Russia's closure of a route to the Sea of Azov has raised concerns about the potential impact on grain exports. This development could have significant implications for global food supply chains, particularly for countries reliant on grain shipments from the region.

The article also includes a detailed explanation of advertising options for readers of the iDNES.cz platform. Users are presented with choices regarding how they wish to view content, specifically concerning the display of advertisements. The platform outlines two primary options: a premium subscription that offers an ad-free experience across its network of sites, including iDNES.cz, Lidovky.cz, Expres.cz, and Antiyoutuber.cz, along with digital access to newspapers and magazines.

The alternative option involves consenting to targeted advertising. This choice allows users to continue accessing content without a subscription fee, but their browsing habits and interests, derived from online activity and cookies, will be used to personalize the advertisements they see. The platform states that both MAFRA, a.s., and its 125 advertising partners will utilize this data for targeted ads. Users can revoke their consent at any time, though doing so will prompt them to switch to the ad-free premium service.

Furthermore, the article specifies that certain data processing, beyond targeted advertising, may occur based on legitimate interest. Users have the ability to object to this processing and adjust their privacy settings. The platform emphasizes that the chosen settings will apply to iDNES.cz, Lidovky.cz, Expres.cz, and Antiyoutuber.cz. The processing of data for various purposes, including ad selection, personalized content, audience measurement, and service development, is detailed, with a note that technical reasons may necessitate opting out of certain data uses even when choosing the ad-supported free option.
