Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function, to improve performance, and to provide information to website operators about how visitors use their sites.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are used on dalve.info, why they are used, and how you can manage your preferences. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
This website uses the following categories of cookies:
These cookies are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are set in response to actions you take on the site, such as setting your cookie preferences. They do not store any personally identifiable information.
Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you have made (such as your cookie consent preferences) and provide enhanced features. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our pages.
These cookies allow us to count visits and understand how readers navigate this publication — which articles are read most, how long visitors spend on the site, and where they arrive from. All analytics data is anonymised before it is used. We use this information to improve the editorial content of the publication. These cookies are only placed if you accept analytics cookies via the cookie banner.
Some pages on this website embed content or load resources from third-party services, which may set their own cookies. These include:
- Google Maps (contact.php): the embedded map may set cookies related to Google's services. These are subject to Google's own cookie and privacy policies.
- CDN providers (jsDelivr, Cloudflare, unpkg): JavaScript libraries are served from third-party CDNs. These providers may set performance and security cookies. They do not use these for advertising purposes.
- Google Fonts: typeface files are loaded from Google's servers, which may set cookies. See Google's policies for details.
We do not use any third-party advertising networks, social media tracking pixels, or affiliate tracking cookies on this website.

- Browser settings: most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies directly. Refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions. Note that disabling all cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out prior to withdrawal. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be declined as they are required for the basic functioning of the website.
