1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, tablet, or mobile device by websites that you visit. They are widely used to make websites work properly, enhance security, and remember preferences across browsing sessions.
Drentov follows a privacy-by-design approach. We do not use tracking cookies to build personal advertising profiles or track you across other third-party websites.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
We classify the storage technologies used on drentov.site into two distinct categories:
- Essential Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are required for fundamental site operation, navigation, and remembering your cookie consent choice. The website cannot function properly without them.
- Optional Third-Party Embeds: External services (such as Google Maps on our Contact page) that are loaded strictly on your explicit consent.
3. Essential Session & Security Cookies
Essential cookies do not require prior consent under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) because they are strictly necessary to deliver the requested web service. Temporary session tokens expire immediately when you close your web browser.
4. Cookie Consent Record (`drentov_consent`)
When you make a choice in our cookie banner (‘Accept All’ or ‘Essential Only’), a cookie named drentov_consent and a corresponding local storage item are set. This prevents the consent banner from repeatedly interrupting your browsing on subsequent visits. This record is retained for up to 180 days.
5. Cookie Inventory & Lifespans
