1. Controller
The controller of this website is Baumaschinen Lettland SIA. For questions about cookies and personal data processing, write to info@bl.lv.
2. What cookies and local storage are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Local storage (localStorage) is a similar browser feature that lets a website keep information on your device. Session storage (sessionStorage) keeps information until the browser tab is closed. In this policy these technologies are referred to as cookies.
3. Necessary and optional cookies
Necessary cookies provide the basic operation of the website, such as remembering your cookie choice and administrator sign-in. They do not require consent. The website language is selected by the page address, not by a cookie.
Analytics cookies are optional. If Google Analytics is activated, it loads only after your consent. Before consent and after refusal, analytics is disabled. We do not use advertising or remarketing cookies.
4. Cookies used
| Name | Type | Purpose | Category | Retention |

| bl_cookie_consent | localStorage | Stores your cookie choice (consent to or refusal of analytics). | Necessary | 180 days |
| bl_cart_v1 | sessionStorage | Stores temporary cart product identifiers, catalog section and quantity. No customer contact details are stored. | Necessary | Until the browser tab is closed |
| bl_content_admin | HTTP cookie | Content administrator authentication. Set only after an administrator signs in. | Necessary | 8 hours |
| eitemSession | sessionStorage (elizings.org) | Session identifier of the leasing tool on product pages. | Functional (leasing tool) | Until the browser tab is closed |

| _ga_<ID> | HTTP cookie (Google Analytics 4) | Stores session state for statistics. | Analytics (with consent) | Up to 2 years |
The actual lifetime of Google Analytics cookies may be shorter depending on Google Analytics settings.
5. Google Analytics and data transfers
Google Analytics is provided by Google Ireland Limited. If you consent to analytics, information about your use of the website is sent to Google. Data may also be transferred outside the European Economic Area under the safeguards set by Google. More information: Google Privacy Policy and how Google uses cookies.
6. Embedded videos and the leasing tool
Some product descriptions may contain embedded YouTube videos (youtube-nocookie.com). When you open such a page or play a video, your browser may connect to Google servers. This processing is governed by Google policies.
External leasing tool
Product pages load the elizings.org leasing tool. While loading, your browser connects to this service and sends the address of the open page, the website language and a session identifier. The tool stores the identifier “eitemSession” in session storage. It is a service separate from Google Analytics; refusing analytics does not stop the leasing tool from loading. Before submitting a leasing application, read the provider's terms and data processing information.
7. Changing and withdrawing consent
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the “Cookie settings” link at the very end of this policy. Withdrawal stops further processing but does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
You can also delete cookies and site data in your browser settings (usually under “Privacy” or “Site data”). After deletion the website will ask for your choice again.
8. Your rights
You have the right to request access to your data, its correction or erasure, restriction of processing and to object to processing. Contact us: info@bl.lv. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Data State Inspectorate of Latvia: www.dvi.gov.lv.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. The current version and its date are always available on this page.
