What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. They help websites remember your preferences and actions over time, so you do not have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.
Cookies can be first-party, meaning they are set by Seafarer Journey itself, or third-party, meaning they are set by a service we use, such as an analytics provider. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, and local storage, which can also collect information about how you use a website.
- First-party cookies are created by our website and only read by us.
- Third-party cookies are created by external services that we may use for analytics or other functions.
- Web beacons and pixels are tiny images or code snippets that help us understand whether a page was viewed or an action was taken.
- Local storage is a browser feature that stores small amounts of data on your device for similar purposes.
