What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help sites remember preferences, maintain security, and understand how visitors use pages. Picchalham uses cookies sparingly and never for cross-site advertising.
This policy explains each cookie we set, its purpose, duration, and how to control it. We review this policy annually and update it when our practices change.
Essential Cookies
picchalham_mediterranean_ack stores your cookie consent choice so the top banner does not reappear on every visit. It is set only after you click Accept and persists until you clear browser storage. No personal data is encoded in this cookie.
Session cookies for form security may be set temporarily when you submit contact enquiries. These expire when you close your browser and contain no identifiable information.
Analytics
We may use privacy-focused analytics that do not set third-party tracking cookies. If implemented, analytics collect anonymised page views and referral sources to help us improve content. IP addresses are truncated before storage.
You may opt out of analytics by enabling Do Not Track in your browser or using our cookie preferences panel when available.
Third-Party Cookies
Picchalham does not embed social media trackers, advertising pixels, or third-party widgets that set cookies. External links to partner sites operate under their own cookie policies once you leave picchalham.live.
Embedded maps on our contact page, if present, may set cookies from the map provider. We use static map images where possible to avoid this.
Managing Cookies
You can delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Blocking all cookies may prevent the consent banner from remembering your choice. Instructions for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge are available on each browser's support site.
For questions about our cookie practices contact [email protected]. See our Privacy Policy for broader data protection information.
Updates
We last updated this Cookie Policy in July 2026. Material changes will be announced via a notice on our homepage. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
