Third Party Cookies

In addition to our own cookies, we work with other reputable companies to analyze how our Website is used, and to optimize our Website to deliver an optimum user experience.

The following companies help us achieve this through the use of cookies:

 

Google Analytics

Google Analytics is a service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how users use our website. The information generated by these cookies (including your truncated IP address) is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your, and other users’, use of our website, compiling reports for us on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and Internet usage. Please note that Google only receives your truncated IP address. This is sufficient for Google to identify (approximately) the country from which you are visiting our Website, but is not sufficient to individually identify you, your computer or mobile device.

You can find more information here, or by reviewing Google’s privacy policy.

Google Ads and Google Remarketing

We use the Google Ads online advertising program and Google Remarketing technology, both operated by Google Inc. (“Google”).

For measuring conversion with Google Ads, a conversion tracking cookie is placed when a user clicks on a Destination Dream Weddings advertisement delivered by Google.

Conversion tracking cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. Google uses a different cookie for each Google AdWords customer and there is no consolidation of the cookie data with other data. If you click on one of our Ads and proceed to a page equipped with a conversion tag and the cookie has not yet expired, the conversion is documented. With the help of the conversion tracking cookie we see the total number of conversions and are able to review the performance of our Ads. You can find more information about Google Ads here.

When you click on one of our Ads, a Google Remarketing cookie is placed. This cookie helps to serve our Ads to you at a later time when you browse pages of the Google content network. Remarketing cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. For more information on Google Remarketing, please see here.

To opt out of Google personalized ad serving, refer to the Opting Out section of this policy.
