1. What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on a visitor’s device (computer, smartphone, tablet) by a website. Cookies allow a website to recognise returning visitors and remember certain settings.
Cookies alone cannot identify a visitor by name. Where data stored in or linkable to cookies renders a visitor identifiable, Processing falls within the scope of the GDPR’s provisions on Personal Data.
Under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive and Section 155 Eht., a cookie may only be placed on a visitor’s device with their prior, informed consent, unless the cookie is strictly necessary for the transmission of a communication over an electronic communications network, or is strictly necessary for the provider to supply an information society service explicitly requested by the user.
2. Cookies used on this website
2.1 Necessary cookies
Necessary cookies are essential to the basic operation of the website. Their placement does not require the visitor’s prior consent. The summotive.com website uses only the following necessary cookie:
| Cookie name | Set by | Purpose | Legal basis | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|---|
cc_cookie | summotive.com | Stores the visitor’s cookie consent preferences to fulfil the Controller’s transparency obligation and to maintain a record of consent | Article 6(1)(c) and (f) GDPR; Section 155(2) Eht. | 12 months |
The cc_cookie is set by the open-source vanilla-cookieconsent library. It stores only the visitor’s consent decision and a timestamp; it is not transmitted to third parties and is not used for marketing or profiling purposes.
2.2 Analytics and marketing cookies
The Controller does not currently use any analytics, tracking or marketing cookies on summotive.com (including, without limitation, Google Analytics or any similar tool).
Should this change in the future, this policy will be updated accordingly and the visitor’s prior, freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous consent will be sought, in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and EDPB Guidelines 05/2020.
2.3 External links: Calendly
The “Book a call” link on the website opens the external Calendly scheduling platform in a new browser tab (calendly.com/summotive-info/30min). This link is not an embedded iframe; the Calendly platform is not loaded within the summotive.com domain.
As a result:
- Calendly places no cookies on the summotive.com domain;
- any cookies set by Calendly apply solely on the calendly.com domain and are governed exclusively by Calendly’s own cookie and privacy notice (calendly.com/privacy);
- the Controller has no control over and bears no responsibility for cookies placed by Calendly.
3. Consent principles
The Controller, where consent is required (for any non-necessary cookies), will only rely on consent that meets the requirements of Article 7 GDPR and EDPB Guidelines 05/2020. Specifically:
- Prior, opt-in consent: cookies are placed only after the visitor has actively given consent; no pre-ticked boxes are used.
- Granularity: each cookie category may be accepted or rejected independently.
- Informed consent: the visitor receives clear and plain information before giving consent.
- Easy withdrawal: withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it (Article 7(3) GDPR).
- No cookie walls: refusing non-necessary cookies does not restrict access to any core functionality of the website.
- No deceptive design patterns: the Controller does not use deceptive, coercive or manipulative user interface design to obtain consent (EDPB Guidelines 03/2022). Prohibited practices include, in particular: misleading visual emphasis, asymmetric styling of accept/reject buttons, deliberate confusion, and making refusal harder than acceptance.
4. Withdrawing consent and changing preferences
The visitor may change their cookie preferences at any time:
- by deleting the
cc_cookiebrowser cookie (the consent banner will reappear on the next visit); - through their browser settings as described in Section 5 below.
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of Processing carried out before withdrawal (Article 7(3) GDPR).
5. Managing cookies through browser settings
Cookies may also be managed, disabled or deleted through the visitor’s browser settings. Guidance for the main browsers:
Please note that disabling certain cookies through browser settings may affect the functionality of the website.
6. Data subject rights and remedies
In connection with Processing carried out through cookies, Data Subjects have the rights set out in Chapter III GDPR (access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection), which are described in full in the Controller’s Privacy Policy.
The Data Subject has the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Pursuant to Article 77(1) GDPR, a complaint may be lodged with the supervisory authority of the Data Subject’s habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement - the Data Subject is therefore not limited to the Hungarian authority.
Competent Hungarian supervisory authority:
