Cookie Policy
Short version: this website sets no analytics or advertising cookies at all. The only cookies you may encounter are strictly necessary security cookies set by our hosting provider, Cloudflare.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device to remember information between page views. Related technologies (local storage, pixels) are treated the same way in this policy. UK law (PECR, alongside UK GDPR) requires consent for cookies except those strictly necessary to deliver a service you have requested.
2. Our use of cookies
tolvara.co uses no analytics cookies, no advertising cookies, and no tracking of any kind. We set no first-party cookies from our own code. Because the site is delivered through Cloudflare’s network, Cloudflare may set strictly necessary cookies for security — for example to distinguish humans from automated traffic during a security challenge. These fall within the “strictly necessary” exemption and do not require consent.
3. Cookies that may be set
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| __cf_bm | Cloudflare | Bot management — distinguishes legitimate visitors from automated traffic to protect the site | ~30 minutes |
| cf_clearance | Cloudflare | Records that a security challenge was passed, so you are not repeatedly challenged | up to 1 year |
Which of these appear (if any) depends on Cloudflare’s security assessment of the connection; many visits will set no cookies at all.
4. Future changes and consent
If we ever introduce non-essential cookies (for example, privacy-respecting analytics), we will update this policy first and ask for your consent through a clear banner before any such cookie is set. Consent will be as easy to refuse as to give, and refusing will not degrade the site.
5. Controlling cookies in your browser
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause security challenges to repeat, but the site will otherwise work. Instructions for common browsers:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies / Site settings → Cookies
- Safari (macOS): Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data; Safari (iOS): Settings → Apps → Safari → Advanced
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
