Personal Data Processing Policy

This page explains what data the website lidia-ballakh.com receives from visitors, how we use it and which cookies are needed for that. Last updated on 3 October 2026.

1. Personal data

By sending a request through the website you agree that ООО «Архитектурная мастерская Лидии Баллах» (Architectural Studio of Lidia Ballakh, INN 7840442511, OGRN 1107847397932, legal address: 191024, Perekuploy pereulok 12/13, litera A, apt. 16, Saint Petersburg, Russia) processes the personal data you enter in the form: your name, phone number, e-mail address and the text of your message.

The data is used only to process your request, prepare an answer, agree the terms of work and stay in touch with you. We do not pass personal data to third parties except in the cases provided for by the legislation of the Russian Federation.

Processing is carried out with organisational and technical protection measures. The consent is valid until the purposes of processing are achieved or until it is withdrawn. To withdraw your consent or ask a question about data processing, write to mail@lidia-ballakh.com or call +7 (962) 707-00-28.

2. Cookies

Cookies are small files the browser stores on your device when you visit the website. They are needed for the website to work properly, and statistics help us understand which materials are useful to visitors.

Essential cookies

These files are required for the website to work. They do not collect any data about you and are not passed to advertising networks.

  • PHPSESSID – the session identifier: it keeps the website forms working.
  • lb_cookie_consent – remembers your choice in the cookie panel, so we do not ask again. Stored for 12 months.

If you choose «Essential only», the website still works in full: only the technical files listed above remain.

Analytics cookies

They are enabled only after you press “Accept” and help us understand which pages and works are of interest to visitors:

  • _ym_uid, _ym_d, _ym_isad, _ym_visorc – Yandex.Metrica, counter 50188840.

While there is no consent, the counter is not loaded and Yandex.Metrica receives no data about your visit.

How to change or withdraw your decision

Press the button – your choice is reset, the analytics cookies are removed and the cookie panel appears again:

Cookies can also be disabled in your browser settings. In that case the website keeps working, but some features (for example, sending the form) may become unavailable.

Third-party services

The «Contact» page shows a map provided by Yandex.Maps. The map is loaded directly from the Yandex service, so Yandex may set its own cookies regardless of our analytics consent. Requests can be sent without the map as well. Website fonts are loaded from the Google Fonts server and no data about your visit is stored.
