1. In short
szilaghi.com does not use advertising, social-media or cross-site tracking cookies. We use one optional service, Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to measure how the site is used. It is on by default: the cookie banner asks whether to keep it on, and if you click No (or later turn it off through Cookie settings) we stop analytics measurement and delete the Google Analytics cookies from your browser.
2. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files a website stores in your browser. Similar technologies include local storage and tracking pixels. They can be strictly necessary (for example to keep you logged in or secure a form) or optional (for example analytics or advertising).

sz_push*, sz_pv | Local storage (functional) | Remembers whether you subscribed to notifications, or chose “Not now” (so we wait 30 days before asking again), and counts page views so the offer is shown sooner to returning visitors. A service worker (/sw.js) is installed only if you turn notifications on; details in our Privacy Policy | Until you clear site data; “Not now” for 30 days | No (nothing is sent to us unless you subscribe) |
| Website analytics (Matomo, self-hosted) | Cookieless measurement | Aggregate visit statistics, run on our own hosting, with IP addresses anonymized; no data shared with third parties | No cookie stored | No |
Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager are provided by Google Ireland Limited, acting as our processor. Data may be transferred to Google LLC in the United States, which is certified under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework (Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/1795). Google states how it uses the data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Links to WhatsApp, Telegram, LinkedIn or Facebook take you to those services; their own cookie policies apply once you are on their sites.
4. Your choice and how to change it
Choosing Yes or No is equally easy, and switching analytics off does not limit your use of the site. You can change your mind at any time through the Cookie settings link in the footer of every page; if you switch analytics off we stop Google Analytics measurement and delete its cookies from your browser. We ask again after 6 months. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.
5. Changes
If we add other optional cookies or third-party tools, we will update this policy first.
