Which cookies and similar technologies this site uses, why, and how you control them.

Last updated:

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files a website stores on your device. Similar technologies, such as your browser’s local storage, work in a comparable way. We refer to all of them as “cookies” in this policy.

2. Strictly necessary (always on)

These are needed for the site to work and to remember the choices you make. They do not track you and do not need your consent.

  • smas-consent (local storage): remembers your cookie choice. Kept until you clear it or we change this policy.
  • theme (local storage): remembers whether you chose light or dark mode. Kept until you clear it.

3. Analytics (only with your consent)

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors find and use the site, so we can improve it. These cookies are not set, and the Google Analytics script is not loaded, unless you click “Accept all” or switch Analytics on in Cookie settings.

  • _ga: distinguishes one visitor from another. Expires after 2 years.
  • _ga_<container-id>: keeps the state of your current visit. Expires after 2 years.

Google Analytics reports are aggregated and do not tell us who you are. Google acts as our service provider. You can read how Google uses this data at policies.google.com/privacy.

4. What we do not use

We do not use advertising, retargeting or social media tracking cookies. Our fonts are served from our own site, so loading a page does not contact third-party font services. Links to WhatsApp or social networks only share data with those platforms when you click them.

5. Changing your choice

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking “Cookie settings” at the bottom of any page. If you switch Analytics off, we stop Google Analytics and delete its cookies from this site.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary storage may mean the site asks for your cookie choice on every visit.
