Cookie Policy

Last revised: 01 January 2026

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how Obranev uses them on this website, and what options you have for managing your preferences.

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They serve a variety of purposes — from ensuring pages load correctly to understanding how visitors navigate the site. Some cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function; others are optional and require your consent.

This policy should be read alongside the Privacy Policy, which sets out the broader framework for how personal data is handled on this site. By accepting cookies when prompted, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this policy.

01

What Are Cookies

A cookie is a small data file that a website places on your browser when you first visit. The file is stored locally on your device and is read by the website on subsequent visits. Cookies can be:

  • Session cookies: Temporary files that expire when you close your browser. They allow the site to remember actions taken during a single visit (for example, whether you have already seen the cookie notice).
  • Persistent cookies: Files that remain on your device for a defined period after the browser is closed. They enable the site to recognise returning visitors.
  • First-party cookies: Set directly by this website (obranev.info).
  • Third-party cookies: Set by external services (analytics platforms, embedded content providers) that appear on this site.

Cookies do not contain executable code and cannot directly harm your device. However, the data they collect — such as IP addresses and browsing behaviour — may constitute personal data under GDPR.

Managing Your Preferences

You have several options for managing cookie preferences. Your choice is stored in the obranev_consent cookie and respected on every subsequent visit.

Via the Cookie Banner
