Cookie Notice | Cacele

In plain language.

We use a small number of cookies and local-storage entries to make the site work. We do not run third-party advertising or social-media tracking pixels. If your browser blocks cookies, the site still works; you just lose a few small niceties, like the mobile menu remembering its state during a session. This notice supplements our Privacy Policy.

No fingerprinting libraries.

If we ever add any of the above, we’ll update this notice and add a banner with a clear opt-in.

Third-party services that may set cookies

Google Fonts serves the font files used on the Site. Google does not set persistent cookies for Fonts requests, but it does see your IP address when fonts load.
Pexels (article images): Pexels’ CDN sees your IP when their images load on our pages. They may set their own cookies; check their privacy policy for details.

How to control cookies

Every modern browser lets you block, allow, or delete cookies in its privacy settings. You can also use private/incognito mode to avoid persistent cookies entirely. Search “cookie settings” plus your browser name for instructions.

Changes

If we add or remove cookies materially, we’ll update this notice with a new “Last updated” date.
