Cookie Policy – Max International
1. Introduction
This policy explains how Max International (hereinafter referred to as “we”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. We use cookies based on the choices you make in the consent banner: strictly necessary cookies always work, while optional ones (analytics, marketing) only if you accept them.
2. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer, phone or mobile device when you visit a website. On each visit, the browser sends these files back to the site, allowing it to recognize you and remember certain information (for example, your preferences or the contents of your shopping cart). Cookies can be:Session cookies – stored temporarily and automatically deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies – remain on the device until they expire or you delete them manually. First-party cookies – placed directly by our website. Third-party cookies – placed by external services (for example: Google, Facebook, Twipla), when integrated on the site.
3. Types of cookies we use
This site may use several categories of cookies:
3.1. Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be disabled in our systems. They are usually set only in response to actions you take, such as:navigating between pages;logging into the client area / member account;remembering the selected language;enabling room, table, Spa service or ticket reservations. Without these cookies, the site cannot function properly.
3.2. Functionality cookies
These cookies allow the site to provide enhanced and personalized functionality, such as:remembering certain preferences;integrating widgets (for example, forms, chat, maps, video content).If you disable these cookies, some features of the site may become unavailable or may not work optimally.
3.3. Analytics and performance cookies
These cookies help us understand how the site is used (which pages are visited, how much time users spend on the site, what actions they take), so that we can continuously improve the browsing experience. On the site we use analytics services, such as:Google Analytics 4 (GA4) – analytics service provided by Google;Twipla Analytics (or a similar traffic and interaction analytics service).The information collected through these cookies is aggregated and anonymized; we do not use this data to identify you directly.
3.4. Marketing and advertising cookies (optional)
These cookies may be used to:show ads that are more relevant to your interests;measure the effectiveness of our online marketing campaigns;carry out remarketing (resuming communication with users who have visited the site).Such cookies may be placed by:advertising platforms (for example, Google, Meta/Facebook, Instagram);social networks, when social content is embedded on the site. These cookies are active only if you give your consent for the marketing category in the consent banner.
4. Third-party cookies
Some features of the site involve the use of cookies set by third parties, such as:Google (for Google Analytics 4 and, where applicable, advertising services);Twipla (for traffic analysis and interactions with the site);social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, etc.), if buttons, embeds or social modules are integrated. These third parties have their own privacy and cookie policies, which we recommend you consult for detailed information.
Third-party cookies — the car rental booking module (Rentsyst). The car rental page loads a booking module provided by Rentsyst, an external service. When this module is displayed, Rentsyst may set its own cookies, necessary for it to function (for example, to keep track of the booking step you have reached or the selection made). These cookies are placed and read by Rentsyst, not by MAX International — we do not have access to their content. Their lifespan and exact purposes are described in Rentsyst's cookie policy. If the module also uses cookies that are not strictly necessary (analytics or marketing), these are only loaded after you have given your consent through the site's cookie banner.
5. How you can manage cookies
You have several options for controlling and managing cookies:
5.1. Through the cookie consent banner
On your first visit to the site (and afterwards, if you delete cookies or return after a period of time), we show you a banner through which:you can accept all cookies;you can reject the optional categories (analytics, marketing);you can customize your preferences by category. You can revisit these settings at any time through the “Cookie Settings” option (if available in the footer or in the corner of the page).

GA4 uses cookies to collect information about:how the site is used;which pages are visited;what types of devices are used. The information generated by these cookies is generally transmitted to Google's servers, where it may be stored and processed. If the IP anonymization option is enabled, your IP address is truncated before being transmitted.
