This cookie policy explains how Honeycomb School uses cookies and similar technologies on this website, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP).

1. What are cookies

Cookies are small text files that a website can store on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) to save preferences, recognise the device or analyse how the site is used. Local identifiers (local storage, session storage) and similar technologies are also covered by this policy for transparency.

2. Types of cookies we use

• Strictly necessary cookies: essential for the site to function (e.g. security, load balancing, language preference). They do not require consent under applicable law.
• Functional cookies: allow us to remember choices (e.g. selected language) to improve your experience. The legal basis is legitimate interest or consent, depending on configuration.
• Analytics cookies: if used (e.g. anonymised statistics), they help us understand how the site is used without identifying individuals. They may require consent if not anonymised or if data is transferred to third countries.

Currently the site does not use third-party profiling or advertising cookies.

3. Duration and management

Cookies can be session-based (deleted when you close the browser) or persistent (stored for a set period). You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings; disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect some site features.

4. Legal basis and your rights

Cookies that are not strictly necessary are used on the basis of consent (recorded on first visit or via settings) or legitimate interest where permitted. You have the right to withdraw consent and to exercise the rights set out in our Privacy Policy (access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, complaint to a supervisory authority).
