Cookies
In the GDPR, we see cookies mentioned in Recital 30, which states:
“NATURAL PERSONS MAY BE ASSOCIATED WITH ONLINE IDENTIFIERS…SUCH AS INTERNET PROTOCOL ADDRESSES, COOKIE IDENTIFIERS OR OTHER IDENTIFIERS…. THIS MAY LEAVE TRACES WHICH, IN PARTICULAR WHEN COMBINED WITH UNIQUE IDENTIFIERS AND OTHER INFORMATION RECEIVED BY THE SERVERS, MAY BE USED TO CREATE PROFILES OF THE NATURAL PERSONS AND IDENTIFY THEM.”
The idea is relatively simple: cookies can be used to uniquely identify a person, therefore we treat them as personal data. It will affect those identifiers used for analytics, advertising, but also those used for functional services like chats and surveys.
When you visit the website,
www.room57.com, you will be greeted with a cookie consent pop-up with more information than usual. Here you can choose to opt-in any particular areas and remain out of others. This can be changed at any time during your visit. It is important to note that remaining opted out of all the cookies will result in a limited experience.
Room57 does not store these cookies and they are only used during your visit.
Privacy Policy Changes

Room57 encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. If you have a Room57.com account, you might also receive an alert informing you of these changes.
