Cookie Policy
Last updated: 14 May 2025 | Effective: 14 May 2025
1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Curventa ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website at curventa.pro. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which sets out how we handle personal data more broadly.
When you first visit our website, a notice will appear asking for your consent to non-essential cookies. You may accept all cookies or decline analytics cookies at that point. You can also update your preferences at any time by clearing your browser storage and revisiting the site.
2. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They allow the website to remember information about your visit — such as whether you have acknowledged our cookie notice — and can help the site work more reliably across sessions.
Cookies may be session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They may be set by us directly (first-party cookies) or by third-party services operating on our pages.
3. Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function. They do not collect personal data for marketing purposes and cannot be disabled without affecting how the site operates. No consent is required to set these cookies.

|---|---|---|---|
| curventa_cookie_consent | Records whether you have responded to our cookie notice, so the banner is not shown on every page visit. | 12 months | First-party, persistent (localStorage) |
| PHPSESSID | Standard PHP session identifier used to maintain session state across page requests during a single visit. | Session | First-party, session |
Analytics Cookies
With your consent, we use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use our website — which pages are visited most often, how long visitors spend on each page, and what paths they take through the site. This information is collected in aggregated, non-personally-identifiable form and helps us improve the clarity and structure of our reading materials and programme descriptions.
| Name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics — distinguishes unique visitors to support aggregated usage reports. | 2 years | Third-party, persistent |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics — maintains session state for the analytics measurement in use. | 2 years | Third-party, persistent |
| _gid | Google Analytics — distinguishes users across a 24-hour period for daily reporting. | 24 hours | Third-party, persistent |
Analytics cookies are only placed after you have given consent via our cookie notice. If you decline analytics cookies, none of the above cookies will be set and your visit will not be tracked beyond the basic server logs described in our Privacy Policy.
4. Cookies We Do Not Use
We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels for retargeting, social media cookies, or any cookie technology designed to build a profile of your interests for commercial purposes. Our website does not serve advertisements and does not share cookie data with advertising networks.
5. Third-Party Services
Our homepage includes an embedded Google Maps frame to display our reading room address. When this frame loads, Google may set its own cookies subject to Google's Privacy Policy. We have no control over the cookies set by Google through this embed. If you prefer not to interact with the map frame, you may scroll past it without activating it.
6. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Via our cookie notice
When you first visit curventa.pro, a notice will appear at the foot of the page offering you the choice to accept or decline analytics cookies. Your preference is stored in your browser's local storage. To reset your preference, clear your browser's local storage for this domain and revisit the site.
Via your browser settings
Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies through their settings. The steps vary by browser; refer to your browser's help documentation for guidance. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect the basic operation of the site.
