This policy explains what cookies are, when they may be used on journalassn.eu, and what options you have for controlling them.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that may be stored on your device when you visit a website. They can be used for technical operation, remembering preferences or, where implemented, audience measurement and other functions.

2. Types of cookies that may be used

• Strictly necessary cookies – enable essential functionality, security and technical administration. They may be used without consent where they are indispensable for providing a service requested by the user.
• Preference cookies – may remember user choices, such as display or language settings, if such features are implemented.
• Analytics/statistics cookies – may help us understand how the website is used. If analytics technologies requiring consent are introduced, they will be activated only after consent has been obtained where required by law.
• Marketing cookies – are generally used for advertising and profiling. The website is not currently designed to conduct its own behavioural advertising; if this changes, users will be informed and consent will be requested where necessary.

3. Current website configuration

As of the last update of this policy, the website is configured primarily to display journal content and its own website code does not include analytics or advertising tools intentionally designed to set non-essential cookies.

Technical hosting, security or content-delivery infrastructure may use identifiers or technologies that are strictly necessary to provide and protect the service. If third-party services are integrated in the future, this policy will be updated accordingly.

4. Third-party cookies

Some pages may contain links to third-party websites or external resources. A link alone does not mean that journalassn.eu controls cookies placed by those services after you leave our domain. Please review the relevant provider's cookie and privacy information.

5. Cookie duration

Cookies may be session cookies, which are deleted when the browser is closed, or persistent cookies, which remain on the device for a defined period or until manually deleted. The exact duration depends on the purpose and configuration of each cookie.

6. How to control or delete cookies

Most browsers allow you to view, block and delete cookies through privacy or security settings. You can configure your browser to reject certain cookies or notify you before they are stored. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect the operation of some website components.

7. Consent for non-essential cookies

If the website introduces non-essential cookies or similar technologies for which consent is legally required, they will not be activated before the user has made a choice through an appropriate consent mechanism. Consent will be capable of being withdrawn or changed later.

8. Personal data and cookies

Where information collected through cookies or similar technologies can directly or indirectly identify a person, it will be treated as personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy and GDPR.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the technologies used on the website, legal requirements or platform operation change. We recommend reviewing this page periodically.
