What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored by your browser when you visit a website. They can store preferences or help the site understand how it's being used.

What cookies does KyotoVibe use?

We use two categories:

Necessary cookies

These are always active and cannot be disabled. They include:

ralen-cookie-consent — stores your cookie preference so we don't ask every time. Expires after 12 months.

No personal data is stored in this cookie beyond your consent choice.

Analytics cookies (opt-in only)

Only set if you explicitly accept analytics cookies via our cookie banner. These help us understand which articles are read, how people navigate the site, and where we can improve. No advertising or cross-site tracking cookies are used.

Third-party cookies

We embed a Google Maps iframe on our contact page. Google may set cookies when the map is loaded. This is governed by Google's privacy policy. The map iframe only loads when you visit the contact page.

How to manage your preferences

You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing the ralen-cookie-consent entry from your browser's local storage and reloading the page — the consent banner will reappear. You can also adjust cookie settings in your browser directly.
