Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website operators about how their site is used. Cookies are stored in your browser and remain until they expire or are deleted.
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies Taleva Field Notes uses on this website, why each type is used, and how you can control them. For a broader explanation of how we handle personal data, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
Taleva Field Notes uses cookies for three purposes: to ensure the website functions correctly (strictly necessary), to understand how readers navigate and engage with the editorial content (analytics), and to remember preferences you have set during your visit (functional). We do not use advertising or targeting cookies, and we do not share cookie data with advertising networks.
These cookies are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are set in response to actions you take, such as setting your cookie preferences. They do not store any personally identifiable information. These cookies do not require your consent under applicable UK law.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| tfn_cookie_consent | Stores the visitor's cookie consent choice (accept all, partial, functional only) to avoid showing the consent banner on every page load. | 12 months |
| PHPSESSID | Standard PHP session identifier. Maintains session state during a single visit. Deleted when the browser is closed. | Session |
These cookies help us understand how readers arrive at the site, which articles are most read, and how long visitors engage with the content. The data collected is aggregated and does not identify individual visitors. Analytics cookies are only set if you choose “Accept All” or “Accept Partial” in the cookie banner.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics. Distinguishes unique visitors using a randomly generated number. Used to calculate visit, session, and campaign data for site analytics reporting. | 24 months |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics 4 session state. Persists session information and enables measurement of how users interact with the publication across multiple visits. | 24 months |
| _gid | Google Analytics. Distinguishes unique visitors. Stores and updates a unique value for each page visited. | 24 hours |
Functional cookies enable enhanced features such as remembering display preferences or reading progress. They do not track you across other websites. These cookies are set only if you choose “Accept All” or “Functional Only” in the cookie banner.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| tfn_reading_pref | Stores reading preference settings (e.g. font size selection if offered in future versions of the site). Currently set but not actively read. | 6 months |
Some third-party services used by this website may set their own cookies. These include Google Fonts (loaded via fonts.googleapis.com) and CDN providers (jsDelivr, unpkg, Cloudflare). These are technical delivery services and generally do not set persistent tracking cookies. Where they do, their own privacy and cookie policies apply.
We do not embed social media widgets, advertising scripts, or marketing pixels on this website. No cookie data is shared with advertising networks.
When you first visit Taleva Field Notes, a cookie consent banner is displayed at the bottom of the page. You have three options:
Your selection is stored in the tfn_cookie_consent cookie for 12 months so that the banner does not reappear on every visit. You can change your selection at any time by clicking “Cookie Settings” in the website footer.
In addition to the consent controls on this website, you can manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. Instructions for the most common browsers:
Please note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of this website, including the ability to remember your cookie consent preferences.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as the website evolves or as regulatory requirements change. The revision date at the top of this page will be updated accordingly. If we introduce new categories of cookies that require consent, we will reset the consent banner so that visitors can make a fresh choice.
