Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Secret Swimming Holes (“we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. They help websites remember basic information about your visit — for example, that a page loaded correctly or that a preference was saved. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage.

2. Types of cookies we use

Essential cookies

These are required for core Site functionality. Without them, some features may not work as intended.

Analytics cookies (if enabled)

We may use privacy-oriented analytics to understand aggregated traffic — such as which pages are viewed and general device or browser types. We use this information to improve the directory, not to sell data or show personalized advertising. We do not use advertising cookies or ad pixels.

Preference cookies

If the Site saves a setting you choose (for example, a filter or display preference), a cookie or local storage entry may remember that choice on your next visit.

3. Managing cookies

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block all cookies, block third-party cookies, or clear stored data when you close the session. Blocking essential cookies may affect how parts of the Site work.

4. Third-party cookies

Our hosting and infrastructure providers may set cookies or log data needed to deliver the Site securely. Embedded maps or external links (for example, opening directions in a map app) may set cookies on those third-party domains when you leave our Site. We do not integrate third-party advertising networks on Secret Swimming Holes.
