Cookie policy
Last updated: September 2, 2026
Version 1.0
This policy explains what cookies are, which cookies we use on www.eqsint.com, why we use them, and how you can change your choice at any time.
We process the data collected through cookies in accordance with our Privacy policy.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website and that the website can read later. They allow your device to be recognized on your next visit, your settings to be remembered, or the use of the website to be measured.
Other technologies can serve similar purposes, so everything written here applies to them as well:
- Browser local storage (localStorage, sessionStorage) — data that stays in the browser without being sent to the server with every request.
- Pixels and transparent images (web beacons) — tiny images in pages or emails that record that the content was opened.
- Third-party software development kits and scripts — code loaded from another service provider's servers.
By duration, we distinguish session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, and persistent cookies, which remain until they expire or until you delete them. By origin, we distinguish cookies set by our website (first-party cookies) and those set by other service providers whose content we use (third-party cookies).
2. Legal basis
We set cookies that are technically necessary for the website to work and to provide a service you have explicitly requested without your consent — they are required for the website to function at all.
For all other cookies — analytics, functional and marketing — we ask for your prior consent. Until you give it, they are not set. The legal basis for processing is consent within the meaning of Article 12(1)(1) of the Law on Personal Data Protection (LPDP) and Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR, in conjunction with the regulations on electronic communications and Directive 2002/58/EC.
Consent is voluntary. If you do not give it, or withdraw it later, the website will keep working — only certain additional features may be unavailable.
3. Categories of cookies we use
3.1. Necessary cookies
They enable basic functions: maintaining the session, signing in, form security, balancing server load, and remembering your cookie choice. The website cannot work properly without them, so they cannot be turned off.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| __RANDOM | eqsint.com | Maintaining the user session during the visit | Until the browser is closed |
| XSRF-TOKEN | eqsint.com | Protecting forms against abuse (CSRF) | 2 hours |
| CookieConsent | Cookiebot (Usercentrics) | Remembering your cookie choice | 12 months |
3.2. Functional cookies
They enable embedded content such as videos. If you do not accept them, embedded content may not be displayed.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE, YSC | YouTube (Google) | Displaying embedded videos | Up to 6 months / until the browser is closed |
3.3. Analytics cookies
They help us understand how the website is used — which pages are visited most, where visitors come from and where they run into problems. We use the data in aggregate form to improve the content and structure of the website.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishing visitors | 2 years |
| _ga_<ID> | Google Analytics | Maintaining session state | 2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics | Distinguishing visitors | 24 hours |
| visitor_id<ID> | Salesforce Account Engagement (Pardot) | Recognizing the visitor across forms on the website | Up to 10 years |
3.4. Marketing cookies
They are used to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and to show ads that are more relevant to you, including on other websites and social networks. They may involve profiling.
| Name | Set by | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _gcl_au | Google Ads | Measuring ad conversions | 90 days |
| _fbp | Meta (Facebook) | Ad measurement and targeting | 90 days |
| li_fat_id | Conversion measurement and ad targeting | 30 days |
4. Third-party cookies
Some cookies are not set by us but by service providers whose content or tools we use. For that processing they act as independent controllers and apply their own privacy policies:
- Cookiebot / Usercentrics A/S (cookie notice and consent records) — cookiebot.com/privacy-policy
- Google (Analytics, Ads, YouTube, Maps) — policies.google.com/privacy
- Salesforce (Account Engagement / Pardot) — salesforce.com/company/privacy
- Meta Platforms (Facebook, Instagram) — facebook.com/privacy/policy
- LinkedIn — linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy
Using these tools may involve transferring data outside the Republic of Serbia; see section 8 of the Privacy policy for more.
5. How to change your choice
On our website
On your first visit we show a notice in which you choose which categories of cookies you accept. You can change that choice at any time by clicking Cookie settings in the website footer. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it.
We use the Cookiebot service (Usercentrics A/S) to display the notice and record your consent. Until you give consent, analytics and marketing tools do not run.
In your browser
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings:
- Chrome — Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox — Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari — Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge — Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Keep in mind that deleting cookies from your browser also deletes the record of your previous choice, so we will ask you again on your next visit.
Opting out with service providers
For Google Analytics there is also a browser add-on that disables data collection on all websites: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. You can also change ad settings for individual platforms directly in your accounts with them.
6. What if you decline cookies
The website will work without your consent — you can browse all content and contact us. Without functional cookies, your settings will not be remembered between visits and embedded content may not be displayed. Without analytics cookies, we will not see how the website is used, which makes it harder for us to improve it. Without marketing cookies, you will still see ads, they just will not be tailored to your interests.
7. Changes to this policy
We update the list of cookies whenever we add or remove a tool, and at least once a year. The current version is always published on this page, with the date of the last update at the top. If we introduce a new category of cookies that requires consent, we will ask you again.
