Cookie Policy

Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Travel To Dreams Journeys LLC, located at 16 N Boylan Ave, Suite 1, Raleigh, NC 27603, Wake County, State of North Carolina, uses cookies and similar technologies on traveltodreams.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which describes how we handle personal data more broadly. By continuing to use our website after seeing our cookie notice, you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this policy, except where your prior consent is required for non essential cookies and you have not yet provided it.

Cookies help us deliver a reliable browsing experience, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors interact with our content. You can control cookies through your browser settings and through the consent banner on our site (id tdConsentBanner). This policy describes what cookies are, which types we use, how long they last, and how to manage them in major browsers.

What Cookies Are

A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to make sites work efficiently, remember login sessions, store language preferences, and provide analytics to site owners. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, pixels, and scripts that collect information about your device and browsing behavior.

Cookies may be "first party," set directly by traveltodreams.com, or "third party," set by another domain such as an analytics or social media provider embedded on our pages. Each cookie has a name, a duration (session or persistent), and a purpose.

Session cookies expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until you delete them. The expiration period depends on the purpose: essential security cookies may last only for your visit, while preference cookies might persist for twelve months so you do not need to reset options on every return to our vacation planning tools.

Pixels, also called clear GIFs or web beacons, are tiny images embedded in emails or pages that signal when content has been opened or viewed. We use pixels sparingly and in connection with email newsletters only when you have subscribed, to help us understand which stories resonate with travelers interested in destinations we feature.

Types of Cookies We Use

We group cookies into essential, analytics, and functional categories. The exact names and lifetimes may evolve as we update our site; we will refresh this policy when we add new technologies that materially affect your privacy.

Essential cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting privacy preferences, logging in where applicable, or filling in forms.

• td_session: Maintains your session and security tokens while you navigate between pages on traveltodreams.com.
• td_consent: Stores your cookie consent choice from the tdConsentBanner so we do not show the banner on every visit after you agree.
• td_csrf: Helps protect form submissions from cross site request forgery attacks when you contact us or subscribe to newsletters.
• td_route: Assists our hosting layer in routing requests efficiently and maintaining availability during high traffic.

Analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website, which pages are most popular, and whether users encounter errors. Information is typically aggregated and may include approximate location derived from IP address.

• td_ga_uid: Distinguishes unique visitors for internal analytics dashboards we may operate or configure through privacy oriented tools.
• td_page_views: Counts page views and session depth to improve content structure and navigation.
• td_referrer: Records the referring site or campaign parameter so we can measure marketing effectiveness.
• td_scroll_depth: Helps us understand engagement with long form destination guides and legal pages.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies enable enhanced features such as remembering your region, currency display preferences, or recently viewed destinations.

• td_pref_lang: Remembers your selected language where multilingual options are available.
• td_last_dest: Stores the last destination you viewed so we can show relevant suggestions on return visits.

How to Manage Cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser. Blocking all cookies may affect site functionality. Below are general steps for major browsers; menus may vary by version.

• Google Chrome: Open Settings, then Privacy and security, then Cookies and other site data. Choose whether to allow all cookies, block third party cookies, or block all cookies. You can also use "Clear browsing data" to remove existing cookies.
• Mozilla Firefox: Open Settings, then Privacy and Security. Under Cookies and Site Data, select your preferred level of blocking and use Manage Data to remove specific cookies for traveltodreams.com.
• Apple Safari: Open Preferences, then Privacy. Enable "Prevent cross site tracking" and use Manage Website Data to remove cookies. On iOS, use Settings, Safari, and Block All Cookies or manage data per site.
• Microsoft Edge: Open Settings, then Cookies and site permissions, then Manage and delete cookies and site data. Configure tracking prevention levels and clear data for individual sites.

You may also use industry opt out tools where available for analytics or advertising, though we prioritize minimal tracking consistent with our Privacy Policy.

Mobile browsers on iOS and Android offer similar controls, often under Settings, Privacy, or Site settings. If you use private or incognito mode, cookies may still be set for the duration of that session, then cleared when you close all incognito windows, which can affect whether our site remembers your consent banner choice until you accept again.

Corporate networks and school networks sometimes inject proxies or security software that block cookies entirely. If you experience login loops or forms that fail to submit from such a network, contact your IT administrator or reach us by phone at +1 (919) 637-2854 so we can complete your request offline.

Third Party Cookies

Some pages may include embedded content or scripts from third parties, such as maps, video players, or social sharing buttons. Those providers may set their own cookies governed by their policies. We do not control third party cookies and encourage you to review their privacy notices. Where feasible, we configure embeds to delay loading until you interact with them or to use privacy enhanced modes.

Payment processors that handle card transactions when you purchase travel services may set fraud prevention cookies independent of Travel To Dreams Journeys LLC. Those cookies help verify that the person entering card data matches prior legitimate patterns and reduce chargebacks for our Wake County based agency and for you as the traveler.

Social widgets, if present, may set cookies even if you do not click them, because loading the widget can trigger a request to the social network. We minimize such embeds and prefer static links to our profiles where possible.

Do Not Track

Some browsers send a Do Not Track signal. Because there is no consistent legal standard for how websites must respond, we do not guarantee that we will alter our practices solely based on DNT. Regardless, you may limit tracking through browser cookie controls and our consent tools. See also the analytics section above.

Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our practices. We will post the revised policy on this page and update the effective date. For material changes, we may provide additional notice, such as a banner on traveltodreams.com. We encourage you to review this policy when you visit our site.
