Cookie Policy

How we use cookies and similar tracking technologies.

Last updated: October 8, 2026

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. We use essential cookies for account and security features and Google Analytics cookies to measure visits on eligible public pages.

2. Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function. They do not require your consent and cannot be disabled. They include session cookies for our secure client login area (/dashboard) and security tokens that prevent cross-site request forgery.

Analytics Cookies

  • _ga, _ga_* — Google Analytics 4. Tracks page views, session data, traffic source, and user behavior in aggregated form. Expires: 2 years.

3. Analytics Implementation

Google Analytics loads automatically on eligible public pages, subject to browser privacy controls:

  • Analytics is not loaded on login, dashboard, or sensitive checkout-return screens.
  • Page URLs and referrers sent in our analytics configuration exclude query strings and fragments.
  • Advertising storage, advertising personalization, and Google signals remain disabled.
  • Global Privacy Control keeps analytics off when enabled in your browser.

Deleting or blocking cookies does not automatically delete analytics data already received by Google.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Google may process analytics data on its systems under Google's Privacy Policy. Our analytics configuration does not grant advertising storage or personalization.

5. How to Control Cookies

You can manage cookies in several ways:

  • Browser settings: All modern browsers allow you to view, delete, and block cookies. Refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions.
  • Google Analytics opt-out: Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect website functionality, particularly the secure client dashboard.

6. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in technology or legal requirements. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will reflect any revisions. Contact hello@adatekagency.com with any questions.
