Cookie Policy
Last updated: 27.07.2026
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that are stored on the visitor's device when the website is used. They may be necessary for the operation of the site, may remember settings that have been made, or may provide information about the way the site is used.
This policy also applies to similar technologies through which information is stored on, or accessed from, the visitor's device.
2. What cookies we use
The site uses:
- strictly necessary cookies;
- Google Analytics analytics cookies – only after consent has been given.
At present we do not use marketing cookies.
3. Strictly necessary cookies
Strictly necessary cookies provide basic functions such as security, the operation of the forms, retaining the contents of the shopping cart and remembering the choice made about cookies.
They are not used for advertising or analytics purposes and are activated without prior consent, because the site cannot work properly without them.
4. Analytics cookies
Once consent has been given, we use Google Analytics 4 – a service of Google Ireland Limited that helps us understand how visitors use the site. Through it we receive aggregated information about visits, the pages used and interactions with the site.
Google Analytics is not activated before the visitor has given consent for analytics cookies.
Further information about the way Google processes data is available in the Google Privacy Policy.

6. Managing your choice
On your first visit you can:

Declining analytics cookies does not limit your ability to use the online store.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time through the “Cookie settings” link, available at the bottom of the site.
7. Browser settings
Most browsers allow cookies to be reviewed, blocked and deleted. Blocking the strictly necessary cookies may cause certain functions of the site to work incorrectly.
