Cookie Policy

This policy explains how Book Direct (bookdirect.co.za) uses cookies and similar technologies. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember preferences, keep sessions secure, and understand how pages are used. “Similar technologies” can include local storage or pixels with a similar purpose.

How we use cookies

We may use cookies to:

• Essential: maintain security, load balancing, session state (for example CSRF protection on forms) and basic Site function.
• Preferences: remember choices such as region or display options where we offer them.
• Analytics: understand traffic, popular pages and errors so we can improve performance and content. These may be first- or third-party cookies depending on our analytics setup.
• Marketing: only where you have consented or as permitted by law, to measure campaigns or show relevant content.

Third parties

Embedded content, maps, booking widgets or analytics partners may set their own cookies subject to their policies. We do not control those cookies; please review the relevant third-party notices.

Managing cookies

Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect how the Site works (for example forms or signed-in sessions). You can also use industry opt-out tools where available for advertising cookies.

Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy when our practices or the law change. Check the “Last updated” date above; your continued use of the Site may indicate acceptance of material changes where allowed by law.
