Our website, https://blacktech.equipment (hereinafter: “the website”), is operated by BLACKTECH j.d.o.o.

This policy explains which cookies we use, why we use them and how you can manage your choice.
2. What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores in your browser. Local storage and session storage are similar browser features that let a website remember information on your device. Session storage is deleted when you close the browser tab; cookies and local storage remain until they expire or you delete them.
3. Types of cookies we use

These are required for the web store to work: they keep your shopping cart and wishlist, carry your order through checkout, remember the country you selected for VAT and shipping estimates, and remember your cookie choice. They are not used for tracking or advertising and, under applicable law, do not require your consent.
3.2 Statistics cookies. With your consent we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the website (for example which pages are visited and how visitors arrive at the website), so that we can improve it. These cookies are placed only after you click “Accept all”.

If you click “Essential only”, only strictly necessary cookies are used. Your choice is stored for 180 days, after which we ask again.
