Casart Game Lodge (Pty) Ltd (“us”, “we”, or “our”) operates the Casart Game Lodge website. Since our website is a part of our IT infrastructure, we prefer to use the term “Service” to include all functionality that links to and from our website. This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of Personal Information when you use our Service.
This page is last updated 1st July 2021 due to the POPI act (South Africa) coming into effect.

If you are located outside South Africa and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the information, including Personal Information, to South Africa and process it there. Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer.
For data protection purposes, Casart Game Lodge Guesthouse is the controller and, unless otherwise noted, is also the processor of data.

Analytics and advertising
Our Service uses Google AdWords. AdWords is an online advertising program. Their advertisement policy can be found at https://support.google.com/adspolicy/
As part of Google AdWords, we use so-called conversion tracking. When you click on an ad served by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is set. Cookies are small text files that your internet browser stores on your computer. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification of the user. Should the user visit certain pages of the website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and the website can tell that the user clicked on the ad and proceeded to that page.
Each Google AdWords advertiser has a different cookie. Thus, cookies cannot be tracked using the website of an AdWords advertiser. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for the AdWords advertisers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers are told the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a conversion tracking tag page. However, advertisers do not obtain any information that can be used to personally identify users. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can opt-out of this by easily disabling the Google Conversion Tracking cookie by changing your browser settings. In doing so, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.
The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour to optimize both its website and its advertising.
For more information about Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking, see the Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
You can configure your browser to inform you about the use of cookies so that you can decide on a case-by-case basis whether to accept or reject a cookie. Alternatively, your browser can be configured to automatically accept cookies under certain conditions or to always reject them, or to automatically delete cookies when closing your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of our Servce or other websites.
