Cookie Policy (EU)

This Cookie Policy explains how Project Cyprus Tours (operated by Z.M. The Project Travel and Tour Ltd) uses cookies and similar technologies on project-cyprustours.com, and the choices you have. It applies to visitors from the European Economic Area and Switzerland, and we follow the same approach for all visitors.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They help a site remember things between pages and visits — for example, keeping a booking in progress or remembering a preference. Similar technologies such as local storage and pixels work in comparable ways, and we refer to all of them as “cookies” in this policy.

2. How this website uses cookies

This website does not use advertising cookies, does not sell visitor data and does not load Google Analytics unless you choose to accept it. We use the following categories of technology:

a. Strictly necessary & functional

These technologies support security, remember your privacy choice and provide a feature you request. They are not used for advertising:

• Privacy preference — local storage key pct_consent_v1 remembers whether analytics is accepted or declined, together with the notice version and time of the choice.
• Cloudflare Turnstile — loaded on enquiry forms to prevent automated spam and abuse. Turnstile may use strictly necessary browser storage or cookies for that security purpose.
• First-party conversion counts — form submissions and WhatsApp clicks are counted on our server without an analytics cookie or persistent visitor identifier. We store the page path, general link context and time, not the WhatsApp message or full WhatsApp link.

b. Analytics—optional

If you select “Accept Analytics”, we load Google Analytics 4 using measurement ID G-4T0V5ETZB7. Google Analytics may set cookies including _ga and a property-specific _ga_<container-id> cookie, normally with a maximum lifetime of up to two years. These help distinguish visits and understand page use. We have disabled Google advertising signals and do not send enquiry names, contact details, message text or submission references to Google Analytics.

If you choose “Use Necessary Only”, Google Analytics is not loaded. You can change your choice at any time through “Cookie Settings” in the footer.

c. Third-party features you choose to use

• Bókun (booking system) — when you use the booking calendar on a tour page, the embedded Bókun widget may set functional cookies needed to process your reservation and payment. See Bókun's own privacy documentation for details.
• Google Maps — our contact page embeds a map showing our office. Loading the map connects your browser to Google, which may set cookies under Google's own policies.
• Google Fonts — the website's typefaces are currently delivered by Google's font service, which involves a technical request to Google's servers when a page loads.

3. Your choices

• You can select “Use Necessary Only” and use the tours, prices, schedules, enquiry forms and information pages without Google Analytics being loaded.
• You can reopen the privacy notice at any time with the “Cookie Settings” button in the footer and change your analytics choice.
• If you prefer not to load the embedded map or booking widget, you can contact us directly by phone, email or WhatsApp instead — all bookings can also be arranged that way.
• You can delete or block cookies at any time in your browser settings, including setting your browser to warn you before a cookie is placed. Blocking all cookies may prevent the booking calendar from working.

4. Your rights over your personal data

Where cookies involve personal data, you have the rights provided by the GDPR, including the right to access the data we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to processing, to receive your data in a portable format, and to withdraw any consent you have given. Details of how we handle personal data, and how to exercise these rights, are in our Privacy Policy.

If you believe your data has been handled unlawfully, you can complain to the Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection in Cyprus (dataprotection.gov.cy).

5. Changes to this policy

If the cookies or third-party services used on this website change, we will revise this page and update the date above. A material change to optional processing may require us to ask for your choice again.
