Cookies are small data files that a website can place on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit it.
They can perform a number of functions, such as allowing a website to operate correctly, remembering choices, maintaining secure sessions and helping website operators understand how visitors use their websites.
Some cookies last only for the duration of your browser session and are deleted when you close your browser. Others may remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them.
Similar technologies may perform comparable functions, and references to “cookies” in this Policy include such technologies where appropriate.
We aim to keep the use of cookies on oceanviewresidences.ph to a minimum.
The Site may use cookies for the following purposes:
We do not currently use cookies for third-party behavioural advertising or to sell information about our visitors to advertisers.
Strictly necessary cookies support functions required for the website to operate securely or correctly.
These cookies may include authentication or session cookies used by authorised Cormorant personnel to access restricted website-administration facilities.
They are not used to track ordinary visitors for advertising or marketing purposes.
Because these technologies are necessary for the relevant functionality or security of the Site, they may operate without optional analytics consent where permitted by applicable law.
Subject to your consent, we use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to help us understand how visitors use the Site.
Google Analytics may provide information such as:
We use this information to understand the performance of the Site and identify ways in which it can be improved.
Google Analytics will only be enabled where the appropriate analytics consent has been provided through our cookie controls.
If you decline optional analytics cookies, the Site should remain available for normal browsing and enquiries.
When you first visit the Site, you may be presented with a cookie notice or consent control.
Where consent is required, you can choose whether to permit optional analytics cookies.
Your decision concerning optional cookies should not prevent you from accessing the ordinary public content of the Site.
You may change or withdraw your consent for optional cookies at any time using the control below. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that lawfully occurred before consent was withdrawn.
Use the button below to reset your choice — the cookie banner will appear again on your next page view so you can pick again.
The table below lists the cookies actually set by the Site today, their purpose, how long they last, and whether they require your consent.

This table is kept up to date as the Site's own code changes. If a new booking, payment or third-party integration is added in future and it sets its own cookies, this table and our consent controls will be updated accordingly.
The Site may link to or, in the future, incorporate services supplied by third parties, such as:
Simply following a link to an external website may take you to a service that operates under its own privacy and cookie policies.
Where third-party content is embedded directly within our Site, that provider may place cookies or use similar technologies. Where consent is legally required for such technologies, we will seek the appropriate consent before activating them.
We encourage visitors to review the privacy and cookie information provided by relevant third-party services.
The Site is hosted using Vercel infrastructure.
Hosting and security systems may process technical information such as IP addresses, browser information, timestamps, requested pages and security information in server logs.
Server logs are not necessarily cookies and should not be confused with cookies stored on your device.
Further information about our handling of technical information is provided in our Privacy Policy.
Most web browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies through their privacy or security settings. You can generally configure your browser to:
Blocking strictly necessary cookies or related storage technologies may affect the operation of certain website functions. Browser controls operate independently from the cookie-consent controls provided by our Site.
If you would rather Google Analytics never runs in your browser at all, on any site, Google provides a browser add-on that blocks it: Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
We do not currently use cookies to create behavioural advertising profiles or to sell information about Site visitors to advertisers.
If this changes in the future, this Cookie Policy and our cookie-consent arrangements will be updated before such technologies are introduced where required.
The technologies used by the Site may change as its functionality develops.
For example, future accommodation bookings, diving bookings, payment facilities, maps, video content or other third-party integrations may require additional technologies.
Where a material change affects the cookies or similar technologies used by the Site, we will update this Policy and, where necessary, update our consent controls.
The latest version of this Policy will always display its revision date at the top of the page.
Cookies and information obtained through them are handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data-protection requirements. For more information about the personal information we collect, how it is used, how long it is retained and your rights under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, please read our Privacy Policy.
