Similar technologies
Websites and online services may also use other technologies that store information on, or access information from, your device. These can include local storage, pixels and other technical methods used to provide, secure or understand online services.
In this policy, we use the term “cookies and similar technologies” to describe these technologies collectively.
Why we provide this information
We want you to understand what technologies our website uses, why they are used and the choices available to you.
Some technologies are necessary for the website or a service you request to operate. Other technologies may require your consent or may only be used where another legal exception applies.

Different technologies.
Different purposes.
We use cookies and similar technologies for a limited number of purposes connected with operating the Malin + Forth website and providing our online services.
The rules that apply depend on what a particular technology does. Some technologies can be used without consent where a legal exception applies. Where no exception applies, we will obtain consent before using that technology.
Essential + security
Some technologies are necessary to operate the website, maintain security, manage sessions and provide services that you request.
These may be used without consent where they fall within an applicable legal exception.
Preferences + functionality
Some technologies may remember choices or preferences so that the website or a particular service works in the way you expect.
Depending on their purpose and how they are used, these technologies may operate under a legal exception or may require your consent.
Not every technology appears on every page
The technologies used may vary depending on the page or service you access. For example, additional technologies may be used when you view embedded content, make a booking or proceed to payment.
Technologies can serve more than one purpose
A particular cookie or similar technology may sometimes support more than one function. Where this happens, we consider each purpose and apply the appropriate legal requirements to its use.
Analytics + improvement
We may use limited technologies to understand how our website is used, identify technical issues and improve its content, performance and usability.
Certain statistical analytics may be used without consent where the legal requirements for that exception are met. Where they are not, we will obtain consent before using them.
Embedded + third-party services
Parts of our website and booking journey may use services provided by third parties. These may include embedded content, booking functionality and payment services.
Those providers may use their own cookies or similar technologies when you interact with their services. Whether consent is required depends on the purpose and operation of the technology concerned.

The services behind our website.
Malin + Forth uses a small number of third-party services to operate our website, provide virtual tours, manage bookings and process payments.
These services may use cookies or similar technologies when you visit relevant pages or interact with their features. The technologies used can vary according to the service and your interaction with it.
Squarespace — website
Our website is hosted and managed using Squarespace.
Squarespace may use necessary technologies to operate the website and, depending on our settings, analytics or performance technologies to help us understand how the site is used.
Purpose: Website hosting, security, forms, functionality and website analytics where enabled.
Matterport — virtual tours
We use Matterport to provide interactive virtual tours of Half Moon House.
When you view or interact with a Matterport tour, Matterport may use cookies, local storage and other similar technologies necessary to provide the interactive experience and, depending on its configuration and your choices, for functionality, performance or other purposes.
Purpose: Interactive virtual tours and associated functionality.
Squarespace Scheduling · Acuity Scheduling — bookings
We use Squarespace Scheduling, also known as Acuity Scheduling, to display availability, manage reservations and administer the booking journey for Half Moon House.
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to maintain the booking session, remember booking information and support functionality during the scheduling process.
Purpose: Availability, booking sessions, reservations and booking administration.
Stripe — payments
Stripe will be used to process online payments securely when bookings are made.
When you proceed to payment, Stripe may use cookies or similar technologies to provide its payment services, authenticate transactions, prevent fraud and maintain the security of the payment process.
Malin + Forth does not receive or store your full payment card details.
Purpose: Secure payments, authentication, fraud detection and transaction processing.
When third-party services are used
Some of these services only become active when you use a particular feature. For example, Matterport technologies may be used when you view a virtual tour, scheduling technologies when you begin a booking and Stripe technologies when you proceed to payment.
Each provider is responsible for its own technologies and data-processing activities where it acts independently. Further information is available in the provider’s own privacy and cookie information.

Your choices.
Your control.
Where cookies or similar technologies require your consent, you can choose whether to allow them.
Our website provides controls that allow you to manage your cookie preferences. Technologies that do not fall within an applicable legal exception will not be used for that purpose until the required consent has been obtained.

Necessary technologies may still operate where they are required to provide the website or a service you have requested, or where another applicable legal exception permits their use.
If you disable technologies
Blocking or disabling certain technologies may affect how some parts of the website or third-party services operate. For example, functionality associated with bookings, embedded content or payments may not work as expected if technologies required for those services are prevented from operating.
Manage your preferences
You can choose which optional categories of technology you wish to allow using the cookie-preference controls provided on our website.
You can return to these controls later if you wish to change your choices.
Browser controls
Most web browsers also allow you to view, delete or block cookies through their settings.
