Our goal is to consistently provide our visitors with the most up-to-date and relevant information online. By understanding what our visitors are interested in and are seeking, we can provide the most relevant content. We never share data with third parties, and we do not track visitors individually; all tracking is done on a completely anonymous basis.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that most websites store on the devices users access the internet with. Users have full control over cookie storage, as they can restrict or disable it through their browser settings.
Types of cookies
1. Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies enable the use of essential features necessary for the website’s proper functioning. Without these cookies, the services you intend to use on this website would not function properly (e.g. managing cookie preferences, displaying pop-up windows, or operating plugins that enhance website accessibility for all users, and similar).
2. Functional cookies
These cookies collect information about how users interact with the website to improve the overall user experience. For example, they enable the display of content from external sources, such as videos or images from platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and similar.
3. Statistical cookies
These cookies store anonymised data about your activity on www.tasteslovenia.si, which the Slovenian Tourist Board uses to improve the user experience for future visitors to the portal.
4. Segmentation cookies
These cookies enable us to track your activity on specific content within the website, allowing us to tailor and improve the quality of content that interests you. They record data such as impressions of notifications received and link clicks to make content more relevant through profiling, ensuring you receive the most engaging and relevant material.
5. Advertising cookies
These cookies enable us to occasionally show you ads on other websites that are tailored to your interests. They are used to record and store impressions of notifications received and clicks on links in messages received, allowing us to display advertising content on topics you have previously shown interest in (remarketing).
As the Slovenian Tourist Board aims to deliver the highest quality and most relevant advertising content, we would like to re-advertise topics that you have previously shown interest in. These preferences apply to advertisements displayed through Facebook services, including Facebook and Instagram, as well as through web applications.
If you choose not to allow the logging and storage of impressions of notifications received and clicks for remarketing purposes, you will still see the same number of advertisements, but they may not be as relevant or interesting to you.
Why are cookies necessary?
Cookies are used by most websites because they offer a convenient way to keep content fresh and tailored to the interests and preferences of users. Website operators can evaluate the effectiveness of their website design and the relevance of the ads they display by analysing website traffic statistics, which are facilitated by cookies.
