Site information · cookies and storage

A note about cookies.

Last updated: 8 November 2026. This notice describes the technologies currently present on Elsewhere Travel and the remaining advertising consent setup.

Optional audience measurement

Cloudflare Web Analytics helps us compare page views and loading performance. It is off by default in this site’s code and loads only after you enable it below. This choice is separate from advertising consent in the InMobi widget. We respect a browser’s Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal by leaving optional measurement off. Hosting and security requests are separate.

What we use

Saved destinations, trip-planning notes, comparison choices and a local page-visit counter use browser local storage. The optional analytics preference is also stored locally. Local storage is not a cookie, but it persists on your device until cleared. The counter measures visits within that browser, not total website traffic. Cloudflare Web Analytics loads only after a separate optional measurement choice, while Cloudflare Pages provides hosting and related security functions. We have not completed an independent browser-by-browser cookie and storage inventory.

External services

Some pages request photographs from external image hosts and tiles from OpenStreetMap's tile service. Those requests can send IP addresses and browser details to the providers. Contact messages are transmitted to Formspree only when submitted. Field-guide pages contain a Supabase-powered review form and can request published reviews from that provider. The form sends review data to Supabase when submitted; the backend's accessibility and storage behavior have not been independently confirmed. These providers' own services may involve cookies or other technologies; we have not independently verified every third-party storage behavior.

How to manage storage

Clear this site's local storage or cookies using your browser's privacy settings. Browser privacy controls and extensions may block analytics or external image and map requests. Blocking storage can prevent saved trips, notes and comparisons from being retained. Elsewhere Travel has installed the InMobi Choice consent-management tag for GDPR and applicable US privacy choices. The property is active. The remote InMobi SDK still reports a validation warning under review; banner visibility alone does not establish that every consent function is correct.

Advertising and consent

Elsewhere Travel includes Google AdSense code to support Google Privacy & messaging and potential advertising if the site is approved. The ad library is now requested only after the consent callback reports a loaded CMP and the required signal for this loader. Unknown or unavailable consent leaves that library unloaded. This additional guard does not resolve the provider’s remote SDK warning or establish compliance with every regional requirement. InMobi Choice is configured with Accept All, Reject All and detailed preferences. If the CMP loads as expected, visitors can reopen its settings from the Privacy & cookie settings link in the footer or its persistent privacy widget. The original Google Privacy & messaging message must be unpublished after verifying this migration to avoid competing consent notices. The CMP does not itself guarantee that Cloudflare Web Analytics, external photographs, maps, or other third-party services are blocked before consent; their technical behavior and legal requirements must be checked separately. An independent check of their storage, consent obligations and data practices is still needed. See How Google uses data for advertising and our Privacy Policy.
