1. What Are Markers?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. In this nursery, they act like temporary plant tags: they help the Site remember language and consent. Cookies can be "persistent" (stored until expiry or deletion) or "session" (deleted when you close your browser).

2. Markers We Use

2.1 Strictly Necessary Markers

These markers are essential for the Site to function properly. They cannot be disabled.

2.2 Functional Markers

These markers enhance the functionality of the Site by remembering your preferences.
