INTRODUCTION

 

BGA Hospitality LLP and its subsidiaries / affiliates (“Unitrip” or “we”) are committed to protecting the privacy of your personally identifiable information. We advise you to read this Cookie Disclosure Policy (“Policy”) carefully to understand the use of cookies on any of Unitrip’s customer interface channels including its Website, Mobile Site, Mobile App & Offline Channels including Call Centres and Offices (collectively referred herein as “Sales Channels”).

 

PURPOSE

 

We use cookies to ensure that any person who uses our sales channels gets the best possible experience. In this notice we have provided detailed information about how and when we use cookies.

 

WHAT IS A COOKIE ?

 

A cookie is a small text file that is placed on to your device when you visit a website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. It allows us to recognize your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions. Cookies can make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you. Cookies cannot access any other information on your computer.

 

Unitrip advertises on third-party websites. As part of our effort to track the success of our advertising campaigns, we may at times use a visitor identification technology such as “web beacons”, or “action tags”, which count visitors who have come to the website after being exposed to an Unitrip banner ad on a third-party site. We do not use this technology to access your personal information and it is only used to compile aggregated statistics about visitors who come to the website to gauge the effectiveness of our ads.

 

TYPES OF COOKIES USED

 

There are two broad categories of cookies:

 

  1. First party cookies, served directly by us to your device.
  2. Third-party cookies, which are served by a third party on our behalf.


Cookies can remain on your device for different period of time. We use following types of cookies:

 

  • Persistent / Permanent cookies: Persistent cookies helps us recognise you as an existing user, so it’s easier for you to return to our sales channel without signing in again. After signing in, the persistent cookies stay on your browser and will be read when you return to our sales channel. These remain on your computer/device for a pre-defined period.
  • Session cookies: Session cookies only last for as long as the session exists, (they are erased when the user closes the browser).

  • Essential Cookies: We use cookies for security purposes that allows us to block many types of attacks. In addition, we also use cookies that enable sales channels to work efficiently that enables us to understand how people use our products/ services so that we can improve them. Cookies allow our sales channel to remember information about you that changes the way the site behaves or looks, such as your preferred language or the region you are in. Remembering your preferences enables us to personalise and display advertisements and other contents for you.
  • Marketing / Advertising: We use cookies to make advertising more engaging to our users. Some common applications of cookies are made to select advertising based on what’s relevant to you, to improve reporting on campaign performance and to avoid showing ads you would have already seen. Cookies capture information about how you interact with our sales channel, which includes the pages that you visit most.
