Cookie policy

This website is built to work without tracking you. That keeps this page short.

Cookies this site sets

In normal browsing, pilcrow.es sets a single functional cookie, described below. There is no analytics, no advertising and no social media tracking.

  • Language (pll_language): records the language of the pages you are reading, English or Spanish, so the site keeps showing you that language. It contains a two-letter language code and nothing else, and expires after one year.
  • Logged-in editors only: WordPress sets session and preference cookies for people who sign in to manage content. These are never set for ordinary visitors.

Why there is no cookie banner

Under the ePrivacy Directive and Spanish law, consent is required for cookies that are not strictly necessary for a service the visitor has requested. The only cookie an ordinary visitor receives records the language of the pages they are reading. It is needed to serve the site in that language, which falls within that exemption. Because we set no analytics or advertising cookies, there is nothing to ask consent for, so we do not interrupt you to ask.

Embedded content

Some pages may link to video or documents hosted by EU project platforms or partner organisations. We link to them rather than embedding players, so those services only receive data if you choose to follow the link. If an embed is ever added, this page will be updated first and the embed will require your action to load.

Controlling cookies

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking the language cookie will not stop the site working; it will simply not remember your language choice between pages.
