Cookie Information

When using our web application (https://app.vacationtracker.io/) or visiting our website (https://vacationtracker.io/), small text files, known as cookies, are sent to the devices you are using and will be stored there. Your web browser stores them either at our request or the request of a third party whose services we use.

Cookies are no threat for your computer, tablet or smartphone. The cookies created by this website do not contain any personal information that could be used to identify the user.

Third-party cookies can usually be managed by the tools provided by those parties. Some of such tools are available here:

We do not sell the personal information of Consumers We actually know are less than 16 years of age, unless We receive affirmative authorization (the “right to opt-in”) from either the Consumer who is betw een 13 and 16 years of age, or the parent or guardian of a Consumer less than 13 years of age. Consumers who opt-in to the sale of personal information may opt-out of future sales at any time. To exercise the right to opt-out, You (or Your authorized repre sentative) may submit a request to Us by contacting Us.

If You have reason to believe that a child under the age of 13 (or 16) has provided Us with personal information, please contact Us with sufficient detail to enable Us to delete that information.
