Managing Cookies

You have several options for managing cookies:

Our Cookie Banner

When you first visit our website, you will see a cookie banner that allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. Your preference is stored and respected on subsequent visits.

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these in the "Options" or "Preferences" menu of your browser. The following links provide information on how to manage cookies in common browsers:

• Google Chrome: chrome://settings/cookies
• Mozilla Firefox: about:preferences#privacy
• Microsoft Edge: edge://settings/privacy

Consequences of Disabling Cookies

If you choose to disable cookies, please note that some features of our website may not function as intended. Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are necessary for the website to work.

Disabling cookies will not prevent you from accessing our website, but your experience may be affected.

Local Storage

In addition to cookies, we may use local storage (HTML5 localStorage) to store certain preferences on your device. Local storage works similarly to cookies but can store larger amounts of data and does not expire unless cleared by you or our website.

We use local storage for:

• Storing your cookie consent preference
• Temporary form data during the booking process

You can clear local storage through your browser's settings, typically in the same area where you manage cookies.

Do Not Track

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites that you do not wish to be tracked. As there is no common understanding of how to interpret such signals, our website does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals. However, you can manage tracking through cookie settings as described above.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our practices. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
