This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies My Luxoria uses, why we use them, and the choices available to you. It complements our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information and to support personalised advertising.
We also use related browser technologies — localStorage, sessionStorage, and pixel tags — for the same purposes. Where this policy refers to "cookies" we mean all of these.
Your choices
You can accept or reject categories of cookies (other than strictly necessary cookies, which we always need) at any time using the button at the bottom of this page. Your choice is recorded for 13 months; we will ask again when this period expires or if we materially update the policy.
You can also remove or block cookies via your browser settings — see aboutcookies.org. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may break parts of the site.
Cookies we use
We group cookies into four categories. The full list of every cookie we (or our third-party providers) set is shown in the tables below.
- Strictly necessary — required for the site to function (login, payment, security). These cannot be disabled.
- Preferences — remember choices you make (currency, favourites, language).
- Analytics — help us understand how visitors interact with the site so we can improve it.
- Marketing — used to measure advertising effectiveness and to show you relevant offers on other sites.
Third-party services and embedded content
Some pages embed or link to third-party content. These providers set their own cookies once you interact with that content:
- Google Maps — loaded only when you click to open a property's map. Subject to Google's privacy policy.
- Stripe — loaded on the booking and payment pages for secure card processing. Subject to Stripe's privacy policy.
- Google Tag Manager / Analytics / Ads — loaded only after you accept Analytics / Marketing cookies. Subject to Google's privacy policy.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when our use of cookies changes. The version date above will be updated. If the changes are material, we will ask for your consent again.
