Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy ("Policy") explains how Wholesale Hotels Group LLC dba WayKind^® ("WayKind^®," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on the website www.way-kind.com (the "Site") and related online services (collectively, the "Service").

This Policy should be read together with our Privacy & Data Protection Policy and Terms & Conditions of Use.

By continuing to access or use the Service, you acknowledge and agree to the use of cookies and tracking technologies as described in this Policy.

WayKind^® is a U.S.-based entity governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming.

The Service is hosted on Vercel's cloud platform. Vercel may route traffic through its global content delivery network to optimize performance, and may process limited technical metadata (such as IP address and system configuration) for operational and security purposes. No additional cookies or marketing trackers are deployed by Vercel.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow a site to recognize your device, remember preferences, maintain sessions, and collect technical or usage information.

WayKind^® may also use web beacons, pixels, scripts, and other similar technologies for analytical, operational, and security purposes.

The WayKind^® platform includes unique links and banners used by participating nonprofits and Referral Partners to invite travelers and supporters to the Service.

When a user clicks a nonprofit's or Referral Partner's referral link or banner and then registers or uses the Service, WayKind^® may:

• Record the referring URL,
• Capture referral parameters included in the link (such as a nonprofit ID, Referral Partner ID, or campaign code), and
• Associate that referral information with the user's account or activity for program attribution purposes.

Key points:

• This referral information is handled primarily through URL parameters and server-side logs, not through separate referral cookies.
• We do not use these referral mechanisms to track users across other websites.
• Referral information is used exclusively for internal attribution, commission allocation, fraud prevention, and reporting related to our nonprofit and Referral Partner programs.
• Referral and attribution data (including information about which nonprofit or Referral Partner referred you) is treated as personal information under our Privacy & Data Protection Policy and is safeguarded accordingly.

If you configure your browser or privacy tools to block or strip referral information (for example, by removing referrer headers or URL parameters), attribution to a nonprofit or Referral Partner may not function correctly, and we may be unable to associate your activity with the intended referring party.

WayKind^® uses Google Analytics to gather aggregated, non-personally identifiable usage information to improve the Service.

Google Analytics may collect data such as IP address, device type, browser type, referring pages, and site interactions.

WayKind^® does not combine Google Analytics data with any personally identifiable information, and IP anonymization or equivalent privacy measures are enabled where feasible.

Analytics data is processed under Google's Privacy Policy. Users may opt out using the official Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On.

Most web browsers accept cookies automatically but allow you to modify settings to block or delete them.

If you disable or reject cookies, some features of the Service may not function properly.

Browser support pages:

• Chrome
• Firefox
• Edge
• Safari

WayKind^® may integrate additional analytics, affiliate, or advertising tools in the future.

Any new technologies will be subject to this Policy and will be accompanied by updated disclosures.

WayKind^® is not responsible for the cookie or privacy practices of third-party websites linked through the Service.

By using or continuing to use the Service, you consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies as described in this Policy.

If WayKind^® expands into regions requiring explicit cookie consent (such as the EU, UK, or Canada), a compliant consent management tool will be implemented.

Until then, this U.S.-based notice-based approach applies.

The Service, including its use of cookies and related technologies, is provided "as is" and "as available."

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• WayKind^® disclaims all warranties regarding the accuracy, reliability, or availability of cookie functions.
• WayKind^®, its affiliates, officers, employees, and contractors are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, or special damages arising from or related to cookie use or third-party analytics technologies.

Your sole remedy for dissatisfaction is to discontinue use of the Site.

Any dispute relating to this Policy or the Service shall be resolved exclusively through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules.

Arbitration shall be conducted remotely or in Wyoming, U.S.A.

Users waive any right to participate in class or representative actions and waive any right to a jury trial.

This Policy is governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming.

WayKind^® may amend this Policy at any time.

Updated versions will include an updated "Last Updated" date.

Material changes may also be communicated via email or a notice on the Site.

Continued use of the Service after updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
