What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make sites work more efficiently, remember preferences, and understand how visitors move through content. Similar technologies include:
- Local storage and session storage in your browser for persisting data across sessions or pages.
- Pixels or tags embedded in pages or emails that load small requests to a server when displayed.
- Scripts that set identifiers or read information already stored locally.
Cookies may be first-party (set by us) or third-party (set by another domain, such as an analytics or advertising partner when you consent).
Understanding how technologies are used helps you make informed choices about optional analytics and marketing features that are not required for basic site delivery.
Data controller
The controller responsible for processing personal data in connection with first-party cookies and similar technologies on this site is:
Sraxylonshrixxen, Mannerheimintie 96, 00250 Helsinki, Finland. Email: callback@sraxylonshrixxen.world. Phone: +358 9 425 77200.
Third-party providers that set cookies when you consent act as separate controllers or processors under their own terms; see their privacy notices for details.
How we obtain and record consent
When you first visit, you see a banner that lets you accept all optional cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or open cookie settings to choose analytics and marketing individually. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent under the ePrivacy Directive’s implementation because they are essential to provide the service you actively request.
We store your consent choice, where technically feasible, using a cookie or local storage entry so that the banner does not repeatedly interrupt browsing on the same device and browser. You may change your mind at any time through the cookie settings link in the footer or by clearing site data in your browser.
Withdrawal applies prospectively. It does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal. Some third-party cookies may persist until they expire; you can remove them manually through browser tools or vendor opt-out pages where available.
Cookie categories we use
Strictly necessary
These technologies are required for core functions such as:
- Remembering your cookie consent state and preferences.
- Maintaining security and integrity of sessions.
- Load balancing and traffic management on infrastructure.
- Detecting and mitigating attacks or abuse.
Because they are essential, you cannot disable them through our banner without affecting site operation. Legal basis: legitimate interests in providing a secure, functional website, and, where applicable, performing a contract with you.
Analytics
If you enable analytics, we may use cookies or similar technologies to collect pseudonymous information about how visitors use the site—including pages viewed, approximate region, device category, browser language, and performance metrics. The purpose is to understand which content is useful and to improve structure and performance. Legal basis: consent under GDPR and ePrivacy where required.
Marketing
If you enable marketing cookies, partners may set cookies to measure campaign delivery, attribute visits, cap how often you see an advertisement, or personalise promotional content on other sites you visit. Legal basis: consent. You can withdraw consent at any time through the cookie settings or browser controls.
Google advertising and measurement technologies
When you consent to marketing and/or analytics cookies, tags from Google (and potentially similar vendors) may load. Depending on configuration, this can include technologies used for Google Ads conversion tracking, remarketing or similar audience features, and Google Analytics measurement. These technologies may read or set identifiers, send event data to Google, and help us understand whether ads led to visits or actions on this site.
Google publishes its own information about cookies and advertising: see How Google uses cookies in advertising and Google’s Privacy Policy. In the European Economic Area (including Finland), use of such technologies for personalised ads generally requires valid consent under the ePrivacy rules and must align with the GDPR.
You remain in control: use our cookie banner and settings, adjust preferences in your Google account, visit Google Ads Settings, or clear cookies in your browser.
Storage duration
Session cookies expire when you close the browser. Persistent cookies remain for a defined period. Typical ranges include:
- Strictly necessary: from the session up to twelve months for preference storage, depending on implementation.
- Analytics: often between thirteen and thirty-eight months for pseudonymous identifiers, depending on vendor configuration and your choices.
- Marketing: commonly between a few days and thirteen months depending on campaign configuration and partner policies.
Exact durations may evolve with vendor updates; we will reflect material changes in this policy or in the consent tool where feasible.
Third-party providers
When you consent to optional categories, third parties may process data under their own policies. We select vendors that commit to GDPR-aligned terms where they act as processors or joint controllers as applicable. You may request an up-to-date list of specific tools in use by contacting us.
We review vendor documentation periodically and terminate relationships that no longer meet our security and privacy expectations.
Browser and device controls
You can delete or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may degrade site functionality. Many browsers offer:
- Global or site-specific cookie deletion.
- Third-party cookie blocking.
- Private or incognito modes that limit persistence after the session ends.
Industry opt-out pages exist for certain advertising networks; effectiveness varies by region and technology.
Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track
Some browsers transmit signals such as Global Privacy Control (GPC) or legacy Do Not Track headers. Where we can reliably recognise such signals and they are consistent with applicable law, we treat them as part of our consent management approach alongside other settings. Not all browsers implement these signals uniformly.
Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may revise this Cookie Policy when our practices, legal requirements, or vendor landscape changes. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised date. Material changes may be highlighted on the site where appropriate.
