Cookie Policy
Effective date: 14 August 2026
1. About this policy
This Cookie Policy explains how the Corvelliquegrandhaven website may use cookies or similar browser storage technologies. The current project is designed to operate with local front-end resources and does not intentionally require advertising, social-media tracking or remote page-builder dependencies.
2. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website can ask a browser to store on a device. Similar technologies may include local storage, session storage or comparable browser mechanisms. They can support essential functions, remember limited preferences, help maintain security or provide aggregated technical information about website use.
3. Strictly necessary technologies
Essential storage may be used where required for core functionality, security, accessibility, navigation, form behaviour or a user-requested feature. Technologies that are strictly necessary for a service requested by the user are generally treated differently from optional analytics or marketing technologies under applicable privacy and electronic communications rules.
4. Optional analytics
If optional analytics are introduced in the future, they should be configured transparently and, where legally required, should not activate until the user has made an appropriate choice. This version of the website is not intended to load third-party analytics scripts by default.
5. Marketing and advertising
This website is not designed to load third-party advertising or behavioural marketing trackers by default. If such technologies are added later, this policy and any consent interface should be updated before deployment so users receive clear information and any required choice.
6. Local storage and functional preferences
A browser may store limited functional values on the user's device to support preferences or interface behaviour. Any such storage should be limited to what is reasonably necessary for the feature and should not be repurposed for unrelated tracking without appropriate notice and legal basis.
7. Consent where required
Where applicable law requires consent before storing or accessing a non-essential identifier on a device, the relevant technology should remain disabled until valid consent is obtained. Consent should be freely given, specific, informed and capable of being withdrawn as easily as it was given.
8. Managing cookies
Most browsers allow users to inspect, delete or block cookies and other site data. Blocking essential storage can affect functionality. Browser controls differ by product and version, so users should consult their browser settings or help documentation for the available options.
9. Retention
Cookie and browser-storage retention should be limited according to purpose. Session technologies normally expire when a browser session ends, while persistent values remain for a defined period or until deleted. Optional technologies, if introduced, should use proportionate retention periods and be documented clearly.
10. Personal information
An identifier can constitute personal information or personal data when it relates to an identified or reasonably identifiable individual. Where cookie-derived information is personal information, its handling is also governed by the Privacy Policy and applicable privacy law.
11. International visitors
Visitors may have different rights depending on where they are located. If the GDPR applies to processing involving cookies or similar identifiers, transparency, lawful basis and consent requirements may apply. Australian privacy obligations may also apply to personal information generated through website technologies.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy if website technologies, legal requirements or our practices change. New non-essential tracking technologies should not be introduced silently; the published policy and any relevant consent mechanism should be updated accordingly.
13. Contact
Questions about cookies, browser storage or privacy practices may be submitted using the contact details shown below.
14. Current website configuration
At the time of this policy, the site is designed to load its front-end styles, scripts, images and icon resources locally. The contact form is processed in the browser and is not configured to send data to a remote page-builder form endpoint. This reduces unnecessary third-party requests and limits the number of external technologies that could place identifiers on a visitor device.
15. Cookie categories
If cookies are used in future, they should be classified according to purpose. Common categories include strictly necessary cookies for security or requested functionality, functional cookies for preferences, analytics cookies for aggregated measurement, and marketing cookies for advertising or cross-site profiling. Optional categories should not be described as necessary merely because they are convenient to the operator.
16. First-party and third-party cookies
A first-party cookie is set in the context of the website domain being visited. A third-party cookie is generally set or read in connection with a different domain or embedded service. Third-party technologies can create additional privacy and international-transfer considerations, so they should be assessed before deployment and disclosed accurately if introduced.
17. Session and persistent cookies
Session cookies usually expire when the browser session ends. Persistent cookies remain on the device until their configured expiry date or until the user deletes them. Any retention period should be proportionate to the function being performed and should not be extended automatically without a legitimate reason.
18. Consent records
Where consent is required for optional cookies, it may be necessary to keep a limited record of the consent choice, including the version of the notice, the categories accepted or refused, and the time of the choice. Such a record should contain no more information than reasonably necessary to demonstrate and respect the user preference.
19. Withdrawal and change of preference
If optional cookie consent is introduced, users should be able to change or withdraw that choice through an accessible mechanism. Withdrawing consent should stop future non-essential storage or access that depends on consent, although it does not automatically erase information that was lawfully processed before withdrawal unless another legal requirement applies.
20. Browser signals
Browsers and operating systems may provide privacy signals or settings intended to limit tracking. The legal effect and technical meaning of such signals can vary by jurisdiction and implementation. Where a signal has a mandatory legal effect, the website should respond accordingly. Otherwise, browser cookie controls remain an important way for users to manage stored site data.
21. Security and cookies
Cookies should not contain unnecessary sensitive information in plain text. Security-related attributes and transport protections should be used where appropriate to reduce risks such as unauthorised access or cross-site misuse. Any identifier that authenticates or secures a session should be treated as security-sensitive.
22. Embedded content
The current site is not intended to require embedded video or social-media widgets. If embedded third-party content is introduced later, it may set cookies or make network requests before a visitor interacts with it. The privacy impact and consent requirements should therefore be assessed before such content is enabled.
23. Measurement without unnecessary tracking
Where site performance or usage measurement is needed, preference should be given to approaches that minimise personal data, avoid unnecessary cross-site identifiers, use short retention periods, and provide aggregated reporting where practical. Introducing a measurement tool does not remove the need to assess applicable transparency and consent requirements.
24. Questions and complaints
Questions about this Cookie Policy or the use of browser storage can be sent to info@corvelliquegrandhaven.com. Privacy-related complaints concerning information derived from cookies or similar technologies will be handled consistently with the Privacy Policy and applicable privacy law.
