This Cookie Policy explains how Kish Rent A Car ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website. By using our website, you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this policy. This policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to website owners. Cookies typically contain a unique identifier, the website name, and some numbers and characters. They allow websites to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language, login status, and other settings.
Cookies can be "persistent" or "session" cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser and are used to remember your preferences when you return to the website. Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. They are used to track your activities during a single browsing session.
We use cookies for several important purposes that enhance your experience on our website. Cookies help us provide essential website functionality, such as maintaining your login session and remembering your booking details as you navigate through the reservation process. They enable us to remember your preferences, including your selected language (English, Arabic, or Persian), your preferred currency (OMR, AED, or USD), and your notification settings.
Cookies also help us understand how visitors use our website by analyzing page views, time spent on pages, navigation patterns, and popular vehicle searches. This information allows us to improve our website design, optimize user experience, and identify technical issues. Additionally, cookies help us deliver personalized content and advertisements based on your browsing behavior and interests, measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns, and track conversions from advertisements.
These cookies are essential for the website to function properly and cannot be disabled in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as logging in, filling out forms, or setting privacy preferences. Without these cookies, some parts of our website would not work. Examples include authentication cookies that keep you logged in as you navigate between pages, security cookies that protect against fraudulent activity and enhance security, and session cookies that maintain your booking information during the reservation process.
Cookie Names: session_id, auth_token, csrf_token, booking_session
Duration: Session cookies (deleted when browser closes) or up to 30 days for persistent authentication
These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our website. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly. Examples include language preference cookies that remember your selected language (English, Arabic, or Persian), currency preference cookies that remember your selected currency (OMR, AED, or USD), and user interface cookies that remember your display preferences such as dark mode or light mode.
Cookie Names: language_preference, currency_preference, theme_preference, notification_preferences

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously.

We use this information to improve our website and provide a better user experience.
Cookie Names: _ga, _gid, _gat (Google Analytics), analytics_session, page_views
Duration: Session cookies to 2 years
Third-Party Provider: Google Analytics (for website traffic analysis)
These cookies track your browsing habits to deliver personalized advertisements and measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. They may be set by us or by our advertising partners. They help us show you relevant advertisements for our services on other websites, measure how many people click on our advertisements, prevent the same advertisement from being shown too many times, and understand which marketing channels are most effective.
Cookie Names: _fbp (Facebook Pixel), ads_preferences, marketing_campaign, conversion_tracking
Duration: Up to 1 year
Third-Party Providers: Facebook, Google Ads, and other advertising platforms
In addition to our own cookies, we use cookies from trusted third-party service providers to enhance our website functionality and analyze website performance. These third parties may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites.
We use Google Analytics to analyze website traffic and user behavior. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information about how visitors use our website, including pages visited, time spent on pages, and navigation paths. This information is aggregated and anonymized. Google Analytics does not collect personally identifiable information unless you are logged in to your Google account. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Our website includes social media features, such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter share buttons. These features may set cookies to track your interactions with social media content. Social media platforms may also use cookies to deliver targeted advertisements based on your browsing behavior. These cookies are controlled by the respective social media platforms, and we recommend reviewing their privacy policies for more information.
When you make a payment on our website, our payment processor may use cookies to facilitate secure transactions and prevent fraud. These cookies are essential for processing payments and are subject to the payment processor's privacy policy and security standards.
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can set your browser to block all cookies, accept only certain cookies, or notify you when a cookie is being set. However, please note that blocking all cookies may prevent you from using certain features of our website, such as logging in or making bookings.
Here's how to manage cookies in popular browsers:
Google Chrome: Go to Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data. You can choose to block all cookies, block third-party cookies, or allow all cookies.
Mozilla Firefox: Go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data. You can choose to block all cookies, block third-party cookies, or allow all cookies.
Safari: Go to Preferences → Privacy. You can choose to block all cookies or block cookies from third parties and advertisers.
Microsoft Edge: Go to Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Cookies and site data. You can choose to block all cookies, block third-party cookies, or allow all cookies.
You can opt out of certain types of cookies using the following tools:
Google Analytics Opt-out: Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about your website visits.
Advertising Opt-out: Visit the Digital Advertising Alliance's opt-out page or the Network Advertising Initiative's opt-out page to opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies.
Do Not Track: Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that sends a signal to websites requesting that they do not track your browsing. However, not all websites honor DNT signals, and there is no universal standard for how websites should respond to them.
On mobile devices, you can control cookies through your device settings or browser settings. You can also limit ad tracking on iOS devices (Settings → Privacy → Advertising → Limit Ad Tracking) or opt out of personalized ads on Android devices (Settings → Google → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalization).
While you have the right to control cookies, disabling certain cookies may impact your experience on our website. If you disable strictly necessary cookies, you may not be able to log in to your account, complete bookings, or access certain features. If you disable functional cookies, your preferences (such as language and currency) will not be saved, and you will need to set them each time you visit. If you disable analytics cookies, we will not be able to measure website performance or identify areas for improvement. If you disable advertising cookies, you may still see advertisements, but they will be less relevant to your interests.
In addition to cookies, our website uses other browser storage technologies to enhance your experience. These technologies work similarly to cookies but have different characteristics and purposes.
Local Storage allows us to store larger amounts of data on your device compared to cookies (up to 5-10 MB). We use Local Storage to save your booking form data so you don't lose your search criteria if you accidentally close the browser. We also store your vehicle comparison selections, your preferred map view settings, and your dashboard layout preferences. Unlike cookies, Local Storage data does not expire automatically and remains until you clear your browser data or we explicitly delete it.
Session Storage is similar to Local Storage but is automatically cleared when you close your browser tab. We use Session Storage to temporarily store your vehicle search filters (price range, vehicle type, location), your current booking step in the multi-step reservation process, and temporary form data during checkout. This ensures a smooth booking experience while maintaining your privacy by automatically clearing data when you're done.
You can clear Local Storage and Session Storage through your browser's developer tools or by clearing all browsing data. In most browsers, go to Settings → Privacy → Clear Browsing Data, and select "Cookies and other site data." This will remove both cookies and browser storage. Note that clearing this data will log you out and reset your preferences.
We are committed to giving you control over your cookie preferences. When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie consent banner that allows you to choose which types of cookies you want to accept.
Accept All: This option accepts all cookies, including strictly necessary, functional, analytics, and marketing cookies. This provides the fullest website experience with all features enabled.
Reject All: This option rejects all non-essential cookies. Only strictly necessary cookies will be used. Some website features may be limited with this option.
Customize: This option allows you to select which cookie categories you want to accept. You can enable functional and analytics cookies while rejecting marketing cookies, for example.
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of our website. This will reopen the cookie consent banner, allowing you to modify your choices. Your new preferences will take effect immediately, and any previously set cookies that you no longer consent to will be deleted.
Your cookie consent is stored for 12 months. After this period, we will ask for your consent again to ensure your preferences are up to date. If you clear your browser cookies, you will also need to provide your consent again when you next visit our website.
Different cookies have different retention periods. Session cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you manually delete them. The retention period for each cookie depends on its purpose and is specified in the cookie descriptions above. You can delete cookies at any time through your browser settings.
