COOKIE POLICY

Searching sets no cookies

Most cookie policies are a page of throat-clearing before admitting to a tracking stack. Ours is short because searching on jumboradar.com sets none. Signing in to a Jumbo account sets two, and the search page you land on next is a different service with its own.

01Searching on jumboradar.com: none

Browsing and searching set no cookies. The site also uses no local storage, no session storage and no device fingerprinting, and it loads no advertising or social-media scripts. The one measurement script, Cloudflare Web Analytics, counts page views and load times without cookies or anything kept in your browser (see the Privacy Policy, section 06).

That is why there is no cookie banner here. A consent prompt for cookies that do not exist would be theatre.

02Signing in to a Jumbo account

The Jumbo account at jumboradar.com/account is invite-only for now. Signing in sets two cookies, and nobody who has not signed in gets them:

  • __Secure-better-auth.session_token: keeps you signed in. Lasts 30 days, or until you sign out.
  • __Secure-better-auth.session_data: a signed copy of your sign-in state, so a page can check it without asking our database each time. Lasts 5 minutes and is renewed while you are signed in.

Both are our own cookies, set for jumboradar.com and its subdomains so one sign-in works on each Jumbo site under it. Both are marked Secure and HttpOnly: they travel only over HTTPS and page scripts cannot read them. They are needed for the sign-in you asked for, which is why they come without a consent prompt, and they are never used for advertising or tracking.

One more thing the sign-in page keeps, only while it sends you back to the site you came from: a timestamp in your browser's session storage, gone when you close the tab. It stops the page sending you round in a loop if that site cannot see your sign-in.

03What a cookie is, briefly

A small file a website asks your browser to keep, so it can recognise the browser later — to remember a preference, keep you signed in, measure traffic, or follow you across sites for advertising. The last of those is the reason cookie law exists.

04The search page is a different service

Running a search takes you to flights.jumboradar.com. It wears JumboRadar's colours, but it is a White Label search interface operated by Travelpayouts (Aviasales) on their infrastructure, and it does use cookies. It shows its own cookie notice when you arrive.

05What those cookies are for

  • Affiliate attribution — a marker recording that your visit came from JumboRadar, so a booking can be credited to us. It identifies the referring site, not you.
  • Search convenience — remembering your recent searches, filters and currency so the page behaves sensibly as you compare fares.
  • Operational — cookies the search platform needs to function, load-balance and defend itself.

Those cookies are set and read by Travelpayouts under their own cookie and privacy policies.

06Airlines and agencies you click through to

Once you leave for an airline or online travel agency, you are in their house: their cookies, their trackers, their policies. Anything they set is outside our control and outside this policy.

07How to control cookies

Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies, including third-party ones, from its privacy settings. Private or incognito windows discard them when the window closes.

Searching on jumboradar.com keeps working if you block cookies entirely, because it uses none. Signing in to a Jumbo account needs its two cookies: without them you cannot stay signed in. On the search page, blocking cookies mostly means it stops remembering your filters and recent searches.

Blocking the affiliate cookie does not cost you anything and does not change your fare. It means a booking you make will not be credited to JumboRadar — which is how this site is funded, but it is your browser and your choice.

08No advertising or profiling from us

We run no advertising network, no retargeting, no cross-site profiling and no data brokerage. We do not sell or share browsing data; the page-view counts we see are totals, not people.

09Changes and contact

If this site ever starts using any other cookies — for example for a different analytics tool — this page will say so before it happens, and a consent mechanism will come with it.

Questions: our contact form. See also the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
