Cookie Policy
This cookie policy explains which cookies and similar technologies we use on www.taxi-belvedere.at, what they are for and how you can give or withdraw your consent.
Contents (7)
Cookies and similar identifiers are small sets of data stored in the browser that help us to provide the website according to the purposes described. Some of these purposes require your consent. Where the use of cookies is based on consent, you can withdraw it at any time by following the instructions in this document.
1. Strictly necessary cookies and storage
This website uses a session cookie (BVSESSID) only on the pages with a form: in the booking steps, in the request and contact forms and under “My booking”. It keeps your entries during the session and protects the forms against misuse. No session cookie is set on any other page.
Your choice in the cookie banner is stored in your browser’s local storage under the key bcs_consent. This entry only records whether you have allowed analytics and marketing cookies and when you made the choice. It is not transmitted to us.
No consent is required for these necessary storage operations (§ 165(3) of the Austrian Telecommunications Act 2021, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Address suggestions (Google Maps Platform): when an address field receives input focus (by tapping, clicking or using the Tab key), your browser loads the address suggestions from Google (see point 4). Nothing is loaded from Google for this beforehand. We do not set any cookies ourselves for this. Google may use technically necessary storage in your browser, such as cookies or local storage, so that the suggestions work. Which ones is determined by Google; they are therefore not listed in the table under point 3.
2. Analytics and marketing cookies with your consent only
Analytics and marketing cookies are set only once you have chosen “Accept all” in the cookie banner. Until then the Google Analytics and Google Ads scripts are not loaded; we use Google Consent Mode v2, which sets both services to “denied” by default.
If you choose “Essential only”, only the storage operations described under point 1 take place. You can adjust or withdraw your choice at any time via change cookie settings; the banner then appears again. Withdrawal applies to the future. Google cookies that have already been set should additionally be deleted in your browser (see point 5).
3. Overview of all cookies
The following table lists all cookies and storage entries this website may set. Google Analytics and Google Ads cookies appear only after you have given your consent. Any storage Google may use for the address suggestions is determined by Google itself (see point 1).
