Cookie Policy

This Policy explains which cookies and similar technologies the balitourus.com website uses, what data they process, for which purposes, how long they are stored, and how you can manage your preferences.

1. Key terms

  • Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser when you visit. They let the site remember your actions and preferences between visits.
  • Similar technologies include browser local storage (localStorage), pixels, and tags that serve functions comparable to cookies.
  • Analytics services are third-party tools (Google Analytics, Yandex.Metrica) that help us assess, in anonymized form, how the site is used.

2. What data we collect

Data reaches us in two ways:

  • You provide it yourself — for example, by choosing your display language and currency, or by saving your cookie consent.
  • It is collected automatically — when you visit, analytical cookies record anonymized statistics: which pages you viewed, how long you stayed, your referral source, device and browser type, and approximate region (by IP address).

Data collected through analytical and marketing cookies is anonymized and is not used to identify you as an individual.

3. Purposes of using cookies

  • to keep the site working correctly and remember your settings (language, currency, theme);
  • to save your choices regarding cookies;
  • to measure our audience and improve the site's usability, speed, and navigation;
  • to show more relevant content and advertising.

4. Cookie categories

Mandatory cookies

Required for the site's basic operation: they store your chosen language and currency, the display theme, and the record of your consent (the bt-consent cookie). Some features will not work without them, so they ca

ot be disabled.

Analytical cookies

Help us measure traffic, average time on site, the most popular pages, and browser type so we can improve the service. For analytics we use Google Analytics and Yandex.Metrica. Enabled only with your consent.

Marketing cookies

Used to show more relevant content and advertising and to limit how often ads appear. We use Google Tag Manager for this. Enabled only with your consent.

5. Third-party sharing

Data from analytical and marketing cookies is processed by the respective services — Google (Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager) and Yandex (Yandex.Metrica) — under their own privacy policies. We do not sell your data to third parties.

6. Storage duration

  • Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies are kept until they expire or you delete them manually. The record of your consent (bt-consent) is stored for about one year, after which we will ask for your choice again.

7. Managing preferences and opting out

On your first visit you can click "Accept all" or "Open settings" and enable only the categories you are comfortable with. You can change your choice at any time — the "Cookie settings" link is available at the bottom of every page.

You can also delete or block cookies in your browser settings, or simply leave the site. Please note that disabling some cookies may affect how the site works; mandatory cookies ca

ot be disabled.

8. Final provisions

We may update this Policy from time to time — the current version is always available on this page. For anything not covered here, please see our Privacy Policy or contact us at info@balitourus.com.
