We use three cookies. One keeps you signed in. One lets us show you a booking you have just made when you do not have an account — it does not sign you in to anything. One short-lived safety cookie stops admin sign-in redirects from looping forever. We use no analytics and no tracking service of any kind: nothing you do on this site is measured, profiled, or shared with a third party for advertising.
The rest is your browser's own storage: a small amount of data kept on your device that is not sent anywhere on its own. The cookies are different — your browser sends them back to us automatically with matching requests, which is how we know it is still you or stop a bad redirect loop. Below is everything this website stores, where it is kept, and how long it lasts.
For this visit only means it is erased the moment you close the tab. Until you clear it means it stays until you sign out or clear your browser data.
| What | Where | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your sign-in | Cookie | Keeps you signed in between pages, so you do not have to enter your password again on every screen. Your browser sends it back to us with each request; the page itself cannot read it. | 7 days — removed when you sign out |
| Booking token | Cookie | Lets us show you the booking you just made without asking you to create an account. It does not sign you in to anything. | 24 hours |
| Admin redirect safety check | Cookie | Counts admin page redirects for a few seconds so a broken sign-in flow stops on an error page instead of looping forever. It contains page names only, not your name or password. | 10 seconds — removed after a clean admin page entry or when you clear the device session |
| Who you are signed in as | Browser storage | Your name and email, so a page can greet you without asking us again. It is not a password and cannot sign anyone in. | Until you clear it — removed when you sign out |
| Language | Browser storage | Remembers whether you chose English or Tiếng Việt. | Until you clear it |
| Currency | Browser storage | Remembers whether you chose to see prices in VND or USD. | Until you clear it |
| Dismissed hints | Browser storage | Remembers that you closed a one-off tip on the in-room dining page, so it does not reappear. | Until you clear it |
| Legacy dismissed hints | Browser storage | Remembers that you closed the older in-room dining tip, so it does not reappear on that page. | Until you clear it |
| A one-time reference for your reservation | Browser storage | A random string created when you open the booking form and sent with your reservation, so that pressing the button twice cannot book the same room twice. It says nothing about you, is not linked to your name, and is discarded the moment the reservation goes through. | For this visit only |
| Your booking details, part-finished | Browser storage | The contact details you type on the guest-details step — name, email, phone and any special request — so the payment step can show them back to you without you typing them twice. They are not sent to us until you complete the booking. | For this visit only, and erased after two hours in any case |
| Room-service cart | Browser storage | Keeps the dishes you have added while you are building an in-room dining order. | For this visit only |
| Room-service note | Browser storage | Keeps the note you type for an in-room dining order while you are still editing it. | For this visit only |
| Room-service order reference | Browser storage | Lets you reopen the in-room dining order you just placed and watch its progress. | For this visit only |
| A booking you looked up | Browser storage | When you find a reservation by reference and email, it is held just long enough to show you the confirmation page. | For this visit only |
| Admin redirect trail | Browser storage | Counts admin redirects inside this tab so a broken sign-in flow can stop with a readable error instead of looping forever. | For this visit only, and only for the last 10 seconds |
Closing the tab already removes everything marked "for this visit only", but it does not remove the cookies — only signing out or clearing your browser's site data does that. Clearing your browser's site data for avshotelphuquoc.com removes everything on this page. Signing out removes the sign-in and booking tokens on their own. Nothing here is needed to browse the site or to make a booking — clearing it simply signs you out and returns the language and currency to their defaults.
If anything here is unclear, write to reservation@avshotelphuquoc.com and we'll gladly explain.
