Cookie Policy

Overview

This Cookie Policy explains how FlySearchSky uses cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies when you visit or use our website. These technologies help us operate the site, keep forms and support tools working, protect against fraud, remember choices you make, and understand how visitors use our pages.

This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions. If a specific law in your location gives you greater rights or requires a different consent standard, we will apply those requirements where applicable.

What these technologies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your browser or device. Similar technologies can include SDKs, tags, pixels, server-side identifiers, and local storage entries. For simplicity, we refer to all of these in this policy as “cookies,” unless a specific distinction matters.

Some cookies are first-party cookies set by our website. Others may be set by carefully selected service providers that support functions such as analytics, fraud prevention, payment processing, advertising measurement, or customer support.

Categories of cookies we may use

Strictly necessary cookies. These are used to keep core website functions operating, such as page navigation, session continuity, checkout flow integrity, fraud screening support, load balancing, security controls, and remembering whether you accepted or declined our cookie banner. Without these cookies, parts of the site may not work properly.

Functional cookies. These help remember choices such as support interactions, basic preferences, or form continuity where available, so that you do not have to re-enter the same information every time you move between steps.

Analytics and performance cookies. These help us understand page usage, diagnose technical issues, measure site performance, improve conversion flows, and reduce friction in search and checkout experiences.

Advertising and measurement cookies. If enabled, these may be used to measure ad performance, attribute conversions, and improve campaign effectiveness. For example, if we use Microsoft Advertising Universal Event Tracking (UET), Microsoft may collect or receive information from our website in connection with ad measurement, remarketing, conversion attribution, and campaign optimization, subject to applicable law and consent requirements.

How we use cookies on this site

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• keep the website available, stable, and secure;
• remember cookie preferences and other limited user choices;
• support flight search, checkout, and post-booking flows;
• detect suspicious activity, abuse, or fraud;
• measure page usage and improve site speed and usability;
• evaluate the effectiveness of advertising campaigns where permitted; and
• support customer service tools such as live chat or callback workflows.

Microsoft Advertising, UET, and similar tools

If we use Microsoft Advertising technologies, including UET and related consent-mode features, those tools may help us understand whether an ad led to a visit, quote request, booking step, or other defined conversion action. Microsoft’s own materials state that advertisers using UET must maintain a prominent privacy policy and disclose that Microsoft collects or receives personal data from users or the advertiser to provide Microsoft Advertising, with a link to the Microsoft Privacy Statement.

Where consent is required by applicable law, we intend to provide and honor the appropriate consent signal before activating advertising cookies or comparable tracking. In regions such as the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, Microsoft also requires consent signaling for certain implementations. You can learn more in the Microsoft Privacy Statement.

Consent and your choices

When required, we present a cookie banner or similar notice so you can accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice may be stored in a cookie such as our consent preference cookie so the site remembers your selection on future visits.

You can also manage cookies through your browser or device settings. Most browsers let you review, block, or delete cookies. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of the site, including booking, account recovery, support, or checkout-related functions, to stop working correctly.

Do Not Track and browser-level controls

Some browsers offer “Do Not Track” or similar privacy controls. Because there is not yet a single universal standard for interpreting all of these signals across every technology, our response may depend on the legal requirements in the visitor’s jurisdiction and the specific tools deployed on the page. Where applicable law requires recognition of an opt-out preference signal, we will process it in accordance with that law.

Retention

Different cookies last for different time periods. Some are session cookies that expire when you close your browser. Others remain for a longer period so that settings, measurement preferences, or fraud and security controls continue to function. Retention depends on the purpose of the cookie, our operational needs, and applicable legal requirements.

Updates to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as our website, legal obligations, service providers, or advertising and analytics practices change. We will post the updated version here and revise the “Last updated” date above.
