Last updated: 18/11/2025

This Cookies Policy explains how Les Essences d’Agdal (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on the website essencesagdal.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, improve their efficiency and provide information to the site owners.

Cookies can be:

• Session cookies: which are deleted when you close your browser.
• Persistent cookies: which remain stored on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.
• First-party cookies: set by the website you are visiting.
• Third-party cookies: set by other websites or services (for example, analytics or booking tools).

2. Why we use cookies

We use cookies for several purposes:

• Essential / technical cookies: these cookies are necessary for the website to function correctly (for example, to allow navigation, access to secure areas, basic security features).
• Functionality cookies: these cookies allow the website to remember your choices (such as language preferences) and provide enhanced, more personalised features.
• Analytics and performance cookies: these cookies help us understand how visitors use our website (pages visited, time spent, errors encountered) so we can improve content and navigation.
• Booking-related cookies: if we use an online booking tool or third-party booking platform, cookies may be used to remember your search criteria, manage your booking session and improve the reservation process.

We do not use cookies to store sensitive information such as your full payment details on our website.

3. Types of cookies we may use

The categories of cookies we may use on essencesagdal.com include, for example:

• Strictly necessary cookies: required for basic site functions (page navigation, access to secure areas, protection against malicious use).
• Preference cookies: to remember choices such as language, region or other display settings.
• Statistics / analytics cookies: to collect aggregated information about how visitors use the site (for example, to know which pages are most popular).
• Third-party cookies: set by external services integrated into the site (for example, analytics providers, booking engines, embedded content or social media tools).

The actual cookies used may vary over time as we update or change the services we use on the website.

4. Third-party cookies

Some cookies on our website may be placed by third parties. This occurs, for example, when we use:

• Analytics tools to measure and improve website performance.
• Online booking systems or widgets provided by external partners.
• Embedded content (for example, maps, videos or social media buttons), where the external service may set its own cookies.

These third parties are responsible for the cookies they set and for their own use of the data. We encourage you to review their respective privacy and cookies policies for more information.

5. How to manage or disable cookies

You have several options to manage cookies on your device:

• Browser settings: most browsers allow you to see which cookies are stored on your device and to delete them, block all cookies or receive a warning before a cookie is stored.
• Cookie controls on the site (if available): if we provide a cookie banner or preference centre, you can use it to accept, refuse or customise certain categories of cookies (except those that are strictly necessary).

The way to manage cookies depends on the browser you use. You can usually find this information in your browser’s “Help” or “Settings” menu.

Please note that if you choose to block or delete certain cookies, some features of the website may not function correctly or some pages may not display optimally.
