Cookies
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Similar technologies, such as local storage in your browser, are covered by this policy too.
2. Legal basis
We store or read information on your device only with your prior consent, after giving you clear information. Cookies that are strictly necessary to provide the website you request do not need consent. Where cookies involve personal data, the legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) or, for strictly necessary cookies, our legitimate interest in a secure website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
3. Strictly necessary storage (no cookies)
We do not set any cookies on this website. We store one item in your browser’s local storage: les_consent – first-party; it stores your cookie choice and the date you made it, so we do not ask again on every page; it is kept for 6 months, after which we ask again. Nothing else is stored on your device.
4. Your choice and how to change it
When you first visit, a banner lets you “Accept all”, “Reject all” or choose by category under “Settings”. All buttons are shown at the same level and with the same visibility; no option is pre-selected. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time via the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of every page; withdrawing is as easy as consenting.
5. Browser settings
You can also delete cookies or block them in your browser settings. If you block strictly necessary cookies, the form may not work.
6. External links and social media
Our LinkedIn icon and the link to LES International are plain links. No content from these services is embedded and they set no cookies on our website. Once you follow a link, the other website’s own policies apply.
7. Analytics (Matomo)
With your consent we use Matomo, an analytics tool installed on our own server in Romania, to count visits, see which sections are read and how many people send the form. We configure Matomo without cookies; IP addresses are shortened (anonymised) before storage and no data is shared with third parties. Statistics data is deleted after 14 months. Matomo runs only after you click “Accept all” or enable “Analytics” in Settings.
8. Contact and updates
