Cookies Policy
Every cookie and browser storage key mhlsq.ro uses, and how to control them.
In short
The site works without any optional cookie. Google Analytics only loads after you press "Accept all" or enable analytics in "Customize", as required by Art. 4(5) of Romanian Law 506/2004 and the GDPR. Until then, no analytics cookie is set and no request is sent to Google.
What is stored
| Name | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
| mhlsq-cookie-preferences | Local storage. Your cookie consent choice. | Until you clear your browser data |
| theme | Local storage. Light or dark theme. | Until you clear your browser data |
| mhlsq-chat-logging | Local storage. Whether you allowed the AI chat conversation to be saved. | Until you clear your browser data |
| mhlsq-chat-thread | Session storage. Keeps the chat open between pages during your visit. | Until you close the tab |
| _ga (only after consent) | Google Analytics 4 cookie. Distinguishes visitors. | 2 years |
| _ga_<ID> (only after consent) | Google Analytics 4 cookie. Keeps the session state. | 2 years |
Strictly necessary vs optional
- Theme, the consent choice and the chat storage only remember settings you chose yourself, so they do not need consent (Art. 4(5) of Law 506/2004).
- Google Analytics cookies are optional and need your consent. Refusing them does not limit anything on the site.
- There are no advertising, remarketing or social media tracking cookies.
Changing your choice
- Use "Cookie preferences" in the footer of any page. If you withdraw consent, the Google Analytics cookies are deleted.
- You can also delete or block cookies from your browser settings.
- Google offers a browser add-on that blocks Google Analytics on all sites: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
