Cookie Policy

Last updated: June 2026

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work the same way. This policy explains which cookies Quantum Shell S.R.L. uses on quantum-shell.com, why, and how you can control them.

2. Legal basis

We use cookies in accordance with Romanian Law no. 506/2004 (which transposes the EU ePrivacy Directive) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Strictly necessary cookies are placed on the basis of our legitimate interest in operating the service. All other cookies are placed only after you give your consent, which is freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous — and which you can withdraw at any time.

3. Strictly necessary cookies

These are required for the site to function (sign-in, security, and remembering your cookie choice). They cannot be switched off and do not require consent.

4. Analytics cookies (consent required)

With your consent, we load Google Analytics 4 on our public pages to understand anonymous, aggregated site usage. These cookies are not set unless you accept them, and are never loaded on the dashboard or any authenticated area. IP addresses are anonymised and we do not enable Google Signals or advertising features.

_ga_*Google AnalyticsPersists session state for the GA4 propertyHTTP cookie2 years

5. Managing your consent

When you first visit, a banner lets you Accept or Reject analytics cookies with equally prominent options. You can change your choice at any time — withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it:

  • Use the link (also in the footer) to re-open the banner.
  • Or clear cookies and site data for quantum-shell.com in your browser settings.

Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies globally via their settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site from working.
