Cookie Policy

Definitions and key terms

To help explain this Cookie Policy as clearly as possible, the terms below carry the following meanings every time they appear:

Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Soccotra uses cookies and similar browser storage on the Website, what is stored on your device, and how you can control it. Soccotra is a small studio based in Sofia, Bulgaria.

The Website is deliberately simple. We do not run analytics, we do not advertise, and we do not track visitors across other websites.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device. Local storage is a related browser feature that lets a website save a small amount of data in your browser without sending it back to the server with every request. Both can be inspected and deleted from your browser settings.

What we store

We store two entries in your browser’s local storage, and each one is written only when you take the action it records.

Neither entry identifies you, and neither is sent to us. Both stay in your browser until you clear them, or clear the storage for this site.

What we do not use

We do not use analytics or measurement cookies. There is no Google Analytics, no tag manager and no other analytics tool on the Website.

We do not use advertising, remarketing or marketing cookies, and we do not build profiles of visitors.

We do not embed social media sharing buttons, like buttons, maps or other third party widgets that would set cookies from another site.

The Website has no user accounts, no login and no online payments, so no cookies are set for any of those purposes.

Third party services

Services that help deliver the Website may set what they need in your browser for their own limited purpose.

What you send through our forms is handled away from your browser, so it places nothing on your device. It goes to two places.

Our Privacy Policy describes why we hold that information and how long we keep it.

How you can manage cookies and local storage

Most browsers let you view, block and delete cookies and local storage through their settings, including an option to clear everything a single site has stored. Browser manufacturers provide help pages explaining how this works in their own products, and those pages are the most reliable guide, because the controls differ between browsers and change between versions.

If you clear the “cookie_consent” entry, the banner will appear again on your next visit. If you clear the “language” entry, the Website will go back to choosing a language from your browser’s own language settings, falling back to English.

Blocking storage for the Website will not stop you from reading it. It may affect the contact form, because the Turnstile check has to run before a message can be sent.

Your choices

The banner records nothing beyond your answer, and the language switcher records nothing beyond the language you picked. Because no analytics, advertising or tracking technology runs on the Website, declining switches nothing off and accepting switches nothing on. You can change your answer at any time by clearing the “cookie_consent” entry, or all storage for this site, in your browser.

We do not treat continued use of the Website as agreement to anything beyond what is described in this policy.

Changes To Our Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy if the Website changes or if the law requires it. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last updated. If we start using cookies or similar technologies for a new purpose, we will update this policy first.
