1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies (local storage, pixels, tags) work in comparable ways. They help websites function, remember preferences and understand usage.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies to operate the Service securely, remember your settings, and — only with your consent — to measure usage and support marketing.
3. Categories of Cookies
- Strictly necessary — required for the Service to work (authentication/session, security/CSRF, load balancing, and your cookie-consent choice). These cannot be switched off.
- Functional — remember preferences such as language or interface settings.
- Analytics — help us understand how the Service is used (e.g. Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity, Hotjar). Loaded only with consent.
- Marketing — measure campaigns and reach (e.g. Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel). Loaded only with consent.
4. Examples of Cookies We May Set
- Session cookie — keeps you signed in (strictly necessary).
- CSRF token — protects forms against cross-site request forgery (strictly necessary).
- pp_cookie_consent — stores your cookie-consent choice for up to 1 year (strictly necessary).
- Analytics/marketing identifiers — set by third-party tools listed above, only after consent.
5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by third parties (e.g. analytics or marketing providers). Their use of data is governed by their own privacy policies.
6. Managing Your Consent
When cookie consent is enabled, a banner lets you accept or reject non-essential cookies. Non-essential technologies load only after you accept. You can change your decision at any time by clearing the pp_cookie_consent cookie or adjusting your browser settings.
7. Browser Controls
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the Service from working.
8. Changes
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies evolves. The "Last updated" date reflects the latest revision. See also our Privacy Policy.
