Cookies, tracking technologies and internet-based advertising
What are cookies and tracking technologies?
Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your computer or mobile device when you visit a website and allow a website to recognise your device. There are browser-based cookies, as well as server-to-server tracking technologies.
Why do we use cookies and similar technologies?
We use cookies and tracking technologies to do a lot of different jobs, such as:
- Enhance website functionality and user experience.
- Remember your preferences and settings.
- Analyse website performance and usage trends to improve our services.
- Provide advertisements tailored to your interests based on your interactions with this website.
What types of cookies and tracking technologies do we use?
- Necessary cookies: Essential for core website functions, such as saving bookmarks or using the Trip Planner tool. By using this website, you consent to the use of necessary cookies, as they are required to ensure the website operates correctly. These cookies cannot be disabled.
- Statistical cookies: Help us understand user interactions and improve our website's content and functionality. This information is anonymised or de-identified where practicable.
- Preference cookies: Tailor website elements to your personal preferences, such as recommending tourism experiences or articles you might like based on your browsing behaviour.
- Marketing cookies: Serve relevant advertisements and monitor their performance. These include technologies like the Meta CAPI server-to-server solution.
How can you manage your cookie preferences?
Necessary cookies are required to enable core website functionality and cannot be disabled.
For users in Singapore, only necessary cookies will be enabled by default. Statistical, preference and marketing cookies can only be enabled by specifically selecting ‘accept’ on the website cookie banner.
For all other users, statistical and marketing cookies will be enabled unless you select ‘decline’ on the cookie banner, necessary cookies will be enabled by default (to ensure core website functionality), and preference cookies will only be enabled if you select ‘accept’ on the cookie banner.
No attempt will be made to identify users or their browsing activities except in the unlikely event of an investigation, where a law enforcement agency (or other government agency) exercises a legal authority to inspect Internet Service Provider (ISP) logs (for example by warrant, subpoena or notice to produce).
Data sharing and third parties
Data collected through cookies may be shared with third-party service providers, such as analytics platforms or advertising networks, to improve user experience and monitor performance. We ensure all third parties comply with applicable privacy laws to the extent which we are able.
