Cookie Notice

This page lists the cookies and browser storage used by Képesbolt, their purpose and lifetime. The short version: besides strictly necessary cookies we use Google Analytics statistics cookies on the public kepesbolt.hu pages — only with your consent. We do not use advertising cookies.

Effective and last updated: 26 August 2026

This is an informational translation provided for convenience. In case of any discrepancy, the Hungarian version prevails.

1. What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of text data placed in your browser by a website and sent back on subsequent requests — this is how a site keeps you signed in or preserves your cart. Modern browsers also offer localStorage and IndexedDB. IndexedDB can keep editor drafts and local files in the browser and does not send them to the server automatically. Under the ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC) and Section 155(4) of Hungarian Act C of 2003, cookies that are strictly necessary for providing the service do not require consent — but you must be informed about them. This page provides that information.

Strictly necessary items do not require consent. Statistics cookies (Google Analytics 4) are loaded only after your prior consent in the cookie bar (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR); without consent the Google Analytics code is not loaded at all. Measurement runs only on the public kepesbolt.hu pages — never in photographers' shops or galleries. We use no advertising cookies; Google signals and ad personalisation are disabled. You can withdraw consent at any time with the Cookie settings link at the bottom of the page.

3. Managing and deleting cookies

You can delete cookies and browser storage in your browser settings at any time. Delete local draft in the product designer removes only that editor's locally stored document and image files. Deleting the other necessary storage may sign you out, empty your cart and require re-entering protected galleries.

4. Future changes

Should we introduce further (e.g. marketing) cookies, we will do so only with prior, freely given and informed consent, and this notice will be updated.

This document applies to the Képesbolt platform. Purchases made in a gallery are governed by the legal documents of the Photographer operating that gallery.
