Cookie Policy
Last updated: June 27, 2026
1. What This Policy Covers
This Cookie Policy explains how Silvercroft Inn uses cookies and similar browser-storage technologies on silvercroftinn.com, and how you can control them.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. Browsers also provide "local storage" — a similar mechanism that lets a site remember settings between visits without sending data to a server. We rely mainly on local storage.
3. What We Use and Why
| Entry | Type | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| Age confirmation flag | Local storage | Remembers that you confirmed you are 18+ so the age prompt is not shown on every page | Until you clear browser data |
| Cookie choice flag | Local storage | Remembers whether you accepted or declined the cookie notice | Until you clear browser data |
| Hosting/security cookies | Cookie | May be set by our hosting provider to keep the site secure and balanced across servers | Session or short-lived |
4. What We Do Not Use
We do not use advertising cookies, cross-site tracking, or social-media pixels. We do not sell information derived from cookies to anyone.
5. Your Choices
You can accept or decline non-essential storage using the banner shown on your first visit. You can also delete or block cookies and local storage at any time through your browser settings:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Blocking all storage may mean the age prompt and cookie notice appear on every visit.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time; the date above reflects the latest version.
