What cookies do
Cookies are small text files stored by a website in your browser. They help a site remember choices, maintain security and understand how pages are used. Clipscoutscoutshlf.com uses a small number of essential cookies and may use optional analytics or functional cookies only where permitted. You can change your choice through your browser settings or by contacting us.
Cookie categories
| Category | Example / duration | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | clipscout-cookie-choice · up to 12 months | Stores your cookie-banner choice and supports basic site operation. These cookies cannot be switched off through our banner. |
| Analytics | Anonymous visit measurement · up to 13 months | Helps us understand page use, performance and broad visitor trends. Set only after consent and configured to minimise personal data. |
| Functional | Preference settings · up to 12 months | Remembers optional choices that improve convenience, such as a selected display or enquiry preference. Set only after consent. |
Consent and local storage
When you first visit, our banner asks whether you wish to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies or review preferences. Your choice is stored in browser local storage so the banner does not interrupt every page view. Local storage is not a cookie, but it serves a similar preference purpose. Rejecting optional technologies does not prevent access to core resort information or the contact page.
Third-party services
Our hosting, analytics or embedded service providers may use their own technologies when enabled. We review providers for security and contractual compliance and do not permit them to use information for purposes outside the service they provide. External websites linked from this site have separate policies. Please review them before submitting information or accepting their cookies.
Browser controls
You can delete existing cookies and block future cookies through your browser's privacy or site-settings menu. In Chrome, open Settings, Privacy and security, then Third-party cookies. In Firefox, open Settings, Privacy & Security. In Safari, open Settings, Privacy. In Microsoft Edge, open Settings, Cookies and site permissions. Menus change over time, so consult the browser's current help pages for detailed instructions.
Blocking all cookies may affect saved preferences, but the essential pages should remain readable. You can also use private browsing, though preferences may be forgotten when that window closes. Browser-based “Do Not Track” signals are handled where technically required, but they do not always provide a complete opt-out from every third-party service.
Updates and contact
We may update this policy when our tools, legal obligations or cookie practices change. The date at the top shows when it was last reviewed. For questions or to ask what technologies are active on a particular visit, contact [email protected] or write to Mountain Retreats AG, Seestrasse 18, 3855 Brienz, Switzerland.
