Last updated: 13 June 2026. Version 1.3.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files saved on your device (computer, phone, tablet) when you visit websites. They serve to remember your preferences, maintain a session and collect statistical information about how the site is used.

Cookies do not contain data allowing direct identification of the user - we do not store your name, email address or phone number in them.

2. Legal basis

The use of cookies is governed by:

Polish Electronic Communications Law (Act of 12 July 2024) - requirement to inform and obtain consent for the use of cookies and similar technologies (replaced the Telecommunications Law repealed on 10 November 2024).

Article 6(1)(a) GDPR - consent as the basis for processing data from analytical and marketing cookies.

Article 6(1)(f) GDPR - the controller’s legitimate interest as the basis for necessary cookies (session, security, user preferences).

Article 7(3) GDPR - right to withdraw consent.

Articles 13 and 14 GDPR - information obligations.

3. Types of cookies

First-party cookies - set directly by our site (chcedointernetu.pl domain).

Third-party cookies - set by external services (Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Facebook, Cloudflare).

By storage time:

Session cookies - deleted when the browser is closed.

Persistent cookies - remain on the device for a defined period (from 24 hours up to 2 years).

4a. Third-party tools loaded on explicit consent

On selected pages of the Site we make available tools from third-party providers that may store their own cookies. To give you full control, these tools do not load automatically. They appear as a placeholder with a description and a "Load" button. Only your click triggers loading of the tool and its associated cookies.

Localo (Google ranking audit tool). Provider: Localo (jstools.localo.app). Located on: /en/free-google-ranking-audit (or its Polish equivalent /darmowy-audyt-pozycji-w-google). What it stores: analytical and marketing cookies of Localo and its sub-providers (including Google Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, Rudder, Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Reddit Pixel). These cookies are not covered by our consent mechanism (Consent Mode v2). Their scope is documented in Localo’s own privacy policy.

YouTube (videos in portfolio and case studies). Provider: Google LLC / YouTube. Located on: /en/portfolio , /en/case-studies/kopiko-gra , among others. We embed videos in enhanced privacy mode (youtube-nocookie.com). YouTube cookies are stored only after you click Play, in the scope required for the player to function. We do not use these videos for ad personalisation.

Your decision regarding a third-party tool is stored locally in your browser (localStorage) so that we do not ask again on subsequent visits. You can revoke that consent at any time by clearing site data in your browser settings.

5. Google Consent Mode v2

We apply Google Consent Mode v2, which means that:

By default all marketing and analytical consents are disabled (denied).

Google Analytics and Google Ads scripts activate only after explicit consent.

Your choices in the cookie banner automatically update Google settings (analytics_storage, ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization).

If consent is refused, Google does not store cookies - it may only send anonymous pings without identifiers (so-called cookieless pings).

Thanks to Consent Mode v2, analytical and marketing scripts load in your browser only after you have given explicit consent. Before consent is given, no identifying data is collected.

6. How to manage cookies

You can withdraw consent to analytical and marketing cookies at any time by clicking "Cookie settings" in the site footer. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal (Article 7(3) GDPR).

Independently of withdrawal of consent, you may request deletion of data already collected via earlier cookies under Article 17 GDPR (right to be forgotten). Send your request to ratunku@chcedointernetu.pl .

In line with GDPR requirements we record the fact of granting or refusing consent to cookies. We store:

A pseudonymous identifier (hash of the IP address - we do not store the full IP).

Date and time of the consent.

Selected cookie categories (necessary / analytical / marketing).
