Cookies and browsing

A straightforward guide to the website

This page explains the behaviour of chefinenary.com in your browser. It covers the difference between a page interaction, cached files and a conversation started through a contact link. It should be read alongside the privacy policy, which describes the information you may choose to provide when asking about a cruise.

1. Cookies and other browser storage

A cookie is a small item associated with a domain that a browser may keep and return with later requests. Local storage and session storage are other ways for scripts to retain information on a device. The browser’s file cache has a different role: it can reuse downloaded resources such as photographs and style sheets. The presence of a cached image is not, by itself, a customer account or a personalised travel profile.

2. The interactions on these pages

The site script controls the mobile navigation and the travel-mood buttons on the home page. The buttons let you compare different ways of thinking about a holiday. Their selection is kept only in the current page’s memory and is not saved for a later visit. Neither feature saves a travel profile or creates a unique visitor identifier. A separate notice on the home page explains the site’s use of browser storage.

Your notice preference

The cookie notice appears on the home page until you close it with the “Got it” button. This saves a simple dismissal preference in local storage on your device, so the notice can stay closed on later visits. The preference has no visitor identifier, contains no travel details and is not sent by the site script to a server. It stays until you clear the site’s browser data. Closing this informational notice does not activate advertising, analytics or any optional tracking. If storage is blocked, the notice can still be closed for the current page and may reappear on a later visit.

3. Questions, images and page display

The frequently asked questions use the browser’s built-in disclosure elements. Opening an answer does not activate a third-party service. Photographs are supplied as JPG files within the website; some are downloaded as you approach their position on the page. Browser caching settings may allow a later visit to reuse these files. Clearing the cache may cause them to be downloaded again without affecting a phone conversation made separately.

4. External tools and connections

There are no embedded maps, video players, social feeds or remote font files in the supplied pages. The website does not include an advertising platform, tracking pixel or audience measurement package. Links to public guidance open the relevant external website only when selected. Those services apply their own policies. Hosting settings, browser extensions and subsequently added integrations can operate independently of the files described here.

5. Using the telephone links

A call link provides a telephone number to an application associated with calling on your device. Depending on its configuration, the device may ask what application to use or show a confirmation screen. Selecting the link does not send the website a completed enquiry. If the link is unsupported, you can copy or dial the displayed number using your normal phone service.

6. Managing your browser settings

Most browsers provide settings for inspecting or deleting website data, clearing cached files and restricting resources. Look for the entry associated with chefinenary.com. The available settings and their names vary. Private browsing can change what remains on the device after a session, but it does not remove the requests needed to receive a webpage. Restricting all scripts may affect the convenience of the mood selector or mobile navigation.

7. Reporting something unexpected

If you see a behaviour that does not match this description, call +61 2 9947 8000 and identify the page and browser involved. A general description is usually a better starting point than a screenshot containing unrelated private information. New functions involving storage or tracking should be explained with their purposes and any relevant choices before activation. This description does not treat continued browsing as agreement to undisclosed future tools.
