What cookies are

Small files, remembered choices

Cookies are small text files stored by your browser when you visit a website. They allow a site to remember information between page loads, such as a preference or a session state.

Some cookies are necessary for a site to work; others are optional and require consent. On this site, the two groups are kept apart: a cookie that keeps a form secure or remembers a session is set without a decision from you, while anything optional waits for your answer.

Cookies used on this site

This site sets strictly necessary cookies where they are required for basic functions, including form submission and security. Optional cookies, where present, are used to understand aggregate page usage and are only set after consent.

A full list of cookie names, purposes, and lifetimes is maintained with the site's technical documentation and is available on request.

Required to run

Strictly necessary

Set for form submission, security and session handling. Without them, parts of this site — including the contact form — cannot work correctly. They are set on your visit and are not controlled by a consent choice.

Purpose
Session state and form protection
Lifetime
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser
Consent
Not required — set on the basis of a legitimate operational need

Set only with your answer

Optional

Where present, optional cookies help us understand aggregate page usage. They are set only after you give consent, and the site continues to work if you decline them.

Purpose
Aggregate page usage, no advertising networks
Lifetime
Persistent cookies, where used, expire after the period stated in the cookie list
Consent
Required — set only after you agree

The technical documentation holds the current list — cookie names, purposes and lifetimes — and it is sent on request to the association's address.

Consent and how to change it

Where optional cookies are used, they are set only after you give consent. Consent can be withdrawn at any time by clearing stored cookies in your browser settings or by using the consent control on the site.

Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before withdrawal. If you withdraw, the site continues to serve its pages and forms; only the optional measurement stops.

The consent control itself does not require an account and does not collect any data beyond recording your decision.

Managing cookies in your browser

All major browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies can prevent parts of the site, including the contact form, from working correctly.

Instructions for your specific browser are provided by the browser's own help pages.

If a form or page behaves unexpectedly after a change to your cookie settings, contact the association and describe what happened — the site's setup can then be checked against your case.

Third-party services

What we embed, and what we do not

This site does not embed advertising networks or social media tracking pixels.

Where an external service is used, such as map display on the contact page, the provider may set its own cookies when the content loads, and its own privacy policy applies to that processing. That processing is the provider's, not the association's, and the provider's own terms govern what it stores.

If you prefer to avoid those third-party cookies entirely, keep the embedded page closed until you need it — the address and contact details are available as plain text as well.

Retention of cookie data

  • Session Deleted when you close your browser.
  • Persistent Where used, expire after the period stated in the cookie list.
  • Server records Retained according to the periods described in the privacy policy.

The privacy policy names those retention periods in full; this page only points to them.

Changes to this policy

Current version

Applies from 9 November 2026

This policy is updated if the cookies used on the site change. The current version applies from the date shown above.

Any material change will be described on this page, so the version you are reading here is the one in force.
