1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to provide functionality, and to provide information to the owners of the site.
Cookies do not typically contain personally identifying information, but personal data that we store about you may be linked to information stored in and obtained from cookies. Cookies are set by the website you are visiting (first-party cookies) or by other organisations (third-party cookies).
Each cookie typically has a name, a value, an expiry date, and a domain. When you return to a website, the browser checks whether any cookies from that site are still active and sends the relevant information back to the website.
2. How We Use Cookies
Beldora Lab uses cookies on the beldora.info website to:
-
Ensure the website operates correctly and securely (essential cookies).
-
Remember your cookie consent preference so you are not asked again on every page visit.
-
Understand how visitors use the website so we can improve the catalogue experience (analytics cookies, where consent is given).
-
Enable certain website functionality delivered through third-party services integrated into the website.
We do not use cookies for targeted advertising, and we do not sell cookie data to third parties.

These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation, such as remembering your consent preferences or language settings.

Analytics & Performance Cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site, and will not be able to monitor its performance.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on the Beldora Lab website are set by third-party services integrated into our pages. These include services used to deliver website functionality such as font rendering (Google Fonts), icon libraries (Font Awesome via jsDelivr CDN), animation libraries, and image presentation tools.
Third-party cookies are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of the respective third parties, not by this policy. We have no control over the content of third-party cookies and are not responsible for the practices of the companies that operate those services.
Where we have integrated third-party services, we have sought to use those that align with reasonable data minimisation practices. We encourage you to read the cookie and privacy policies of any third-party service you interact with through our website.
5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
When you first visit the Beldora Lab website, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner. You can choose to accept all cookies, accept selected categories, or accept essential cookies only. Your preference will be remembered for future visits.
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in the footer of any page on this website.
You may also manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies, delete cookies that have already been set, or to be notified when cookies are sent. The method for doing this varies from browser to browser, and from version to version. Please consult your browser’s help documentation for instructions.
Please note that blocking all cookies will have a negative impact on the usability of some websites, including aspects of the Beldora Lab website. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be blocked through our consent tool, as they are required for the site to function correctly.
