1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function properly, to improve efficiency, and to provide information to the website operator.

Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, local storage, and session storage. Where we refer to "cookies" in this Policy, we mean cookies and these similar technologies collectively.

2. Who We Are

The cookie controller for this Website is Blixarondhel, located at 1201 3rd Ave, Seattle, WA 98101, United States. You can contact us about cookies at talk@blixarondhel.world.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to operate. Without them, services you have asked for cannot be provided. They are not used to remember preferences beyond what is necessary for the basic functioning of the site.

Legal basis: Legitimate interests (no consent required under ePrivacy Directive, as these are strictly necessary).

Examples: Cookie consent preference storage (via localStorage), form session management.

Retention: Session or up to 12 months.

3.2 Analytics Cookies

These cookies allow us to count site visits and analyze how visitors move around the Website. This helps us understand which pages are most popular and how we can improve the overall experience. All data collected is aggregated and anonymized where possible.

Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). These cookies are only set if you accept them via our cookie banner or cookie settings.

Examples: Usage tracking data stored in session storage.

Retention: Up to 13 months.

3.3 Marketing & Advertising Cookies

These cookies may be used to build a profile of your interests and display relevant advertising. They track your browsing across websites to measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.

Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). These cookies are only set if you explicitly accept them.

Retention: Up to 13 months or as specified by the third party placing the cookie.

4. How We Use localStorage

We use your browser's localStorage to save your cookie preferences on your device. The stored value is a JSON object (e.g., {"status":"accepted","analytics":true,"marketing":false}) which allows us to remember your choice across sessions. This data is not transmitted to any server and is not a cookie in the traditional sense; however, it serves a similar function.

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

When you first visit our Website, a cookie consent banner will appear. You can:

  • Accept All: Accept all cookie categories including analytics and marketing
  • Reject: Decline all optional cookies (strictly necessary cookies will still apply)
  • Cookie Settings: Choose individual cookie categories to enable or disable

You can change your preferences at any time by clearing your browser's localStorage for this site, which will cause the cookie banner to reappear on your next visit.

6. Browser-Level Controls

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these in the "Privacy" or "Security" section of your browser. You may:

  • Delete all cookies currently stored on your device
  • Block cookies from specific websites
  • Block all third-party cookies
  • Allow all or some cookies

Please note that restricting or deleting cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites you visit. Browser-specific instructions are available from your browser vendor's support documentation.

7. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies may be placed by third parties when you visit our Website. These third parties include content delivery networks (CDNs) for fonts and icon libraries. We do not control the use of cookies by third parties. Please refer to each third party's privacy and cookie policy for further information.

8. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, or our practices. The "Last updated" date at the top will indicate when the latest changes were made. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically.
