Cookies Policy

Last updated: April 2026  ·  Snowdonia Breaks Limited

Cookies have a much better reputation as baked goods than as website technology. We'll do our best to explain what they are, which ones we use, and what you can do about them if you'd rather not have them sitting around.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They're used for all sorts of things — keeping you logged in, remembering your preferences, and (in some cases) tracking how you use a site for analytics or advertising purposes.

Not all cookies are equal. Some are essential to the website working at all. Others are optional, and you have the right to refuse them. We'll tell you exactly which is which.

Cookies we currently use

Right now, snowdoniabreaks.com uses a very small number of cookies — only what's needed to keep the booking system working.

Name Type Purpose Duration
PHPSESSID Essential A standard PHP session cookie. It keeps track of your session while you browse the site — for example, holding your booking details as you move through the booking form. No personal data is stored in this cookie itself. Session (deleted when you close your browser)

That's it, currently. No advertising cookies. No third-party tracking. No remarketing pixels.

Google Analytics (coming soon)

We plan to add Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors use the site — which pages are popular, where people come from, that sort of thing. This information is aggregate and anonymous, and it helps us improve the site over time.

Google Analytics uses cookies to do this, and those cookies are optional — you'll need to consent before we set them. When we add Analytics, we'll update this page and add a cookie consent notice to the site. Until then, it's just the one session cookie above.

Name Type Purpose Duration
_ga Pending consent Google Analytics — distinguishes unique visitors. Not yet active. 2 years
_ga_* Pending consent Google Analytics — maintains session state. Not yet active. 2 years

How to manage or delete cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Every major browser lets you view, manage, and delete cookies. You can also set your browser to block cookies by default — though be aware that blocking all cookies may break certain website features (like the booking form).

Here are the cookie settings pages for the most common browsers:

Google Chrome → Mozilla Firefox → Safari → Microsoft Edge →

You can also opt out of Google Analytics tracking specifically (across all sites) using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Changes to this policy

If we start using new cookies — particularly when Google Analytics goes live — we'll update this page and add a consent notice to the site. We won't set optional cookies without telling you first.

Questions

If you have questions about cookies or how we handle your data, take a look at our Privacy Policy or get in touch. We're a small operation — there's always a real person on the other end.
