COOKIE POLICY

This Cookie Policy outlines how travelbrushkit (referred to herein as “we”, “us”, or “our”) utilizes cookies and tracking elements on www.travelbrushkit.com (the “Site”). This policy is structured to meet statutory transparency standards required within the United Kingdom, the European Union, and the United States, including the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), the EU ePrivacy Directive, and relevant US consumer protection frameworks.

1. Corporate Identity and Data Controller
   The Site and all associated data storage operations are managed directly by travelbrushkit. We act as the primary operator responsible for the deployment of data elements on your terminal equipment. For any administrative clarification regarding this document, please contact our registry office:
   Brand Operator: travelbrushkit
   Corporate Address: 85 Great Portland Street, First Floor, London, England, W1W 7LT, United Kingdom
   Official Correspondence Email: travel@travelbrushkit.com
   Customer Support Telephone: +44 20 7946 3821
2. Operational Modality and Consumer Consent
   To support transparency, our platform implements a dedicated Cookie Notification Banner upon your initial entry to the Site.
   Strictly Necessary Elements: Certain functional tracking components are vital to maintain the fundamental operations of the interface, such as maintaining items within your shopping container or holding your language preference. These are deployed automatically upon navigation.
   Non-Essential Elements: All analytical, operational choice, or preferences tracking items are classified as non-essential. In accordance with UK and European legal guidelines, these elements are entirely blocked by default. We will only deploy non-essential tracking features after a visitor actively manifests consent by engaging the “Accept” function on our visible banner interface. You retain full autonomy to reject these elements without facing reduced core functionality on our Site.
3. Allocation of Third-Party Cookies
   To facilitate orderly commercial transactions and monitor operational risk, our platform allows specific external services to deploy elements on your device.
   Third-Party Processing by Stripe: Our infrastructure integrates transaction components managed directly by our payment handler, Stripe. Stripe deploys third-party tracking components on our platform to handle transaction execution, perform essential fraud risk reviews, and observe structural anomalies during checkout. This tracking is mandatory for processing transactions safely and is handled under Stripe’s independent data handling protocols.
4. Classification and Data Retention Timeframes
   We classify cookies into two structural durations, ensuring data is not held longer than necessary under international regulatory requirements:
   Session Tracking Elements: These are temporary elements that remain operational only during an active browsing period. They are systematically flushed from your cache memory the moment your internet browser application is closed.
   Persistent Tracking Elements: These items remain on your terminal equipment for a specified duration to recall your options across separate visits. In accordance with UK, European, and US guidelines, our persistent components utilize structured expiration periods:
   Functional/Operational Elements: Retained for a standard period ranging from thirty (30) days up to twelve (12) months.
   Analytical and Fraud Detection Elements (including Stripe Risk Data): Maintained for up to twenty-four (24) months from the date of initial deployment, unless manually removed by the user.
5. Managing Your Preferences
   Most modern internet browsers are configured to accept tracking components by default. However, you can adjust your application parameters to decline, alert, or purge deployed elements at any time. Please review your browser manual to modify these properties. Please note that restricting all tracking may prevent the successful execution of purchases through our checkout pipeline.
