This page explains which cookies and similar technologies ihsan.lu uses — and what we deliberately do not do.
In short
We currently set no third-party advertising or analytics cookies. There is no cookie banner because we do not need tracking cookies for statistics or marketing.
If we later measure page views or region in a way that goes beyond strictly necessary cookies (or equivalent), we will ask for consent (banner) or use a privacy-friendly tool without tracking cookies.
Strictly necessary storage
Technically necessary cookies or comparable storage may be used for operation, e.g. language (locale) and the login session in the /pro area.
These are required for the feature you request and generally do not need a consent banner. Legal basis: legitimate interests or contract/feature provision (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f) or (b)).
Payments (Stripe): when you open the donation or payment flow, our provider Stripe sets technically necessary cookies or equivalent means for secure payment and fraud prevention.
Maps (OpenStreetMap): the embedded map loads only after a click; until then there is no connection to OpenStreetMap.
Statistics (optional, later)
Anonymous or strongly aggregated page views (which pages, rough region) without advertising profiles can be useful.
Prefer privacy-friendly tools without unnecessary cookies. Until such a tool is active, we do not set analytics cookies for that purpose.
Browser controls
You can delete or block cookies in browser settings. Blocking necessary cookies may break language selection or admin login.
