2. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. They keep the site working correctly, improve its performance, measure traffic and personalise content or advertising.

Using cookies may also involve limited processing of personal data, in particular:

• a truncated IP address,
• device and browser type,
• operating system,
• language settings,
• approximate location (such as country or region),
• the time and manner of your interaction with the site (pages viewed, clicks, forms),
• the referral URL,
• online identifiers (cookie ID, session ID, advertising identifiers).

More detail on how we process personal data, including processing unrelated to cookies, is set out in our privacy policy, available on this website.

3. Legal basis for processing

Necessary cookies

Necessary cookies provide the basic functions of the site, such as displaying pages and security.

We process them on the basis of a legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. These cookies do not require your consent, because the site could not work correctly without them.

You may object to processing based on a legitimate interest (see ‘Your rights’ below).

We use necessary cookies only to the extent required to secure and provide our services; they are not used for marketing or analytics.

Analytics, preference and marketing cookies

We use analytics, preference and marketing cookies only with your explicit consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. You can withdraw or change that consent at any time through the cookie settings on our website.

Refusing or withdrawing consent does not affect your ability to use the site; it may however limit some non-essential features, such as remembering your preferences, and lead to less relevant, non-personalised advertising.

If you refuse analytics cookies, traffic and performance may be measured only in anonymised mode via Google Consent Mode v2, without storing marketing or analytics identifiers on your device.

Marketing cookies may involve profiling, that is evaluating aspects of your behaviour on the site in order to show personalised advertising. Such profiling has no legal or similarly significant effects within the meaning of Article 22 GDPR.

4. Types of cookies used

* Actual retention may differ depending on your browser settings and the rules of individual third parties.

5. Third-party tools

The following third-party services may be used on our website:

• Google Analytics (Google Ireland Ltd.) – measuring traffic and site performance
• Google Ads (Google Ireland Ltd.) – personalising and targeting advertising, remarketing
• Facebook Pixel (Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd.) – advertising on social networks and remarketing

These services may process data such as a truncated IP address, device and browser identifiers, information about user behaviour on the site and other online identifiers.

The recipients, or categories of recipients, of personal data obtained through cookies may include:

• web hosting and IT service providers,
• providers of analytics and marketing tools (such as Google and Meta),
• advertising and media agencies,
• other parties providing technical support for the website and online marketing on our behalf.

Transfers outside the EU

Using these services may involve transferring personal data to third countries, in particular the USA. Such transfers take place:

• under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, where the provider is certified, and/or
• under Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) approved by the European Commission.

We will provide further information about the safeguards used, or a copy of the relevant standard contractual clauses, on request using the contact details in section 1.

5.1 Cookies managed by third parties

Some cookies used on this site are managed directly by third parties, such as Google Ireland Ltd. or Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. In those cases those parties are separate controllers who determine the purposes and means of processing.

You may exercise some of your rights, such as access, erasure or restriction of processing, directly with those third parties. Details of their processing and how to exercise your rights are in their privacy policies:

• Google – privacy policy and rights request form
• Meta (Facebook, Instagram) – privacy policy

For third-party cookies, fully restricting or erasing processing may require settings both in our cookie banner and in your browser or directly in your accounts with those services.

If you contact us about processing carried out by those third parties as separate controllers, we will offer general assistance, such as pointing you to their contact details or forms, but we cannot control or direct their processing on your behalf.

6. Managing and withdrawing consent

You can withdraw or change your consent to cookies at any time through the cookie settings, available on every page of the site via the ‘Cookie settings’ link in the footer.

You can also manage cookies directly in your browser – see your browser's help pages, where you can delete existing cookies or block them from being stored.

7. Your rights

In relation to personal data processed through cookies, the GDPR gives you in particular the following rights:

• the right of access to your personal data,
• the right to rectification of inaccurate or incomplete personal data,
• the right to erasure (‘right to be forgotten’),
• the right to restriction of processing,
• the right to data portability,
• the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests,
• the right to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before its withdrawal,
• the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority, which in the Czech Republic is the Office for Personal Data Protection – Úřad pro ochranu osobních údajů (www.uoou.cz).

You can exercise your rights using the contact details in section 1 (e-mail, telephone, postal address).
