Cookie Policy
§1General information
This Policy describes how we use cookies and similar technologies on the website www.fudosecurity.com and how you can manage them.
The website is managed by Fudo Security sp. z o.o. with its registered office in Warsaw, Aleje Jerozolimskie 178, 02-486 Warszawa, entered in the Register of Entrepreneurs of the National Court Register (KRS) under number 0000224900, tax identification number (NIP) 5242521745.
This document is not an information notice within the meaning of the GDPR. It describes only the rules for the use of cookies. You can find full information on what personal data we process, for what purposes, who we disclose it to, how long we store it and what rights you have in this respect in the Privacy Policy available at fudosecurity.com/privacy-policy.
§2What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you use the website. They usually contain the name of the website they come from, their storage period and a unique identifier.
In addition to cookies, we use technologies that work in a similar way and are subject to the same rules:
- the browser's local storage (Local Storage) and the IndexedDB database - they store data in the browser until you delete it,
- tracking pixels - invisible graphic elements whose download sends the provider information about your visit; the pixels themselves are not stored on the device.
In the remainder of this Policy, we collectively refer to all these technologies as "cookies". The list in Section 7 identifies the specific technology used for each item.
We also distinguish between session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are deleted when the browser is closed. Persistent cookies remain on the device for the period specified in their parameters or until you delete them yourself.
Some cookies can constitute personal data because of the unique identifier they contain. This applies in particular to Statistics and Marketing cookies.
§3Cookie categories
The storage of information on your device and access to that information are governed by Article 399 of the Act of 12 July 2024 - Electronic Communications Law (Polish: Prawo komunikacji elektronicznej). This provision requires your consent, except where the storage is necessary to transmit a communication or provide a service you have requested.
On this basis, we use three categories:
| Category | What it is used for | Does it require your consent |
|---|---|---|
| Necessary | They ensure the basic and secure operation of the website: protection against automated traffic and remembering your decision on cookies. Without them, the website does not work properly. | No. They fall within the exception in Art. 399(3) of the Electronic Communications Law. |
| Statistics | They make it possible to count visits, recognize returning users and check which content is read. Some of them create an identifier, stored for up to 2 years, that makes it possible to recognize your browser on your next visit. | Yes. We activate them only after you give your consent. |
| Marketing | They make it possible to measure the effectiveness of our campaigns and to show you Fudo Security ads on other websites and on social media. The providers of these tools can combine the collected data with information from other websites and devices and assign you to advertising audience groups. The longest storage period is 400 days. | Yes. We activate them only after you give your consent. |
To the extent that cookies constitute personal data, we describe the purposes, legal bases and periods of processing of this data in the Privacy Policy.
§4Consent and its withdrawal
On your first visit, we display a banner in which you decide on the Statistics and Marketing categories. Until you give your consent, we do not activate any cookies from these categories; only Necessary cookies are active.
- You can give consent separately for each category, accept all or reject all - rejection is available immediately and is just as easy as acceptance.
- Refusing consent does not limit access to the content of the website.
- You can withdraw your consent at any time, just as easily as you gave it, using the cookie settings link available on the website. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of actions taken before its withdrawal.
- After you withdraw your consent, we stop activating cookies from the given category. You can delete cookies stored earlier in your browser as described in section 8.
- We ask you for your decision again at least once every 12 months, and also when the range of tools we use changes.
We record the content and date of your decision so that we can respect it on subsequent visits and demonstrate that it was given.
§5Tool providers
Some cookies come from third parties whose tools we have embedded on the website. These third parties also process data for their own purposes and, to that extent, decide independently how it is used. We use tools from the following providers:

§6How long we store cookies
We state the storage period of each cookie in the list in section 7. Session cookies are deleted after the browser is closed, and the longest storage period of a persistent cookie is 2 years. Data stored in the browser's local storage remains until you delete it.
