Cookie Policy
Last Updated: 22 July 2026
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies sovogu-suziza.info uses, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside the Privacy Policy. The use of cookies on this website is governed by the EU ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC as amended by 2009/136/EC), implemented in Romania through Law No. 506/2004 on the processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector, as subsequently amended.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function or function more efficiently, and to provide information to the site operator. Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services running on that page ("third-party cookies").
Cookies can be "session cookies" which expire when you close your browser, or "persistent cookies" which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. Not all information stored by websites takes the form of traditional cookies — some technologies such as localStorage operate differently but may serve similar functions. This policy covers all such technologies where relevant.

How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences
When you first visit sovogu-suziza.info, a small card appears in the top-left corner of your browser window. It gives you the option to accept all cookies or open the settings panel where you can enable or disable each non-essential category independently. Your choice is stored in the ssz_cookie_consent cookie for 365 days.
You can change your preferences at any time by clearing the ssz_cookie_consent cookie from your browser, which will cause the consent panel to reappear on your next visit.
You may also control cookies directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. The steps vary by browser:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Manage and delete cookies
- Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
Blocking all cookies through your browser will affect functionality on many websites, not only this one. Strictly necessary cookies may need to remain enabled for the site to function.
For information about opting out of Google Analytics specifically, you may install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Third-Party Content and Embedded Services
The contact page of this website includes a Google Maps embed to display our location. Google Maps may set its own cookies when this embed loads. These are subject to Google's own privacy and cookie policies, which can be reviewed at policies.google.com. By viewing the embedded map, you may interact with Google's services.
External fonts are loaded from Google Fonts. Google Fonts operates in a way that does not set persistent cookies for font delivery, though requests are made to Google's servers. See Google's privacy documentation for details.
Updates to This Policy
This Cookie Policy may be updated when we add new services to the website, when cookie technologies change, or when legal requirements are updated. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. When meaningful changes are made, the consent banner may be reset so you have the opportunity to review the updated categories and re-confirm your preferences.

If you have questions about how cookies are used on this website, contact us at [email protected] or at the postal address listed in the Privacy Policy. You also have the right to raise concerns about cookie use with the Romanian supervisory authority, ANSPDCP, at www.dataprotection.ro.
