Cookie policy
At Holiday Lettings, we want to make sure that your visit to our website is smooth, reliable and as useful to you as possible. To help us do this, we use cookies and similar technologies (together referred to as "cookies" in this policy).
We let you know about our use of cookies when you first visit our website through a notification banner at the bottom of the page. By continuing to use the site, you consent to our use of cookies. However, you can change your cookie settings, and choose whether or not to accept cookies, at any time through our Cookie Consent Tool. Further information about managing your cookie settings is provided below.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are automatically placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit almost any website. They are stored by your internet browser. Cookies contain basic information about your internet use, but they do not normally identify you personally. Your browser sends these cookies back to the site every time you revisit it, so it can recognize your computer or mobile device and personalize and improve your site experience.
For instance, we use cookies on our website to remember your login details, so you don't have to re-enter them repeatedly during your visit to the site. Other cookies help us to understand what did and didn't interest you about our site, so we can provide you with features that are more relevant and useful to you next time you visit. We also use cookies to analyse how visitors use the site.
We work with third party advertisers to give you access to interesting and exciting travel content through our website. So, as well as setting some cookies ourselves "first party cookies" we also allow some advertisers who display advertisements on our site to set cookies, known as "third party cookies". These cookies record information about your use of advertisements. This helps advertisers to show you advertisements that are more likely to interest you, limit the number of times you may see an advertisement and also to help to improve your online experience.
What types of cookies do we use?
The cookies we use fall into 3 categories. These categories are described below. You can find further information about the cookies in each category by accessing the Cookie Consent Tool.
Essential cookies
These cookies are necessary to help you access and move around our site and use all its features. Without these cookies, our website would not work properly and you would not be able to use certain important features. For example, we use a cookie to keep you signed in during your visit, so the site does not require you to sign in repeatedly to access different pages. We also use essential cookies for fraud detection and prevention purposes.
You will see that you cannot turn off essential cookies through the Cookie Consent Tool. The reason for this is that such cookies are necessary for you to access and use the content and features of the website.
Analytics and customization cookies
At Holiday Lettings, we want to make your experience on our website as helpful, smooth, and enjoyable as possible. We use cookies to help us understand how our website is being used and how we can improve your experience on it. This type of so-called "analytics" cookies can provide us with anonymous information to help us understand which parts of our website interest our visitors and if they experience any errors. We use these cookies to test different designs and features for our sites and we also use them to help monitor how visitors reach our sites.
We also use cookies to save your settings and preferences on our website, such as language preference and information you've previously entered when searching for travel options. Some customization cookies are essential if you want to use certain features of the site.
Advertising and retargeting cookies
Many of the advertisements you see on the Holiday Lettings site are served by Holiday Lettings or it's service providers. But we also allow third parties to collect information about your online activities through cookies and other technologies. These third parties include (1) business partners, who collect information when you view or interact with one of their advertisements on our sites, and (2) advertising networks, which collect information about your interests when you view or interact with one of the advertisements they place on many different websites on the Internet. The information gathered by these third parties is used to make predictions about your characteristics, interests, or preferences, and send you emails; and to display advertisements both on our sites and across the Internet, tailored to your apparent interests.
In addition, you can manage cookies through the settings of your internet browser. You can have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, delete individual cookies or delete all cookies.
Most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of advertising cookies. See www www.aboutads.info/choices/ and www.youronlinechoices.com for useful information on how to do this.
