Cookies cannot be used by themselves to identify you. A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the “lifetime” of the cookie, and a value – usually a randomly generated unique number.

Detective Tours may also monitor which websites you have come from before entering the Detective Tours site, and which websites you move on to after leaving the Detective Tours site. Detective Tours uses this information in order to develop and assess the impact of adverts and campaigns.

If you do not wish to receive cookies you can easily modify your web browser to refuse cookies, or to notify you when you receive a new cookie. However, you may not be able to use all the interactive features of our site if cookies are disabled, and so, in order to enjoy the Detective Tours site to the full, we recommend that you leave them switched on.

The accuracy of your individual identifying information is important to Detective Tours.

8. What security precautions are in place to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of my information?
When you give Detective Tours personal information, that information may be stored and processed outside of the UK and we take steps to ensure that your information is treated securely.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
