Cookie Policy
Last Updated: May 1, 2025
This Cookie Policy explains how Riviera Stays ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at riviera-stays.com. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Riviera Stays) are called "first-party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies". Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
Why do we use cookies?
We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our website. Third parties serve cookies through our website for advertising, analytics and other purposes.
The specific types of first and third-party cookies served through our website and the purposes they perform are described below:
- Essential website cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas. Without these cookies, services you have asked for, like booking information, cannot be provided.
- Performance and functionality cookies: These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our website but are non-essential to their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionality may become unavailable.
- Analytics and customization cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customize our website for you. We use analytics cookies such as Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors engage with our properties.
- Advertising cookies: These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers, and in some cases selecting advertisements that are based on your interests.
- Social Media cookies: These cookies are used to enable you to share pages and content that you find interesting on our website through third-party social networking and other websites. These cookies may also be used for advertising purposes.

How can you control cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences in the following ways:
- Browser settings: You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website though your access to some functionality and areas of our website may be restricted.

- Specific opt-out pages: For cookies set by third parties, you can also manage your consent by visiting the relevant opt-out pages:
Do Not Track
Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. These features are not yet uniform, so we do not currently respond to such signals. However, you can use the range of other tools we provide to control data collection and use, including the ability to opt out of receiving targeted advertising from us as described above.
Cookies and Children
Our website is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children through cookies. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can delete the information.
Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
