Cookies policy

On this website I collect and use the information as indicated in my privacy policy. One of the ways we collect information is through the use of technology called “cookies.” On How to Travel Alone, cookies are used for several things.

What is a cookie?

A “cookie” is a small amount of text that is stored in your browser (such as Google’s Chrome or Apple’s Safari) when you browse most websites.

What is NOT a cookie?

It is not a virus, nor a Trojan, nor a worm, nor spam, nor spyware, nor does it open pop-up windows.

What information does a cookie store?

Cookies do not usually store sensitive information about you, such as credit card or banking details, photographs or personal information, etc. The data they store is of a technical, statistical nature, personal preferences, content customization, etc.

The web server does not associate you as a person but with your web browser. In fact, if you usually browse with the Chrome browser and try to browse the same website with the Firefox browser, you will see that the website does not realize that you are the same person because it is actually associating the information with the browser, not with person.
