Cookie policy.

Last updated: June 2026 — in short: our site does not set its own cookies.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website can place in your browser when you visit it. They can store information about your preferences or your activity on the site, for various purposes: technical operation, statistical analysis or personalization.

2. First-party cookies

The paywithsmile.ro website does not set or use its own cookies. There are no tracking mechanisms, sessions stored in cookies, or preferences saved through this site.

3. Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com)

The site loads typefaces from Google's servers, through the Google Fonts service. This operation involves a technical transfer of your IP address to Google's servers, as part of the normal communication between the browser and the server. This mechanism does not set cookies in your browser. Google may process the IP address in accordance with its own privacy policy, available at policies.google.com/privacy.

4. Server logs (Hostinger)

The site's hosting service, provided by Hostinger, automatically generates technical server logs. These may include the visitor's IP address, the date and time of access, the page accessed and the browser type. This data is stored by the hosting provider for technical and security purposes and does not constitute cookies. It is not used by the association to identify or track visitors.

5. Google Analytics 4 (section prepared — currently inactive)

The site has a technical section prepared for Google Analytics 4. This functionality is currently inactive.

Google Analytics 4 will only be activated after the implementation of a consent banner that allows visitors to accept or decline analytical cookies, in accordance with GDPR requirements. This section will apply only after such activation.

Upon activation, Google Analytics 4 will use the following cookies:

  • _ga — identifies unique visitor sessions; storage duration: 2 years;
  • _ga_* (account-specific identifier) — records the session state; storage duration: 2 years.

These cookies serve an exclusively statistical and analytical purpose: they allow the association to understand how the site is used overall, without directly identifying individuals. The data is processed by Google LLC in accordance with its privacy policy.

Until effective activation and the display of the consent banner, no Google Analytics cookie is placed in your browser.

6. Controlling cookies

Internet browsers allow visitors to manage, block or delete cookies through their own settings. Disabling cookies does not affect the operation of the paywithsmile.ro website, as the site does not rely on cookies for its core functioning.
