COOKIE POLICY

1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit our website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, improve user experience, and provide information to the owners of the site.

2. How We Use Cookies

Pelican Ferry uses cookies for the following purposes:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the operation of our booking engine. Without these, features such as logging into your account, adding tickets to your cart, or completing a transaction cannot function.
• Performance/Analytics Cookies: We use these to count visits and traffic sources to measure and improve the performance of our site (e.g., understanding which ferry routes are searched most frequently). This helps us optimize our schedule for routes like Honiara to Gizo.
• Functional Cookies: These enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization (such as remembering your language preference or preferred departure port).
• Targeting/Advertising Cookies: These may be set through our site by our advertising partners (e.g., Google/Facebook) to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other sites.

3. Third-Party Cookies

When you use our online payment system (via our third-party payment processors) or interact with embedded social media content, those third parties may place cookies on your device. We do not control these cookies. Please refer to the respective privacy policies of those third parties.

4. Your Consent (Cookie Management)

You can manage your cookie preferences at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in our website footer. You can also block cookies by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. However, please note that if you disable necessary cookies, you may not be able to access certain parts of our booking system.

5. Updates to this Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology or legal requirements in the Solomon Islands. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting a notice on our website.
