What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are
Cookies are small data files stored on your browser or device when you visit topographicaltouch.com (the "Site"). Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, tags, and software development kits. This policy refers to all of them as “technologies.”
Technology Categories
- Necessary — required for security, network management, booking, checkout, account access, fraud prevention, and saving your privacy choices. These cannot be switched off through the consent tool.
- Preferences — remember optional choices such as display, location, language, or other personalization settings.
- Analytics — help measure visits, traffic sources, performance, and how visitors use the Site so it can be improved.
- Marketing — support advertising measurement, audience building, social-media features, or more relevant advertising across websites or services.
The optional categories actually used depend on the tools enabled for this Site. Preferences and analytics technologies may run from your first visit; marketing technologies remain off unless you allow them. You can turn any optional category off at any time, and a Global Privacy Control signal keeps marketing off.
Our Consent Preference
We use a first-party preference record named “cs_consent” to remember whether you allowed optional categories. It stores the consent version, category choices, and the time of your decision for up to six months. It does not contain your booking, payment, or contact information.
Third-Party Technologies
Providers that support payments, embedded content, maps, analytics, advertising, social media, or other Site features may use their own technologies when you interact with those features. Necessary provider technologies may operate to deliver a feature you request. Optional provider technologies are enabled only for an allowed category where required. Each provider handles information under its own terms and privacy policy.
Your Choices
On your first visit, the cookie bar lets you accept all optional categories, reject all optional categories, or choose categories individually. Rejecting takes effect immediately. You can reopen Cookie settings at any time. Withdrawing consent applies going forward and does not automatically remove technologies already stored on your device.
Most browsers also let you view, delete, or block stored technologies. Blocking necessary technologies may prevent booking, payment, account access, or other requested features from working. Because choices are generally saved per browser and device, you may need to set them again elsewhere or after clearing browser data.
Where required, a recognized Global Privacy Control signal is treated as an opt-out of marketing technologies associated with sale, sharing, or targeted advertising. At this time, other “Do Not Track” signals do not have a consistent industry standard.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when our technologies, providers, or legal obligations change. The date at the top shows the latest revision. If a material change affects your consent, we may ask you to choose again.
