Cookie Policy

This website uses both first-party and third-party cookies to provide visitors with the best possible browsing experience and services tailored to their needs and interests.

In accordance with the European Parliament and Council Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and the relevant national data protection legislation, all website visitors are asked for consent before cookies are placed on their devices.

When you visit our website, personal data is not transmitted to our server unless you actively provide it. The only exceptions are technically necessary cookies, which are essential for the website’s operation.

The Google Analytics web analysis tool is configured so that data is recorded anonymously and cannot be traced back to individual users.

All other technologies from external providers (e.g., Google Maps, YouTube plugins) are disabled by default, so no data is transmitted to third parties when you visit our website.

You have the option to accept other cookies via the cookie banner or to enable external content to improve the functionality and content of the website. In this case, third-party providers may access your personal data.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Thanks to cookies, the website remembers your actions and preferences (login, language, font size, and other display settings) for a certain period. This way, you don’t have to re-enter them every time you visit the website or navigate between pages.

Cookies can also contain personal data, such as your IP address. Therefore, we store cookies only if you have explicitly allowed them in the website’s cookie settings. You can revoke your consent at any time in the browser’s security settings.

An exception is made for technically necessary cookies. Without these, you cannot visit or navigate the website. These cookies are generally enabled by default.

You can also generally disable cookies in your browser at any time, which prevents them from being stored on your device. Please note that completely disabling cookies may cause functionality issues with the website.

How cookies are used

There are generally three types of cookies:

  • Necessary cookies: Enable the website to function, providing basic features such as page navigation and access to secure areas. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.
  • Statistical cookies: Collect and report information anonymously and help website owners understand how visitors interact with the website.
  • Marketing cookies: Track visitors across websites to provide relevant and engaging advertising.

There is also an unclassified cookies category, which is in the process of being classified into one of the three main categories.

The www.hotelcrystal.ro domain uses necessary, functional, and statistical cookies.

What are third-party cookies?

Certain sections of the website’s content may be provided by third parties. These third parties may place cookies through the website (“third-party cookies”) because they are not placed by the website owner. Third-party providers must also comply with applicable law and the website owner’s privacy policies.

Cookie lifespan

Cookies are managed by web servers. The lifespan of a cookie may vary depending on its purpose:

  • Session cookies: Used only for a single session and are deleted when the visitor leaves the website.
  • Persistent cookies: Retained and reused every time the visitor returns to the website.

Visitors can delete cookies at any time through their browser settings.

How to control cookies

You can control and/or delete cookies as you wish – for details, see https://www.aboutcookies.org. You can delete all cookies from your device and set most browsers to block them. If you do so, you may need to manually set some preferences each time you visit the website. Some services or options may not function without cookies.
