Cookie Policy
Last updated: 31 August 2026
What we actually use
FYStay keeps cookies to a minimum. We only use cookies that are strictly necessary to run the site - we don't use any analytics, advertising, or third-party tracking cookies today.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session cookie | Keeps you signed in to your account. Strictly necessary - the site can't function without it once you've logged in. | Until you log out, or expires automatically |
| Cookie notice preference | Remembers that you've seen and dismissed the cookie notice, so it doesn't show again on your next visit. | Stored on your device until cleared |
Payment
When you check out, you're briefly taken to Stripe's own secure checkout page. Stripe may set its own cookies while you're on their domain, governed by Stripe's own privacy and cookie policy, not this one.
Why there's no cookie preference toggle
UK rules on cookies (PECR) only require your consent for non-essential cookies, such as analytics or advertising. Since FYStay doesn't use any of those, there's nothing non-essential to ask your permission for - the notice you see is purely informational. If that ever changes (for example, if we add analytics in future), we'll update this page and add a proper consent choice before we do.
See our Privacy Policy for how we handle personal data more broadly.
