Cookie Policy
Last updated: 10 June 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how the Lombard Street Guide website uses them, and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies (such as localStorage) can store small amounts of data in your browser. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your preferences, and to help site owners understand how their site is used.
2. How we use them
We keep cookie use to a minimum. We only set non‑essential cookies after you give consent through our cookie banner. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time using the Manage Cookies link in the footer of any page.
3. Categories of cookies we use
| Category | Purpose | Consent required? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Keep the site functioning and remember your cookie choice (stored as lombards_cookie_consent in your browser). Without these the site cannot work properly. |
No — always active |
| Analytics | Help us understand, in aggregate, which pages visitors find useful so we can improve our travel content. Only loaded after you click "Accept all". | Yes |
| Advertising (if enabled) | Used by advertising partners such as Google to serve and measure ads. Only loaded after you consent. | Yes |
4. Managing your preferences
You have several ways to control cookies:
- Use our cookie banner to Accept all or Reject non‑essential cookies.
- Reopen the banner any time via the Manage Cookies link in the footer.
- Adjust or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block or remove cookies — see your browser's help pages for instructions.
Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the site works.
5. Third‑party cookies
When analytics or advertising is enabled with your consent, some cookies may be set by third parties (for example Google). Those providers have their own privacy and cookie policies. You can manage personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our practices or the law change. The "Last updated" date above reflects the latest revision.
