About Our Cookies

Our Site uses “cookies” to enhance user experience. Cookies are identifiers that transfer to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser to enable our system to recognize your browser and for record-keeping purposes, and sometimes to track information about visitors.

Cookies are a convenient way to carry information from various website sessions, without loading a site’s server with immense quantities of data storage. Storing data on the server without using cookies would also be challenging because of the difficulty in regaining a specific user’s information without needing a login for each website visit.

A web beacon is a transparent image file used to monitor a visitor’s journey around a single website or collection of sites. They are commonly used by sites that use third-party services to monitor traffic. They may be used in association with cookies to understand how visitors interact with the pages and content on the pages of a website.

A cookie that TombstoneTravelTips.com stores on your computer, is a string of information which your browser provides to TombstoneTravelTips.com each time you return to the site. We use cookies to help us identify and track visitors, their use of our website, and their website access preferences.

Google Analytics Cookies

TombstoneTravelTips.com uses Google Analytics to analyze the use of this website. Google Analytics collects demographic and interest data, and generates statistical and other information about website use, by means of cookies. These cookies are kept on your computer. We share this information with Google, which will store and use this information on its servers. Google’s privacy policy is available at: Link Here

TombstoneTravelTips.com uses information from Google Analytics to track the number of visits to the website, browsers and operating systems.

We sometimes, on occasion, may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our website. Click Here to see a selection of those that may be used. These companies use cookies and web beacons in their ads to ascertain how many times you’ve seen an advertisement. If and when we use any of these companies, we share this information with these companies, but do not provide them with any personally identifiable information for cookie or web beacon use, so they cannot personally identify you with that information from our website.

Some third-party advertisements are served by Google. Google’s cookie enables it to serve ads to our visitors based on their visits to other sites on the Web. You may opt out of personalized ads, or specifically detail the ads seen by you – by visiting Google Advertising.

Sometimes we may use personalized ads. You may opt out of personalized ads for over 125 different ad networks. Click Here to do that.

California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

The CCPA applies to any company operating in California, that makes at least $25 million in annual revenue, companies with data on more than 50,000 consumers, or gets more than half its earnings selling consumer data.

The CCPA gives California residents certain new rights over their data. To summarize, they cover 1) the right to know and 2) the right to say no. Thus users are entitled to see what data companies have gathered about them, have that data deleted, opt out of those companies selling it to third parties, and won’t be refused services or charged higher prices if they exercise these rights.

In relation to the CCPA, most importantly here-in: TombstoneTravelTips.com does not sell personal information. Also, TombstoneTravelTips.com has not sold any personal information in the previous 12 months.
