What are cookies?
Cookies are small files that are placed on your computer when you visit a website. They can be used by websites for many different purposes, such as remembering your login details when you visit again or remembering the contents of your shopping cart when you buy a product online.
We don't use cookies of this kind, but we do use the following:
Google Analytics
Google Analytics: Like millions of websites around the world, Nature Travels uses Google Analytics to give us information about traffic to our website. Examples of the kind of information Google Analytics tells us include what phrases or words someone typed when searching for our site, what pages they visited and how long they spent looking at each page. This information helps us to understand what our customers are looking for so that we can design our website and structure our information to help them find it more easily.
Nature Travels uses only the basic form of Google Analytics. We do not collect any personal information - in addition, we use the AnonymizeIP tag to further anonymise data. No sensitive or personal information is passed to us through Google Analytics, but we might for example receive information about the general area you are browsing from (e.g. London) or the browser you are using to look at our site (e.g. Chrome).
We do also use Google Remarketing tags, which recognise that you have visited our website and through which you may subsequently see display ads for Nature Travels when browsing the web.
Plugins
To improve the experience of visiting our site, we use plugins from other websites in certain parts of the site. These are:
- YouTube/Vimeo/Instagram: To display videos of our experiences.
Buying insurance through Sports Cover Direct
On our insurance page, you will see an option for buying travel/activity insurance through Sports Cover Direct. When you click through to the Sports Cover Direct website from this page, a cookie is placed on your computer which tags that you have come from the Nature Travels website. If you subsequently make a purchase, the system will recognise that you came from the Nature Travels website and we receive a small commission on the value of your purchase.
