GhoomGo Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website. They act as a memory, allowing the site to recognize your device on future visits.

They're widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the site owners. They help remember your preferences (like language or currency), keep you logged in (if applicable), and understand how you use the site. Similar technologies like web beacons or pixels perform related functions.

How Cookies Work

When you visit GhoomGo, our servers send cookies to your browser, which stores them on your device. These cookies help us:

• Remember your search preferences and travel history
• Provide personalized flight and hotel recommendations
• Improve website performance and user experience
• Analyze site usage to enhance our services

We use cookies for several key reasons to enhance your travel experience:

• Essential Operations: To run the core search functions, compare travel options, maintain security, and ensure the site works correctly.
• Preferences & Functionality: To remember your choices (like currency, language, last search) and provide a smoother, more personalized experience.
• Performance & Analytics: To analyze how users interact with GhoomGo (e.g., popular pages, loading times, errors) so we can improve performance and usability. We use tools like Google Analytics for this, typically with anonymized or aggregated data.
• Relevant Advertising: To show you travel-related ads that might interest you, both on our site and potentially on others (retargeting). This helps support our service and often involves sharing pseudonymous identifiers with ad partners.

Travel-Specific Benefits

As a travel aggregator, cookies help us provide you with:

• Personalized flight and hotel recommendations
• Saved search preferences and travel history
• Currency and language preferences
• Improved search results based on your behavior

Cookies can be categorized based on their purpose and duration:

1. Strictly Necessary Cookies: Essential for website operation (e.g., searching, security). You cannot opt-out of these as the site won't function without them.
2. Functionality Cookies: Remember your choices to provide enhanced personalization (e.g., language, currency settings).
3. Performance Cookies: Collect anonymous data on how the site is used to help us improve it (e.g., Google Analytics).
4. Targeting/Advertising Cookies: Track browsing activity to deliver relevant ads. Often placed by third-party ad networks.

• Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser
• Persistent Cookies: Remain on your device for a set period or until manually deleted
• First-Party Cookies: Set directly by GhoomGo
• Third-Party Cookies: Set by our partners and service providers

You can find more specific details about the cookies used through our cookie settings tool or by inspecting your browser's developer tools.

As a travel aggregator, we work with many partners. When you use GhoomGo or click through to a travel provider's site (like an airline, hotel, or booking agency), these third parties may also place cookies on your device.

This includes:

• Travel Providers: Airlines, Hotels, OTAs, Car Rentals
• Analytics Providers: Google Analytics, Hotjar, Mixpanel
• Advertising Networks: Google Ads, Facebook Ads, Display Networks
