WHO ARE WE

This website is operated by Sunseeker London Group.

OUR WEBSITE

This cookie policy relates to your use of our website.

Throughout our website we may link to other websites owned and operated by certain trusted third parties to make additional products and services available to you. These other third party websites may also use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own separate policies. For privacy information relating to these other third party websites, please consult their policies as appropriate.

COOKIES

A cookie is a small text file which is placed onto your device (e.g. computer, smartphone or other electronic device) when you use our website. We use cookies on our website. These help us you and your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions.

For example, we may monitor how many times you visit the website, which pages you go to, traffic data, device type, location data and the originating domain name of your internet service provider. We will also determine the traffic source or campaign that explains how the user reached our site, if the user is a returning visitor or if they accessed our site via our Google Ads or paid social advertising. This information helps us to build a profile of our users and for analytical purposes in order to build further campaigns and make improvements to our website. Some of this data will be aggregated or statistical, which means that we will not be able to identify you individually.

Our website will use Google Analytics cookies to measure user-interactions on websites. Google Analytics is a simple, easy-to-use tool that helps website owners measure how users interact with website content. As a user navigates between web pages, Google Analytics provides website owners JavaScript tags (libraries) to record information about the page a user has seen, for example the URL of the page.

The Google Analytics JavaScript libraries use HTTP cookies to "remember" what a user has done on previous pages / interactions with the website.

Our website uses Hotjar to help us track user mouse movements via a ‘heatmap’ functionality. In order to do this Hotjar Tracking Code cookies are set on a visitor's browser when they visit a website that loads the Hotjar Tracking Code. These cookies allow the Hotjar Tracking Code to function correctly. For further information on our use of cookies, including a detailed list of your information which we and others may collect through cookies, please see below.

For further information on cookies generally, including how to control and manage them, visit the guidance on cookies published by the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org.
