# Cookie Policy

This page explains which cookies www.yachtaris.com uses, why, and how you can change your choice at any time.

## Who we are

Yachtaris is a brand of Crazy Tomato j.d.o.o., Opuzen, Dubrovnik County, Croatia. Questions about this policy: [booking@yachtaris.com](mailto:booking@yachtaris.com) or +385 98 924 6523 (Ivan, also WhatsApp).

## What cookies are

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in your browser. Some are needed for the site to work; others help us understand how the site is used and whether our ads work. We only use the second kind if you agree.

## Your choice

When you first visit, a bar at the bottom of the page asks whether we may use marketing cookies:

- **Accept** – we use the measurement cookies listed below.
- **Decline** – we store only your choice. No measurement, no advertising cookies.

The site works the same either way. You can change your choice at any time with **Cookie settings** at the bottom of every page, or delete cookies in your browser settings.

Until you choose, measurement tools run in Google's consent mode with storage **denied**: they do not set cookies.

## Necessary cookies

These are needed for the site to work and do not require consent.

| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Expires |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `yx_consent` | yachtaris.com | Remembers your choice (accept or decline) | 180 days |

## Measurement cookies (only with your consent)

We use these to count visits, see which pages help people find a boat, and measure whether our Google ads lead to inquiries. We do not sell this data or use it to build profiles for other advertisers.

| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Expires |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `_ga` | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors to count visits | 2 years |
| `_ga_<ID>` | Google Analytics | Keeps the state of a visit | 2 years |
| `_gcl_au` | Google Ads | Connects an ad click with an inquiry sent on our site | 90 days |
| `_clck` | Microsoft Clarity | Recognises a returning visitor in anonymised session recordings | 1 year |

Google and Microsoft may process this data outside the EU under their own data transfer safeguards. See the [Google privacy policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy) and the [Microsoft privacy statement](https://privacy.microsoft.com/privacystatement).

## What we do not use

- No social media plugins or embedded posts that set cookies.
- No advertising cookies from other networks.
- WhatsApp buttons are plain links: WhatsApp only sees your visit if you click them, under WhatsApp's own terms.

## Your rights

You can withdraw your consent at any time (Cookie settings, bottom of every page). For your rights over personal data, see our [Privacy policy](https://www.yachtaris.com/en/privacy-policy/). If you think we handle your data wrongly, tell us first – you can also complain to the Croatian data protection authority (Agencija za zaštitu osobnih podataka, AZOP).

## Changes

When we add or remove a service that uses cookies, we update this page and the date above.
