Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Port Air Transfer uses cookies and similar technologies on this website. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. Who we are

The controller is Budak First Class, Badenerstrasse 816, 8048 Zurich, Switzerland. For data or cookie questions: info@portairtransfer.ch.

2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We also use similar technologies (for example local session storage used by the booking form). Some cookies are strictly necessary to provide the transfer booking you request. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics 4 and Google Ads) are used by default.

Google Maps/Places is always used on the booking form so it can suggest addresses. The address you type is sent to Google for those suggestions. That does not depend on your cookie choice. “Necessary only” turns off Google Analytics and Google Ads from the next page load. You can change that choice at any time via or the footer link.

3. Necessary cookies

These are required to operate the site, remember your cookie choice, and complete a booking and payment. They do not require consent.

Name	Purpose	Duration
`bt_cookie_consent`	Stores whether you chose Accept all or Necessary only, so we do not ask again on every page.	6 months
`pll_language`	Remembers the last language chosen in the EN/DE switcher (English or German). Language is also selected from the URL.	1 year
`bt_hero_from`, `bt_hero_to`, `bt_hero_date`, `bt_hero_time`, `bt_hero_pax`, `bt_hero_bags`, `bt_hero_round_trip`, `bt_hero_date_return`, `bt_hero_time_return`	Keeps your quote (pickup, destination, date, time, passengers/luggage, return trip) while you complete the Bookly booking steps and AJAX requests.	1 hour
`PHPSESSID` (or Bookly session cookie)	WordPress / Bookly session so the booking form can keep your selected vehicle, slot and details between steps.	Session (until you close the browser)
Stripe (`__stripe_mid`, `__stripe_sid` and related)	Set by Stripe on the payment step to process the card payment and help prevent fraud. We do not store full card numbers.	`__stripe_mid` up to 1 year; `__stripe_sid` about 30 minutes (set by Stripe)
WordPress logged-in cookies (`wordpress_logged_in_`, `wordpress_sec_`, `wp-settings-*`, `wordpress_test_cookie`)	Used only if you log in to WordPress (staff/admin). Ordinary visitors are not logged in and typically receive none of these.	Session, or up to 1 year for admin display settings

We do not currently enable Bookly’s “remember my details” cookies (bookly-customer-*). If that setting is turned on later, those cookies would store name, email and phone for about 1 year to pre-fill the form.

4. Functional technologies (no optional cookies)

Flatpickr is a date and time picker we host ourselves. It runs in your browser for the quote form and does not set cookies.

Polylang may set a pll_language cookie when you use the EN/DE switcher, so the site can remember the last language you chose. Language is also selected from the URL (/de/ for German). You can refuse optional cookies; this cookie is functional only.

The trip map on the booking page draws the route with OpenStreetMap tiles (not Google). It loads when you book a specific route and does not depend on your cookie choice. Tile requests go to OpenStreetMap; we do not set a cookie for this. If a driving-route line is not available, the page may request a static Google map image for the same route. That image request also does not depend on your cookie choice.

5. Analytics and Google Maps

Unless you choose Necessary only, we load Google Analytics 4 and the Google Ads tag on every page. Google may set cookies such as _ga, _ga_* and _gcl_au (names and lifetimes are set by Google). Google may receive pages viewed, device and browser data, approximate location, and, when a booking is completed, one purchase event with value, currency (CHF) and booking reference. Data may be processed in the United States. See Google’s Privacy Policy.

Google Maps and Places always load on the booking form, including if you choose Necessary only or have not chosen yet. The address you type is sent to Google for suggestions. Google may set its own cookies (for example NID) and process that address in the United States. See Google’s Privacy Policy and Google’s cookie information.

Necessary only stops Google Analytics and Google Ads from the next page load. It does not stop Google Maps/Places on the booking form, the trip map, or a price request.

When you request a price, our server may send the pickup and destination to Google’s Routes API to calculate distance and driving time. That is not a cookie on your device. “Necessary only” does not switch it off.

6. How to change or disable cookies

On this site: use (also in the footer). “Necessary only” stops Google Analytics and Google Ads on the next page load. Google Maps/Places on the booking form stays available. “Accept all” keeps analytics on.
In your browser: you can block or delete cookies in your browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge). Blocking all cookies may stop the booking form from working, because necessary session cookies cannot be stored.
Browser guides: Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge.

7. Your rights and contact

Depending on applicable law (GDPR and Swiss revFADP), you may request access, correction, deletion or restriction of your personal data, object to processing, and (where GDPR applies) data portability. You may also withdraw cookie consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

Contact: info@portairtransfer.ch. You may also lodge a complaint with the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) or, if you are in the EEA/UK, your local supervisory authority.
