-
Session cookies expire when you leave our websites. These allow us to link your actions with that particular browsing session.
-
Cookies stored on your device between browsing sessions help us remember your preferences and actions while you're on our websites.

How we use cookies
Your right to refuse cookies and tracking tools
The majority of commercial Internet browsers will automatically accept cookies. However, if you prefer to delete cookies or have them automatically refused, you can do so by changing your Internet browser settings. The “Help” section in your browser's toolbar provides instructions for making these adjustments.
​
You can also control tools on your mobile devices. For example, location services or push notifications on your phone can be switched off. These settings are device-specific.
With your consent, we collect information from and about you—either during your visits to our websites or through the use of our services across our portfolio of independent hotels. For example, we collect data such as the browser or device you used to access our websites, how long you stayed active, how you interacted with the site, and which websites you visited afterwards. This information is mainly used for statistical analysis or marketing purposes and is not linked to any personally identifiable information, such as your name or contact details.
Like many other websites, our independent hotels use cookies to collect visitor preferences, monitor web traffic, and enhance your browsing experience. For example, cookies help ensure the security and authenticity of registered users after they log in and help us identify and improve web pages that may not be relevant to them.
​
We also work with third-party companies and service partners, including Google, who are authorised to place cookies and similar technologies on our websites. These partners help us deliver a safer, better, and faster online experience for our independent hotels and their guests.

Security:

Your information may be passed to and used by all companies we manage. We will never pass your personal data to anyone else, except for any successors in title to our business and third-party service providers or suppliers that process data on our behalf.
