Cookie policy
Which cookies and similar technologies bcf-software.com uses, why, for how long, and how to change your choice. Last updated: 15 October 2026.
What this policy covers
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. The browser's local storage and session storage work in a similar way. Below we list everything this website stores on your device or reads from it, whether it is a cookie or not.
Without your consent we store only what is strictly necessary for the website to work as you expect, such as your cookie choice. Everything else needs your consent: Art. 399 of the Polish Electronic Communications Law (Prawo komunikacji elektronicznej), which implements Art. 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive, and Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. The controller is BCF Software Sp. z o.o., ul. Technologiczna 2, 45-837 Opole, Poland.
Strictly necessary
Always active, because the website cannot remember your choice or display correctly without them.

Analytics and marketing (only with your consent)
Active only after you click “Accept”. Until then nothing in this group is stored, and only the Google tag for Google Ads is loaded, with every consent signal denied.
Apart from the Google tag for Google Ads, none of these tools is loaded before you accept; until then that tag sets no cookies and sends Google only cookieless signals. In October 2026 we added Google Analytics, Google Ads, the Meta Pixel and the LinkedIn Insight Tag to this list, so everyone who had accepted before is asked again. Before we turn on any further tool, we will add it here and ask for your consent again.

What is not stored on your device
- Nearest office on the map: our server estimates it from your IP address, without any cookie or browser storage. Details are in the privacy policy.
- The map is loaded from OpenFreeMap, which sets no cookies. If you click an office pin, Google Maps opens in a new tab and Google's own cookie rules apply there.
Changing or withdrawing your choice
Use “Cookie settings” at the bottom of every page to open the banner again. Refusing is as easy as accepting: “Necessary only” sits next to “Accept”. If you withdraw consent, we delete the stored attribution data and the cookies these tools set on bcf-software.com, and the page reloads without Google Tag Manager. Cookies on the providers' own domains (google.com, doubleclick.net, facebook.com, linkedin.com) can be deleted in your browser settings. Your choice applies to every page and language version of bcf-software.com.
You can also delete stored data and block cookies in your browser settings; the banner will then ask for your choice again. Questions: contact@bcf-software.pl. How we process personal data is described in the privacy policy.
