Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies HotEUDeals uses, why we use them, and how you can control them. It complements and forms part of our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They let the site remember your actions and preferences over a period of time. "Similar technologies" include local storage and session storage, which work like cookies but are stored by your browser in different ways. In this policy we use the word "cookies" to cover all of them.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
Essential (strictly necessary)
These cookies are required for the Service to work. They cannot be disabled while you use the site.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| hoteudeals_session | Maintains your session while you browse the site | Up to 120 minutes |
| XSRF-TOKEN | Protects against cross-site request forgery on form submissions | Session |
| market (local storage) | Remembers your chosen market / country so we show the right deals | Until cleared by you |
Analytics
These cookies help us understand, in aggregate, how visitors use the Service so we can improve it. They are set only if you accept analytics cookies.
| Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | Aggregate page-view and event statistics (IP addresses are anonymised) | Up to 26 months |
| Clicky | Real-time traffic statistics, in aggregate | Up to 12 months |
Advertising / Marketing
We do not set advertising or remarketing cookies ourselves. When you click an affiliate link to Amazon, Amazon may set its own cookies on its domain under its own cookie notice — those cookies are controlled by Amazon, not by us.
3. Cookies in the Android App
The HotEUDeals Android app does not use HTTP cookies. It uses local device storage to remember your market preference and to cache images, and it relies on Firebase App Check tokens (not cookies) to prove the app is genuine. See the Privacy Policy for details.
4. How to Control Cookies
You are always in control of cookies:
- Browser settings — every modern browser lets you block, delete, or be notified about cookies. See the help pages of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge.
- Do Not Track — we honour the browser's global privacy control / "Do Not Track" signal for non-essential cookies.
- Clear local storage — you can clear site data from your browser's developer tools or privacy settings at any time.
Please note that blocking essential cookies may break parts of the Service (for example, your language/market selection may not persist).
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable law. The latest version is always available on this page, with the "Last updated" date below.
