Cookie Policy
The official website of the Commissioner for Information of Public Importance and Personal Data Protection (hereinafter: the “Commissioner”), available at the domain poverenik.rs, uses exclusively strictly necessary technical cookies to ensure the secure, stable, and functional operation of the website.
As an independent public authority responsible for safeguarding the right to privacy and personal data protection, the Commissioner applies the principle of data minimisation. Our website does not use cookies for marketing purposes, profiling, behavioural tracking, or third-party analytics (such as Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or similar technologies).

2. Types of Cookies We Use

This approach eliminates the possibility of unauthorised tracking of website visitors by commercial third parties.
