Cookie Policy

Last updated 2026-10-12

1. What this policy covers

This policy explains how noburesidencesmaldives.com (the "Website") uses cookies and similar technologies, what they do, and how you can control them. It forms part of our Terms & Conditions and should be read with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data.

The Website is operated by Sarat International, M Iysmata, Rabee ee higun, Malé, Maldives ("we", "us", "our"), on behalf of the Nobu Residences, Laamu Atoll - Maldives development.

2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Similar technologies include local storage, which lets a website keep a small amount of information in your browser, and tags or scripts that measure how a page is used. We refer to all of these as "cookies" in this policy.

Cookies are either set by us (first-party cookies) or by a service we use on the Website (third-party cookies). They may last only for your visit (session cookies) or stay on your device until they expire or you delete them (persistent cookies).

3. The cookies we use

Strictly necessary

These are needed for the Website to work and to keep it secure. They do not require your consent.

  • Cookie preference. When you make a choice in our cookie banner, we store that choice in your browser's local storage under the name "nobu-cookie-consent" so that we do not ask you again. It stays until you clear your browser data or change your choice in Cookie Settings.
  • Bot protection on the enquiry form. The form is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks that a submission comes from a person and not an automated script. Cloudflare may set cookies or store data on your device for this purpose. Cloudflare's own privacy policy applies to that processing.

Statistics

These help us understand how the Website is used so that we can improve it. They are set only if you accept them in the cookie banner.

  • Vercel Web Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights measure page views, the pages visited, the country and device type of visitors and how quickly pages load. They do not set cookies on your device. Visitors are counted using an identifier derived from the request that is reset every day and cannot be used to identify you or to track you across other websites.

Marketing

We do not currently use any marketing or advertising cookies on the Website. If we introduce them in future, they will be set only with your consent and this policy will be updated.

4. How to control cookies

You can change your choice at any time by selecting "Cookie Settings" in the footer of the Website. Choosing "Reject" turns off all cookies that are not strictly necessary.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings, including blocking or deleting them. If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the Website, including the enquiry form, may not work.

5. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the services we use change. Any changes will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date.
