Cookie Policy
A plain-language explanation of how our website uses cookies and similar technologies, and how you can manage your preferences.
Last updated: 1 June 2026
This policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use on the Ban Suk website, and how you can control them. We have tried to keep the language straightforward. If anything is unclear, please contact us and we will be happy to explain further.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the website remember information about your visit — for example, your preferences or whether you have seen a notice before. Cookies cannot run programmes or carry viruses. They are simply small data files.
We also use similar technologies such as local storage (a feature of your web browser), which works in a similar way to cookies but stores data slightly differently.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies and local storage for the following purposes:
- Essential operation: To remember your cookie preferences and ensure the site works correctly.
- Analytics: To understand, in aggregate, how visitors use our site — which pages are visited most, where visitors come from, and how long they spend on the site. This helps us improve the information we provide.
- Marketing: If you have consented, to help us understand whether our advertising is reaching people who may find our services useful. We do not use your browsing behaviour to build personal profiles for third-party advertising purposes.
We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal information such as your name, address, or anything related to a legal matter you may be dealing with.
