This Cookie Policy explains how European Yachting Vacations uses cookies and similar technologies on mediteraneanyachtcharters.com. It is written for visitors in the United States, including people who reach this site from a US advertising campaign.

A cookie is a small text file stored on your browser. Similar technologies include pixels, local storage, and advertising identifiers. Cookies can be first-party (set by our site) or third-party (set by a service we use, such as Google).

Why we use cookies

Site operation. The enquiry form submits directly to our server. We do not require an account cookie to send an enquiry.
Measurement. To understand how many people visit, which pages they see, and whether the site is working.
Advertising. To measure clicks from Google Ads, understand which campaigns produce charter enquiries, and, where enabled in our advertising account, show relevant ads. Advertising cookies can be used for cross-context advertising, which some US state laws treat as “sharing” or targeted advertising. You can opt out below and through our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information page.

Cookies we use

Google Tag Manager, container GTM-TW74GPNW, is installed on our pages. Tag Manager itself loads other tags. The cookies below are the ones those Google products commonly set. Google may update names or lifetimes; their current documentation controls the exact behavior.

Google Tag Manager (GTM-TW74GPNW). Loads and manages our Analytics and Ads tags. Tag Manager may use a short-lived cookie or local storage to coordinate tags. It is the reason the Google cookies below may appear.
_ga — Google Analytics. Distinguishes unique visitors. Typically kept for up to 2 years.
_ga_<container-id> — Google Analytics 4. Stores session state. Typically kept for up to 2 years.
_gid — Google Analytics. Distinguishes users over a short period. Typically kept for 24 hours.
_gat or _gat_gtag_* — Google Analytics. Throttles the request rate. Typically kept for 1 minute, when used.
_gcl_au — Google Ads conversion linker. Measures ad efficiency on the site. Typically kept for about 90 days.
_gcl_aw and _gcl_dc — Google Ads. Store click information so a later enquiry can be attributed to an ad. Typically kept for about 90 days.
IDE and related DoubleClick cookies (for example test_cookie) — Google Ads / DoubleClick. Used to serve and measure ads, including on other sites, and to limit how often an ad is shown. IDE is typically kept for up to 13 months in the European Economic Area and the UK, and up to 24 months elsewhere, according to Google’s settings.

If you land on the site from a Google ad, the page address may also contain a gclid parameter. That is not a cookie, but we store it with your enquiry so we know the enquiry came from an advertisement.

How to manage or disable cookies
