Cookie Policy & Privacy Policy

What This Site Collects

Small Ship Antarctica Cruises (small-ship-antarctica-cruises.com) is a static editorial website. We do not operate any user accounts, shopping carts, or registration systems. We collect no personal data directly.

This site may use minimal analytics cookies (such as Google Analytics) to understand aggregate traffic patterns — for example, which pages receive the most visits, and which countries readers come from. These cookies do not identify individual users.

Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

This static site does not set any essential/functional cookies of its own. No login sessions, preferences, or shopping baskets are maintained.

Analytics Cookies

If Google Analytics is enabled on this site, Google may set cookies including _ga, _gid, and _gat. These cookies collect anonymous, aggregated information about how visitors use the site (pages visited, time on site, browser type, approximate geographic region). No personally identifiable information is collected or stored.

Third-Party Links

This site links to expedition cruise operator websites (Poseidon Expeditions, Aurora Expeditions, Quark Expeditions, and others). These are direct editorial links. When you click through to an operator's website, that operator's own privacy policy and cookie settings apply. We have no control over, and accept no responsibility for, third-party sites or their cookie policies.

We do not use affiliate tracking links. Operator links are plain editorial hyperlinks with no tracking parameters appended.

How to Control Cookies

You can control and/or delete cookies at any time using your browser settings. Removing cookies will not affect your ability to read this site, as no functionality depends on cookies being set.

GDPR & Your Rights

If you are located in the European Economic Area, you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to access, correct, or delete any personal data we hold.

We may update this cookie policy from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect any changes. Continued use of this site following any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
