Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files stored by a website in your browser. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage and server-side session identifiers. They help the website remember a session, protect forms, keep preferences and operate reliably.

At the time of this update, HolidayHive uses Laravel session and CSRF mechanisms, authentication/session cookies where required, local storage for the cookie acknowledgement and favourites, and preference storage for site functions such as language or currency. We did not identify active optional analytics, advertising, map, video, live chat or card-payment trackers in the application code.

The actual names can vary by environment and framework configuration. The current functional inventory is listed below.

Strictly necessary technologies are required for security, sessions, account login, forms, CSRF protection and core website operation. Functional or preference technologies remember choices such as language, currency, favourites or acknowledgement of the cookie notice.

Analytics and marketing cookies are not currently active in the verified application code. If optional analytics, advertising, embedded maps, videos, live chat, social widgets or payment scripts are added, they should be documented and controlled before activation.

First-party cookies are set by HolidayHive. Third-party cookies are set by external services. The verified current implementation is primarily first-party. External links, suppliers or social media pages may use their own cookies after you leave HolidayHive.

The current banner acknowledges essential cookies only. Because no optional trackers were detected, there is no active optional tracking consent flow. You can reopen browser controls by clearing the site’s local storage or managing cookies in your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may prevent login, forms or booking requests from working.

Business improvement recommended: add a full preference centre with Accept all, Reject non-essential and Manage preferences before enabling any optional tracking.
