This Cookie Policy explains how necrocaser.life uses cookies and similar technologies. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy. We comply with Portuguese Law No. 41/2004 of 18 August (Privacy and Electronic Communications), the ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC), and CNPD guidance on cookie consent.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and pixel tags. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences over time.
2. Our approach
Necrocaser.life is designed with minimal data collection. We do not use:
- Third-party analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Matomo, etc.)
- Advertising or retargeting cookies
- Social media tracking pixels
- Third-party content delivery networks (CDNs) that set cookies
- Cross-site tracking of any kind
All styles, scripts, and content are self-hosted within the website files. No external resources are loaded that could set cookies on your device.
3. Cookies and storage we use
| Name / Key | Type | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| necrocaser_life_consent | localStorage | Stores your cookie consent decision ("accepted") so the consent banner is not shown again | Until you clear browser storage or withdraw consent | Strictly necessary / Consent |
This is the only data stored on your device by our website. It is set only after you click "Accept" on the cookie consent banner displayed at the bottom centre of each page.
4. Cookie categories
Strictly necessary
The consent storage key (necrocaser_life_consent) is classified as strictly necessary because it records your consent preference, which is required under Portuguese and EU law before any non-essential cookies could be placed. Since we use no non-essential cookies, this is the only storage mechanism on the site.
Functional, analytics, and marketing
We do not use functional, analytics, or marketing cookies. If this changes in the future, we will update this policy, request your consent before placing any new cookies, and provide granular opt-in controls.
5. Legal basis
Storage of your consent preference is based on:
- Article 6(1)(a) GDPR — your consent, given by clicking "Accept" on the cookie banner
- Article 5(3) ePrivacy Directive — implemented in Portugal via Lei n.º 41/2004, requiring informed consent before storing information on a user's device (with an exception for strictly necessary storage)
6. Cookie consent banner
When you first visit necrocaser.life, a consent banner appears as a pill-shaped notice fixed at the bottom centre of the screen. It informs you that we use essential storage to remember your preferences and provides a link to this Cookie Policy. Clicking "Accept" stores the value "accepted" in localStorage under the key necrocaser_life_consent and dismisses the banner permanently (until you clear storage).
7. Managing your preferences
Current consent status: Checking…
To withdraw consent and reset the banner, click the button below or clear localStorage for necrocaser.life in your browser settings.
Browser controls
You can also manage cookies and local storage through your browser settings:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Manage and delete cookies
Blocking or deleting the necrocaser_life_consent key will cause the consent banner to reappear on your next visit. This does not affect your ability to browse the website.
8. Third-party cookies
We do not embed third-party content (videos, maps, social widgets, fonts from external servers) that could set cookies. Our contact form uses a mailto: action that opens your email client — no data is transmitted through our servers or third-party form processors.
9. Changes to this policy
If we introduce new cookies or storage mechanisms, we will update this page, revise the "Last updated" date, and request fresh consent via the banner before activating any non-essential storage. Material changes will not be applied retroactively without your consent.
