1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, phone, tablet) by your web browser when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time.
In addition to cookies, this website also uses localStorage (local browser storage), which is subject to the same legal regulations.
Cookies and localStorage may contain identifiers that enable device recognition, and are therefore treated as personal data under GDPR (Recital 30).
2. Legal Basis
The use of cookies is governed by the following legislation:
- Article 180 of the Polish Electronic Communications Act (Journal of Laws 2024, item 1221) — requirement to obtain consent for storing or accessing information on the user's terminal device.
- Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), Article 6(1)(a) (consent) — for analytics and marketing cookies; Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interest) — for strictly necessary cookies.
- Directive 2002/58/EC (ePrivacy) — requirement of informed consent for cookies that are not strictly necessary for providing the service.
3. Types of Cookies Used
3.1. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. They do not require user consent, as the website cannot operate without them. Legal exemption: Article 180(4)(2) of the Polish Electronic Communications Act (necessity for providing the service requested by the user).

3.2. Analytics and Marketing Cookies

- This policy will be updated before their deployment.
- Analytics and marketing cookies will be set only after obtaining user consent via the cookie banner.
- Users will be able to withdraw consent at any time.

Cookies and local storage mechanisms are used on this website for the following purposes:
- Remembering cookie preferences — storing the user's choice for each cookie category (necessary, analytics, marketing).
- Display preferences — remembering the chosen display mode (light/dark).
- Security — protection against bots, DDoS attacks, and server overload (Cloudflare infrastructure cookies).
- Content management — authenticating administrators in the CMS panel (Keystatic/GitHub OAuth cookies).
5. Managing Cookies
5.1. Cookie Banner
On your first visit, a cookie consent banner is displayed, allowing you to:
- Accept all cookies (necessary + analytics + marketing).
- Reject optional cookies (only necessary cookies remain active).
- Customise settings — choose individual categories: analytics and/or marketing (necessary cookies are always active).
Your choice is stored in the browser's local storage (localStorage).
5.2. Changing or Withdrawing Consent
You can change or withdraw your cookie consent at any time by clicking the "Change cookie settings" link available in the website footer. The cookie banner will re-appear, allowing you to update your preferences.
Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it, in accordance with Article 7(3) of GDPR. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

Every web browser allows you to manage cookies. You can at any time:
- Check which cookies are stored on your device.
- Delete selected or all cookies.
- Block cookies from specific or all websites.
