Which cookies we use and what each one does
This site writes no cookies until you press “Accept”. Without consent it works in full — we do not gate content to force a yes.
Last updated: 15 September 2026
In short
- Before consent: zero cookies, zero third-party scripts. Google Tag Manager does not even load.
- If you accept: Google Analytics 4, Google Ads and the Meta pixel load through Google Tag Manager.
- If you decline: nothing loads and we do not ask again for six months.
- Any time: change your mind from “Cookie settings” in the footer of every page.
Strictly necessary storage
These work without consent, because without them the site cannot remember your choices. They are not cookies but entries in your browser's local storage — they never travel to us or anyone else.
| Name | What it does | Duration |
|---|---|---|
arhai-consent | Remembers whether you accepted or declined measurement, so we do not ask on every page. | 6 months |
arhai-lang | Remembers whether you chose Romanian or English. | Until you clear browser data |
Measurement and advertising — only with your consent
These load only after you press “Accept”, through Google Tag Manager
(GTM-5QM39NKC). Until then the container is not on the page.
| Provider | Cookies | What it does | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics 4 | _ga, _ga_* | Counts visits and shows which pages help and which get abandoned. Aggregate statistics, not individual tracking. | up to 2 years |
| Google Ads | _gcl_au, IDE | Tells us whether an enquiry came from a paid ad, so we do not burn budget on ads that produce nothing. | up to 13 months |
| Meta (Facebook, Instagram) | _fbp, fr | The same measurement, for Facebook and Instagram ads. | up to 3 months |
Google and Meta are independent controllers for the data they collect through these cookies. Their policies: Google · Meta.
What we do not use
No heatmaps, no session recording, no third-party live chat, no retargeting networks beyond Google and Meta. We do not sell or rent data to anyone. There are no “trusted partners” behind this site.
How to withdraw consent
- Press “Cookie settings” in the footer of any page — the banner returns and you can choose differently.
- Or clear cookies from your browser's privacy settings.
Withdrawal does not affect processing done before it, but it stops any collection from that point on.
