This cookie policy explains how Metafores Online uses cookies, localStorage and similar technologies when operating the website and the services of the Platform.

This policy supplements the personal data protection policy and the terms of use of Metafores Online.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small files stored on your device by the browser when you visit a website. They may be used to make a service work properly, keep you signed in, remember your choices or protect the Platform from misuse.

Similar technologies, such as localStorage or browser tokens, may store choices or technical details in your browser.

2. Necessary cookies and storage

The Platform uses necessary cookies and technical storage for basic functions, such as:

  • user sign-in and authentication,
  • secure session management,
  • temporary storage of data while creating a transport request,
  • displaying system messages,
  • storing the preferred language,
  • storing your cookie choice.

Necessary cookies cannot be disabled from the banner, because without them certain services cannot work properly.

3. Language and localStorage

When you change language, your choice may be stored in a cookie and in browser localStorage so that the Platform is shown in your preferred language.

4. Google reCAPTCHA

The contact form uses Google reCAPTCHA to protect against automated or abusive use. During verification, technical data such as a verification token, IP address and browser details may be sent to Google.

reCAPTCHA may use cookies or similar technologies according to Google's policies.

If you choose to receive web push notifications, the browser may create and store a related notification token. The token is used to send functional notifications related to the Platform.

You can change or withdraw web push notification permission from your browser settings.

At present, the basic operation of the Platform does not require analytics or advertising cookies. If non-essential cookies are used in the future for analytics, advertising or similar purposes, consent will be requested where required by law.

7. Managing cookie choices

You can accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies or customize your choices from the cookie banner. You can also open the cookie settings again from the link in the website footer.

You may also delete or block cookies from your browser settings. Disabling necessary cookies may affect or make use of the Platform impossible.
