This Cookie Policy explains how Istora Review uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit this website.

Section 01

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to improve the visitor experience, and to provide information to website operators about how their sites are being used.

Cookies are set either by the website you are visiting directly — known as first-party cookies — or by third-party services that the website uses. The information stored in cookies can be read by the website on subsequent visits, allowing it to recognise your device and remember preferences or usage patterns.

Most browsers accept cookies automatically. You can choose to block or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings, though doing so may affect the functionality of this and other websites.

Section 02

How We Use Cookies

Istora Review uses cookies for the following general purposes:

  • To ensure the website functions correctly for all visitors
  • To remember your cookie consent preferences so you are not asked again on every visit
  • To collect anonymous statistical data about how visitors use the site, to help us improve the editorial experience (only with your consent)
  • To enable third-party services embedded on the site, such as the Google Maps embed on the contact page

We do not use cookies to serve targeted advertising, to track your browsing across other websites, or to build commercial profiles of individual visitors.

Section 04

Third-Party Cookies

  • Google Fonts: loading fonts from Google's servers may result in a request being logged by Google. Google's handling of this data is governed by their Privacy Policy.

We have no control over these third-party cookies. If you are concerned about their use, please consult the relevant third-party privacy documentation or use your browser settings to block third-party cookies.
