Cookie policy
Last updated: 5 October 2026
Cookies and similar technologies can store information on your device. This website uses a default-off approach for optional embedded services. Declining does not prevent browsing listings, images or visitor guides.
Storage and services
| Service | Purpose | Choice and duration |
|---|---|---|
| bvg-privacy-v1 (local storage) | Remembers consent version, choices for maps and weather, and choice time on this browser. | Essential preference storage; expires after 180 days. Clear browser storage to remove it earlier. |
| Google Maps | Displays an interactive map and contacts Google servers. | Optional. Off until enabled. Google controls its own cookies and retention. |
| WeatherWidget.io / weather providers | Displays weather forecasts and contacts external servers. | Optional. Off until enabled. Providers control their own cookies and retention. |
The site hosts its fonts and photos locally. No analytics or advertising tracking code is installed. Exact third-party cookies can vary with provider updates, browser settings and region; this policy does not claim a verified exhaustive inventory of cookies those providers may create.
Accept, decline, or change your mind
Use the equally available Accept optional and Decline optional buttons, or choose maps and weather separately. Optional boxes start unchecked. Silence, scrolling and continuing to browse are not consent. Use the footer Cookie settings button at any time. Withdrawing consent reloads the page to stop embedded services. We cannot delete cookies already set on an external provider’s domain; you can clear those through your browser settings.
If browser storage is blocked, choices work for the current page but may need to be made again on the next page. Ordinary links do not activate embedded services, but visiting an external website lets that website apply its own policies.
