Cookie Policy

Updated as of October 12, 2026

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. The browser's localStorage and sessionStorage work in a similar way, so for simplicity this policy calls them cookies too.

It explains which cookies forhotel.eu uses, including on the sign-in page, why they are needed and how you can control them.

Our own and third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by the site itself, others by services of other companies that run on our pages: Google and Microsoft. Some are stored on our domain, forhotel.eu, others on these companies' domains, such as clarity.ms or doubleclick.net.

Third-party services process the data they collect under their own privacy policies: Google and Microsoft.

Cookies we use

Below is the full list by category. Durations are the maximum: your browser may delete a cookie earlier, for example when you clear its data.

How to control cookies

Necessary cookies are always on. We set analytics and marketing cookies only if you agree to them in the cookie banner.

You can change your decision at any time: delete our site's cookies in your browser settings, and the banner will appear again on your next visit.

Your browser also lets you block cookies or delete them automatically. Instructions for Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge.

If you block necessary cookies, parts of the site won't work: for example, you won't be able to sign in.

Changes to this policy

When new cookies appear on the site or their purpose changes, we update this page. The date of the last update is shown at the top.
