HB Travel’s Cookie Policy

Cookie Policy of HB Travel.co.za

This document informs Users about the technologies that help
HBTravel.co.za to achieve the purposes described below. Such technologies allow
the Owner to access and store information (for example by using a Cookie) or
use resources (for example by running a script) on a User’s device as they
interact with hbtravel.co.za.

For simplicity, all such technologies are defined as
"Trackers" within this document – unless there is a reason to
differentiate.

For example, while Cookies can be used on both web and mobile browsers, it
would be inaccurate to talk about Cookies in the context of mobile apps as they
are a browser-based Tracker. For this reason, within this document, the term
Cookies is only used where it is specifically meant to indicate that particular
type of Tracker.

Some of the purposes for which Trackers are used may also
require the User's consent. Whenever consent is given, it can be freely
withdrawn at any time following the instructions provided in this document.

HBTravel.co.za uses Trackers managed directly by the Owner
(so-called “first-party” Trackers) and Trackers that enable services provided
by a third-party (so-called “third-party” Trackers). Unless otherwise specified
within this document, third-party providers may access the Trackers managed by
them.

The validity and expiration periods of Cookies and other similar Trackers may
vary depending on the lifetime set by the Owner or the relevant provider. Some
of them expire upon termination of the User’s browsing session.

In addition to what’s specified in the descriptions within each of the
categories below, Users may find more precise and updated information regarding
lifetime specification as well as any other relevant information — such as the
presence of other Trackers — in the linked privacy policies of the respective
third-party providers or by contacting the Owner.

User ID extension for Google Analytics (Google Inc.)

Google Analytics on hbtravel.co.za makes use of a feature
called User ID. This setup allows for a more accurate tracking of Users by
associating that User with the same ID over various sessions and devices. It is
set up in a way that doesn’t allow Google to personally identify an individual
or permanently identify a particular device.

The User ID extension might make it possible to connect Data from Google
Analytics with other Data about the User collected by hbtravel.co.za.

The opt-out link below will only opt you out for the device you are on, but not
from tracking performed independently by the Owner. Contact the Owner via the
email address provided in this privacy policy to object to the aforementioned
tracking as well.

How to manage preferences and provide or withdraw consent

There are various ways to manage Tracker related preferences
and to provide and withdraw consent, where relevant:

Users can manage preferences related to Trackers from
directly within their own device settings, for example, by preventing the use
or storage of Trackers.

Additionally, whenever the use of Trackers is based on
consent, Users can provide or withdraw such consent by setting their
preferences within the cookie notice or by updating such preferences
accordingly via the relevant consent-preferences privacy widget, if available.

It is also possible, via relevant browser or device
features, to delete previously stored Trackers, including those used to
remember the User’s initial consent preferences.

Other Trackers in the browser’s local memory may be cleared
by deleting the browsing history.

With regard to any third-party Trackers, Users can manage
their preferences via the related opt-out link (where provided), by using the
means indicated in the third party's privacy policy, or by contacting the third
party.

Locating Tracker Settings

Users can, for example, find information about how to manage
Cookies in the most commonly used browsers at the following addresses:

Google Chrome Mozilla Firefox Apple Safari Microsoft Internet Explorer Microsoft Edge Brave Opera

Users may also manage certain categories of Trackers used on
mobile apps by opting out through relevant device settings such as the device
advertising settings for mobile devices, or tracking settings in general (Users
may open the device settings and look for the relevant setting).

How to opt out of interest-based advertising

Notwithstanding the above, Users may follow the instructions
provided by

YourOnlineChoices

(EU and UK), the

Network Advertising Initiative

(US) and the

Digital Advertising Alliance

(US),

DAAC

(Canada),

DDAI

(Japan) or other similar services. Such initiatives
allow Users to select their tracking preferences for most of the advertising
tools. The Owner thus recommends that Users make use of these resources in
addition to the information provided in this document.

The Digital Advertising Alliance offers an application
called

AppChoices

that helps Users to control interest-based advertising on mobile apps.

Consequences of denying the use of Trackers

Users are free to decide whether or not to allow the use of
Trackers. However, please note that Trackers help hbtravel.co.za to provide a
better experience and advanced functionalities to Users (in line with the purposes
outlined in this document). Therefore, if the User chooses to block the use of
Trackers, the Owner may be unable to provide related features.
