Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how airportparkingmelbournes.com uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit the site. It describes what cookies are, which types this site uses, and how you can control them through your browser. The same rules apply whether you are here to compare airport parking or to look up melbourne airport parking details before you travel.

What cookies are

Small files, stored by your browser

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information between pages or between visits, such as your preferences or general usage patterns.

Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser. These are usually called session cookies, and they help a page hold onto what you typed while you are still on it. Others remain for a set period and are called persistent cookies; they let the site recognise a returning browser without asking the same question every time.

Cookies are not programs. They cannot run code, scan your device or open files. A cookie only carries the values the site that set it chose to store, and your browser decides whether to keep it. When you browse our parking pages, clear the cookie store or switch devices, the information tied to that cookie is gone.

Three jobs, kept separate: the site loads, the site is measured, your data is not sold.

The rest of this page sets out each type of cookie in detail, who sets it, and the switches you have in your own browser.

Cookies we use

This site uses essential cookies that are required for the website to function correctly, including basic navigation and form submission.

We also use analytical cookies to understand which pages visitors read and how they move through the site. This information is aggregated and is not used to identify individuals.

  • Essential

    Keeps the page you asked for coming back correctly, remembers a form you have started, and stops the site from looping you between steps. Without these, part of the site simply stops working.

  • Analytical

    Counts visits and shows which pages are opened, which are left quickly and how people move between parking guides. The output is a total, not a list of named people.

  • Session length

    Navigation cookies clear when you close the browser. Analytical cookies stay longer so a returning visit can be counted as a repeat rather than a new one.

  • Set by

    Our own pages set the functional cookies. Analytical cookies are set by the measurement service we use to report on site traffic.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies may be set by third-party services that support the operation of this site, such as analytics providers. These providers process data according to their own privacy policies.

This site does not control the cookies set by external websites you may reach through links on our pages. If you follow a link away from our parking pages — to an airline, a terminal service or a travel advice site — the cookie rules of that destination apply to what you do there, and their privacy notice is the one to read.

Where an embedded or linked service offers its own cookie preferences, you can usually change them on the provider's site rather than here. Withdrawing permission there does not affect the essential cookies that keep our own pages running.

What we do not use cookies for

No targeted advertising

We do not use cookies to serve targeted advertising on this site. What you read here is not used to build an advertising profile and shown back to you elsewhere.

No sensitive information

We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal information. Nothing about health, beliefs, or identity is gathered through the cookie store in your browser.

No selling of data

We do not sell data collected through cookies. Nothing gathered by measuring visits to our airport parking pages is packaged and passed on to another business.

Cookies on this site support functionality and measurement only. That is the whole list. If we ever add a cookie for a different purpose, this page is where it will be described.

Managing cookies in your browser

Your browser has the final say

You can view, block and delete cookies through your browser settings. The exact steps vary by browser, and most browsers provide this under a privacy or security section.

Blocking all cookies may affect how this site and other websites function. If you clear everything and then book airport parking Melbourne trips regularly, expect to re-enter a few preferences the next time you arrive.

Consent

By continuing to use this site, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy. If you do not consent, you can adjust your browser settings or stop using the site.

Where local law requires explicit consent for particular cookie types, we will request it before those cookies are set. A request like that is a yes or no question about a specific category, and declining it does not close the site to you.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy if the cookies used on the site change or if legal requirements shift. The current version is always available on this page.

We recommend reviewing this page periodically if you want to stay informed about how cookies are used. There is no need to check on a schedule — a revisit before a trip is usually enough.

Common questions about cookies here

Do I have to accept cookies to look at parking options?

Open

No. The pages that describe airport parking options, rates and terminal guidance can be read without accepting analytical cookies. Essential cookies still run, because without them the pages and forms do not work reliably.

Can I use the site in a private browsing window?

Open

Yes. Private or incognito windows keep cookies only for the session and clear them when you close the window. Anything you submit through a form is still sent when you press the submit button.

Does clearing cookies delete a booking enquiry I already sent?

Open

No. Once an enquiry has been submitted it is separate from the cookie on your device. Clearing your browser only removes local traces, such as a saved form state you had not finished.

Why does the policy differ from another site's cookie notice?

Open

Cookie notices describe the cookies a particular site actually sets, so they differ from site to site. This one covers the pages on airportparkingmelbournes.com; a booking partner or an airline you visit later explains its own.
