CompareFlights currently sets no non-essential cookies. We set no analytics cookies, no advertising cookies, and no cross-site tracking cookies of our own. There is therefore nothing here for you to consent to, and we do not show a consent banner — there would be nothing for it to manage.
The only storage we may place on your device is a single strictly-essential first-party preference (for example, to remember your currency). It is needed for the site to honour a choice you make, is never shared with anyone, and is not used to track you.
When you click through to a booking partner, that partner may set an affiliate-tracking cookie on its own website so a resulting booking is credited to us. That happens on the partner's site, under the partner's own policy, after you leave compareflights.co.in.
If we ever add analytics or advertising in future, we will activate a consent banner (a consent management platform) first and obtain your consent before any non-essential cookie is set, and we will update this page and our Privacy Policy beforehand.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, smartphone or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work and to remember preferences.
Cookies can be "session cookies" (which expire when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain for a set period or until you delete them). They can be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services ("third-party cookies").
The table below lists everything that may be stored in connection with CompareFlights. The only first-party cookie is strictly essential. We use no analytics or advertising cookies on this site.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| cf_pref | CompareFlights (first party) | Strictly essential. Stores a UI preference such as your selected currency so the site can honour that choice on a return visit. Not used to track or identify you, and not used for analytics or advertising. | Up to 1 year |
| (partner affiliate cookie) | Travelpayouts — set on the partner site | When you click through to a booking partner, an affiliate-tracking cookie is set on that partner's website so any resulting booking is attributed to CompareFlights. It is not set by us and is not present on compareflights.co.in. | Typically 30 days |
| (partner affiliate cookie) | Viator — set on the partner site | When you click through to Viator (tours and activities), an affiliate-tracking cookie is set on Viator's website to attribute any resulting booking. It is not set by us. | Typically 30 days |
This list is maintained by The Media Flow Ltd and is reviewed whenever anything changes. The India edition does not currently run advertising; if that ever changes, we will list any new cookies here and update our Privacy Policy before they are set. If you notice a cookie not listed here, please tell us at [email protected].
You can control and manage cookies through your browser at any time. Removing or blocking the first-party preference cookie may affect your experience — for example, your currency choice will not be remembered.
