1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website.

They help the website function properly, improve the user experience, analyze traffic, and, in certain cases, display relevant content.

Cookies do not allow for the identification of a specific individual without additional data.

In addition to cookies, we may also use other similar technologies (e.g., web beacons or pixels) that serve a similar purpose, and we process them in the same way as cookies.

Cookies and similar technologies may automatically collect the following information, for example:

  • device information (device type, operating system, unique device identifiers),
  • location data (IP address, time zone),
  • website usage data (frequency of visits, sections viewed, usage patterns).

2. What Cookies Do We Use

Essential cookies

These cookies are necessary for the basic functionality of the website.

Without them, the website would not function properly.

Legal basis:

Examples:

  • storing cookie settings,
  • security features,
  • user login,

Analytical cookies

They help us understand:

  • the number of visitors,

We use the WP Statistics tool to measure website traffic; this tool runs directly on our website—statistics are not shared with any third parties. IP addresses are anonymized and hashed, and the tool does not store any cookies on your device.

Traffic measurement begins only after consent is granted in the “Statistics” category.

These allow the website to remember your preferences and customize the user experience accordingly, such as your selected language or region.

Legal basis:

Visitor consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR

Preference cookies are stored only after you give your consent.

Marketing cookies and third-party content

Some pages embed YouTube videos and Google Maps. These services may store their own cookies on your device and process data in accordance with their own terms and conditions. We do not use advertising tools (e.g., tracking pixels) on our website.

Legal basis:

Visitor consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR

Embedded videos and maps will only load after you give your consent; until then, a prompt asking for permission will be displayed instead.

The names of the cookies we use on our website and the purposes for which we use them are listed below.
