Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are saved to your device when you browse a website. These files help the website recognize your browser or device during current or future visits. They can help with things like keeping you logged in, remembering your preferences (such as language or currency), and making sure booking forms and site navigation work as expected. Cookies may also be used to understand how visitors interact with the website, so we can make improvements and offer a better user experience.

2. Why We Use Cookies

Cookies allow us to provide the functionality and reliability you expect from LetUsStay.ca. Some cookies are necessary to run core features like login and secure form submissions. Others help us learn how users engage with the site, so we can identify areas to improve. Occasionally, cookies may also support our marketing efforts by measuring how well our content or campaigns perform. In every case, we aim to use cookies responsibly and with your control in mind.

3. Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are required for the website to function. They cannot be disabled because they perform basic tasks such as maintaining your login session, loading pages securely, and protecting your activity from malicious threats. For example, our platform uses a PHP session cookie to manage your session as you move between pages. Without this cookie, the site would not be able to remember who you are or complete your bookings.

Additionally, because we use the Laravel framework, a security cookie called a CSRF token is automatically generated during your session. This token helps protect you from cross-site request forgery attacks by ensuring that any request you send comes directly from you and not from a malicious third party. These cookies are purely technical and do not store any personal or identifying information.

4. Optional Cookies

Aside from essential cookies, we may also use optional cookies to analyze how the website is used or to provide you with a more personalized experience. These may include cookies from third-party analytics tools such as Google Analytics, which help us understand which pages are popular or where users might get stuck. In some cases, optional cookies may also support advertising campaigns or referral tracking.

We will always ask for your explicit consent before setting any optional cookies, especially if you are located in a jurisdiction like the European Union. When you visit our site, you will see a cookie consent notice that lets you choose which types of cookies you're comfortable with. Your decision will not affect your ability to use essential features of the site.

5. EU Cookie Consent and GDPR Compliance

For users in the European Union or European Economic Area, we are fully committed to complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This means we do not activate non-essential cookies until you have made a clear choice to allow them. You can give, withdraw, or adjust your cookie preferences through the banner that appears when you first visit our site, or by clearing cookies in your browser settings at any time.

Let Us Stay respects your right to privacy and data control. We only collect and process data that is necessary, and we give you full control over whether to allow cookies beyond those needed to run the website.

6. How to Manage Cookies

You have the ability to control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Each browser gives you options to block, allow, or delete cookies entirely. However, please note that disabling essential cookies may cause parts of the website to stop working as intended, such as login functionality or checkout forms.

For best performance and full access to LetUsStay.ca, we recommend allowing at least essential cookies. If you wish to limit or manage cookies, check your browser’s documentation for instructions on how to adjust settings for cookies, site data, and tracking.

7. Changes to This Policy

Let Us Stay may update this Cookies Policy as needed to reflect changes in legal requirements, website features, or cookie usage. When we make updates, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be highlighted through a notification on our site or during your next visit.

We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies and how you can manage your preferences.
