  2. The use of strictly necessary cookies does not require the user’s consent if they are genuinely necessary to provide an electronic service or to transmit a communication over a telecommunications network.

5.2. Functional cookies

  1. Functional cookies make it possible to remember selected user settings, such as language, interface preferences, account settings or other elements that make the Service more convenient to use.
  2. If a given type of functional cookie is not necessary for the service to work, its activation may depend on the user’s consent given via the cookie banner or the preference centre.

Direct marketing of the Controller’s own services may be carried out on the basis of a legitimate interest or consent, depending on the type of communication channel and the specific technological solution, and where required by the laws on electronic communications or the provision of electronic services, the user’s prior consent is required.

5.5. Security cookies

  1. Some cookies and similar technologies may be used to detect abuse and to prevent spam, phishing, malware, scraping, crawling, attempts at unauthorised training of AI models, circumvention of security measures or other incidents affecting the security of the Service and its users.
  2. Such solutions may also be linked to system logs, device identifiers, account operation history and other technical data used to protect the infrastructure, detect incidents and defend against claims.
  3. Some of the above security and content moderation technologies also support compliance with the absolute prohibitions set out in Art. 5 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (the Artificial Intelligence Act / AI Act), including the new prohibition on using AI systems to generate intimate or sexual content depicting a real person without their consent (non-consensual intimate imagery) and content depicting the sexual abuse of children, introduced by the Digital Omnibus on AI package and applicable from 2 December 2026 — in accordance with the rules described in more detail in the Terms of Service of the Service and in the Information on the Artificial Intelligence Act.

6. Legal bases for the use of cookies

  1. For strictly necessary cookies, the basis for their use is that they are necessary to provide electronic services, to ensure the transmission of a communication or for the proper operation of the Service.
  2. For analytics, functional or marketing cookies that are not strictly necessary, the basis for their use is, as a rule, the user’s consent given in the cookie banner, the preference centre or the browser settings, where such a model is legally permissible.
  3. Personal data processed using cookies may also be processed on the legal bases indicated in the Privacy Policy, in particular where this is necessary for the performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, ensuring the security of the Service or pursuing the legitimate interests of the Controller.

7. Cookie banner and consent management

  1. On their first visit to the Service, the user should receive a clear message about the use of cookies, together with the option to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies or go to the detailed settings.

  3. The user should be able to change their cookie settings at any time, in particular via the “Cookie settings” link available in the footer of the Service or in the account panel, if such a feature has been implemented.
  4. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of actions taken before it was withdrawn.

8. Data recipients and third-party tools

  1. Data collected using cookies may be transferred to providers of hosting, cloud infrastructure, CDN, analytics tools, marketing automation, CRM, newsletter services, monitoring and security, and to other entities supporting the operation of the Service, to the extent necessary to achieve the purposes of processing.
  2. The Controller may also use providers of tools used to generate AI content or to support the technical functions of the Service, if their operation involves the processing of technical or operational data.
  3. If a particular provider uses cookies or similar technologies on its own account, the user may also be subject to that provider’s privacy rules, of which the Controller should inform in the relevant clauses, lists of tools or implementation notices.

9. Transfer of data outside the EEA

  1. As a rule, the Controller aims to use providers that process data within the European Economic Area; however, due to the nature of internet services and technology tools, some providers may process data outside the EEA.
  2. If data is transferred outside the EEA, the Controller applies an appropriate mechanism to legitimise the transfer, in particular an adequacy decision, standard contractual clauses or another instrument provided for by Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC, hereinafter “GDPR”.

  2. In particular, the user may delete stored cookies, limit their storage, block selected categories of cookies or configure the browser to notify them each time a cookie is stored.
