Your tracking preferences.
Control optional Google and Meta measurement of visits, enquiries and tour bookings on our website and public booking pages. Turning it off does not affect your ability to browse or book.
Your choice is saved for six months in this browser and shared with book.smashfactor.hk. Clearing cookies or using another browser means you will need to choose again. Sharing your booking email or phone number with Meta and Google for ad measurement requires the separate, unticked checkbox on the booking form. Turning tracking back on does not give that permission.
Opting out stops future optional tracking. Events already sent cannot be recalled through this control.
