This Cookie Policy explains how The Lamplighter Dining & Rooms (“we”, “us”, “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which sets out how we use personal information more generally.
1. What are cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide information to website owners.
Cookies set by the website you are visiting are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by third parties, such as analytics or advertising providers, are called “third party cookies”.
We also use similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage, which work in a similar way. Where we refer to “cookies” in this policy, we mean cookies and similar technologies.
2. Categories of cookies we use
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function. They enable core features such as security, network management, accessibility, and remembering items in a booking flow. You cannot opt out of these cookies as the site will not function properly without them.
Performance and analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors use our website, by collecting information such as which pages are visited most often, time spent on pages, and any errors encountered. We use this information to improve the website. Where required, we set these cookies only with your consent.
We currently use:
- Google Analytics (provider: Google Ireland Limited).
- Microsoft Clarity (provider: Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited), which records anonymised session recordings and heatmaps to help us understand user behaviour.
Functional cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred language or region, and provide enhanced features. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages.
Advertising and targeting cookies
These cookies are used to deliver advertising that is more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advert and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission and only with your consent.
We may use:
- Google Ads and Google Tag Manager (provider: Google Ireland Limited).
- Meta Pixel (provider: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited) for advertising on Facebook and Instagram.
- Other advertising and remarketing tools we may add from time to time.
3. Booking and reservation widgets
When you make a reservation through our website, you may be redirected to or interact with a third party booking platform. These platforms set their own cookies, which are governed by their own cookie policies. Please review their policies before completing a booking.
