Cookie Policy
This page explains which cookies and similar browser technologies this website uses today. In short: the public website currently sets no cookies of its own and uses no analytics or advertising tools.

What is in use today
| Category | Status |
|---|---|
| Strictly necessary / functional | In use |
| Preferences (remembered between visits) | Not used |
| Analytics | Not used |
| Advertising | Not used |
Because only strictly necessary storage is used, the site does not currently ask for cookie consent. If we add analytics or advertising tools, we will ask for your consent before they run and update this page first.
Browser storage used by this website
These items stay on your device and are not sent to us automatically. Session-storage items are cleared when you close the tab; the notice record is kept in local storage so the notice is not shown on every visit. All of them are strictly necessary for features you use.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Kept |
|---|---|---|---|
| bc_visit | Session storage | Opens each new visit in Latvian, then keeps the language you choose for the rest of the visit. | Until the tab is closed |
| bc_entrance_choice | Session storage | Remembers that you have passed the homepage entrance screen. | Until the tab is closed |
| bc_chat_messages | Session storage | Keeps your conversation with the website assistant while the tab is open. | Until the tab is closed |
| bc_chat_language | Session storage | Remembers the language you chose in the assistant. | Until the tab is closed |
| bc_cookie_notice | Local storage | Records that you closed the cookie notice (and, once optional tools exist, your choices), with the date and notice version. | 12 months, or until this notice changes |
An earlier version of the site saved a language cookie (bc_locale). The site now removes it automatically if it is still in your browser.
Third parties
This website does not embed third-party trackers, maps, videos or social-media widgets. Fonts are served from our own hosting. If you click a WhatsApp or phone link, the app or service you open applies its own cookies and policies.
Our hosting provider processes technical request information (such as IP address and browser type) to deliver and protect the site. This is server processing, not a cookie placed by us.
The cookie notice
Because nothing optional is used today, the notice only informs you and offers “Understood”; there is nothing to accept or reject. Closing it stores the bc_cookie_notice record described above, so the notice does not reappear for 12 months unless this policy changes.
Analytics and advertising
Not in use today. If we later use tools such as Google Analytics or Google Ads to measure visits or advertising, they will only run after you agree in a consent banner offering “Accept optional”, “Reject optional” and per-category choices. You will be able to change or withdraw your choice at any time through “Cookie settings” in the footer, and this page will list each cookie, its provider and how long it is kept.
Staff admin area
Our separate staff admin area (not used by visitors) sets sign-in cookies that keep staff logged in, and a cookie that remembers the admin interface language.
Managing storage
Closing the tab clears all of the items above. You can also clear site data at any time in your browser settings; the site will keep working.
