Our Policy Concerning Cookies
To serve you faster and with better quality, we use "cookie" technology and also allow third parties to use cookies on our Site.

As described in more detail below, The Site's cookies have many benefits to enhance your experience on our web site. The third party cookies used on our site are also designed to improve your web site experience by facilitating the receipt of targeted advertisements while on our site and while you are viewing other web sites.
The Site Cookies (First Party Cookies): We, at CruiseLabs, use our cookies to reduce the time it takes for you to submit purchase requests. For example, we use a cookie to store a registered user's e-mail address so that the user does not need to enter their e-mail address each time that they log-in onto The Site.

Except as it relates third-party advertising and The Sites's use of Google Analytics, no third party has access to the information we collect through The Site's cookies.
Third Party Cookies and Pixels: We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads while you are visiting our site and permit these companies to place and access their own cookies on your computer in the course of serving advertisements on this site. These companies may use information obtained through their cookie (which does not include your name, address, e-mail address or telephone number) about your visits to our and other web sites, in combination with non-personally identifiable information about your purchases and interests from other online sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

Our Policy Concerning Geographic Location Sensing Technology

Or, if our technology determines that you live in the Northeastern US, we may feature more content with cruises from New York and Baltimore. To learn more about this technology, visit
