Cookie Policy
What cookies and similar technologies Artidal uses, the categories they fall into, how long they last, and how you can control your choices.
This Cookie Policy explains how Artidal OÜ uses cookies and similar technologies on www.artidal.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy. We use these technologies in line with the GDPR and the EU ePrivacy rules, which require your consent for any cookie that is not strictly necessary.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They let a site work, remember your preferences, and understand how it is used. We also use similar technologies — such as browser local storage and pixels — which we refer to collectively as "cookies" in this policy.
2. Categories of cookies we use
We group cookies into the categories below. Only strictly necessary cookies are set automatically; all others are set only after you give consent through our cookie banner.
- Strictly necessary — required for the website to function and to remember your cookie choices. These cannot be switched off and do not require consent.
- Functional — remember choices you make (such as language) to improve your experience.
- Analytics and performance — help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. We use Vercel Speed Insights, which measures page performance in aggregate and sets no cookies. If you accept, we also load Google Analytics through Google Tag Manager, which sets cookies to count visits and understand how the site is used. If you decline, Google Analytics is never loaded.
- Marketing — used to measure and improve advertising and to understand campaign performance. If you accept, we load the Meta (Facebook) Pixel through Google Tag Manager. It sets a cookie called _fbp, which Meta uses to measure our advertising and to recognise your browser on later visits. If you decline, or simply close the banner, it is never loaded and no such cookie is set.
3. Cookies we set
Nothing is stored on your device until you choose. If you decline, or ignore the banner, this website loads no third-party scripts and sets no cookies at all. If you accept, Google Tag Manager loads and the technologies below are used.
- Vercel Speed Insights — measures page loading performance in aggregate. It sets no cookie and stores nothing on your device, so there is nothing to consent to and nothing to delete.
- artidal_cookie_consent — stored by this website in your browser's local storage, not as a cookie. It records whether you accepted or declined non-essential cookies so that you are not asked again. It stays until you clear your browser storage, and it is never sent to us or to anyone else.
- _fbp — set by Meta when the Meta Pixel loads, which only happens if you accept. Category: marketing. Duration: 90 days. It is used by Meta to measure our advertising and to recognise your browser across visits.
- _ga and _ga_R0PSXZ98PN — set by Google Analytics when you accept. Category: analytics. Duration: 2 years. They distinguish one visitor from another and keep track of a visit, so we can see how many people use the site and which pages they read.
4. Managing your choices
When you first visit www.artidal.com, our cookie banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time by reopening the cookie settings on our site or by clearing cookies in your browser.
Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies through their settings, and let you enable a "Do Not Track" signal. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site from working.
5. Changes and contact
We may update this Cookie Policy as our site or the technologies we use change. The "last updated" date above shows when it last changed. For any question about cookies, contact privacy@artidal.com.
