Cookies

 

In order for the website www.livemeranocamping.com to function properly, we sometimes place small files - so-called cookies - on your device. This is common for most websites.

What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that a web portal leaves on your computer, tablet computer or smartphone when you visit it. It allows the portal to "remember" certain entries and settings (e.g. login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you do not need to make these settings again each time you visit and navigate the portal

 

How do we use cookies?

Settings

These cookies are used on our websites to store website display information, such as your preferred language or region. For example, if your region has been saved, a website may display the local weather forecast or local traffic news. You can also use these cookies to personalize the font size and style and other areas of the website.

If you lose the information in a setting cookie, using the website might be more cumbersome, but it usually doesn't cause the website to fail.

Most Google users have a preference cookie called "PREF" in their browsers. A browser sends this cookie to Google sites with requests. The PREF cookie may store your preferences and other information, including your preferred language (e.g., English), how many search results you want to see per page (e.g., 10 or 20), and whether you want the Google SafeSearch filter to be enabled.

Security

We use security cookies to authenticate users, prevent fraudulent use of credentials and protect user information from unauthorized access.

For example, we use SID and HSID cookies, which record a user's Google Account ID and last sign-in time in digitally signed and encrypted form. The combination of these two cookies allows us to block many types of attacks. For example, we stop attempts to steal information from forms you fill out on websites.

Processes
Process cookies help a website to react correctly and provide the expected services. This includes navigating through web pages and accessing protected website areas. Without these cookies, a website will not function properly.

For example, we use a cookie called "LBCS" which in Google Docs allows multiple documents to be opened in one browser. If this cookie is blocked, Google Docs will not be able to run properly.

Advertising
We use cookies to make ads more appealing to users and more valuable to publishers and advertisers. Cookies are typically used to select user-relevant ads, improve campaign performance reporting, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads more than once.

Google uses cookies, such as the PREF, NID or SID cookie, to personalize ads in Google products such as Google Search. For example, we use cookies to record your most recent searches, your previous interactions with an advertiser's ads or search results, and your visits to an advertiser's website. This allows us to provide you with personalized advertising on Google.

We also use cookies for ads that we serve across the web. Our most important ad cookie for non-Google sites is called an "ID". It is stored in browsers under the domain doubleclick.net. We also use other cookies, such as "_drt_", "FLC" and "exchange_uid".

Sometimes a cookie is set for the domain of the website you are visiting. Our DoubleClick product may set a cookie named "__gads" for the domain of the website you visit.

Other Google products, such as YouTube, may also use DoubleClick cookies to serve more relevant ads. Learn more about ads and YouTube.

Google also uses conversion cookies, primarily to help advertisers determine how many of the people who click on their ads end up buying their products. These cookies allow Google and the advertiser to determine that you clicked on the ad and then visited the advertiser's website. Conversion cookies are not used by Google to target interest-based ads and are only stored for a limited period of time. These cookies are generally set in the googleadservices.com domain or in the google.com/ads domain. Conversion cookie data may also be used in conjunction with your Google Account to associate conversion events with your various devices. However, only anonymous conversion data extracted from these cookies is shared with advertisers.

Some of our cookies can also be used to measure conversion events. For example, DoubleClick and Google Analytics cookies can be used for this purpose and placed in the domain of the website you visit.

Session status

Websites often collect information about how users interact with a website. This includes which pages users visit most often and whether they receive error messages from certain pages. We use these so-called "session status cookies" to optimize our services and thus improve surfing for our users. However, blocking or deleting these cookies does not affect the use of the website.

These cookies can also be used to anonymously measure the effectiveness of PPC (pay per click) and affiliate ads.

For example, we use a cookie called "recently_watched_video_id_list" to help YouTube track the videos last viewed in a particular browser.

Analytics
Google Analytics is Google's analytics tool that gives website and app owners insights into how their users interact with the resources they offer. Google Analytics may use certain cookies to collect data and share website usage statistics without obtaining information that would make individual users personally identifiable to Google.

In addition to sharing usage statistics, the Google Analytics pixel tag, along with some of the advertising cookies described above, may also help to deliver more relevant ads within Google products such as Google Search and across the web.
