01 / OVERVIEW

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device — computer, handheld device, or mobile phone — by websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites function correctly, to remember your preferences, and to provide basic usage data to the site operator.

This Cookie Policy explains how Dalno Studio uses cookies on dalno.info. It describes the types of cookies we use, their purpose, their duration, and your options for managing them.

For information on how we handle personal data more broadly, please read our Privacy Policy.

02 / CATEGORIES

Cookie Categories We Use

We organise cookies into three categories based on their purpose. You can control which non-essential categories are active using the Cookie Settings option in the footer.

Essential Cookies

ALWAYS ACTIVE — CANNOT BE DISABLED

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. Without them, core features such as navigation, form submission, and security would not work correctly. They do not collect personal data and do not require your consent under UK PECR.

Cookie Name	Purpose	Duration
ds_cookie_prefs	Stores your cookie consent preferences	12 months
PHPSESSID	Maintains session state for form submissions	Session
csrf_token	Prevents cross-site request forgery on forms	Session

Analytics Cookies

REQUIRES CONSENT

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website by collecting anonymised information about pages visited, time spent, and entry points. This information is used only to improve the structure and content of the catalogue. No personal data is attached to these records.

Cookie Name	Purpose	Duration
_ga	Distinguishes anonymous site visitors for analytics	24 months
_ga_*	Maintains analytics session state	24 months
_gid	Stores page view data within a 24-hour window	24 hours

Functional Cookies

REQUIRES CONSENT

Functional cookies enable enhanced features and personalisation — for example, remembering your language or display preferences between visits. If these cookies are not accepted, some features may not operate as expected, but core catalogue browsing will remain fully available.

Cookie Name	Purpose	Duration
ds_display_prefs	Remembers layout and display preferences	6 months
ds_last_visited	Records the last section visited for navigation continuity	30 days

03 / THIRD-PARTY COOKIES
