Cookie Notice

This website uses a single necessary cookie, which remembers your decision about cookies. Everything else — today that is only Google Analytics — loads solely if you choose “Accept” in the banner.

Until you decide, nothing is stored and nothing is measured. You can change your choice at any time via “Cookie settings” in the footer.

What cookies and similar technologies are

A cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser and reads on your next visit. It lets a site remember settings, a login or the contents of a basket; analytics and advertising cookies, by contrast, follow how you use websites — often across many sites and over a long time.

Local and session storage in the browser, tracking pixels, device fingerprinting and similar identifiers work in much the same way. The rules that apply to cookies apply to them as well.

Which cookies, and why

Only these cookies can arise on the website:

iam_consent
Ours, strictly necessary. Stores your decision (accept or reject) and the consent version. Set only when you choose, valid for 180 days. Contains no personal data and is shared with no one.
_ga
Google Analytics, analytics. A random identifier that distinguishes visitors. Only with consent; valid for up to two years.
_ga_<ID>
Google Analytics, analytics. Keeps the session state for the property. Only with consent; valid for up to two years.

Analytics measures page views, approximate location, device and browser, and the page you came from. Google truncates the IP address before storing it. We use no advertising features, no Google signals and no linking with other Google services. Data in the tool is kept for no more than 14 months.

Who the controller is, on what basis we process data and what rights you have is set out in the privacy policy.

Consent, and how to change it

On your first visit the banner asks whether you accept analytics. The two buttons are equal: “Accept” loads Google Analytics, “Reject” leaves the website as it is — unmeasured. Until you decide, nothing loads and nothing is stored; you can read the page normally in the meantime.

You can change your decision at any time: click “Cookie settings” in the footer and choose again. On withdrawal we stop measuring and delete the Google Analytics cookies from your browser; data already collected until then cannot be retrieved from Google afterwards, but it is kept only for a limited time.

Your choice is valid for six months, after which we ask again. We also ask again if what the consent covers changes.

We check this too: with every significant change we load the website in a browser and confirm that, before your choice, there is no cookie, no entry in browser storage and no request to any outside address.

Why there is a banner

The Slovenian Electronic Communications Act (ZEKom-2) and the General Data Protection Regulation require your prior consent for any storing of data in your browser, or access to it, unless it is strictly necessary for a service you have explicitly requested. Analytics cookies are not strictly necessary, so we do not set them without consent.

A cookie that remembers only your decision is strictly necessary — without it we would have to ask on every visit — so it needs no consent. Consent is voluntary: rejecting has no consequences for your use of the website.

Hosting

The pages are delivered to visitors by Vercel Inc.. On this website the provider sets no cookies and embeds none of its own scripts; it processes only technical request data, as described in the privacy policy.

If this changes

Should we introduce a further tool that stores data in the browser — an embedded video, for example — we will update this notice beforehand, list it here with its purpose, provider and duration, and ask you again in the banner.

The last-updated date at the top of the page shows when this notice was last reviewed.

Managing cookies in your browser

Independently of the banner, you can also control cookies in your browser. Every modern browser lets you, in its privacy settings, view and delete stored cookies, block third-party or all cookies, and clear site data when the browser closes. If you block all cookies, we cannot remember your choice and the banner will ask on every visit; reading the pages is unaffected.
