remembered language preferences if we add them in future.
3. Types of cookies we may use
Strictly necessary cookies support navigation, security, and load balancing. They are typically session-based and expire when you close your browser. Performance cookies collect anonymous statistics about page views, referral sources, and error rates so we can fix broken links and improve mobile layout. Functional cookies remember non-sensitive preferences you select, such as collapsed FAQ sections during a visit. Marketing cookies, if ever introduced, would be used only with appropriate consent and would relate to Raltuv services—not third-party product categories prohibited on our site. As of 2026 our primary site relies mainly on necessary and basic performance cookies from hosting and analytics providers we configure with data minimization settings where available.
4. First-party and third-party cookies
First-party cookies are set by raltuv.com or the domain serving our site. Third-party cookies may be set by analytics, embedded maps, or messaging links when you choose to interact with them. For example, opening a Google Maps link from our footer may place cookies under Google’s policy. WhatsApp and Viber links similarly fall under those platforms’ rules once you leave our site. We encourage you to review third-party policies before enabling optional integrations.
5. Duration
Session cookies expire when you end the browsing session. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until you delete them. We aim to keep persistent cookie lifetimes as short as practical for their purpose, often between thirty days and twelve months for analytics, unless a longer period is required for security logs. Retention schedules may be updated when we change hosting providers.
6. Managing cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings, including blocking all cookies or deleting existing ones. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the site from functioning correctly. Most browsers offer private or incognito modes that limit storage after you close the window. Mobile device settings may also restrict cross-app tracking independent of our website. Instructions are available from your browser vendor’s help pages. If we implement a consent banner in a jurisdiction that requires it, your choices there will override non-essential cookies until you change preferences.
7. Analytics
We may use privacy-oriented analytics to count visits and popular service pages such as Island Retreat or Lagoon Expedition descriptions. IP addresses may be truncated before storage. We do not use analytics to establish hidden profiles sold to advertisers. Reports are viewed by authorized Raltuv staff for planning webinars, office hours, and seasonal capacity discussions with partners.
8. Do Not Track
Some browsers send Do Not Track signals. There is no uniform industry standard for responding. We currently do not alter cookie practices solely based on DNT signals, but we limit non-essential tracking by default where feasible and honor explicit consent choices when legally required.
9. Updates
We may revise this Cookie Policy when we add features, change providers, or respond to legal developments. The “Last updated” date will reflect revisions. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance for non-essential cookies only where permitted without fresh consent; otherwise we will request consent again.
