Cookie Policy
Which cookies this website uses, and which it does not. The short version: two technical cookies — one remembers your language, one remembers your cookie choice — and nothing that tracks you.
Last updated: November 5, 2026Draft awaiting legal review. Anything in [square brackets] is still to be confirmed by Blue Venado before this page is final.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser, so that it can remember something between one page and the next — a language, a login, or in some cases your behaviour across sites.
2. The cookies we use
NEXT_LOCALE — set by this website (first party), only when you choose a language different from your browser's. It remembers that choice so that the next page opens in the same language. It is a session cookie: your browser deletes it when you close it. It is strictly necessary to give you the language you asked for, so it does not need your consent.
bv_consent — set by this website (first party) when you answer the cookie banner. It remembers your choice, including a refusal, so that we do not ask again on every page. It lasts 180 days, after which we ask again. It is strictly necessary to respect your choice, so it does not need your consent.
3. What we do not use
No analytics cookies, no advertising or retargeting cookies, no social media pixels and no profiling of any kind are active today. The banner on your first visit lets you decide in advance whether to allow measurement and marketing cookies if we add them; until you accept, none are set.
4. Third-party services
The site's typefaces are loaded from Google Fonts. Google does not set cookies for this, but your browser does send your IP address to Google's servers to download the fonts [to confirm: we plan to host the fonts ourselves, which removes this request].
On a venue page, the map is loaded from OpenFreeMap once you scroll to it. OpenFreeMap sets no cookies, but your browser does send your IP address to its servers (tiles.openfreemap.org, delivered through Cloudflare) to download the map.
Links to WhatsApp, Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok, Facebook and Google Maps take you to those services, which may use their own cookies once you are there. Nothing from them is loaded until you click.
5. How to control cookies
You can see, block or delete cookies in your browser's settings. If you block NEXT_LOCALE the site still works; it will simply follow your browser's language.
You can change your choice at any time from “Cookie preferences” at the bottom of every page.
6. Changes
If we ever add analytics or advertising tools — for example to measure a campaign — they will run only for visitors who have accepted that category in the banner, and we will list them on this page first.
