Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 18 August 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies delaruchealolivier.com uses, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. This policy applies to all visitors of this website regardless of location.
What a Cookie Is
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your computer, phone, or other device when you visit it. Cookies allow a website to recognize your device on return visits and to remember certain information about your session or preferences. They are widely used to make websites function correctly and to provide website operators with basic usage information.
Cookies are not programs and cannot execute code. They cannot carry viruses or install malware. However, cookies can be used to track browsing behavior across websites, which is why transparency about their use matters.
There are different types of cookies based on their lifespan and origin. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies are set by a different domain, typically an analytics or advertising service.
Cookie Categories We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to operate. Without them, core functions like page navigation and the contact form would not work properly. Essential cookies do not require your consent under applicable law because they are strictly necessary for the service you have requested.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| dlrao_consent | Stores your cookie consent preferences | 365 days | First-party |
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable the website to remember choices you have made, such as your language preference or which tab was last selected in a content section. These improve your experience but are not strictly necessary. We request your consent before placing functional cookies.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| dlrao_prefs | Remembers UI preferences such as active tab state | Session | First-party |
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies allow us to count visits and understand how visitors navigate the website. This information is used in aggregate form to improve the educational content and structure of the site. We use Google Analytics for this purpose where you have given consent. Google Analytics sets cookies on your device through our site.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Distinguishes unique users for Google Analytics | 2 years | Third-party (Google) |
| _ga_* | Stores and counts pageview sessions | 2 years | Third-party (Google) |
| _gid | Distinguishes users within a 24-hour period | 24 hours | Third-party (Google) |
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies remember settings that affect how content is displayed. Currently, we use one preference cookie to remember whether the cookie banner has been dismissed, which differs from the consent record itself.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| dlrao_banner_seen | Records that the cookie banner has been seen | 30 days | First-party |
How We Obtain Consent
When you first visit this website, a cookie consent panel appears at the bottom of the viewport. The left side of the panel explains what we use cookies for. The right side presents toggle controls for each non-essential cookie category, along with an "Accept All" button and a "Save Preferences" button for granular control.
Your choices are saved in the "dlrao_consent" cookie. This cookie itself is essential to the consent mechanism and is placed without requiring consent. All other non-essential cookies are only placed after you have interacted with the consent panel and chosen to allow them.
You may change your preferences at any time by clearing your browser cookies, which will cause the consent panel to reappear on your next visit. You may also contact us directly at info@delaruchealolivier.com to request information about cookies placed during your visit.
Browser-Level Cookie Controls
All modern browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies independently of any site-level consent tool. The controls are typically found in your browser's privacy or settings menu. Note that blocking all cookies will prevent this website from functioning correctly, as essential cookies will also be blocked.
For guidance on managing cookies in specific browsers, refer to the help documentation provided by your browser:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions
Deleting cookies from your browser will remove your saved consent preferences. The consent panel will reappear on your next visit and you will need to set your preferences again.
Third-Party Cookie Policies
Where third-party cookies are placed (currently limited to Google Analytics where you have consented), those cookies are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of the respective third parties. We do not control third-party cookie behavior beyond enabling or disabling their placement based on your consent.
Google Analytics data is processed by Google LLC in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy. Google provides opt-out tools including the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. For information about how Google uses data from sites that use Google Analytics, visit policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes or as legal requirements evolve. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page reflects the date of the most recent revision. Changes to non-essential cookie usage that require new consent will trigger a reappearance of the consent panel for visitors who have previously set preferences.
