Cookie Policy

2026.3 ·

I. What cookies are

I.1

Cookies are small text files that the gara-nord.md website stores on your device. Alongside them we use equivalent technologies — "localStorage", "sessionStorage" and similar identifiers — to which the same rules in this Policy apply.

I.2

This Policy supplements „GARA NORD” S.R.L.'s Privacy Policy and is to be read together with it.

II. The categories we use

II.1

We use the following categories:

II.2
  • strictly necessary — the session ("client_session") and its mirror indicating that a session exists ("has_session"), the visitor identifier ("visitor_id"), the display language ("NEXT_LOCALE") and your answer to the cookie question ("consent"), plus, in the browser's storage, the account you are signed in with, the order you are filling in — including the passengers' names, phone numbers and email addresses — and, for the page of the order you have just placed, the payment method you chose and whether you were signed in; without them we cannot respond to your requests to the site, and refusing them is not possible.
  • preferences — the currency you see prices in ("currency"), if you chose one other than the default, and, in the browser's local storage, your last search (from where and to where), so that it is filled in next time; written only with your consent and deleted when you withdraw it.
  • analytics — statistics about how the site is used, used to improve it; activated only with your consent.
II.3

The rules of this Policy apply to any technology that writes to your browser, not only to cookies: the analytics and marketing tools, where we use them, write cookies or data to the browser's local memory ("localStorage") and are subject to the same consent gate. Alongside them, the site keeps in the tab's memory ("sessionStorage"), until the tab is closed, which event has already been counted, so that reloading the page does not count it a second time.

III. How long we keep it

III.1

Retention periods differ by category:

III.2
  • strictly necessary — the session ("client_session") is kept for 30 days from sign-in or until you sign out; its mirror ("has_session") and the display language ("NEXT_LOCALE"), until the browser is closed; the visitor identifier ("visitor_id"), for one year, and it is sent to the server with every request to the API; your answer about cookies ("consent"), for six months; the account you are signed in with, until you sign out; the order in progress, with the passengers' details, and the payment method of the order you have just placed, until the tab is closed.
  • preferences — the chosen currency ("currency") is kept for one year, and the last search until the next one replaces it; both at most until consent is withdrawn.
  • analytics, our own statistics — the identifier in the browser's local memory ("rybbit-visitor-id") is kept until consent is withdrawn.

IV. Third-party cookies

IV.1

Our own statistics run on our platform's server: their data does not go to a third party.

IV.2

We do not use behavioural advertising cookies and we do not sell data collected through cookies.

V. Consent and withdrawing it

V.1

Cookies and equivalent technologies that are not strictly necessary are activated only with your consent, separately for each category. Until you grant it for a category, its tools are not loaded on the page and collect nothing.

V.2

You can withdraw your consent at any time, from the cookie button in the footer of every page. Withdrawing it stops collection going forward and does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before it: we delete from the browser what the withdrawn categories wrote and reload the page, so that no tool loaded earlier keeps running. Clearing the site's browser data also withdraws consent and, with it, deletes your saved preferences.

VI. Changes, contact and version

VI.1

VI.2

This Policy is drafted in Romanian and translated into other languages for your convenience. In case of discrepancy between language versions, the Romanian version prevails.
