Cookie policy
Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser. Here's a plain-language look at which ones AfterSurf Guide uses and why.
Last updated: September 5, 2026
We only use one technical session cookie: it remembers the language you chose and protects the WhatsApp enquiry form against forged submissions. We don't use analytics, advertising or cross-site tracking cookies — that's why this is an informational notice, not an accept/reject banner.
What we store and why
| Name | Type | What it does | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Name PHPSESSID | Type Essential | What it does Remembers your chosen language and protects the WhatsApp enquiry form against forged submissions. | Duration Deleted when you close your browser |
| Name asgSpotVideoConsent (sessionStorage) | Type Functional | What it does Remembers that you already enabled autoplay for videos on the spots map. | Duration Deleted when you close the tab |
Third-party content
Almost everything is served from our own domain, fonts included. The only things loaded from outside aftersurfguide.com are the map tiles on the spots page (OpenFreeMap) and, only if you open a spot that has one, a live third-party webcam embed (in2theBeach.es). These resources don't set cookies themselves; the embedded webcam is a full third-party page and may use its own storage while you're viewing it.
How to manage cookies
You can block or delete cookies from your browser settings at any time. If you block the session cookie, the site still works normally, it just won't remember your chosen language between pages.
Do Not Track
This site does not currently respond to the browser's Do Not Track signal, as there is no uniform standard for interpreting it.
This page describes, transparently and technically, what the site actually does. It is not legal advice.
