Cookies and Policies

Travelay uses cookies and similar technologies to help provide, protect, and improve the Travelay Platform. This policy explains how and why we use these technologies and the choices you have.

 A cookie is a small data file that is transferred to your device (e.g. your phone or your computer). For example, a cookie could allow us to recognize your browser, while another could store your preferences. There are two types of cookies used on the Travelay Platform: (1) “session cookies” and (2) “persistent cookies.” Session cookies normally expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser, and can be used again the next time you access the Travelay Platform.

 We also use other technologies with similar functionality to cookies, such as web beacons, pixels, mobile identifiers, and tracking URLs, to obtain Log Data (as described in the Privacy Policy). For example, our email messages may contain web beacons and tracking URLs to determine whether you have opened a certain message or accessed a certain link.

 Why Travelay Uses These Technologies

We use these technologies for a number of purposes, such as:

• To enable you to use and access the Travelay Platform and the Payment Services.

• To enable, facilitate and streamline the functioning of and your access to the Travelay Platform.

• To better understand how you navigate through and interact with the Travelay Platform and to improve the Travelay Platform.

• To serve you tailored advertising (on the Travelay Platform and on third party websites).

• To show you content (e.g., advertisements) that is more relevant to you.

• To monitor and analyze the performance, operation, and effectiveness of the Travelay Platform and Travelay advertisements.

• To enforce legal agreements that govern use of the Travelay Platform.

• For fraud detection and prevention, and investigations.

• For purposes of our own customer support, analytics, research, product development, and regulatory compliance.

Third Parties

We may also allow certain business partners to place these technologies on the Travelay Platform. These partners use these technologies to (1) help us analyze how you use the Travelay Platform, such as by noting the third party services from which you arrived, (2) market and advertise Travelay services to you on the Travelay Platform and third party websites, (3) help us detect or prevent fraud or conduct risk assessments, or (4) collect information about your activities on the Travelay Platform, other sites, and/or the ads you have clicked on. For example, to help us better understand how people use the Travelay Platform, we work with a number of analytics partners, including Google Analytics. To prevent Google Analytics from using your information for analytics, you may install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser by clicking here.

 Third parties may also use such tracking technologies to serve ads that they believe are most likely to be of interest to you and measure the effectiveness of their ads both on the Travelay Platform and on other websites and online services. Targeting and advertising cookies we use may include Google, and other advertising networks and services we use from time to time. For more information about targeting and advertising cookies and how you can opt out, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s opt-out page, the Digital Advertising Alliance’s opt-out page, or http://youronlinechoices.eu. To opt out of Google Analytics for display advertising or customize Google display network ads, you can visit the Google Ads Settings page. To the extent advertising technology is integrated into the Travelay Platform and you opt-out of tailored advertising, you may still receive advertising content. In that case, the advertising content will just not be tailored to your interests. Also, we do not control any of these opt-out links and are not responsible for the availability or accuracy of these mechanisms.

Third Party Social Plugins

 The Travelay Platform may use social plugins provided and operated by third parties, such as Facebook’s login and Google login. As a result of this, you may send to the third party the information that you are viewing on a certain part of the Travelay Platform. If you are not logged into your account with the third party, then the third party may not know your identity. If you are not logged into your account with the third party, then the third party may be able to link information or actions about your interactions with the Travelay Platform to your account with them. Please refer to the third party’s privacy policies to learn more about its data practices.
