Cookie Policy
Last updated: 31 March 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Everstay uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website or use our platform. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device, remember your preferences, and provide you with a better experience. Cookies may also be used to measure how people use our website so we can improve it.
Similar technologies — such as pixels, local storage, and session storage — work in comparable ways and are also covered by this policy.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies on our website (everstay.earth) and within the Everstay platform for the following purposes:
Essential cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the website and platform to function. They enable core features such as user authentication, session management, and security. You cannot opt out of essential cookies — without them, the Service cannot operate correctly.
- Authentication tokens to keep you logged in during a session
- Session identifiers to maintain platform state
- Security cookies to protect against cross-site request forgery (CSRF)
Analytics cookies
We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are most visited, how long people spend on them, and where they come from. This helps us improve the website and our product.
- Page views and session duration
- Traffic sources (e.g. direct, search, social media)
- Device type and browser information
Marketing and tracking cookies
These cookies are set by third-party services we use, such as HubSpot, to track interactions with our website and attribute them to marketing campaigns. They help us understand which content and channels drive interest in Everstay.
- HubSpot tracking cookie (hubspotutk) — tracks your website session to associate demo form submissions with a visitor history
- Referrer attribution — records the page you came from when submitting a demo request
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services we use. These providers have their own privacy and cookie policies:
- HubSpot — used for CRM and lead tracking. HubSpot may set the hubspotutk cookie to identify returning visitors and associate form submissions with a contact record. See HubSpot's Privacy Policy for more information.
- Vercel — our hosting provider may set technical cookies for performance and security purposes.
We do not control third-party cookies and recommend reviewing the relevant providers' cookie policies for full details.
4. Cookie Retention Periods
- Session cookies — deleted automatically when you close your browser
- Authentication cookies — retained for the duration of your logged-in session, typically up to 7 days
- HubSpot tracking cookie (hubspotutk) — retained for up to 13 months
- Analytics cookies — typically retained for 12–24 months depending on the tool
5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
When you first visit our website, you will be shown a cookie consent banner. You can choose to accept or decline non-essential cookies at that point.
You can also manage or withdraw your consent at any time by:
- Adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies (see your browser's help documentation for instructions)
- Contacting us at info@everstay.earth to request removal of tracking data we hold about you
6. Impact of Disabling Cookies
If you disable essential cookies, parts of the Everstay platform may not function correctly, including login and session management. Disabling analytics or marketing cookies will not affect your ability to use the platform, but will limit our ability to understand and improve the product.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our technology or applicable law. Any significant changes will be communicated via our website or by email. The date of the most recent update is shown below.
