- Store your cookie consent choice so you do not receive the site pop-up notice every single time you open our web pages.
- Detect abnormal repeated page access to protect our booking system from automated fake order submissions.
We will never use cookie stored data to send unsolicited messages, share anonymous browsing records with external third parties, or match cookie data to your full booking personal identity without your separate explicit written consent.
4. Your Full Control & Removal Options For Cookies
You hold complete authority to adjust, restrict or erase all cookies stored on your device at any time, through the below available methods:
- On first website entry: Use the pop-up consent panel to accept or decline non-mandatory analytical and preference cookies before browsing begins.
- Browser level control: Access your device browser’s privacy settings to clear all stored cookie files, block future tracking markers or set automatic cookie deletion rules.
- Repeat consent adjustment: You may reload the cookie selection pop-up at any time via a dedicated link placed at the bottom of every website page to update your opt-in or opt-out choices.
Please note that fully disabling all functional necessary cookies will break core website features including your booking cart storage and reservation form submission function.
5. Third Party Cookie Rules
Our website does not embed external advertising tools or social media sharing plugins that place unregulated third-party tracking cookies onto visitor devices. The only external service providers linked to our platform only place minimal secure functional markers required to complete online booking order processing, and follow matching strict data protection standards.
We have no oversight over tracking files placed by separate external websites you may access via hyperlinks on our pages; those external domains operate under their own independent cookie and privacy rules outside our governance.
6. Policy Update Terms
We may revise this Cookie Policy to align with updated UK data protection requirements or adjustments to our website booking functions. All revised text will publish directly to this page and take full immediate legal effect once live online. All returning website visitors should review this policy periodically to check for updated cookie handling rules.
Full Liability Disclaimer
STARCASTERS LIMITED strictly follows UK data protection laws for all cookie storage and browsing data processing. All non-essential tracking markers will only activate after receiving your clear opt-in consent via the site consent pop-up.
We take no responsibility for website function limitations caused if you choose to fully block or delete all necessary functional cookies from your device browser. Disabling mandatory cookies may lead to loss of cart selections, failed form submissions and interrupted room booking workflows.
We hold zero liability for tracking files placed by external independent websites linked from our platform, as we cannot control their separate data collection and storage practices.
All clauses within this Cookie Policy operate separately from our other website legal documents including Privacy Policy, Booking Terms & Conditions, Refund & Cancellation Policy and Liability Disclaimer. If a single clause of this policy becomes unenforceable under UK law, all remaining cookie handling provisions stay fully valid and active.
