Cookie Policy

Last updated: 25.09.2026

This Cookie Policy explains how the website deschidem-mantuleasa.yvs.ro, operated by Asociația Youth Vision for Society, uses cookies and similar technologies.

This policy complements the Privacy Policy and explains what cookies are, which categories may be used on the website, for what purposes, and how you can manage your preferences.

1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files that may be stored on a user’s device when they access a website. They may be used for the technical operation of the website, security, remembering certain preferences, or measuring traffic and interactions with the website.

The website deschidem-mantuleasa.yvs.ro uses cookies on a limited basis: strictly necessary cookies for operation and preference management, as well as analytics/statistics cookies through Google Analytics, only after the user has given consent.

2. What types of cookies we use

2.1. Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are necessary for the technical operation and security of the website or for remembering the user’s cookie choices. They are not used for behavioural analysis or advertising.

Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent insofar as they are essential for providing the functionality requested by the user.

2.2. Analytics/statistics cookies

These cookies help us understand, at an aggregate level, how the website is used: which pages are accessed, how long visitors spend on the website, the types of devices used, traffic sources, and certain interactions with the pages.

The website uses Google Analytics for these statistics. Analytics/statistics cookies are activated only if the user gives consent for this category.

2.3. Marketing cookies

In its current version, the website deschidem-mantuleasa.yvs.ro does not use marketing cookies or behavioural advertising cookies and does not include embedded external elements used for marketing purposes.

If such features are introduced in the future, this policy and the consent mechanism will be updated before they are activated.

4. Google Analytics

Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google. It may collect information such as pages viewed, duration of the visit, device and browser type, traffic source, and other technical or interaction data.

For standard GA4 implementations, Google documents the _ga and _ga_<container-id> cookies, both with a default duration of 2 years. The technical configuration may be adjusted by the website administrator.

Google Analytics cookies are set only after consent has been given for the analytics/statistics category. Until then, Google Analytics runs in restricted mode (Google Consent Mode): it does not set cookies or store identifiers and only sends anonymous technical signals without cookies. Refusing this category does not prevent the use of the website’s basic functions.

5. How you can manage your preferences

When you first access the website, the cookie management mechanism must allow you to accept or reject cookies that are not strictly necessary and, where applicable, configure your preferences by category.

Preferences can subsequently be changed through the cookie settings option available on the website. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

6. Browser settings

Cookies can also be controlled or deleted through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block cookies, delete existing cookies, or configure rules regarding their acceptance.

Blocking strictly necessary cookies through your browser settings may affect the operation of certain website components.

7. Forms available on the website

The website’s own forms may process personal data submitted directly by the user. This processing is separate from the use of cookies and is described in the Privacy Policy and, where necessary, in the information displayed in the relevant form.

8. Links to external websites

The website may contain links to pages of partners, institutions, funders, social media platforms, or other external resources. The mere fact that a link is displayed on the website does not mean that the external website automatically sets cookies through the Deschidem Mântuleasa page.

After accessing an external website, that website may use its own cookies and similar technologies in accordance with its own policies. Asociația Youth Vision for Society does not control the practices of these platforms.

9. Updates to this policy

This Cookie Policy may be updated periodically, including when the technical configuration of the website, analytics services, or categories of cookies used change.

The updated version will be published on deschidem-mantuleasa.yvs.ro, indicating the date of the latest update.

For questions regarding the use of cookies on the website, you can contact us at office@yvs.ro.
