Cookie policy

What cookies and browser storage are

Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Browser storage (local storage) works similarly but is not sent to the server with every request. broksy.eu uses them only as described below.

We use no advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking and no social media plugins.

Necessary storage, without consent

When we offer you a version of the page in your language and you close that notice, we store this in browser storage under the name broksy.langBanner.dismissed so as not to show it again. The entry holds no data about you, is not sent to the server and stays until you delete the site's data in your browser.

We store your analytics choice in browser storage under the name broksy_consent: consent or no consent, the date of the decision and the version of this policy. The entry is not sent to the server. After 365 days, or when the version of this policy changes, we will ask again.

If you use an account, we use two cookies necessary for logging in. We set them only when you ask for a login link or log in yourself:

• __Host-broksy_login: set when you ask for a login link, valid for 15 minutes. Thanks to it, the link opens the account only in the browser in which it was requested. We delete it once you log in;
• __Host-broksy_session: lets you use the account in this browser without logging in again. It expires 30 days after it was last used, and using the account extends that period. We delete it when you log out or delete the account.

Both cookies hold only a random string of characters, with no e-mail address or other data about you. Scripts on the page cannot read them, and the browser sends them only to broksy.eu and only over an encrypted connection. They are necessary to provide the service you ask for, so they need no consent. No analytics runs on account pages, not even the cookieless visit statistics, and we show no consent banner there.

Visit statistics are counted with a tool that uses no cookies and no user identifier and shows only aggregate page view counts. Technical error reports use no cookies either.

Analytics that needs consent

If you consent, we use Google Analytics, a service of Google Ireland Limited. It shows us which pages and features of the Site are used, where visitors come from and how long visits last. Without consent the Google Analytics script is not loaded and no data reaches Google.

After consent Google Analytics stores two cookies: _ga, which tells your browser apart from others with a random identifier, and a cookie whose name starts with _ga_ and ends with our site's identifier, which remembers the current visit. Both expire 365 days after your last visit.

The advertising features of Google Analytics are off: we use no Google signals, no ad personalisation and no links to Google's advertising services. According to Google, the service does not store the IP addresses of users in the European Union. Recipients of the data, transfers outside the European Economic Area and the retention period are described in the Privacy policy.

Consent and its withdrawal

On your first visit we show a banner with two equal buttons: "Allow analytics" and "No analytics". Until you choose, analytics does not run.

You can change your choice at any time with the "Cookie settings" button in the footer of every page. After you withdraw consent we stop sending data to Google Analytics and delete its cookies from your browser. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing before the withdrawal.

How to delete stored data

You can delete the entries described in this policy at any time in your browser settings by deleting the data of broksy.eu. The Site works without them too; after deleting the login cookies you need to log in again.

Changes to this policy

Changes to this policy are published with a new version number and date. This version (1.0.0) applies from 30 September 2026. How personal data is processed is described in the Privacy policy.
