Cookie Policy

Last updated: 25 June 2026  |  Great Lake Lounge  |  GreatLakeLounge.com

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to improve the user experience, and to provide website operators with information about how their site is being used.

Cookies can be "session cookies" — which are deleted when you close your browser — or "persistent cookies", which remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them manually.

2. How We Use Cookies

Great Lake Lounge uses cookies for the following purposes:

2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function correctly. They include cookies that remember your cookie consent preference (stored in localStorage), which enables us to avoid showing the consent banner on every page visit. These cookies cannot be disabled as they are fundamental to the operation of the site.

2.2 Analytics Cookies

We may use analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are visited most frequently, how long visitors spend on the site, and where they come from. This information helps us improve the website experience. Analytics data is collected in aggregate and does not identify individual visitors.

2.3 Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how the website performs — loading speeds, error rates and other technical metrics. They help us identify and resolve issues that might affect your experience.

3. Cookies We Set Directly

The following cookie (stored in localStorage) is set directly by our website:

• gll_cookie_consent — Stores your cookie consent preference (accepted or declined). This is stored in localStorage rather than as a traditional cookie, but serves the same functional purpose. It persists until cleared by the user.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Our website may load resources from third-party services, including Google Fonts (for typography). These services may set their own cookies. We do not control the cookies set by third-party services and recommend reviewing their respective privacy and cookie policies for further information.

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage your cookie preferences in the following ways:

• Cookie banner: When you first visit our site, a cookie consent banner allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your preference is saved in localStorage.
• Browser settings: Most web browsers allow you to view, manage and delete cookies through their settings. Refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions specific to your browser.
• Clearing localStorage: You can clear localStorage data through your browser's developer tools or privacy settings. This will reset your cookie consent preference and the banner will appear on your next visit.

Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website or your browsing experience.

6. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The date of the most recent update is shown at the top of this page.
