Cookies

We use cookies on this website. You can read more about how we use cookies on the page Information about cookies.

What cookies are and what they are used for

Cookies are text files that store certain information for a limited period. When you first visit a particular website, your browser automatically downloads these files and stores them on your device (phone, tablet, computer). A cookie contains at least two components: the file name and its value. It usually also contains the date on which it will be automatically deleted (set according to the intended lifetime of the file). There is a difference between session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are automatically deleted as soon as the browsing session ends. Persistent cookies remain stored on your computer for the entire lifetime of the cookie and are deleted only at the end of that period.

Cookies are intended to make visits to websites easier and more user-friendly. Cookies store your preferred settings and, if you return to a given website repeatedly, they allow the site to “remember” which products you last placed in your cart or ensure the site is automatically displayed in your preferred settings or with your preferred font size.

Types of cookies we use

  • Technical / Functional – These cookies are necessary for us to display our website to you and for it to function properly (e.g., to display our content in your preferred settings—such as language—or otherwise make browsing easier).
  • Analytics – These cookies help us analyze how our website performs in terms of visitor behaviour so we can adapt and change the site accordingly.
  • Marketing – With these cookies, we or third parties can tailor our service offering after your visit; such offers may then be displayed to you outside our website as well.

On www.vodapodkontrolou.cz we use YouTube to play video content. Please note that YouTube has its own rules regarding cookies and privacy that we cannot influence. For more details, we recommend reviewing Google’s Privacy Policy.

Why we may process cookies

We may use technical/functional cookies on the basis of legal regulations. Without them we would not be able to provide our services.

Analytics cookies allow us to process our so-called legitimate interest. Of course, we must not force you in any way to such processing and you may object (contact details are provided above). You can stop this processing at any time by browsing the website in private mode or by disabling cookies in your browser settings.

We may process marketing cookies based on your consent. We infer your consent from your browser settings. You can stop this processing at any time by browsing in private mode or by disabling cookies in your browser settings.

How to prevent the use of cookies

Cookies collected for measuring website traffic and compiling statistics about traffic and visitor behaviour are assessed in aggregate form— that is, in a form that does not allow the identification of a website visitor as an individual.

Cookies necessary for the functionality of the website are always stored only for the time strictly necessary for its operation. You can also adjust the permission to use cookies in your browser settings to better suit your needs. Most browsers allow you to accept or delete all cookies or to allow only certain types of cookies. You can prevent cookies from being stored on your end device by selecting “do not accept cookies” in your browser settings.
