Cookie Policy

Cookies are small files a site stores in your browser. Some are read only by this site (first party), others are set by an outside service (third party).

We use two that the site needs to work, and analytics cookies that run only if you accept them. Nothing here is used for advertising and nothing follows you to other websites.

Refusing costs you nothing. Every page works the same either way.

NEXT_LOCALE is a first-party cookie that remembers whether you are reading the site in English or Albanian. It is a session cookie, so it disappears when you close your browser.

elitedev-consent is first-party and kept in your browser's local storage rather than as a cookie. It records whether you accepted or rejected analytics so we do not ask again on every page, and it stays until you clear it or use the control above.

Both exist only to make the site behave the way you asked it to, so under the ePrivacy rules they are set without consent.

If you accept, Google Analytics 4 sets two third-party cookies. One is named _ga and distinguishes browsers so returning visits are not double counted. The other begins with _ga_ followed by our property identifier and holds the current session state. Both expire two years after your most recent visit.

They tell us which pages get read and where people give up. They do not tell us who you are, and we never combine them with anything you type into the contact form.

Until you accept, Google Consent Mode keeps analytics storage denied, so these cookies are never written and no analytics identifier is stored on your device. If you refuse, they are never set at all.

Google acts as a third party here and processes this data under its own terms, which you can read at policies.google.com/privacy.

We use Vercel Web Analytics to count page views. It sets no cookie and stores nothing on your device. Visitors are told apart by a hash derived from the incoming request, and that hash is discarded after 24 hours.

It records the page address, the referrer, approximate location at city level, and device, browser and operating system type. It cannot follow you to another site and cannot identify you.

Because nothing is stored on your device, this falls outside the cookie consent rules and runs on our legitimate interest in knowing which pages get read. You can still object: use the switch at the top of this page and no page views will be sent from this browser.

No advertising cookies, no remarketing pixels, and no social media trackers. Google's advertising storage is set to denied permanently rather than only until you choose, so it stays off even if you accept analytics.

Use the switches at the top of this page. Turning something off takes one click, exactly like turning it on, and applies immediately. Switching analytics cookies off also deletes the ones already on your device.

Your browser can block or delete cookies for every site you visit. Blocking the strictly necessary ones means this site forgets your language preference.

How we handle personal data more broadly, and your rights over it, are in our Privacy Policy.

If anything here is unclear, email [email protected] and we will explain it in plain terms.
