Cookie Policy

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device and which is sent back to that website on later visits. Similar technologies — local storage, session storage — do much the same thing. Cookies can be strictly necessary for a site to work, or optional, in which case they may only be used with your consent.

Cookies are first-party when they are set by the site you are visiting, and third-party when they are set by another company through that site. This website uses no third-party cookies at all.

These are used without consent because the site cannot honour your decisions without them. This website currently uses exactly two:

Name

cig_consent

Set by

cinaingradina.com (first-party)

Purpose

Stores your answer to the cookie banner — which categories you accepted, and when — so that you are not asked again on every page, and so that no optional script is ever loaded against your wishes.

Content

A short technical value recording the categories you allowed, a version number and a timestamp. It contains no identifier and nothing that describes you.

Duration

6 months

Type

HTTP cookie, first-party, SameSite=Lax

Name

cig_lang

Set by

cinaingradina.com (first-party)

Purpose

Remembers whether you chose to read the site in Romanian or in English, so that your next visit opens in the same language.

Content

Two letters — "ro" or "en". Nothing else.

Duration

1 year

Type

HTTP cookie, first-party, SameSite=Lax

If you never answer the banner, the consent cookie is not written at all. If you never change the language, the language cookie is not written either — the site simply opens in Romanian.

The language cookie described above is the only preference this site remembers, and it is counted as strictly necessary because it does nothing but honour a choice you made yourself. There is no theme switcher and no other setting.

None are installed. There is no Google Analytics on this site, no Vercel Web Analytics, no Plausible, no Matomo and no other measurement tool. The Analytics switch in the preference panel exists so that your choice is already recorded if we ever add one. While nothing is installed, turning it on has no effect and loads nothing.

None are installed. There is no Meta Pixel, no TikTok Pixel, no Google Ads tag, no LinkedIn Insight tag and no remarketing of any kind. As with analytics, the Marketing switch records a choice for the future and loads nothing today.

No third-party cookies are set through this website. There are no embedded videos, no embedded maps, no social media widgets and no comment systems, all of which typically bring cookies with them. Typefaces are served from our own domain, so no request is made to Google Fonts.

The footer links to our Instagram profile. That is an ordinary link: nothing is loaded from Instagram until you choose to follow it, and once you do, Instagram's own policies apply.

Delivering a page necessarily produces technical records on our hosting provider's servers — IP address, time, page requested, browser. This is not done with cookies and does not require consent, but you should know that it happens. It is described in section 2 of our Privacy Policy.

• Select Cookie Settings at the bottom of any page to reopen the preference panel and change your answer at any time.
• You can also delete cookies for this site directly in your browser settings, which resets the banner to its initial state and the site to Romanian.
• Every mainstream browser lets you block cookies entirely. Because the only cookies here store your own decisions, blocking them does not break the website — you will simply be asked again, and the site will open in Romanian, on every visit.

Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it, and does not affect the lawfulness of anything done beforehand.

If a new tool is added to the website, this page is updated before that tool goes live, and you are asked for consent again where consent is required. The date at the top shows the current version.
