What cookies are
Cookies are small files that a website saves in your browser. The law treats similar technologies the same way — local storage (localStorage), pixels or scripts that read information from your device. Under Art. 4(5) of Law no. 506/2004 and Art. 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive, these may be used only with your consent, except those strictly necessary for a service you have explicitly requested.
What we use on this website
Without your consent, the website sets no cookies. We use the browser’s local storage to remember your choices and, only with consent, two Google services:
gv_consent · local storage
Type
First party · strictly necessary
Purpose
Remembers your consent choice (accepted/declined and the date), so the banner doesn’t reappear on every page.
Retention
6 months; then we ask for your consent again.
gv_a11y · local storage
Type
First party · strictly necessary for the service you requested
Purpose
Remembers your accessibility panel preferences (text size, contrast etc.). Created only if you turn on an option.
Retention
Until you press “Reset settings” or clear your browser data.
Google Fonts · third-party service
Type
Third party · only with consent
Purpose
Downloads the brand fonts (Bricolage Grotesque, Figtree) from the servers of Google Ireland Ltd. It sets no cookies, but it sends Google your IP address and browser data, with a possible transfer to the US under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.
Without consent
The website works fully, using system fonts.
Google Analytics 4 · third-party service
Type
Third party · only with consent (the “Statistics” category)
Purpose
Measures, in aggregate, which pages are visited, on which type of device and from which country, so that we can improve the website. The service is provided by Google Ireland Ltd., with a possible transfer to the US under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. We use Google Consent Mode v2 with advertising storage denied; the data are not used for advertising or profiling.
Cookies
_ga and _ga_TNGJ74THCD, for up to 14 months. They are deleted automatically if you withdraw your consent.
Without consent
The Google Analytics script does not load at all and nothing is sent to Google.
Google Ads · conversion measurement · third-party service
Type
Third party · only with consent (the same “Statistics” category)
Purpose
Counts, in aggregate, how many contact and support forms are sent after a click on our Google ads (the Google Ad Grants programme for non-profits), so that we know which campaigns bring partners and donors. The service is provided by Google Ireland Ltd., with a possible transfer to the US under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. Advertising storage stays denied (Consent Mode v2): no advertising cookies are set, we do no retargeting and build no audiences.
Cookies
No advertising cookies. It uses the Google tag already loaded for Analytics.
Without consent
Nothing loads and nothing is sent to Google.
What we don’t use
traffic analytics tools other than Google Analytics and Google Ads conversion measurement;
tracking pixels or tags (Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn etc.);
personalised advertising, retargeting or selling audiences;
device fingerprinting.
Google Analytics was introduced on 29 September 2026, after this page was updated, and starts only with your consent. If we ever add other tools, we will likewise turn them on only with consent, and this page will be updated beforehand. Google Ads conversion measurement was added on 5 October 2026, in the same “Statistics” category.
External services accessed at your request
The educational platforms (Code.org) and the social networks our links point to have their own cookie policies, which you accept or decline directly on those websites.
Email and phone links open the apps on your device; they send nothing automatically.
How you control your choice
You can accept, decline or change your consent at any time, as easily as you gave it — with the button below or the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of every page. You can also clear local storage at any time in your browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge: Settings → Privacy → Site data).
Your privacy settings
Choose what loads on the website. Declining does not limit your access to the content.
The banner and settings follow the guidelines of the European Data Protection Board (EDPB): the “Accept” and “Decline” buttons are equally visible on the first screen, there are no pre-ticked boxes, and access to the website does not depend on accepting. Last updated: 5 October 2026.
