About this policy
This policy explains how Mauritius Holidays Direct uses cookies, session storage, pixels and similar technologies on this website. Some are essential for the website to work. We will not use optional analytics or marketing technologies unless you give us permission through the cookie banner.
Your choices
You can accept all optional technologies, reject all non-essential technologies, or choose analytics and marketing separately. Rejecting optional technologies will not prevent you from browsing the website or making an enquiry.
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time. Your new choice takes effect after the page reloads.
Cookie categories
Required to remember your privacy choice and provide functionality you request. These cannot be switched off through the banner.
Google Analytics 4 and our first-party visitor statistics help us understand page visits, device type, referring source and website performance.
Google Tag Manager and Meta Pixel help us measure advertising campaigns. These technologies remain blocked unless you enable marketing.

Third-party services
When enabled, Google and Meta may receive information such as the page visited, browser or device information, approximate location derived from your IP address and advertising identifiers. Their use of information is governed by their own policies:
Google Tag Manager is a tag-delivery system. We classify it as marketing and do not load it until marketing consent is given because tags inside the container may access information on your device.
First-party visitor statistics
If you enable analytics, our system records a session identifier, page URL, referring page, browser user-agent, device category, IP address, country or city headers supplied by our hosting provider, and visit timestamps. This supports our existing active-visitor and website-performance reports. It does not run if analytics is rejected.
