What we store ourselves
We set no advertising or tracking cookies. The site keeps a few small items in your browser’s local storage, only on your device, to work as you expect. They need no consent under Law no. 506/2004.

| rr-theme | Remembers whether you chose the light or the dark theme | Until you clear it |
| rr-geo-cache | Stores map coordinates for places you looked up in the route planner, so they load faster next time | Until you clear it |
| wordpress_*, wp-settings-* | Login and editor settings, for the site’s editors only | Session to 14 days |
Videos and maps — only if you allow them
Some content comes from other services. Nothing is loaded from them until you choose “Allow all”, tick “Videos and maps”, or press a “Load map” or “Play video” button. Once loaded, these providers receive your IP address and may set their own cookies, under their own privacy policies.
| Service | Used for | Provider |
|---|---|---|
| YouTube (youtube-nocookie.com) | The film on the home page and videos in articles | Google Ireland Ltd. |
| Google Maps | The route planner, itinerary maps, the wine and gastronomy maps | Google Ireland Ltd. |
| OpenStreetMap | Map tiles for the transhumance map | OpenStreetMap Foundation |
| GitHub Pages | The photo map on the home page | GitHub, Inc. |
Statistics — only if you allow them
If you tick “Statistics”, we load Google Analytics 4 to count visits and see which pages are useful. It sets the cookies _ga and _ga_* (up to 2 years). Google acts as our processor. If you do not allow statistics, Google Analytics is never loaded.
Changing your choices
Use “Privacy settings” at the bottom of every page, or the button below. You can also delete local storage and cookies from your browser settings; the site will ask again.
Changes to this policy
If we add or remove a service, we update this page and the effective date above.
