Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 15 May 2025
Effective Date: 15 May 2025
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies the Sai Lok website uses, why we use them and how you can manage your preferences. We want to be straightforward with you about this, so we have kept the explanation as clear as possible.
This Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions. For questions, contact us at [email protected].
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit. They are widely used to help websites work correctly, to remember your preferences and to provide information to site owners about how visitors use their site.
Cookies do not typically contain information that directly identifies you. However, in combination with other data, they may be considered personal data under Hong Kong's Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap. 486). Where this is the case, we handle that data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use two categories of cookies on this website:
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They do not store any information that identifies you personally and are set in response to actions you take, such as using the navigation or submitting an enquiry form. You can set your browser to block them, but parts of the site may then not work as intended.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
sl_cookie_consent |
Records whether you have acknowledged the cookie notice, so it is not shown again on subsequent visits. | 1 year |
PHPSESSID |
A standard session identifier used by the server to maintain your session while you navigate between pages. | Session (deleted when you close your browser) |
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website — for example, which pages are visited most, how long visitors stay and whether any pages produce errors. This information is used in aggregate form and helps us improve the site. Analytics cookies are only set with your consent, which you can give or withdraw via the cookie notice.
| Cookie Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga |
Google Analytics | Distinguishes users for aggregate reporting on site usage. Data is anonymised before being sent to Google. | 2 years |

Analytics providers process data on servers that may be located outside Hong Kong. Where applicable, we rely on standard data transfer mechanisms and the providers' own data processing agreements.
3. How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences
When you first visit our website, a notice is shown at the bottom of the page. Essential cookies are already active; by dismissing the notice you accept that they will remain in use. Analytics cookies are only activated if you choose to accept them.
You can also manage cookies directly in your browser. Most browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies at any time. The links below lead to instructions for the most commonly used browsers:
Please note that blocking all cookies may affect the way the website functions. Essential cookies are required for the contact form and navigation to work correctly.
4. Changes to This Policy
