At Grand Feast Social Hall, we believe in transparency and respect for your privacy. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and the choices you have when you visit our website.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences and improve your experience. Cookies are widely used to make websites work efficiently, and they can be session-based (temporary) or persistent (remain on your device). Grand Feast Social Hall uses cookies to enhance navigation and analyse site traffic.
Our Approach to Cookies
We use cookies responsibly to improve your dining experience online, respecting your privacy and providing transparency. Our commitments include:
- We do not use cookies for intrusive advertising or selling personal data.
- All cookie usage aligns with Australian privacy laws.
- You can control cookies through your browser settings.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable core features like page navigation and access to secure areas. For example, they may remember items in a reservation form. Essential cookies cannot be disabled without affecting site functionality, and they are typically session cookies.
Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website by collecting anonymous information about pages visited and time spent. We use Google Analytics to gather aggregated data. The data is anonymised and used to improve content and user experience. You can opt out via browser settings or Google's opt-out tool.
Functional Cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as language preference or region, to provide enhanced features. For example, they may remember your preferred language. Functional cookies may be set by us or third-party providers. They are not essential but improve your experience.
Third-Party Cookies
External Services
Some pages may include content from third-party services like Google Maps or social media platforms, which may set their own cookies. We do not control these cookies. We recommend reviewing the third party's cookie policy. Examples include Google Maps for location and embedded videos.
Managing Cookies
Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can set your browser to block or alert you about cookies, or delete cookies already stored. Instructions vary by browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). You can usually find cookie settings under 'Privacy' or 'Security'. Disabling cookies may affect site functionality.
Opt-Out Tools
For analytics cookies, you can use opt-out tools provided by third parties, such as the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. You can also adjust ad personalisation settings in your Google account. Visit the Google Analytics opt-out page.
