Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website may place on your device. Similar technologies, including pixels, tags and local storage, can also be used to remember settings, support website features or understand how visitors use a website.

2. How this website may use cookies

Lina Va Photography’s website provides information about photography services, portfolios and client enquiries. Depending on the features and third-party services enabled on the live website, cookies or similar technologies may be used for essential website operation, remembering preferences, measuring website use, protecting forms or displaying embedded content.

The live cookie inventory has not been independently confirmed for this policy. The website operator should scan the production website, including embedded galleries, maps, video, social media content, analytics and plugins, and publish the actual cookie names, providers, purposes, durations and categories before this page is made live.

3. Cookie categories

• Strictly necessary cookies: These are required for core website functions or a service you request, such as security or remembering a privacy choice. They may be used without consent where the legal exemption applies.
• Preference cookies: These remember choices and settings. Consent should be obtained before using them where required by law.
• Analytics and performance cookies: These help understand visitor numbers and how pages are used. They must not be activated before consent where consent is legally required.
• Third-party and embedded-content technologies: Content such as social media feeds, maps, video or external galleries may involve third-party technologies. Their operation should be checked and consent obtained where required.

4. Your cookie choices

Where consent is required, non-essential cookies and similar technologies should remain inactive until you make a choice. A compliant consent tool should allow you to accept or reject non-essential categories and change your preferences later. Simply continuing to browse or closing a banner should not be treated as consent.

5. Managing cookies through your browser

You can usually block or delete cookies through your browser settings. The controls vary by browser and device. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect the operation of parts of the website. Browser controls may not remove every form of local storage or other tracking technology.

6. Third-party services

If this website uses third-party services, those providers may set or access their own technologies when their content or features are loaded. Their use is subject to the relevant provider policies and the consent requirements that apply. The website operator should identify the providers actually used rather than relying on a generic list.

7. Changes and contact

We may update this Cookie Policy when website features, plugins or third-party services change. For questions about cookies, contact Lina Va Photography at lina@linavaphotography.com.
