Cookie Policy
Last updated: 10 June 2026
1. What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember certain information between pages or visits — for example, whether you have already seen a notice or which language you prefer. Cookies do not give us access to your device, and they do not run programs or carry viruses.
Similar technologies — such as local storage — work in a comparable way and are covered by this policy.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for three purposes:
- Essential cookies — needed for the website to function. These handle things like remembering your cookie consent choice so we do not ask you repeatedly. You cannot opt out of these.
- Analytics cookies — help us understand which pages are visited most, how long visitors stay, and whether any part of the site has a technical problem. This data is aggregated and does not identify you as an individual.
- Functional cookies — remember small preferences to improve your experience, such as whether you have previously dismissed a notice.
We do not use advertising cookies, tracking cookies, or any cookies placed by social media platforms.
3. Cookies We Use
The table below lists the cookies currently active on this website.

Third-party services such as Google Maps (embedded on our homepage) may also set their own cookies when you interact with the map. These are governed by Google's own cookie policy.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Two third-party services on our website may place cookies:
- Google Analytics — provides anonymised usage statistics. Data is processed by Google LLC under their privacy policy. IP addresses are anonymised before storage.
- Google Maps — an embedded map on our homepage. Cookies from Google Maps are only set if you interact with the map element directly (for example, by zooming or clicking). If you do not interact with the map, no Google Maps cookie is placed.
We do not embed social media buttons, advertising networks, or affiliate tracking on this website.
5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
When you first visit our website, a small notice will appear asking for your consent to optional (analytics and functional) cookies. You can accept all, or decline optional cookies and allow only essential ones.
You can change your preference at any time by clearing the nw_cookie_consent value from your browser's local storage, which will cause the notice to reappear on your next visit. Most browsers also provide tools to manage or delete cookies directly:
- Chrome — Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox — Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari — Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge — Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Blocking or deleting essential cookies may affect how the website functions. Blocking analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use the site.
6. Legal Basis
We rely on your consent as the legal basis for placing analytics and functional cookies, in line with Thai PDPA requirements and applicable e-privacy principles. Essential cookies are placed without consent because they are strictly necessary for the website to operate.
You may withdraw your consent at any time by following the steps described in section 5. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of cookie use before the withdrawal.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this cookie policy from time to time, for example if we add a new service or tool to our website. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page occasionally to stay informed.
