Privacy
Cookies
Vena Ice Cream uses no cookies for analytics, advertising or tracking. The little that is stored is strictly necessary for the website to work, so it needs no consent.

What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies, such as local storage (localStorage), work in the same way and fall under the same rules. On this page we call all of them cookies.
What is stored when you visit the website
Everything listed below is strictly necessary. Nothing is used to recognise you on other websites or to build a profile of you.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration | Set by |
|---|---|---|---|---|
vena-cookie-notice | Local storage | Remembers that you have closed the cookie message, so it does not appear on every page. It holds only a version number and a date. | 12 months, then the message shows again | Vena (this domain) |
__cf_bm | Cookie | Lets Cloudflare, which delivers the website, tell normal visits from automated traffic and protect the site against attacks. Set only when Cloudflare needs it. | 30 minutes | Cloudflare |
cf_clearance | Cookie | Remembers that your browser has passed a Cloudflare security check. Set only if such a check is shown. | Usually 30 minutes | Cloudflare |
What we do not use
- Analytics or statistics tools (such as Google Analytics)
- Advertising, tracking pixels or remarketing (such as from Meta or Google)
- Embedded videos, maps or social media content
- Fonts or scripts from other domains: the fonts are hosted on our own domain
Staff only: the content panel
The content panel (/admin) is password protected and for Vena staff only. The cookies below are set only when a staff member signs in; ordinary visitors never get them.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration | Set by |
|---|---|---|---|---|
sb-…-auth-token | Cookie | Keeps the staff member signed in to the panel (sign-in through Supabase). May be split into several parts (.0, .1 …). | Until sign-out, at most 400 days | Vena (this domain) |
vena_admin_lang | Cookie | Remembers the language the staff member chose in the panel. | 12 months | Vena (this domain) |
Service providers
The website runs on Cloudflare, which delivers the pages and protects them against attacks. Text and images come from Supabase, but the images reach you through our own domain, so your browser does not contact Supabase. As with any website, these providers process technical information, such as your IP address, to deliver the pages.
Two domains, kept apart
venaiskrem.no (Norwegian) and venaicecream.com (English) are two separate domains. Anything stored is stored for each domain separately, and neither domain can read what the other has stored.
Your choices
Because we only use what is strictly necessary, there is nothing to switch on or off. You can open the cookie message again at any time, and you can delete everything stored in your browser's privacy and site data settings.
If we ever start using tools that need consent, we will ask you first. Saying no will then be as easy as saying yes, and you will be able to change your choice at any time.
Legal framework
Storing and accessing information in your browser is governed by section 3-15 of the Norwegian Electronic Communications Act (ekomloven). Storage that is strictly necessary to provide a service you have asked for is exempt from consent (section 3-15, second paragraph). The rule is based on Article 5(3) of the EU ePrivacy Directive. The Norwegian Communications Authority (Nkom) and the Norwegian Data Protection Authority (Datatilsynet) supervise it.
