Policies

Privacy Policy

What this website collects, why, and what it does not do — including cookies — written to describe how the rebuilt site actually behaves.

The short version

This website collects two things: anonymous traffic statistics, and whatever you type into the contact form. It does not track you across other websites, does not record your screen, and carries no advertising tags.

What we collect

Traffic statistics. We use Google Analytics 4 to count visits and see which pages people read. It tells us how many people visited the rooms and cottages page this week, not who they are. Your IP address is handled by Google and is not stored by us. The tag this site uses is MKL Hospitality Group’s own, so those counts are read as part of the group’s combined reporting across its properties.

We also count clicks to call or open the booking provider, and confirmed successful enquiry submissions. These events include the site name and page path, but no form fields, visitor phone number or query parameters. A booking click does not confirm a completed reservation.

What you send us. If you use the contact form, we receive your name, email address, any phone number you give us, and your message. That reaches the inn’s inbox and is used to answer you. We do not add you to a mailing list.

Reservations. Some of your data is collected when you make or cancel a reservation through our booking provider — name, address, email address, phone number and payment details required to complete a booking. No credit card information is stored on this website; that is handled entirely by the booking provider.

Cookies

This site sets cookies for one purpose: anonymous traffic measurement, through Google Analytics 4. They let us see how many people visited, which pages they read and roughly where in the world they were — not who they are. We set no advertising cookies and no cross-site tracking cookies.

Every browser lets you clear cookies already stored and refuse new ones. This site works with cookies blocked; you will simply not be counted in our statistics.

What we do not do

  • We do not sell or rent your information.
  • We do not run advertising or retargeting tags.
  • We do not use session recording, heatmap or call-recording tools.
  • We do not ask for payment details on this website. Bookings are taken by our booking provider or at the front desk.

Booking

The “Book Now” and “Check Availability” buttons take you to our booking provider’s own site. Your reservation and payment details are handled there, under that provider’s privacy policy, not this one.

Website security

We use HTTPS encryption on this website to help protect your data in transit.

Your choices

You can block cookies in your browser and the site will still work. To ask what we hold about you, or to have an enquiry deleted, email info@seahorseinnobx.com or call +1 (252) 588-3126.

Children

This site is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes

If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted here.
