Understanding How KrisFlyerSpree Uses Cookies
This cookies policy explains how KrisFlyerSpree uses cookies and similar technologies to deliver a smooth, secure, and personalised browsing experience. By continuing to use the site after seeing the cookies notice, you are deemed to consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy and the overall privacy practices that govern your interaction with the website.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files placed on your browser or device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognise your device, remember your preferences, and understand how you interact with content and features. Cookies play a key role in making websites work effectively, from keeping you signed in to tailoring offers and measuring performance.
Types of Cookies Used on KrisFlyerSpree
KrisFlyerSpree uses a combination of session and persistent cookies, as well as first-party and third-party cookies. Each category serves a different purpose and contributes to a better user experience.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the operation of the site. They enable basic functions such as page navigation, secure login, and form submissions. Without these cookies, services you request, such as accessing your account or making a purchase through a partner merchant, cannot be provided. Because they are required for the site to function, they typically cannot be disabled through normal preference tools.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow the site to remember choices you make, such as language settings, region, or previous preferences. By storing these details, the site can present relevant content and a consistent experience across visits. These cookies may also support certain enhanced features, such as remembering your last visited pages or your preferred viewing options.
Performance and Analytics Cookies
Performance cookies help KrisFlyerSpree understand how visitors use the website, which pages are popular, how long users stay, and whether any errors occur. Information collected is typically aggregated and anonymised, and is used to improve site structure, content, and navigation. Analytics insights enable the team to optimise journeys, refine offers, and ensure that pages load quickly and reliably.
Advertising and Tracking Cookies
Advertising cookies may be used to deliver content and promotions that are more relevant to your interests. They can also limit the number of times you see a particular advertisement and help measure the effectiveness of campaigns. These cookies often come from third-party partners that provide marketing, remarketing, or affiliate tracking services, enabling KrisFlyerSpree to recognise when a purchase is made through a partner link and to award miles or rewards appropriately.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on the site are set by third-party service providers. These may include analytics platforms, advertising networks, social media services, and affiliate partners. Third-party cookies help deliver services such as traffic measurement, content sharing tools, and performance tracking for partner merchants. While KrisFlyerSpree defines how these technologies are integrated into the site, each third party manages its own cookie practices as outlined in its respective privacy and cookies policies.
How Cookies Enhance Your Experience
Cookies make it possible to offer a seamless, tailored experience as you browse KrisFlyerSpree. They support secure sessions, speed up navigation, ensure that shopping trips through partner merchants are tracked correctly, and allow the site to remember who you are from visit to visit. By analysing aggregate behaviour, cookies also help identify areas for improvement, ensuring that pages remain intuitive, relevant, and easy to use.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You are in control of how cookies are used on your devices. Most web browsers allow you to manage, block, or delete cookies through their settings. You can typically configure the browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or prompt you when a cookie is being set. Note that disabling certain categories of cookies, especially strictly necessary or functional cookies, may impact the performance of the site or limit access to specific features, such as secure account areas or partner journeys.
Browser Controls
Cookie management tools are usually found in the privacy or security sections of your browser settings. From there, you can view existing cookies, clear them, or specify how new cookies should be handled. The exact steps differ by browser and device, and you may need to repeat adjustments across multiple browsers if you use more than one.
Opting Out of Analytics and Advertising Cookies
Some analytics and advertising services offer their own opt-out mechanisms. Adjusting these settings may reduce the extent to which your activity is recorded for analytical or marketing purposes. However, even if you opt out of certain tracking technologies, you may still see non-personalised ads or experience aggregated analytics that do not rely on individual cookie identifiers.
Cookies, Personal Data, and Privacy
Depending on how they are configured, cookies may work with other information to help identify a device or user. In such cases, cookie data can be associated with personal information collected through the site, such as account details or transaction history. KrisFlyerSpree handles this information in line with its broader privacy practices, applying appropriate security measures and honouring the purposes for which the data was collected. You can learn more about how personal data is handled by reviewing the privacy-related documentation that applies to your KrisFlyer membership and use of the site.
Retention of Cookies
Some cookies remain on your device only for the duration of your browsing session and are removed once you close your browser. Others are persistent cookies that stay on your device for a longer period or until you delete them. The retention period depends on the purpose of the cookie and the technical settings defined by KrisFlyerSpree or the respective third party. Persistent cookies help recognise you between visits and support long-term improvements to the website.
Updates to This Cookies Policy
This cookies policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or the way KrisFlyerSpree operates. Revised versions will take effect when they are posted on the site. Continued use of the website after any changes have been made signifies that you accept the updated policy. You are encouraged to review this page periodically to stay informed about how cookies are used.
Your Choices and Responsibilities
By managing cookie settings on your devices and staying informed about how cookies function, you help shape your own browsing experience. Being aware of the different types of cookies and their purposes makes it easier to choose a balance between convenience, personalisation, and privacy that suits your preferences. When using KrisFlyerSpree, your choices directly influence how the site can tailor content, measure performance, and recognise eligible activity for rewards.
