Cookie Policy

Effective 1 November 2026.

This page lists the cookies LBeirut Web sets on lbeirut.website and its product hosts. A cookie is a small text file your browser stores and sends back with later requests. We use it to know that this browser is still signed in, and to keep staff tools on the right host.

Necessary

Each cookie below is there so a feature you asked for can work.

First party

LBeirut sets them. An advertising network does not.

No ads

We do not use cookies to follow you across other companies' sites.

What a cookie is

When you sign in, the server sends a cookie. Your browser keeps it and attaches it to the next request, so we can tell this browser from a stranger's. Without it, every click would ask you to sign in again.

A shopper who only looks at a store does not receive the account cookies. One storefront cookie may be set for that visit so the home products stay in place.

The cookies we set

Durations are the maximum. Signing out, or closing a shift, clears the cookie sooner.

Cookies we set from the server are HttpOnly, so page scripts cannot read them, and they are marked Secure on the live site. Three cookies are readable by the page because the screen needs them: pos-staff-ui, appt-staff-ui, and lbeirut_cat.

Your choices

  • Your browser can block or delete cookies. The control is in the browser's privacy or site settings.
  • Deleting user-session signs that browser out. The other account cookies are not set until someone signs in to that tool.
  • There is no advertising opt-in, because we do not set advertising cookies.
