This Cookie Policy explains how Mendez Web Studio Ltd (company number 16956731) of 50b Southwark Bridge Road, London, England, SE1 0AR (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on Your Session Bookings / YourSessionBookings.com and related pages/apps/services (the “Platform”).
This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1) What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site work properly, remember your preferences, and (if enabled) help us understand how the Platform is used.
We may also use similar technologies that store or access information on your device, such as local storage, pixels, tags, and SDKs (together referred to as “cookies” in this policy).
2) Why we use cookies
We use cookies to:
-
keep the Platform working (security, login, session management),
-
remember preferences (where enabled),
-
understand Platform performance and usage (where enabled),
-
improve reliability and detect fraud/abuse,
-
measure marketing performance and show relevant promotions (only where enabled and permitted).
Under UK/EU rules, non-essential cookies generally require user consent, and consent must be a clear positive action (not just “continuing to browse”).
3) Cookie categories we use
We group cookies into the following categories:
A) Strictly necessary cookies (always on)
These are required for the Platform to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are used for things like:
-
page navigation and core functionality,
-
security and fraud prevention,
-
load balancing,
-
login/session management and remembering that you’re signed in.
Because these cookies are strictly necessary to provide the service you request, they do not require consent (but we still explain them here).
B) Functional / preference cookies (optional)
These cookies help remember choices you make (for example, language or display preferences) to provide a more personalised experience.
C) Analytics / performance cookies (optional)
These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Platform (for example, which pages are visited and how users move around the site) so we can improve performance and usability. Analytics cookies are typically non-essential and should only be used when you consent.
D) Marketing / measurement cookies (optional)
These cookies may be used to measure marketing effectiveness and, where applicable, deliver relevant promotions. These are non-essential and are only used if you consent (and where permitted by law).
4) How we collect and manage cookie consent
When you first visit the Platform (and periodically thereafter), you will see a cookie banner / consent tool that allows you to:
-
accept all non-essential cookies,
-
reject non-essential cookies, and/or
-
customise your preferences by category.
We only set non-essential cookies after you give consent via a clear affirmative action. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time using the cookie settings option available on the Platform.
5) Third-party cookies and third-party services
Some cookies may be set by third parties whose services we use (for example, infrastructure, analytics, communications, or embedded tools). Where we use such tools, they may set cookies on your device if enabled by your cookie preferences.
Payments note: If a Service Provider requires upfront payment, the “Pay” or “Submit booking” flow may redirect you to a third-party payment processor (such as Stripe). Any cookies set on the payment processor’s pages are controlled by that processor under its own cookie/privacy policies (we do not control them).
6) Cookie duration (session vs persistent)
Cookies may be:
-
Session cookies: deleted when you close your browser, or
-
Persistent cookies: remain until they expire or you delete them.
The exact duration depends on the cookie. Where possible, we minimise how long non-essential cookies persist and rely on consent-based settings.
7) How to control cookies in your browser
In addition to our cookie consent tool, you can control cookies through your browser settings, including deleting stored cookies or blocking future cookies.
Please note: blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of the Platform to stop working (e.g., login or booking functionality).
8) Practical setup note (how you’ll see this on the Platform)
For transparency and ease of maintenance, we aim to make the most up-to-date list of cookies available via:
-
the cookie banner “preferences” panel, and/or
-
a “Cookie Settings” link on the Platform.
This ensures the cookie list reflects the actual services enabled at any time (for example, analytics or marketing tools you may switch on/off).
9) Changes to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The latest version will be posted on the Platform with the updated date.
