Cookies & Storage
Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how KrakowMap uses cookies, local storage, and similar browser technologies to run the service, remember preferences, support moderation and security workflows, and — where enabled — measure traffic or serve advertising.
Read this policy together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
1) What this policy covers
For simplicity, this policy refers to cookies, local storage, session storage, and similar browser-side technologies collectively as "cookies and browser storage".
2) Why KrakowMap uses cookies and browser storage
We may use cookies and browser storage to:
- keep the service working and secure,
- remember consent choices and visual preferences such as theme,
- remember interaction state such as liked pins or submission progress on your device,
- support anti-abuse or moderation-related workflows,
- measure traffic or support advertising, where such technologies are enabled and legally permitted.
3) Categories of cookies and browser storage
Necessary
Required for core website operation, security, network handling, and basic product functionality.
Preferences
Used to remember choices such as theme, interface state, or consent settings.
Interaction memory
Used locally on your device to remember items such as liked pins or draft / pending submission state, improving continuity of use.
Analytics
Used to measure traffic, diagnose issues, and improve the service where enabled and, if required, based on consent.
Advertising
Used by advertising partners, including Google AdSense where enabled, for ad delivery, frequency control, measurement, and fraud prevention, subject to applicable consent rules.
4) Third-party technologies
KrakowMap may rely on third-party services such as advertising partners, security tools, and external content platforms. When you open or interact with embedded or linked content from services such as YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook, those providers may also use their own cookies or similar technologies under their own policies.
5) Managing consent
Where required by law, optional analytics and advertising technologies are used only after you make a valid choice. You can update your choice using the cookie banner when available, or by clearing relevant cookies and browser storage in your browser.
6) Browser controls
Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or restrict cookies and local storage. Doing so may affect some KrakowMap features, including remembered preferences, continuity of drafts, or parts of embedded content.
7) Contact and updates
