Cookie policy
Last updated: 13 October 2026
On Lost in Norvana I use cookies and similar technologies to make the website work properly, to understand how visitors use the website and, if you give your consent, to show relevant content and advertisements.
But you decide which cookies you accept. You can view or change your preferences at any time via the cookie settings.
In this cookie policy I explain which types of cookies Lost in Norvana uses, why they are placed and how you stay in control of your privacy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that may be stored on your computer, tablet or smartphone when you visit a website.
They help, for example, to make a website work properly, to remember your preferences or to understand how visitors use the website.
Besides cookies, similar technologies may also be used, such as pixels and local storage in your browser. Where this policy refers to cookies, it also means these similar technologies.
2. What types of cookies does Lost in Norvana use?
Lost in Norvana may use different types of cookies. Not every cookie has the same purpose, and some cookies require your consent.
Necessary cookies
These cookies make sure the website works properly and securely. For example, they support security, the operation of certain website features and remembering your cookie preferences.
Because these cookies are necessary for the website to work, no separate consent is required for them.
Functional cookies
Functional cookies make the website more pleasant to use. For example, they can remember settings or enable certain features.
Some functional cookies may be placed without consent. Where a functional cookie is not covered by a legal exemption, your consent is asked for in advance.
Analytical cookies
I like to know which articles are read a lot, how visitors find their way to Lost in Norvana and which parts of the website could be better.
Analytical cookies can help with that. They can be used, for example, to measure which pages are visited, how visitors navigate through the website and how often certain pages are viewed.
For analytical cookies that have little or no impact on your privacy, an exemption from the consent requirement may apply under certain conditions.
For other analytical cookies, I ask for your consent in advance.
Marketing cookies
Marketing cookies can be used to make advertisements more relevant and to measure how well campaigns perform.
These cookies can help, for example, to understand which advertisements bring visitors to Lost in Norvana, or to tailor advertisements to interests.
Marketing cookies are only placed if you have given your consent in advance.
3. Third-party cookies
Lost in Norvana may use services provided by third parties.
Think of analytics tools, embedded videos, social media, advertising platforms and external booking or reservation services.
When you use a feature provided by a third party, that party may place cookies or process other data.
For non-essential cookies that require consent, that consent is asked for in advance.
Third parties may have their own privacy and cookie policies. I recommend reading these if you want to know more about how they handle your data.
4. Affiliate links
Some articles on Lost in Norvana contain affiliate links to, for example, accommodation, travel products, activities or other services.
If you buy or book something via such a link, I may receive a small commission. This costs you nothing extra.
Affiliate partners may use technologies to record that a visitor reached them via Lost in Norvana.
Where cookies that require consent are placed on Lost in Norvana for this purpose, they are only used after you have given your consent.
As soon as you click through to an external website, that website’s privacy and cookie policy applies.
