Effective date: January 1, 2025
This Cookie Policy explains how NaviEurope.com (the “Website”) uses cookies and similar technologies, including cookies set by Google Analytics, what they are, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.

2) What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit websites. They help websites work properly, remember your preferences, and (if you agree) support analytics.
We may also use similar technologies (e.g., local storage). For simplicity, we refer to all of these as “cookies”.
3) Why we use cookies
We use cookies to:
- ensure the Website functions correctly (e.g., security and basic site operation),
- remember cookie preferences,
- measure traffic and improve the Website using Google Analytics (only if you consent, where required).
4) Types of cookies we use
A) Strictly necessary cookies (always on)
These cookies are essential for the Website to operate and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting privacy preferences.
Examples:
- cookie consent preference cookie,
- security/session cookies needed for basic operation (if applicable).
Legal basis: legitimate interest and/or necessity to provide the service (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) and/or Art. 6(1)(b)).
B) Analytics / statistics cookies (Google Analytics) (optional)
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Website (e.g., pages visited, time on site, basic interaction data). This helps us improve content and functionality.
Analytics cookies are used only if you consent (where required by law).
Legal basis: consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a)) where required.
5) Google Analytics cookies (examples)
Depending on your browser, device, and the current Google Analytics configuration, Google Analytics may set some of the cookies below. The names and retention periods can change if Google updates its technology or if our configuration changes.
| Cookie name | Provider | Purpose | Typical duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Distinguishes users for analytics reporting | Up to 2 years | Analytics | |
| _ga_<container-id> | Persists session state for Google Analytics (GA4) | Up to 2 years | Analytics | |
| _gid | Distinguishes users for analytics reporting | 24 hours | Analytics | |
| _gat / _gat_* | Throttles request rate (limits data collection on high-traffic sites) | 1 minute | Analytics |
Note: Google Analytics may process online identifiers (such as cookie IDs) and may also collect information about your device/browser and on-site activity. Google may process data as an independent controller for its own purposes as described in Google’s policies.
6) Third-party cookies
Google Analytics is provided by Google and may involve third-party cookies or data processing by Google.
We recommend reviewing Google’s privacy and cookie information for more details.
7) Managing cookies and consent
Cookie banner / settings
If the Website displays a cookie banner or preference tool, you can manage your choices there at any time (e.g., accept/reject analytics cookies).
Browser settings
You can also control cookies via your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete cookies, block cookies entirely, or block third-party cookies.
Please note: blocking strictly necessary cookies may cause parts of the Website to stop working correctly.
Google Analytics opt-out
You can also prevent your data from being used by Google Analytics by using browser controls or Google’s opt-out options (if available for your browser/device).
8) Do Not Track (DNT)
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” option. Because there is no common standard for interpreting DNT signals, we currently do not respond to DNT signals in a uniform way.
9) Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legal requirements, or Website functionality. The current version is always available on the Website with the updated effective date.
