Cookies Policy

What are cookies

This site and all Louis Hotels Group websites use “cookies,” which are small text files stored on computers of users during the “hits” on the various websites on the internet or stored on mobile phone devices or applications, in order to provide to the website, the ability of recognizing the user during his subsequent visits to the same site. Cookies enhance website in terms of use and convenience of the user.

We store these files on your web browser and we access them every time you visit our websites. They contain information regarding your visit and activity. For instance, we keep information regarding your bookings as you explore our website. While you are browsing our website, some cookies are set by third parties which we have chosen to use as suppliers. We control their use of your data through contracts and they are only allowed to use your personal data strictly for the purposes stated in our Privacy Policy.

Cookies may be also used to monitor the movements of users to form a profile of their preferences in order for advertisements that they find attractive to be presented to them.

What cookies do we use?

Essential cookies: These make our websites work. They remember what dates you want to stay with us, what sort of room you want and that you are logged in to your account. They also allow us to collect information about your use of our websites and apps, enabling us to improve the way they work.

Performance cookies: Performance cookies also allow us to see if there are any technical issues on our websites and if you are experiencing any issues using our websites. They also allow us to look at usage statistics and performance. We use Google Analytics to help us understand how you use our services. For more information on Google Analytics, please visit Google’s website.

Functional cookies: These cookies collect information about the language you have requested the site display content in, remembering your username (if log-in features are set on a website) so you can log-in more quickly, text size, location you are in and generally allow us to customise your experience. Nobody likes having to repeat themselves and these cookies help with that.

Tracking and advertising cookies and similar technologies: We use these types of cookies and similar technologies to provide adverts that we think may be more relevant to your interests. This can be based on your browsing activity and is known as online behavioural advertising or OBA. Cookies are placed on your browser, which remembers what websites you’ve been to. Advertising based on what you have been viewing is then displayed.

Web beacons and tracking pixels: These technologies help us to count users on a web page and see if a cookie has been activated. They allow us to see how popular content is and if an email has been delivered to a recipient, opened and links clicked on. We use this information to track how successful campaigns have been.

Flash cookies: Sometimes we may use flash players to deliver special content, such as video clips.

Device Fingerprinting: Sometimes we may use a device’s browser information to identify that device, conduct analysis, help detect and prevent fraud and present content correctly.

Advertising cookies: Allow us and other advertisers to show you the most relevant products, offers, and advertisements on our websites and third-party sites, or through emails or other message platforms. For example, some Advertising Cookies help our service providers and other advertisers select advertisements that are based on your interests, including those expressed or inferred by visits to our websites or apps or across other websites, online services, and apps over time. Others help prevent the same advertisement from continuously reappearing for you. These types of cookies also help us provide you with content on the Site that is tailored to your interests and needs.

Advertising Cookies also include Social Plug-In Cookies: Social Plug-In Cookies are used to share content from any of our websites with members and non-members of social media networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Pinterest. These cookies are usually set by the social networking provider, enabling such sharing to be smooth and seamless.

Analytics Cookies: Such cookies collect information about your use of our websites and enable us to improve the way they work. Analytics cookies simply assess how you interact with our website as an anonymous user (the data gathered does not identify you personally). These cookies give us aggregated information that we use to monitor site performance, count page visits, spot technical errors, see how users reach our websites, and measure the effectiveness of advertising (including emails we send to you). We also use technology to determine how people who phone us arrived on our website again either from a search engine or by just clicking on an advert. This is to help us to identify how people heard about us.

Visitor statistics cookies: Cookies are used to compile visitor statistics such as how many people have visited our websites, what type of technology do they use, for example Windows or Mac, which enables us to identify should the case be that our site is not working as expected. We are also able to identify how long the visitor spends on the site and what pages they choose to look at.

Other Technologies may be used for the same purposes as Cookies, to allow us and third parties to know when you visit our websites, and to understand how you interact with emails or advertisements. Through Other Technologies, non-personal information (e.g., your operating system, your browser version, and the URL you came from) or aggregate information may be obtained and used to enhance your experience and understand traffic patterns.

NOTICE: To the extent that information collected through Cookies and Other Technologies constitutes personal information, the provisions in our Privacy Policy apply and complement this Cookies Policy.
