Cookies are small files your browser stores that help websites function and remember preferences. This policy explains what we use at rusticrooinn.com. It's written to be readable — the detail is in the table of categories below.
What we use
We use a deliberately small set of cookies:
- Essential — session, security and preference cookies the site needs to function (cookie-consent state, form integrity)
- Analytics — anonymised page-usage data to understand what's read and what's ignored
- Performance — load-time and error monitoring
We do not use advertising, tracking-pixel or cross-site profiling cookies.
Specific cookies
The main cookies on the site:
- cookies-accepted — your consent choice, kept until cleared
- Session cookies — temporary, deleted when you close the browser
- Analytics cookies — anonymised, retained up to 13 months
Your choices
On first visit our banner offers accept or decline. Declining sets only essential cookies. You can change your mind any time by clearing site data in your browser and revisiting — the banner reappears. Browser settings can also block or delete cookies entirely; the site remains usable, though some preferences won't persist.
Third-party cookies
Embedded content may set its own cookies — the Google Maps embed on our contacts page, for example, is governed by Google's policies. We don't control these; blocking third-party cookies in your browser covers them.
Do Not Track
Our analytics collection is minimal and anonymised by design, so Do Not Track signals are honoured by default — we don't track you across sites regardless.
Changes
We'll update this policy if our cookie use changes. Material changes are flagged on the banner and this page.
