Privacy policy

How this website handles your data, which cookies we use and what your rights are.

Last updated: November 1, 2026

What data do we collect?

We only collect the data needed to run the website and to communicate with you:

  • Technical data: IP address, browser and operating system, visited URL, referring page and time of access.
  • Anonymous visitor statistics: visit counts, pages viewed, country, device type and clicks on selected links (registration, results, document downloads). They don't reveal who visited the site.
  • Data you send us: your name, email or phone number and message, if you contact us.

How do we collect your data?

You provide most of the data directly. We collect data when you:

  • browse our website: your browser automatically sends technical data to our hosting provider and to the Umami statistics service,
  • email us, call us or message us on social media.

We don't receive data about you from other sources. Event registration is not part of this website. Links lead to external forms (such as Google Forms) or to other organisers' websites, and information on how registration data is processed is provided in the form itself or in the event regulations.

How will we use your data?

We only use your data for these purposes:

Our legitimate interests do not override your rights: we don't use technical data to identify you, the statistics are anonymous. When you contact us, we only process what you choose to send.

Providing data when contacting us is voluntary, but we can't reply without it. We don't use automated decision-making or profiling (Art. 22 GDPR).

We only share data with these recipients, who help us run the website:

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. They are used, for example, to remember settings or to track visitor behaviour.

How do we use cookies?

We only use cookies to remember your chosen language. We don't use them for analytics, advertising or tracking; the Umami statistics service works without cookies. That's why there is no cookie banner.

Slovak law does not require your consent for essential cookies (Section 109(8) of Act No. 452/2021 Coll. on Electronic Communications).

What types of cookies do we use?

We use a single functional cookie:

How to manage cookies

You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings. The website still works without them; it just won't remember your language.
