Analytics is your choice.
Google’s tag uses Advanced Consent Mode. It loads with analytics storage and advertising signals denied, so it cannot set Analytics cookies or use advertising personalization before you choose. Google may receive limited cookieless consent-mode signals in this denied state. Selecting “Accept analytics” enables Analytics measurement; selecting “Reject analytics” keeps storage denied. Both choices are available in the notice, and you can change them using at any time.
We do not use advertising cookies or enable Google advertising personalization. Rejecting analytics does not affect tour information or enquiries.
| Feature | Current behaviour |
|---|---|
| Consent preference | elafonisi-analytics-consent-v1: a local browser record of your accept/reject choice, valid for 180 days. Used only to remember that choice. |
| Analytics cookies | After acceptance, Google Analytics may set _ga and _ga_6HHS8H6E5S to distinguish browsers and sessions. Cookie lifetime is configured to 180 days without extending it on each visit. |
| Enquiry drafts | A text file is downloaded only when you choose to save it. It remains on your device until you delete it. |
| Photos, fonts and video | Served from this website. The hero video is not a third-party embedded player. |
| Technical requests | The host receives requests to deliver pages and files. Technical logs are separate from browser cookies. |
The hero video
The muted background video may play automatically. You can pause it at any time. Reduced-motion or data-saving preferences show a still image until you choose to play. Loading the film does not contact Pexels; its credit is an ordinary external link.
External websites
Following a link to Way to Crete, Rethymno Tours, Google reviews, Pexels or another website opens that service under its own cookie and privacy policies. This site does not load their booking systems, maps or social widgets in the background.
Your controls
Use and choose “Reject analytics” to withdraw permission. This stops further measurement and clears this site’s accessible Google Analytics cookies. The page reloads if Analytics was running. It does not erase information previously received by Google.
The preference expires after 180 days. Clearing site data or using a different browser means you will be asked again. If your browser blocks storage, your choice may only last for that page visit. Browser settings can also block or delete cookies. Downloaded enquiry files must be deleted separately.
Google’s processing
After acceptance, Google receives visit and device information, such as pages viewed, referral information, browser characteristics and interactions measured by Analytics. Google’s processing may involve locations outside the EEA. Read how Google uses information from partner sites. The Analytics property’s event-data retention is managed by the operator in Google Analytics and is separate from cookie lifetime.
