Cookie Policy

Information about cookies and similar technologies used by SANE Europe.

Last updated: 31 August 2026

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on a device when a website is visited. Similar technologies, including local storage, may also remember preferences or support website functions. First-party cookies are set by this website; third-party cookies are set by external services.

How we use them

We use strictly necessary technologies for website administration, security and form operation. Functional technologies may remember a selected language or enable an external translation service. We do not currently use an analytics or advertising plugin. If analytics, advertising, embedded social media or another non-essential service is added, this policy and the consent mechanism will be updated before activation.

Current cookie inventory

Name/category	Provider	Purpose	Duration
`googtrans` — functional	GTranslate / Google Translate	Stores the language pair selected by the visitor	Session in the current implementation
Consent-preference cookies — necessary	Cookie consent manager	Stores the visitor’s accept/refuse choices	According to the duration displayed by the consent manager
WordPress authentication cookies — necessary	SANE Europe / WordPress	Secure login and administration; these apply only to authorised website users	Session or the selected login period

The GTranslate interface loads resources from translate.google.com when a visitor activates or interacts with the translation service. This may disclose technical data, including IP address and browser information, to Google. Translation is optional and the original English content remains available without it.

Consent and withdrawal

Where consent is legally required, the relevant cookie or third-party service will remain disabled until consent is given. Refusing non-essential cookies must not prevent access to the core website. You may change or withdraw your choice at any time using the “Manage cookie preferences” link in the footer.

Browser controls

Most browsers allow cookies to be viewed, blocked or deleted. Blocking some functional cookies may cause the language preference or another requested feature not to work as expected.
