Cookie Notice
This Cookie Notice explains how BerrySoft.cz ("we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on this website. We currently only use strictly necessary (essential) cookies and do not deploy analytics, advertising, or social tracking cookies. Should this change, we will obtain your prior consent and update this notice in advance.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device that allow a website to recognize your browser. They perform functions like maintaining a logged‑in session, remembering preferences, and enhancing security. Some cookies only last for the session; others may remain longer unless you clear them.
2. Summary of Cookies / Storage
| Name / Key | Purpose | Type | Retention | Essential | Legal Basis |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PHPSESSID | Maintains your authenticated session and security context. | HTTP cookie (first‑party) | Session (deleted when browser closes) | Yes | Art. 6(1)(b) & (f) GDPR (service delivery & security) |
| bs_lang | Stores your chosen interface language. | HTTP cookie (first‑party) | 12 months (or until you clear cookies) | Yes (preference) | Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (user experience preference) |
| localStorage: bs_cookie_consent_v1 | Records your consent choice (accepted / declined) for audit and to avoid repeatedly showing the banner. | Local Storage (first‑party) | Until deleted by you or version changes | Yes (functional compliance) | Art. 6(1)(c) & (f) GDPR (legal compliance & legitimate interest) |
We do not set: performance / analytics, advertising, social media, nor profiling cookies at this time.
3. Categories (Current & Future)
- Essential: Required for core functionality (authentication, security, preference storage). Cannot be declined individually.
- Analytics (Not in use): Would help us understand usage. Only deployed after explicit opt‑in consent (Art. 6(1)(a)).
- Marketing (Not in use): Would track interests for personalized offers. Requires prior explicit consent (Art. 6(1)(a)).
- Performance / UX (Not in use): Would enhance features (e.g., remembering interface settings beyond language).
If we introduce any non‑essential category, the banner will show granular toggles allowing you to accept or decline each category before any such cookies load.
4. Legal Bases
Essential cookies are necessary to provide the service you request (Art. 6(1)(b)) and to protect the security and integrity of the platform (Art. 6(1)(f)). The consent record storage supports our legal compliance obligations (Art. 6(1)(c) & (f)). Any future analytics / marketing cookies would rely solely on your prior informed consent (Art. 6(1)(a)). You can withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
5. Managing & Withdrawing Consent
