Last updated: 14 January 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Taldora Review uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit taldora.info. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites function efficiently, to retain your preferences between visits, and to provide information about how the site is used.

1. Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are required for the basic functioning of this website. They cannot be disabled through the cookie consent banner because the site cannot function properly without them. No personal data is collected by essential cookies beyond what is strictly necessary.

2. Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how readers use the site — which articles are read most, how long readers stay on a page, and how they arrive at taldora.info. This information is collected in aggregate and is not linked to individual identities. Analytics cookies are only placed with your consent.

Google Analytics is configured with IP anonymisation enabled. We do not share analytics data with third-party advertising networks.

3. Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enable enhanced features such as remembering your preferred reading font size or display preferences. These cookies do not track you across sites. They are only placed with your consent.

Name Purpose Duration
ui_prefs Stores display preferences set by the reader within the site interface. 6 months

4. Third-Party Content and Embeds

Some pages on taldora.info include embedded content from third-party providers — for example, map embeds on the contact page served by Google Maps. When you load a page containing such content, the third-party provider may set cookies on your device according to their own cookie policies. We do not control these cookies.

We do not embed social media widgets, advertising pixels, or cross-site tracking scripts on this site. The only third-party embeds currently in use are the Google Maps iframe on the contact page and the analytics scripts described in Section 2 above.

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You may update your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the Cookie Settings link in the footer. This will re-open the consent banner, allowing you to accept, restrict, or decline non-essential cookies.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, or to be notified before a cookie is set. The following links provide guidance for common browsers:

  • Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
  • Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
  • Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
  • Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions

Blocking all cookies may affect the functioning of the site. Essential cookies, in particular, are required for the consent banner and basic navigation to function correctly.

6. Changes to This Policy

This Cookie Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in applicable data protection requirements. The date of the most recent revision is shown at the top of this page. Where changes are material, we will update the consent banner so that returning readers can review and re-confirm their preferences.
