Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how samake-jutumi.info uses them, and what choices you have regarding their use. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides broader context about how personal data is handled on this website. The use of cookies on this website is governed by the Polish Telecommunications Law (Prawo telekomunikacyjne, Dz.U. 2004 Nr 171 poz. 1800, as amended), the Polish Act on Providing Services by Electronic Means (Ustawa z dnia 18 lipca 2002 r. o świadczeniu usług drogą elektroniczną, Dz.U. 2002 Nr 144 poz. 1204), and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, Regulation EU 2016/679).

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits and to store certain preferences or information. Cookies are widely used across the internet for purposes ranging from keeping you logged in to a service, to understanding how visitors use a website, to delivering advertising relevant to your interests. Not all cookies function in the same way or serve the same purpose, and this policy distinguishes between the different types used on this site.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website to function correctly. They cannot be disabled without affecting your ability to use the site. On samake-jutumi.info, the strictly necessary cookie is the one used to store your cookie consent preference. This cookie is named sji_consent and is set when you interact with the cookie consent bar at the top of the page. It records whether you have accepted or declined non-essential cookies, so that the consent bar does not reappear on subsequent visits. This cookie does not contain personally identifiable information and expires after twelve months. Its use is lawful under Article 6(1)(c) of GDPR as necessary for compliance with legal obligations regarding informed consent, and under the Polish Telecommunications Law which requires that cookie consent be obtained and respected.

Functional and Performance Cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, more personal features. Performance cookies collect anonymous information about how visitors use the website, such as which pages are visited most frequently and whether error messages are received. On samake-jutumi.info, functional and performance cookies may be set by our web hosting provider in the course of delivering the website to your browser. These cookies do not identify you personally and the information collected is used only in aggregate form. They are only set with your consent, which is requested via the cookie consent bar. If you decline non-essential cookies, these cookies will not be set.

How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences

You can manage your cookie preferences in several ways. The cookie consent bar displayed at the top of this website when you first visit gives you the option to accept or decline non-essential cookies. Your choice is stored in the sji_consent cookie and respected on all subsequent page views. If you wish to change your preference, you can clear your browser cookies and reload the page, which will cause the consent bar to reappear. You can also manage cookies directly through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. The method for doing this varies by browser; please consult your browser's help documentation for specific instructions. Note that blocking all cookies, including strictly necessary ones, may affect the functionality of this and other websites. Useful guidance on cookie management in common browsers is available from the Polish Office for Personal Data Protection (PUODO) and from browser developers directly.
