Last updated: 2 October 2026
The website www.europlakat.si uses cookies and similar technologies to ensure the proper and secure operation of the website, store user preferences and, where the user has given consent, provide analytics, external content and other functionality.
The use of cookies is governed by the Slovenian Electronic Communications Act (ZEKom-2), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR – Regulation (EU) 2016/679), and other applicable Slovenian and European legislation relating to privacy and electronic communications.

What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files or pieces of data that a website stores in or reads from a visitor’s browser or device.
They enable the website to function correctly, remember user preferences and, where the user has given consent, measure website usage and enable certain external services.
Cookies may be temporary or session cookies, which are deleted when the browser is closed, or persistent cookies, which remain stored for a defined period or until manually deleted.
Cookies may be set by Europlakat as the website operator or by external service providers whose services are integrated into the website.
Information collected through cookies and similar technologies may in certain circumstances constitute personal data or online identifiers.
Which cookies and technologies do we use?
1. Strictly necessary and functional cookies
These cookies are required for the proper and secure operation of the website and for functions explicitly requested by the user, such as storing privacy preferences or the selected website language.
Without these cookies, the website or certain features may not function correctly. They therefore cannot be disabled through the website’s cookie settings.
| Cookie or service | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
pll_language |
Europlakat / Polylang | Stores the user’s selected website language. | Approximately 1 year | Functional / necessary |
| Privacy preference cookie | Europlakat / consent management system | Stores the user’s choices regarding permitted cookie categories. | Depends on system configuration | Strictly necessary |
| Google reCAPTCHA | Protects online forms against automated abuse, spam and other security threats. | Depends on service | Security / necessary |
Google reCAPTCHA may process technical information about the device, browser, network connection and interaction with the website in order to provide its security functionality.
2. Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. They allow us to measure the number of visits, pages viewed, traffic sources and basic information about website usage.
These cookies are placed only after the user has given prior consent.
We use Google Analytics 4 for website analytics.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Typical duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
_ga |
Google Analytics | Distinguishes users or browsers for statistical purposes. | 2 years | Analytics |
_ga_<container-id> |
Google Analytics | Persists information relating to a user’s session. | 2 years | Analytics |
The website currently uses Google Analytics 4 measurement ID G-HHC7P4MCT3.
Google Analytics may process information including online identifiers, device and browser information, approximate location information, pages visited, visit duration and information about interactions with the website.
If a user does not consent to analytics cookies, Google Analytics must not be activated for analytics purposes in a manner requiring consent.
3. Marketing cookies and external content
Some pages contain embedded videos provided through YouTube, a Google service.
When a YouTube video is activated or displayed, the user’s browser may establish connections to YouTube servers and other Google services, including services related to video delivery, measurement and advertising infrastructure.
Information processed may include the user’s IP address, device and browser information, language, time zone, information about the visit and interaction with the video, and online identifiers.
During a technical review of the website, connections were identified with:
- YouTube,
- Google DoubleClick,
- Google APIs, and
- other technical domains required for the operation of the embedded video player.
YouTube and other related technologies that are not strictly necessary for the basic operation of the website may only be activated after the user has given prior consent.
4. External fonts
The website uses externally hosted web fonts.
During the technical review, connections were identified with Google Fonts and Adobe Fonts / Typekit.
When an external font is loaded, the browser establishes a connection with the provider’s servers. The provider may receive technical information including the user’s IP address, browser type and version, operating system, request time and the requested resource.
The technical review did not confirm that Google Fonts or Adobe Fonts set specific cookies merely as a result of font loading on the Europlakat website. They are therefore identified as external services rather than individual cookies.
Legal basis for the use of cookies
Strictly necessary cookies and similar technologies may be used without consent where they are required for the transmission of a communication or are strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the user.
Analytics, marketing, advertising and other non-essential cookies and similar technologies are based on the user’s prior consent.
Consent must be freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous.
Simply continuing to browse the website, scrolling or performing another passive action does not constitute valid consent.
Non-essential cookies and similar technologies must not be activated before consent has been obtained.
Managing consent
When first visiting the website, users can choose:
- Accept all,
- Reject all non-essential cookies, or
- Cookie settings, where preferences can be managed by individual category.
Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled through the consent management system because they are required for the basic operation of the website.
Analytics and marketing cookies are disabled by default.
Users can change or withdraw their consent at any time through the “Cookie settings” link or button available on the website.
Withdrawing consent must be as easy as giving consent and does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.
Managing cookies through your browser
Cookies can also be deleted or blocked directly through your browser settings.
Most modern browsers allow users to view stored cookies, delete them, block all cookies or only third-party cookies, and configure automatic deletion.
If strictly necessary cookies are disabled through browser settings, certain website functionality may no longer work correctly.
External providers and disclosure of information
When Google Analytics, YouTube, Google reCAPTCHA, Google Fonts, other Google technologies or Adobe Fonts are used, certain information may be received or processed by the external providers of these services.
External providers may process information as processors acting on our behalf or as independent controllers, depending on the particular service and purpose of processing.
International transfers of personal data
Some external providers or their affiliated companies are established or operate infrastructure outside the European Economic Area.
Where the use of an external service results in the transfer of personal data to a third country, the transfer must be based on an appropriate legal mechanism and be subject to the safeguards required by the GDPR.
Further information about processing and international transfers is available in the privacy policies of the relevant external providers and in our Privacy Policy.
Your rights
Where information processed through cookies or similar technologies constitutes personal data, you may exercise your rights under the GDPR, including access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection, data portability and withdrawal of consent.
Requests may be submitted to:
EUROPLAKAT, d. o. o.
E-mail: gdpr@europlakat.si
or to our Data Protection Officer:
DATAINFO.SI, d. o. o.
E-mail: dpo@datainfo.si
If you believe that your personal data is being processed contrary to applicable legislation, you may lodge a complaint with:
