Cookie Policy

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the website operator about how visitors use the site.

Cookies may be stored on your device for varying lengths of time. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period unless you delete them manually or through your browser settings.

Similar technologies such as web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage may also be used in ways that are functionally similar to cookies. Where this policy refers to "cookies", it also applies to these technologies unless otherwise noted.

Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies for the following general purposes:

• To ensure this website functions correctly and securely
• To remember your cookie consent preferences so we do not ask you repeatedly
• To understand, in an aggregate and anonymised way, how visitors interact with the content on our pages
• To help display relevant content to visitors who have consented to marketing cookies

We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal data or to create detailed profiles of individual users without their explicit consent.

Types of Cookies We Use

We classify the cookies on this website into three categories: necessary, analytics, and marketing. The following sections describe each category in detail.

Necessary Cookies

Necessary cookies are essential for this website to function. They do not require your consent under the ePrivacy Directive because they are strictly necessary to deliver the service you have requested.

The yfg_consent cookie is set by our own cookie consent system. It records whether you have accepted, rejected, or customised your cookie preferences. Without this cookie, you would be asked about your cookie preferences every time you visit.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use this website. The information collected is aggregated and anonymised — it does not identify individual users. We use this information to improve the structure, content, and usability of the website.

Analytics cookies are only placed on your device if you have explicitly consented to them using our cookie consent tool. You may withdraw this consent at any time.

Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies are used to track visitors across websites. The intention is to display content that is relevant and engaging for individual users. These cookies are only placed on your device if you have explicitly consented.

At the time of writing this policy, we do not actively use marketing cookies on this website. This section is included for transparency. If marketing cookies are introduced in the future, this policy will be updated before they are placed, and consent will be re-requested where required.

Consent and Control

When you first visit this website, a cookie consent banner appears at the top of the page. This banner gives you the option to accept all cookies, reject optional cookies, or customise your preferences by category.

Your consent is recorded using the yfg_consent cookie. You can change your preferences at any time by clearing the yfg_consent cookie from your browser and revisiting the site, at which point the consent banner will appear again.

Consent obtained through our cookie banner meets the requirements of Article 7 of the GDPR and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive: it is freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous. You are not required to consent to optional cookies to use this website.

Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on this website may be set by third-party services. These include analytics providers (such as Google Analytics, if enabled) and any third-party content embedded on the site (such as maps). Third-party cookies are governed by the privacy policies of those third parties, not by this policy.

We have embedded a Google Maps iframe on our contact page. Google may set cookies when you interact with the map. This is subject to Google's privacy policy. We recommend reviewing Google's privacy documentation if you are concerned about how Google handles data.

Managing Cookies Through Your Browser

In addition to using our consent tool, you can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies. The method for doing this varies by browser. You can find instructions for the most common browsers below:

• Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data
• Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and Site Data
• Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
• Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Cookies and site data

Please note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites you visit. Necessary cookies cannot be blocked through our consent tool, but they can be deleted via your browser. Doing so may affect your experience on this site.

Legal Framework

This Cookie Policy is prepared in compliance with the following legal instruments:

• Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR)
• Directive 2002/58/EC (ePrivacy Directive)
• Polish Telecommunications Law (Ustawa Prawo Telekomunikacyjne) implementing the ePrivacy Directive
• Polish Act on the Protection of Personal Data (Ustawa o ochronie danych osobowych, 2018)

The supervisory authority for cookie-related data protection matters in Poland is the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Danych Osobowych, UODO).

Policy Updates

This Cookie Policy may be updated when we change the cookies we use or when applicable law requires us to update our disclosures. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent update. Where changes are significant, we will reset the consent banner so that you can review and re-confirm your preferences.
