At SpanishVoyage.com, we use cookies to help the website work properly, understand how visitors use the site, and, in some cases, support advertising. This page explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your choices.
Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. Some are necessary for the site to work, while others help with things like analytics, remembering preferences, or showing ads more effectively.
We want to keep this simple: you should know what is being used, why it is being used, and how to control it. For visitors in Spain and the EU, non-essential cookies should only be used after valid consent, and users should be able to accept, reject, or change their preferences.
How we use cookies
We may use cookies for a few different reasons on SpanishVoyage.com:
- To make the website function properly and keep it secure.
- To remember your preferences, such as language or consent settings.
- To understand how people use the site so we can improve content and navigation.
- To support advertising services, including Google AdSense, if ads are shown on the site.
Some cookies are placed directly by us, and some may come from third-party services we use, such as analytics providers, advertising partners, or consent tools. When third-party cookies are used, visitors should be informed about them clearly in the policy.
Your choices
When you visit the site, you may see a cookie banner asking you to accept or reject certain cookies. Under Spain and EU cookie rules, non-essential cookies should not be set until the user has given clear consent, and the reject option should be visible and easy to use.
You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block or delete cookies, although doing that may affect how some parts of the website work.
If we use Google AdSense, Google may use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s previous visits to this website or other websites. Google says your privacy documentation should explain this and tell users they can manage ad personalization through Google’s Ads Settings.
Cookie categories
Here is the simple version of the types of cookies we may use:
- Necessary cookies: These help the website work and usually do not require consent.
- Analytics cookies: These help us understand visits, traffic, and page performance.
- Preference cookies: These remember settings and improve the browsing experience.
- Advertising cookies: These may be used to show relevant ads and measure ad performance.
If our cookie use changes in a meaningful way, we may update this page and, when required, ask for consent again. Guidance for Spain also stresses that users should be able to withdraw or update consent later, not just once.

Before publishing
Replace info.spanishvoyage@gmail.com with your real email address, and make sure your cookie banner matches what this page says. If you plan to use AdSense, your cookie banner should offer a real accept/reject choice and block non-essential cookies until consent is given, where required.
