Cookie Policy

Last updated: September 2026


This Cookie Policy explains how Visit Finisterre uses cookies and similar technologies on this website, what information they may collect, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.


This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.


1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device when you visit them.


Some cookies are necessary for a website to function properly. Others help website owners understand how visitors use the site, remember preferences, or provide content from third-party services.


Cookies may be:

  • Session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.
  • First-party cookies, which are set directly by Visit Finisterre.
  • Third-party cookies, which are set by external services used on this website.

2. How we use cookies

Visit Finisterre may use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:


Essential cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function correctly and cannot normally be switched off.


They may be used, for example, to:

  • maintain basic website functionality;
  • remember your cookie preferences;
  • provide security and technical functionality;
  • ensure that pages display correctly.

Essential cookies do not require your consent where they are strictly necessary for providing the website or a service you have requested.


Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website.


They may provide information such as:

  • which pages are visited;
  • how long visitors remain on a page;
  • how visitors move through the website;
  • general device, browser or traffic information;
  • how visitors arrived at the website.

We use this information to understand website performance and improve the visitor experience.


Analytics cookies are activated only where you have given the required consent through our cookie banner or preference settings.


Functional cookies

Functional cookies may be used to provide additional website features or remember choices you have made.


For example, they may support:

  • embedded media;
  • language or display preferences;
  • interactive website features.

Some functional services may be provided by third parties and may place their own cookies.


Where consent is legally required, these technologies will not be activated until you have accepted them.


Marketing and third-party cookies

If Visit Finisterre uses advertising, social media, embedded content or other third-party services, those providers may place cookies or use similar technologies.


These technologies may be used to:

  • measure campaign performance;
  • understand interactions with embedded content;
  • provide social media functionality;
  • personalise content or advertising;
  • measure activity across websites.

Marketing and similar non-essential technologies will only be used after you have given consent.


3. Third-party services

Our website may include content or functionality provided by third parties.


Depending on the services currently used on the website, these may include providers such as:

  • Google services, including analytics or mapping services;
  • YouTube or other video platforms;
  • social media platforms;
  • booking, affiliate or travel service providers;
  • embedded widgets or external content providers.

When you interact with third-party content, those providers may process information according to their own privacy and cookie policies.


Visit Finisterre does not control cookies placed directly by third-party services.


Where technically possible and legally required, third-party content that relies on non-essential cookies will remain blocked until the relevant consent has been provided.


4. Cookies currently used on this website

The exact cookies used may change as website services and integrations are updated.


Where applicable, the cookie preference panel provides information about the categories of cookies currently available and allows you to choose which non-essential cookies you wish to accept.


We recommend reviewing your cookie preferences periodically.


5. Your cookie choices

When you first visit Visit Finisterre, you are shown a cookie banner where you can choose to:


Accept All

Allows all cookies and technologies currently enabled on the website.


Reject non-essential

Allows only cookies that are strictly necessary for the website to function.


Manage preferences

Allows you to choose which categories of non-essential cookies you wish to allow.


Your choice will be stored so that we can remember your preference.


You can change or withdraw your consent at any time through the cookie settings available on the website.


Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing that took place before consent was withdrawn.


6. Managing cookies through your browser

You can also manage, block or delete cookies through your browser settings.


Most browsers allow you to:

  • view stored cookies;
  • delete cookies;
  • block all or selected cookies;
  • restrict third-party cookies;
  • clear cookies when the browser is closed.

Please note that blocking essential cookies may affect the functionality of the website.


Browser settings are controlled by the browser provider and may change over time.


7. Embedded content

Some pages may contain embedded content such as videos, maps, social media content or third-party widgets.


Embedded services may collect information about your interaction with that content and may place their own cookies.


Where consent is required, such content should not load until you have accepted the relevant cookie category.


If you reject non-essential cookies, some embedded features may therefore be unavailable.


8. Affiliate links

Visit Finisterre may contain affiliate links.


Clicking an affiliate link may redirect you to a third-party website, where that provider may use its own cookies or tracking technologies.


Visit Finisterre does not control the cookies used on third-party websites.


For more information about affiliate relationships, please see our Affiliate Disclosure.


9. How long cookies are stored

Different cookies remain on your device for different periods.


Some are deleted when your browsing session ends, while others may remain for a defined period.


Where available, details about cookie duration are provided in the cookie preference panel or by the relevant third-party provider.


We aim to ensure that cookies are retained only for as long as necessary for their stated purpose.


10. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when:

  • the website changes;
  • new services or technologies are introduced;
  • third-party integrations change;
  • applicable legal or regulatory requirements change.

The latest version will always be available on this page.
