3. Cookies and technologies used on this website
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They may be used to:
keep the website secure;
enable basic Squarespace functionality;
remember cookie preferences;
support forms and website navigation;
maintain essential technical sessions;
support booking and payment functions when these are requested by the visitor.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent where they are genuinely necessary for the service requested.
Analytics cookies
We may use:
Squarespace Analytics;
Google Analytics.
These tools may help us understand:
which pages are visited;
how visitors find the website;
how visitors interact with the content;
whether the website performs correctly;
how we can improve the website.
Analytics cookies will only be activated after the visitor has given consent, unless a specific configuration qualifies for a legal exemption.
The Squarespace Activity Log is disabled. This does not necessarily disable all Squarespace Analytics functions, so non-essential analytics cookies remain restricted unless consent has been provided.
4. Instagram and Pinterest embeds
Some pages may include embedded content from:
Instagram;
Pinterest.
These embedded services may use cookies or similar technologies and may collect information about the visitor’s device, browser, IP address and interaction with the embedded content.
Instagram and Pinterest embeds are treated as non-essential third-party content and should only load after the visitor has accepted the relevant cookie category.
If the visitor declines non-essential cookies, the embedded content may be replaced by:
a static image;
a placeholder;
a link to the relevant Instagram or Pinterest page.
5. Booking and payment technologies
From 2027, the website may use:
Acuity Scheduling for appointment and experience bookings;
Stripe for payment processing;
Squarespace Payments for payment processing.
These services may use cookies or similar technologies to:
process bookings;
secure payments;
prevent fraud;
remember booking details;
maintain a secure checkout session.
Some cookies may be strictly necessary when a visitor actively chooses to make a booking or payment. Other analytics, advertising or tracking technologies used by these providers will only be activated where the visitor has given consent.
These providers may process personal data according to their own privacy and cookie policies.
6. Services not currently used
At present, The Quiet Paris Guide does not use:
Google Maps;
YouTube embeds;
Vimeo embeds;
advertising cookies;
remarketing or retargeting tools;
advertising pixels.
If these services are added in the future, this Cookie Policy will be updated and the relevant consent settings will be reviewed.
7. Your cookie choices
When you first visit the website, you can:
accept all cookies;
decline non-essential cookies;
manage your cookie preferences.
Strictly necessary cookies remain active because they are needed for the website to function.
You may change or withdraw your consent at any time by selecting:
Cookie Preferences
in the website footer or through the cookie settings link.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before it was withdrawn.
8. How long cookies remain on your device
Some cookies last only for the duration of your browsing session. Others may remain on your device for a longer period, depending on their purpose and the settings of the relevant provider.
The duration may vary according to:
the type of cookie;
whether the cookie is a session or persistent cookie;
the provider placing the cookie;
your browser and device settings.
