Welcome to museumegys.com, the official online platform of Cairo Giza Pyramids Guide, a travel service provider based in Egypt. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring complete transparency regarding how we collect and use data when you visit our website.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, the types of cookies we use, why we use them, how long they remain on your device, and how you can manage or disable them. This policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, both of which are available on our website.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other internet-connected device when you visit a website. These files are created by the website server and stored in your browser's memory. Each time you revisit the website, your browser sends these cookies back to the server, allowing the website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your previous visits.

Cookies serve a variety of purposes. Some are essential for the basic functionality of the website — without them, the site simply would not work. Others help us understand how visitors interact with our content, enabling us to improve the overall user experience. Still others are used to deliver relevant advertising or to remember your personal preferences.

Cookies are not programs and cannot execute code. They cannot carry viruses or malware, and they cannot access other information stored on your device. They are simply data files that help websites function more efficiently and provide valuable information to website owners.

2.1 Types of Cookies by Duration

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. They are used to maintain a consistent browsing session.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period of time (defined in the cookie) even after you close your browser. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.

2.2 Types of Cookies by Origin

• First-Party Cookies: These are set directly by the website you are visiting (museumegys.com).
