Cookie policy

What this policy covers

This policy explains the small pieces of data, cookies and similar browser storage, that santorinitaxi.com and its booking pages use, and which of them need your consent before they are set. It sits alongside the privacy policy, which covers personal data more generally.

Strictly necessary

Some storage is required for the site to work and does not need your consent. While you are filling in a booking, your route, date, passengers and the steps you have completed are kept in your browser's session storage, so going back, refreshing the page or reopening a shared link does not lose your progress. This clears itself once the booking is finished or the browser tab is closed. Our admin area sets a sign-in cookie for staff only, so a dispatcher stays signed in between pages; visitors booking a ride never receive this cookie. When you reach payment, Stripe and PayPal load their own secure payment forms in a frame and set their own cookies to process the payment and check for fraud. Those cookies are covered by Stripe's and PayPal's own policies, not this one, and are set only once you reach the payment step.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4, run through Google Tag Manager, to understand which pages are useful and where visitors have trouble. This only loads after you accept analytics cookies in the banner shown on your first visit. If you decline, or close the banner without accepting, no analytics cookie is set and no analytics data is sent for that visit.

Managing or withdrawing your consent

You can change your choice at any time by clearing your cookies for this site in your browser settings and revisiting the site, which shows the consent banner again so you can choose differently. Declining analytics does not affect your ability to search, price or book a transfer; every booking step works the same either way.

No advertising cookies

We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies, and we do not share browsing data with any advertising network. Nothing on this site follows you to another website to show you an advert.
