1. Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are files or identifiers stored on your device. Technologies such as localStorage can store similar information in the browser. Some are strictly necessary to provide a requested service, while others, such as analytics technologies, require your permission before activation.
2. What we currently use
The current version of the website does not have analytics or marketing cookies enabled. The website uses local browser storage to remember your privacy preference under the key sam-cookie-consent-v1, so the consent interface can remember whether you allowed or rejected Analytics.
This preference is not used for profiling or advertising.
3. Google Analytics
We intend to use Google Analytics 4 solely for aggregated website usage statistics. Google Analytics is not yet active as of this version of the policy.
Once enabled, analytics code will load only after you choose «Accept all» or explicitly enable «Analytics» in preferences. If you choose «Necessary only», Google Analytics will not load.
After final configuration, this page will be updated with the exact identifiers, relevant durations and any other required technical details.
4. Categories
- Necessary: functions that are indispensable or preferences explicitly requested by the user; they are not used for advertising and cannot be disabled through the banner when strictly necessary.
- Analytics: measurement of how the website is used; this category is optional and activates only after consent.
5. Changing your choice
On your first visit you can choose «Accept all», «Necessary only» or open «Preferences». You can later reopen the panel through «Cookie settings» in the footer and change your choice at any time.
You can also delete website data in your browser settings. Removing the preference will cause the banner to appear again.
6. Legal basis for non-essential technologies
Storage of, or access to, information on a device for non-essential purposes, including statistical measurement, takes place only after consent, in accordance with applicable electronic communications rules and the GDPR where personal data is involved.
7. Third-party providers
After Google Analytics is enabled, Google will act as a technology provider for analytics and apply its own data-processing policies and safeguards. The website is hosted/delivered through Cloudflare infrastructure, which may process technical data necessary to deliver and secure traffic.
