What cliffsidecollection.com stores on your device, why, how long it stays there, and how to change your mind at any time.
Last updated 1 May 2026
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store. Similar technologies — local storage, pixels and tags — do much the same job. On this site, local storage is what remembers that you have confirmed your age and made a cookie choice, so you are not asked again on every page.
When you first arrive, a banner offers three options: Accept All, Reject All, or Cookie Settings, where you can switch analytics and marketing on or off individually. Essential cookies cannot be switched off, because the site does not function without them. Nothing beyond the essential category is set until you choose.
To change your choice later, clear this site's data in your browser settings and reload the page — the banner will appear again.
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| cc_age_ok | Remembers that you confirmed you are 20 or over, so the age gate is not shown again | Local storage | Until cleared |
| cc_cookie_prefs | Stores your cookie choice so we do not ask on every page | Local storage | Until cleared |
| PHPSESSID | Session identifier used when submitting the enquiry form | Cookie | Session |
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Distinguishes visitors so we can count how many people use each page | Cookie | 13 months |
| _ga_<id> | Keeps session state for the same analytics measurement | Cookie | 13 months |
Analytics tell us which pages are read and which are ignored — for example, whether guests use the rooms page or go straight to the enquiry form. The reports we see are aggregated; we do not use them to identify individuals.
| Name | Purpose | Type | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _fbp | Measures whether an advertisement led to a booking enquiry, and supports remarketing | Cookie | 90 days |
| _gcl_au | Attributes an enquiry to an advertising campaign | Cookie | 90 days |
We do not use marketing cookies to advertise gambling, and we do not target advertising at people who have self-excluded from our gaming lounge.
Where we link to a map, a support service or a tour operator, that link takes you to a third-party website which sets its own cookies under its own policy. We do not control those, and we suggest reading the policy of any site you go on to use.
Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies. Blocking all cookies will stop parts of this site working — the age confirmation and cookie banner will reappear on every page, and the enquiry form may not submit.
Where cookie data can be linked to you, it is personal information and our Privacy Policy applies. That policy explains your rights of access and correction under the Privacy Act 2020, and how to complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.
Questions about this policy: [email protected], or write to Cliffside Collection Hospitality Ltd, 118 Lake Esplanade, Queenstown 9300, Otago, New Zealand.
The gaming lounge at Cliffside Collection is reserved for adults aged 20 and over, in line with New Zealand law.
