1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device by your web browser when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to remember your preferences and input details.
2. Our Commitment: Privacy First
At The White House Club, we respect your right to privacy. Our website does not use cookies to track your browsing habits across other sites, nor do we employ any third-party marketing, retargeting, or advertising cookies.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
We use only a limited set of first-party cookies and local storage tokens. They fall under the following categories:
A. Essential Cookies (Strictly Necessary)
These are required for the technical operation of our website, specifically the admin back office and the members' booking portal:
- Session Identifiers: Secure tokens used to authenticate and remember committee officers logging into the
/admindashboard. - State Retention: Used to temporarily store selection choices (such as date selections or slot times) as you navigate through our Room Booking, Event RSVP, and Gym schedule grids.
B. Functionality & Preference Cookies
These cookies enable the website to remember choices you make to provide a more tailored interface:
- Consent Tracking: We use local storage (
white_house_cookies_consent) to record whether you accepted or declined our cookies banner, ensuring you do not see the notice repeatedly. - Interface Settings: Used to save UI settings like sidebar open states or filter selections in the database listings.
4. Cookies & Tokens Deployed
We deploy standard functional local tokens such as white_house_cookies_consent to save cookie preferences, and next-auth.session-token to secure the administrative sessions for club officers. No tracking or marketing scripts are present.
5. Controlling Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in several ways: You can configure your browser to block cookies or clear your cache to reset preferences. *Please note that if you disable all cookies, certain features like administrative login and booking processes may fail to function correctly.*
