Cookie policy
Last updated: September 2026
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser. Some are needed for the site to work at all; others help us understand how it is used.
Legal basis and consent
Necessary cookies are stored without your consent. Act No. 452/2021 Coll. on electronic communications allows this for files without which the service you asked for could not be delivered.
Everything else is stored solely on the basis of your consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You give that consent with a button in the banner shown on your first visit. Browsing the site, scrolling it, or dismissing the banner does not count as consent — leave the banner unanswered and we store nothing beyond the necessary files, and the measurement tag is never loaded at all.
The cookies we use
The tables below match what the site actually stores: they are built from the same list that fills the consent banner, so the two cannot drift apart.
Necessary cookies
Needed for the site to work and to remember your choice in this dialog. They do not require consent, because the site could not be delivered without them, so they cannot be switched off.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|---|
| cc_cookie | Kovadlina | Stores your choice in this dialog so we do not ask again. | 6 months |
Analytics cookies
They help us see which pages people visit and how the site is used. We read the results in aggregate, not to work out who you are — but the data is not fully anonymous, so we store it only with your consent.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Expiry |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Distinguishes one visitor from another. | 2 years | |
| _ga_* | Holds the session state for this Google Analytics property. | 2 years |
Changing or withdrawing your consent
You can change your choice and withdraw consent at any time — withdrawing is exactly as easy as giving it. Open the settings from the footer of any page, or .
When you withdraw consent we delete the cookies concerned. You can also manage and block them in your browser settings, and Google Analytics can be turned off through the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
Recipients and transfers outside the EU
Analytics cookies are set by Google; the controller for the European Economic Area is Google Ireland Limited. The data may also be processed outside it, with Google relying on standard contractual clauses or another mechanism under Chapter V GDPR. How Google handles the data is described in its privacy policy.
