Cookie Policy

Effective date:

This Cookie Policy explains how Voyagepa Thguide may use cookies and similar technologies when you browse voyagepathguide.com. It is written to help you understand the practical purpose of those technologies and the choices you can make about them.

Voyagepa Thguide is an independent English-language New Zealand cruise review, cabin guide, and maritime travel portal. We publish practical information about ships, cabins, onboard life, ports, and itineraries; we do not operate cruises, sell cruises, or act as a booking agency.

01 / Plain language

Cookies are small text files that a website may store on, or read from, your browser or device when you visit it. They can help a website recognise a browser, remember information during a visit, or retain limited information for a later visit. A cookie does not automatically identify you by name; what it can do depends on its purpose, the information connected with it, and your browser or device settings.

This policy also uses the term similar technologies for related browser or device tools. These may include local storage, pixels, tags, or comparable measurement tools that can store, access, or communicate limited information about a browser or device. We use that collective term because the practical questions for visitors are often alike: what the technology does, whether it is necessary, and what choices may apply.

Depending on the category involved and your choices where those choices apply, information associated with cookies or similar technologies may support the following broad purposes:

Site delivery
Helping pages load, operate reliably, and maintain basic security during a visit.
Remembered choices
Retaining limited settings so you do not need to repeat every preference on each page.
Audience understanding
Helping us understand how information pages are used and where visitors may encounter difficulties.
Performance and content
Assessing technical performance and supporting external material where it is used.

02 / Categories

The categories below are practical descriptions of purposes that may apply on an information website. They are not a technical inventory of every cookie, provider, or browser setting, and availability can depend on the features you use.

Essential

Strictly necessary functions

Some technologies may be needed to deliver core site functions, help pages operate reliably, maintain security, remember essential session or privacy choices, or support basic service delivery. Restricting essential technologies can mean that parts of a website do not function as expected. This category is limited to functions connected with operating and protecting the site, rather than unrelated tracking.

Preferences

Preferences and functional choices

Functional cookies may remember choices such as display preferences or settings, helping provide a more consistent experience across later pages or visits. If you disable them, some choices may need to be selected again. Any example of a remembered setting is illustrative only; it does not mean that Voyagepa Thguide offers account-level personalisation or stores travel plans.

Analytics

Analytics and performance measurement

Measurement technologies may help us understand how visitors use pages, identify technical issues, and improve the structure and performance of practical cruise information. Where third parties are involved, reporting may be aggregated or otherwise handled under that provider’s practices. Declining optional measurement may reduce the information available for improvement, but should not ordinarily prevent basic reading of the site.

Third-party content

Third-party and embedded content

External content or links may involve services that use their own cookies or similar technologies when you interact with them. Voyagepa Thguide does not control those third-party practices. External links can take you to other websites, including the official New Zealand cruise directory, whose technology and privacy information is governed by the relevant third party.

These descriptions may be updated as site features or technical services change. Please review this policy periodically; the effective date at the top identifies the current published version, effective from .

03 / Your controls

Site choices

Use available site choices

Where cookie choices are made available through the site’s consent experience, you can use those choices and revisit them when that option is provided. Site-provided controls are one way to manage optional technologies, but they work alongside—not instead of—browser or device settings. The options shown may vary according to the technology involved and the part of the site you are using.

Browser and device controls

Adjust browser or device settings

Most browsers and devices offer settings that can block, limit, delete, or notify you about cookies. The available steps differ by browser, operating system, and version, so consult your browser or device help materials for current instructions. Settings may also need to be managed separately for each browser or device you use, such as a phone, tablet, work computer, or home computer.

04 / External services

External services and updates

External websites and services

Links or embedded material may connect you with third-party websites and services whose privacy and cookie practices are governed by their own policies. Review those policies before providing information to an external service or accepting its technologies. Voyagepa Thguide cannot control third-party policies or browser technologies once you use those services. Official destination resources may be included as useful external references, not as endorsements of booking activity or as a statement that we operate any cruise service.

Policy changes and current version

Current policy effective from .

This policy may be revised to reflect changes in site features, legal obligations, or technology practices. The date at the top tells you when the published version took effect. We encourage you to review this page periodically so you can understand the current information and choices described here.
