2. What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file a website stores on your browser. Local storage is data kept in the browser for a similar purpose. Both are covered here. We do not store non-essential items before you agree.
3. What we use
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| TOVCELLSESS | Necessary | Keeps a secure session, limits inquiry abuse, and recognizes an admin sign-in. | Until the browser is closed |
| tc-consent | Necessary | Remembers whether you accepted or rejected cookies. Without it, the notice would return on every page. | 6 months |
| tc-lang | Preferences | Remembers Korean or English in this browser. Stored only if you allow preference cookies. | Until you clear it or change your choice |
We do not use analytics, advertising, or social-media tracking cookies, and no third party sets advertising cookies through this site.
4. Font requests
Pretendard, the Korean typeface, is served from our own server. Sora, the Latin typeface, is loaded from Google Fonts, so your IP address may be sent to Google when a page opens. That is a font request, not a cookie we set.
The office map on the About page is shown with Google Maps. Viewing it may send your IP address to Google and allow Google to store cookies.
5. Your choices
On your first visit you can accept all, reject optional cookies, or open settings. Preference cookies are off until you opt in. Rejecting them does not block the site; we simply do not remember your language. Use Cookie settings in the footer to change this later. You can also delete cookies and site data in your browser.
6. Legal basis
Necessary cookies are required to provide the site and keep it secure, and fall under the ePrivacy exemption. Preference cookies rely on your consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)). You can withdraw that consent at any time from the footer notice. Withdrawal does not affect processing that happened before it.
7. Your rights and complaints
If you are in the EEA you may ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, or portability once we confirm your identity. In Korea you may request access, correction, deletion, or suspension under the Personal Information Protection Act. Write to paul@tovcell.com. You will not be disadvantaged for exercising these rights.
In the EEA you may lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority where you live. In Estonia that authority is the Andmekaitse Inspektsioon (www.aki.ee). In Korea you may contact the Personal Information Protection Commission (privacy.go.kr) or the privacy call centre on 118.
This policy applies from 11 November 2026. If we change it, we will post the new version here and ask again when the change affects your choice.
