No tracking.
No banner.
This website does not track you. It stores one single thing on your device — the code of the language you pick yourself in the switcher. Nothing else: no measurement, no advertising. That is why you will find no consent window here: the technically necessary minimum needs none.
Effective from: August 11, 2026
What cookies are
A cookie is a small file a website puts in your browser so that it can “remember” you on your next visit — a sign-in, the contents of a basket or your behaviour on the page, for example. Other browser storage such as local storage works the same way.
Why there is no cookie banner here
Consent under Section 109(8) of Slovak Act No. 452/2021 Coll. on electronic communications is required when a website stores data in the terminal device or accesses data stored there. The same sentence exempts whatever is strictly necessary to provide a service the user has explicitly requested — and remembering the language you clicked is exactly that. Nothing else is stored, so there is nothing to ask consent for.
This is not a technical quirk but a decision: we measure traffic with our own tool on our own server, and that needs no cookies. Instead of following an individual, it is enough for us to know which page does its job — this is described in detail in our privacy notice.
What the website stores on your device
| Category | Status on this website |
|---|---|
| Strictly necessary technical cookies | one — pws_lang holding the code of the chosen language (12 months); it is set only after you click the language switcher |
| Analytics and statistics cookies | none — we measure traffic with our own tool, which needs no cookies |
| Marketing and advertising cookies | none — there are no advertising scripts on the website |
| Third-party cookies (social networks, videos, maps, chat) | none — there is no such content on the website |
Choice of language
The website has a Slovak, a Czech, a German and an English version, and each of them lives on its own domain. Come straight to one of them and you get its language — we redirect you nowhere. Only the international domains act as a signpost: by the language set on your device — the browser sends it on its own in the header of every request — they send you to the domain of your language. The detection itself stores nothing: it runs again on every request and the header is never written down.
Only when you click another language in the switcher does the website put your choice into a technical cookie pws_lang valid for 12 months.
It holds two letters of the language code and nothing else — no identifier that could recognise a device or a person. Its only job is to keep your next visit from bouncing you back to your device language. Delete it and the language is determined from the device setting again.
How to verify this and how to manage cookies
You can check it without having to take our word for it: in your browser open the developer tools (the F12 key), the Application or Storage tab, and look at the list of cookies for this domain. Until you click the language switcher, it will be empty. After you pick a language you will find a single entry there holding its two-letter code. A further cookie on the domain appears once the operator signs in to the non-public administration of the website, which visitors cannot reach.
You can view, block and delete cookies from any website in your browser settings:
Changes to this policy
If we ever add a tool to the website that stores more than the technically necessary minimum, proper consent with the option to refuse will come first and this text will be rewritten. The effective date above always matches the last substantive change.
