Privacy Statement - the Use of Cookies and the Web

Cookies

If you visit a site that writes cookies, a small text “cookie” file is created on your computer or mobile device (including a tablet) while you browse it. If you visit the same site again, the cookie file lets you connect faster. In addition, such a site “recognises” you and offers you the information you prefer, ensures that an already-shown advertisement is not repeated, or lets you log in without re-entering your password. When filling in identification details, cookies offer to complete the data already entered during previous visits to this web environment, and based on this information you are shown relevant content and offers for your likely activities and services you might use.

We use cookies to analyse traffic on our websites through services such as Google Analytics, Google AdSense, Facebook, Strossle or Gemius SA, Exponea and others. This is an analytics tool that helps website and application owners understand how their visitors use these sites. Cookies can be used for statistical data about website use without personally identifying individual visitors.

Legal Basis for Processing

If, when recording, we can identify the person of a visitor to our web environment, this constitutes the processing of personal data. For such processing we must have a legal basis. One legal basis may be your consent as the data subject.

Which Cookies We Evaluate

• Essential cookies - enable the use of basic functions, such as logging in a registered user or pre-filling forms. If you disable these cookies, we cannot guarantee the full functionality of our pages.
• Preference cookies - serve to identify the activities you prefer and consciously perform on our pages.
• Operational cookies - serve to analyse visitor behaviour on the website and subsequently improve its functionality and appearance. If you disable these cookies, we cannot guarantee the full functionality of our pages.
• Marketing cookies - serve to optimise displayed content and advertising with regard to visitor habits and the effectiveness of advertisers’ marketing communication. Thanks to them, for example, you will not be shown advertising from an area you are not interested in unnecessarily often.
• Third-party cookies - are created and used by service providers such as Google Analytics, Google AdSense, Facebook, Strossle, Gemius SA, Exponea and others. These services are integrated into our pages because we consider them useful and fully secure. You can find their usage rules on these companies’ websites.

Automated Decision-Making and Profiling

In our environment, the activities mentioned on our site are not linked to your person, and therefore automated processing has no impact on your rights and freedoms. Likewise, no profiling takes place when processing your data.
