1. What this page covers
This explains what we store in your browser when you visit DreamyTravelGuide.com, and the choice you make in the cookie banner shown on your first visit. It complements our Privacy Policy.
2. Necessary storage (always on)
We save your cookie choice itself in your browser's local storage (not a tracking cookie) so we don't ask you again on every page. This is strictly necessary for the site to remember your preference and doesn't require consent under GDPR.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| dtg-cookie-consent | Local storage | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected non-essential cookies | Until you clear your browser storage |
3. Analytics cookies (only with your consent)
We use Google Tag Manager (container ID GTM-TJMH62MJ) to load Google Analytics and similar tools. The Tag Manager container script itself always loads so it can register your choice, but it runs in Google'sConsent Mode: until you click "Accept all," it's set to block cookies and send only limited, cookieless signals — no analytics cookies, and no data tied to you, are set before you consent. Clicking "Accept all" updates that signal to allow full analytics cookies; "Reject non-essential" keeps it blocked.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes unique visitors | ~2 years |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics | Persists session state | ~2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors within a 24-hour window | ~24 hours |
The exact cookies set depend on which tools are configured inside Google Tag Manager at any given time — this table reflects Google Analytics' standard cookies as a reference, since that's the most likely tool we'll use.
4. Audience-growth cookies (Grow.me / Mediavine)
We use the Grow.me "faves" widget, provided by Mediavine, to show a follow/save prompt and recommend related content across sites that use the same widget. Unlike our analytics tools, Grow.me is installed the way Mediavine specifies and loads on every visit — Mediavine manages consent for personalized matching on their own end, through their account sign-up flow and their own privacy practices, rather than through our banner.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Various (set by faves.grow.me) | Grow.me / Mediavine | Remembers followed sites/content and personalizes recommendations | Varies — see Mediavine's own privacy policy |
For the current list of cookies Grow.me sets and how Mediavine processes this data, seeMediavine's Privacy Policy.
5. Changing your choice
Click "Cookie preferences" in the footer of any page to reopen the banner and change your decision at any time. You can also block or delete cookies directly in your browser settings, though this may affect how some sites function.
