This Cookie Policy explains how Otelia Hospitality uses cookies and similar technologies on oteliahospitality.com (the “Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They enable sites to recognise browsers and retain visit information. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels, tags and software development kits (SDKs).
Cookies serve multiple functions: enabling core site functionality, preserving user preferences, analysing visitor behaviour and - with explicit consent - supporting marketing activities. Strictly necessary cookies load automatically, while analytics, functional and marketing cookies require consent through the cookie banner.
Essential for site functionality and cannot be disabled. These activate in response to user actions like preference settings, login or form completion. No prior consent is required.
These gather anonymous data about visitor interactions to improve content and performance. Loading requires consent.
Enable enhanced features such as embedded maps, calendar widgets and video players. May be set by Otelia or third-party providers. Loading requires consent.
Advertising partners use these to build interest profiles and display relevant advertisements elsewhere. Loading requires consent. Currently inactive but prepared for future Meta Pixel or Google Ads integration.
Pages embedding third-party content (Google Maps, YouTube, Calendly, Google Calendar) may receive cookies governed by those providers’ policies.
