Cookies Policy

Last updated: 2024

This Cookies Policy explains how Qaxufa ("we", "us", "our"), operator of the online language learning platform available at this website, uses cookies and similar storage technologies when you visit our site. It has been prepared in accordance with the Polish Telecommunications Law of 16 July 2004 (Prawo telekomunikacyjne), in particular Article 173, and the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General Data Protection Regulation, "GDPR") as implemented and enforced in Poland by the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Danych Osobowych, "UODO").

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember certain information between page views or visits, such as your preferences or choices you have made. Under Polish law, storing or accessing cookies on a user's device generally requires the user's consent, except for cookies that are strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the user.

2. The Cookie We Use

Qaxufa keeps its use of cookies deliberately minimal. The only cookie set by this website is described below.

Cookie name Purpose Duration Type
consent_mode Stores the choice you make regarding cookie and advertising consent, so that the website remembers your preference and does not ask again on every visit. 1 year Essential (functional)

We do not use analytics cookies, tracking pixels, or any session-identifier or cross-site-request-protection cookies. No third-party analytics service of any kind is deployed on this website. We do not set cookies associated with search engines, social networks, or any other external analytics provider.

3. Essential vs. Optional Cookies

Polish and EU law distinguish between cookies that are strictly necessary for the functioning of a website and those that are optional and require the visitor's prior consent.

3.1 Essential cookies

The consent_mode cookie is essential in the sense that it is required to record and respect your own choice about cookies. Without it, the website would not be able to remember whether you have already made a decision, and would have to ask you again on every page. For this reason it is set regardless of the outcome of your consent choice, but it stores nothing beyond that choice.

3.2 Optional cookies

Qaxufa does not currently set any optional cookies of its own, such as analytics, preference, or profiling cookies. Should this change in the future, this policy will be updated in advance and your consent will be requested before any such cookie is placed on your device.

4. Advertising Measurement

Qaxufa may use advertising measurement tools to understand the effectiveness of a completed action, such as a course enrollment. This measurement runs only after you have given your consent through the cookie banner, and only on the confirmation page displayed after you complete that action. No advertising measurement takes place anywhere else on the site, and none takes place before consent has been given. If you decline consent, no advertising measurement is triggered at any point during your visit.

5. How to Change or Withdraw Your Consent

When you first visit our website, you are presented with a cookie banner where you can accept or decline the use of the consent_mode cookie and the advertising measurement described above. You may change your decision at any time by:

Most browsers allow you to see what cookies are stored on your device and to delete them individually or block cookies from particular websites. Instructions vary depending on the browser you use; please consult your browser's help documentation for details.

6. Your Rights Under Polish and EU Law

In connection with our use of cookies and any related processing of personal data, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time, to request access to information about how the consent_mode cookie is used, and to lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office (Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Danych Osobowych), the supervisory authority for data protection matters in Poland, if you believe your rights have been infringed.
