What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device — your computer, phone, or handheld device — when you visit. They allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits, remember your preferences, and understand how you interact with the content.

Cookies are not programmes and cannot read data from your device beyond what the website has stored. They cannot carry viruses or install anything on your system.

This policy explains what cookies itaron.info uses, why we use them, and how you can control which categories of cookie are active during your visit. The consent banner at the bottom of every page allows you to accept all, accept selected, or accept only essential cookies. You can revisit this choice at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the footer.

These cookies are only set if you consent to preference cookies when the banner is displayed.
