This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies Bravenis Notebook uses on bravenis.info, and how you can manage or withdraw your consent at any time. Reading this policy alongside our Privacy Policy gives you a complete picture of how we handle data.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They are widely used across the web to make sites function correctly, to remember your preferences, and to give site owners insight into how their content is used.
Cookies are not programs — they cannot execute code, carry viruses, or access other files on your device. A cookie contains only the information that the website places in it, and can only be read by the website that set it or, in some cases, by specific third-party services operating under the website's instructions.

Cookies Set by Third Parties
Certain features on Bravenis Notebook rely on third-party services that may set their own cookies. We have no direct control over these cookies; they are governed by the respective services' privacy and cookie policies.
- — Google Maps (contact.php): Google may set cookies when the map is loaded or interacted with. These are subject to Google's Cookie Policy.
- — Google Fonts: Fonts served from fonts.googleapis.com may result in a browser request that Google logs. No cookie is typically set but a connection is made to Google servers.
- — CDN providers (jsDelivr, Cloudflare, unpkg.com): JavaScript libraries are loaded from these CDN providers. Standard CDN request logging may apply; no tracking cookies are set by these services on this site.
Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for managing cookies on Bravenis Notebook:
- — Cookie Settings panel: Click the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of any page to reopen the consent panel and update your preferences at any time.
- — Browser settings: Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies via their settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect site functionality. Refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions.
- — Opt-out tools: For analytics cookies specifically, you may opt out of Google Analytics data collection at any time via Google's opt-out tools.
