Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 2026. Applies to all pages on talmora.info.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on a device by a website during a visit. They allow a site to recognise a returning visitor's device and remember certain information — such as language preferences or consent status — across sessions.
Cookies may be set either by the website the visitor is viewing (first-party cookies) or by third-party services embedded in that site (third-party cookies). Cookies can be session-based — deleted when the browser is closed — or persistent, remaining on the device until they expire or are manually removed.
2. How Talmora Uses Cookies
Talmora uses cookies for three purposes: to ensure the site functions correctly (strictly necessary), to understand how visitors navigate the site in aggregate (analytical), and to remember user preferences across sessions (functional). No cookies are used for advertising or cross-site tracking.
The table below describes each category in detail.
3. Cookie Categories
Strictly Necessary
Always ActiveThese cookies are required for talmora.info to function. Without them, core features such as page navigation, form submission, and security functions would not operate correctly. They do not collect information for marketing purposes and cannot be disabled.
| Name | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|
| talmora_consent | Stores the visitor's cookie consent choice to prevent the banner from reappearing on every page load. | 13 months |
| PHPSESSID | Session identifier used to maintain server-side session state during a single browsing visit. | Session |
Functional
OptionalFunctional cookies remember preferences set by a visitor — such as language or region — so that returning visitors do not need to re-enter them. These cookies do not track browsing across other websites.
| Name | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|
| talmora_prefs | Stores display preference choices (e.g., menu open/closed state on return visit). | 6 months |
Analytical
OptionalAnalytical cookies help Talmora understand how visitors use the site — which pages are visited most, how long visits last, and where visitors arrive from. All data is collected in aggregate and anonymised form. Individual visitor data is not retained or cross-referenced with personal identifiers.
| Name | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics — distinguishes unique users. Data processed in aggregate, anonymised form. | 2 years |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics — session-level data used to maintain state during a measurement session. | 2 years |
4. Managing and Withdrawing Consent
When visiting talmora.info for the first time, a cookie consent banner is presented at the bottom of the screen. Visitors may choose to accept all cookies, accept a partial selection, or accept functional cookies only. The choice is stored in the talmora_consent cookie.
Consent may be reviewed or withdrawn at any time by selecting "Cookie Settings" in the footer of any page on this site. The banner will re-open and allow a fresh selection. Note that withdrawing consent for analytical cookies does not affect data already collected prior to withdrawal.
Cookies may also be managed or deleted directly through browser settings. Most browsers provide options to view, block, or delete cookies from specific sites. Consult your browser's help documentation for instructions specific to your browser version. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will impair the function of talmora.info.
5. Third-Party Cookies
Where third-party services are used on talmora.info — such as Google Analytics for aggregate site measurement — those services may set their own cookies on the visitor's device. Talmora does not control the content of third-party cookies. The relevant privacy and cookie policies for third-party services used on this site:
- Google Analytics: policies.google.com/privacy
- Google Maps (contact page embed): policies.google.com/privacy
6. Updates to This Policy
Talmora may revise this cookie policy as the site's functionality or applicable regulation changes. The date of the most recent revision appears at the top of this page. Continued use of talmora.info after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. Visitors who previously gave consent will be presented with an updated banner where the change materially affects the scope of consent.
