Cookies are small text files stored by the browser on your device when you visit a website. They are used to ensure the website works or to remember user preferences.
| Name | Type | Validity | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
PHPSESSID |
Session (technical) | 30 days | Holds the cart contents and applied discount coupon until the order is completed and protects the contact form against spam (limiting the number of submissions). It is created only when an item is added to the cart or a form is submitted, not during normal browsing of the website. |
chost_consent |
Cookie (first-party, technical) | 1 year | Remembers your choice in the cookie bar: all (partner cookie enabled), or necessary (only necessary cookies, the partner cookie is not stored). Domain .chost.cz, Secure, SameSite=Lax flags. |
gdpr_notice_v2 |
localStorage (technical) | Persistent (localStorage) | A backup copy of the choice from the cookie bar in the browser's localStorage (the same values as chost_consent). A previous choice stored only here is carried over into the cookie on the next visit chost_consent. |
chost_ref |
Cookie (own, marketing – partner program) | 90 days | Remembers the partner code through whose link you came to the website (chost.cz/KOD), so that your referral can be assigned to the partner and a discount applied to the first order if you register. Only the code itself is stored, no profile or browsing history. It is set only if you arrive via a partner link and have not declined it in the cookie bar. Domain .chost.cz (also applies to klient.chost.cz), flags Secure, HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax. Details: Partner Program Terms. |
This website does not use advertising or third-party analytics or tracking. We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any other third-party tools to track user behavior, and we do not pass data to advertising networks. We measure traffic with our own tool, which does not use cookies or any other storage on your device and whose data we do not share with anyone; the scope, purpose, and retention period are described in the Privacy Policy, item 2.5.
The only cookie beyond the technical operation of the website is our own partner (affiliate) cookie chost_ref; by its nature it is a marketing cookie, not a technically necessary one. Used to record referrals in the partner program (so-called affiliate attribution) – so that the reward can be granted to the partner and the discount to you. It is stored only if you yourself open a partner link in the form chost.cz/KOD; it is not created at all during a normal visit to the website and we share it with nobody else (it is a first-party cookie on the domain .chost.cz). If you don't want it, choose "Reject" in the cookie bar (or don't allow the partner cookie under "Optional"): we will delete the cookie and it will not be stored again the next time a partner link is opened; the choice is valid for 1 year. You can also delete it at any time in your browser settings. The website works without it; the partner coupon is then prefilled only in a cart you already have in progress (otherwise you can enter it yourself in the cart), and the referral is not assigned to the partner upon registration.
When a partner link is opened, we record on the server (even if the cookie is declined) a click record without direct identifiers (an irreversible fingerprint of the IP address and browser, the target page, the referring domain). We process this server record on the basis of a legitimate interest in operating the program and protecting it from abuse, and we delete it after no more than 12 months. Details are in the Privacy Policy, point 2.4.
In exceptional cases (Cloudflare Bot Management, Turnstile), the Cloudflare network may temporarily set its own technical cookies to protect the infrastructure. These cookies are not under the control of CHOST.cz. More at Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
You can manage or delete cookies in your browser in the browser settings:
Blocking technical cookies may break the cart and the contact form. You change your choice in the cookie bar by deleting the cookie in your browser chost_consent for the chost.cz domain (and possibly the website data in localStorage); the bar will then be displayed again.
The processing of cookies is governed by:
