This website does not use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. Because they are strictly necessary, the cookies above do not require consent.
Display preference
If you choose the light or dark mode using the button in the header, that choice is saved in your browser’s local storage (key theme), purely to remember your preference on later visits. It is not a cookie, is never sent to our server and contains no personal data. You can delete it at any time in your browser settings.
Third-party content
The map on the Contact page (Google Maps) is only loaded after you click “Show map”. At that point, Google may set cookies or process data under its own policy. Links to social networks (WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok) lead to external websites with their own policies.
How to manage cookies
You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking the necessary cookies may affect the operation of the contact form.
